Luckily, most of my must-have Jasons have been released, but here's hoping that either Part 7 can still get made soon or that NECA will get their asses to work on one after the lawsuit FINALLY gets resolved...whenever the fuck that will be. Ideally, I'd love to have the entire Jason roster completed by NECA one day, which Randy has said is the goal.

And yeah, this lawsuit has also totally fucked the videogame. Lots of in-work content had to be ditched. The selfishness of Sean Cunningham is really screwing over the fans.

It's a lot more messy than that. Victor Miller wants complete ownership of the 1st film, which, if granted, causes a ripple effect of what he actually owns. Meaning that Jason Voorhees would essentially be split between two entities. Doomsday scenario is that Paramount can use the character concepts after the first film, but loses the Jason name, the movie title, and the backstory. A deal will be struck eventually, but they gotta throw cash around, which they haven't been willing to do.

So if Cunningham loses, Paramount will have to license those rights from Miller. If Cunningham wins, Miller loses his rights to the film.
