r/saw

Just finished Saw X and I'm now starting to think Carlos will be the one to take over Johns legacy. He didn't seem overly phased by seeing so much death and destruction around him, and John saved him because he was never meant to be a part of the games and gave him a stash full of cash so I think that alone is reason for him to come back in future films as the new Jigsaw killer. Surely seeing something that sadistic and dramatic as a young boy will warp anyones mind and he may come back to avenge Kramer after he finds out about his death. I know Cecilia was supposedly making a return but if they've planned on making her the new Jigsaw it'll just ruin the whole premise of the films in my opinion. She's not likeable as a character and I genuinely hope the bitch burnt or starved to death at some point, I don't mind if they bring her back just to show her demise but some revenge story or her being the protagonist doesn't make any sense to me.

I saw this theory floating around and wanted to know all your opinions on it.
These are the reasons he’s supposed to be alive.

The bag: Amanda suffocated Adam for 35, which can knock someone out, it takes 3 mins for brain damage to occur and 5 to kill Amanda: Amanda failed to check if detective Matthews was alive after she “killed” him, same with Adam

The Corpse: Returning to the crime scene, the schalke moves ankles on Adam’s foot, 2 times,which would be a weird production mistake to happen twice In saw 3, when referring to this mistake, John says “mistakes” implying she had done the same thing before

Photos: John has many photographs taken by sketchy photographers, needed for him to kidnap people for his games, Adam down the same thing, it’s possible he was just testing him.

This, and the fact almost any unconfirmed death in saw always returns, like deftige Mathews makes for a fitting theory I want talks thoughts on.

Just rewatched the entire franchise, now on Saw X. It's the first time in all the movies that I can actually see how John sees, feel how he feels. I feel incredibly sorry for him seeing that hope in his eyes just fade away as he realises he has been duped and I think he is incredibly justified in getting his own back on the lot of them. I absolutely love these movies and think it's one of the best made film legacies of all time! Well done to the writers, it truly is a masterpiece! Although Spiral shpuldn't have even been made in my opinion, unless it's to do with Kramer, I ain't interested! Hope they make another one somehow one day! Don't think there will ever be another horror franchise that will top this one 👌

Why were the victims chosen by Jigsaw if most of them were framed by Eric and had already served their sentences? Unless I missed something, aside from Obi (who we know abducted Laura), the others had already done their time and were technically innocent until proven guilty regarding the crimes Eric pinned on them. Was Jigsaw simply targeting them because he believed they were wasting their lives after prison, regardless of whether they were actually guilty? Or is there another explanation in the movie that I overlooked?

Since Amanda’s timer didn’t start until she stood up, could she have stayed seated until Donnie woke up, explained the situation to him (can you speak at all with the RBT on? or maybe if she just freed her hands she could mime to him), and have him throw up the key? Or, if that didn’t work, wait until he pooped it out? It might take a while, but nobody would have to die

It makes sense that it happened the way it did since she was (understandably) panicking, but I’ve been wondering if it was a secret third possibility
