false, did not take place in Jersey. when they stopped to get gas, they were bitching because one of them had to pump it. It took place in Florida. The characters were from NJ though, they had NJ plates on their Escalade :lol:

no your false!!! lol you can wiki it , its w.e i dont care lol

thats pretty creative reasoning though," because they had to pump the gas", it is just a movie though im pretty sure john corzine is not going to fine the producers for inacuratly portraying gas pump laws in NJ , killing people with machetes is illegal and they still did it lol

BTW the movie TAKES place in NJ
It was ACTUALLY filmed in Texas,
The original 1980 was filmed in blairstown nj ,

please dnt ask me how i no this dumb stuff lol

turned out to be better then I was expecting from a remake.

can you point me to a source that says it takes place in NJ, I cant seem to find one. wiki doesnt say it takes place in NJ as far as I can tell, unless I'm looking at the wrong page.

i you want anymore let me know!

just wondering IAN where does "Jason Takes Manhattan" take place????

LA , or boston?? lol

only the first one shows any info, but it just says where the first one was filmed. it doesnt say where the newest one supposedly takes place.

Gee, I wonder :roll:

I just want to know where you read/heard that the newest release of Friday the 13th took place in NJ. If it did, I want to know so I dont go spouting off misinformation anymore. you dont have to be a jerk about it.

saw it last nite...and was very entertained the whole way through...i had heard it was going to be a melting pot of parts 1, 2, and 3...and i can definately agree, thats what is was. key elements from parts 1-3 were observed, without 'remaking' scenes scene for scene... I love the fact that they made this Jason similar to the earlier movies, where he was an agressive, running, hunter, as opposed to a hulking, zombie in the later ones (though both versions are cool)... definately a throw back film that takes you back to the hay-day of horror in the 80s...great to see Jason back on the big screen!

was worth the wait !!! go see it!

i dont care either way it was a good movie, i was just joking around with ya on the other stuff

yeah geez guys...no need to fight over a horror movie, lol

does anyone know where in the lake was in the original movie..is that blairstown too? i know there diner form the original is in that area as well...anyone clarify?

was thinking maybe a day trip down there once it warms up..

the 1980 was filmed in and around blairstown nj and at a boyscout camp called like nocopoco of something

NoBeBoSco. I stayed at the cabin on the lake once, that was an awesome trip

yeah thats the name , you can visit there during off season to see where jason was filmed, i think its a boyscout camp or something

:nod: it's a boy scout camp, that's where BoSco comes in lol
idk about being allowed in on the off season but I know my ex's brother used to go and throw people out every friday 13th. it's private property

yeah i went on there website or somewhere in reguards to visiting based on FT13th and it said to call and ask , because if you did go up there they would just ask you to leave. i want to at least go to the diner that would be a cool little trip

FRIDAY THE 13TH was AWESSSOMMMMMMEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!! Saw it twice already, once on opening night and again last nite and I'm not done yet. I loved it. The movie does take place in New Jersey even though it wasn't filmed here in the Garden State. All of the cars have New Jersey license plates in the movie, even the cop car. Also, in the boat scene, take a look at the boat, the VIN or identification number on the side of the boat starts with the letters NJ. My friend went to Camp Crystal Lake in New Jersey where the movie is based and they have a Jason Hockey Mask there and all information about the original movie. Jason's last name is Voorhees, which is ironically a town in New Jersey. Loved the movie, can't wait to see it again. -Jeff.

thanks for the info.

Stroked355 - where is this location you speak of with the Jason Mask being posted with info on the movie? that is something I would love to check out being a huge fan of the series...can you let me know?

hmmmmm, maybe ill take the lil lady out to see it tonight perhaps

It's gotta be NoBe, there's no real Camp Crystal Lake

Knipps is right, it is Camp No-Be-Bo-Sco in Blairstown, New Jersey. You can call the managers of the camp to visit it during the off-seasons because it is owned by the Boy Scouts and is still functioning. However, if you go there, there is a Jason mask and a sign that says Camp Crystal Lake with information about the movie and the filming of it there. Here is a link to a website with cool pictures of then and now shots and has some information.

yeah that was the link iwas looking for

badass...thanx for that link. i think im gonna try to set up a date to go check it out (if the camp allows it).. any clue what the hell im supposed to say to these people when i call them?

"Hi, im a friday the 13th fan and i want to come walk around your camp dressed in full Jason uniform and prowl for over sexed, drugged out, drunk teenage buffoons...

where do I have to sign for these priviledges?"

Holy crap!! this is not a joke...some lunatic attacked the actor who played Jason in F13 part 2 with an AXE!!!

http://fridaythe13thfilms.com/blog/w...by-crazed-fan/

that is f--king nuts! what the hell is wrong with people? cant we leave the killing to Jason on the big screen?!?!

you believe that? wacky world i tell ya...WACKY.
