Since when is Freddy aware that he's being filmed?

Seriously, talk about breaking the fourth wall.
Why oh why did that talentless hack Talalay decide to have Krueger giving us a 'sssshhhhh' sign when going after Carlos? It's like Freddy is acting about for US because he knows he's in a film or something. It just made the whole thing pathetic. -

I think it just shows Freddy REALLY enjoys what he's doing, and relishing in it. To me that makes him very cruel.
To Freddy, killing people and torturing them is the equivalent to a child being turned loose in a toy store, and that really comes out here, I noticed that the way he laughes when he kills Spencer, he seems SO amused and exilirated. He almost seemed like a child on X-mas morning!

Very good point. There is times in this movie where he is being cruel like he was in the last three movies. Him dancing around Carlos because Carlos can't hear him and Freddy poking fun at that, but I think that part got a little out of hand. I really liked him having complete control over Spencer too, but then that got out of hand. I agree with your last post though entirely.

I liked it I dont care what people say, I like NOES b/c there is a variety, it scares me and makes me laugh, I wouldn't like it if it was just straight horror all the way through.

Just because he looks in the direction of the camera doesn't mean he knows that it's there
He's pulling all sorts of mocking faces and contorting himself just for his own amusement, and it's in context, given the hearing loss.

you would think Talalay would of givin some kinda crap about the movie. the only cartoon reference this flick was missing was someone running off a cliff, hovering in mid air and freddy handing them an anvil. hmm..i wonder if Talalay was ever approached to do space jam, seems right up her ally.

The entire film's a complete mess. For the final sendoff, they should have gone back to the series' roots. Instead, they just went berzerk. The weird Twin Peaks vibe the town had, the celebrity cameos, the bizarre headache inducing 3D sequence at the end, turning Freddy into a pantomime villain that hams it up for the audience and those death scenes wtf were they thinking?
I'm pretty sure everyone involved was off their tits on crack when they made this. It's the only logical explanation for how this insultingly awful turd of a film ever saw the light of day. It genuinely has no redeeming qualities whatsoever.
Mmmm, big sexy with glasses! -

MrE26 - I completely disagree. There are redeeming qualities to every NOES film (except the remake), and that's why I like them all so much in their own way. They all have cool ideas, scenes, moments, etc, this one included.

They went even further in FvJ. They basically started the movie with him delivering exposition right into the camera!
