A New Page From The Book Of Saw (Spiral)

The Saw Franchise has truly been a major entry into the mainstream horror scene. Brought to the screen with the first "Saw" film (directed by horror superstar Jame Wan), the film spawned sequel after sequel. It became a Halloween tradition. And merchandise could always be seen at Halloween shops during the October season.
In 2017 they tried to resurrect the franchise (after everyone was told the final installment would be 2010's "Saw 3D") with "Jigsaw." Though profitable, most folks (and especially critics) were lukewarm to the new entry.
Now, this summer a continuation of the Saw Franchise is on the way, with Wan returning as a producer with comedian Chris Rock (who will also star in the film with Samuel L. Jackson).
It is part of the larger universe but seems to be a side story...a different page from The Book Of Saw, if you will.
The trailer does look interesting, if not completely reinventing the wheel. And with Chris Rock at the helm, it seems to be something of a breath of fresh air for the series. He is an unconventional leader for the Saw Films but for many actors it's a way to step out of their comfort zone. So props to him.

Intentional Parallels? ("Conclave" Movie Review)
"Conclave" is a mystery thriller based on the 2016 Robert Harris book of the same name. Starring Ralph Fiennes, John Lithgow, Stanley Tucci, and Isabella Rossellini, the film focuses on the most powerful group of the Catholic Church cardinals as they mourn their recently deceased pope and prepare to vote for a new one. As they continue to vote and debate the merits of the nominees, many twists and turns present bumps in the road. And that last twist...well, it's a doozy. Being a registered independent, this film firmly leans in the progressive side of things, though corruption seeps into all sides. It is a fight for those in the middle to choose which way the church will continue into the future. Whether it should go back to reading Latin and become so conservative that they choose not to accept other religions or liberal points of view, or whether to continue to go in a more progressive way and deal with the world as it changes. As I watched this film I couldn't help...
