To the first part, you don't seem to get my point.I meant, besides when Freddy actually attacks his victims in some way or another, it's still for all intents and purposes a simple nightmare. Wolverine, for example, would not be afraid of Sabretooth in real life. But in the nightmare, he may actually be afraid of him if Freddy took his shape, simply because a nightmare plays on you cerebral-biochemically. For the most part, it's almost impossible to NOT be afraid. So Freddy can do all these magic tricks and crap, showing off his dream warping powers by manifesting everything under the sun, but it doesn't count for sh*t unless he actually attacks his victims.
For the second part, I never back on my acknowledgments of fact. Wolverine DOES need something to regenerate from. But when was the last time Freddy threw someone into an acid bath or the sun? Faced with Jason, Freddy had absolutely no idea what to do against someone who won't die. Although, Freddy did seem to get somewhere when he was "drowning" Jason. Maybe you have to be afraid of it for it to hurt you. That would make some sense. But that's just speculation. In any case, I've seen all the Freddy's and Jason's a million times. Freddy's never done anything in the league of sun-tossing. It may be a Kryptonian's best friend, but Freddy simply doesn't do it. BUT! I do have to admit, it's plausible; if he pulled out all the stops he could very well throw someone in the sun. And then I ask myself; would Freddy have to know the temperature of the sun to make it as hot as the real sun? Does he have to know the properties of certain things like that? That would explain why he's never does more than manifest flypaper, blood, giant q-tips, heroine, a hurricane, and a platform of spikes.
part 1
oh ok then I really got it a bit wrong
I wouldn't 100% agree on the thing that it is a simple nightmare unless he attacks, I think (at this point don't have an exact example, but still) it's also possible that someone hurts himself and carries the damage to the real world, so I think the whole dream created by freddy works diffrent than normal nightmares but thats irrelevant
"but it doesn't count for sh*t unless he actually attacks his victims."
well I definately have to disagree with this, I wouldn't say it doesn't count for s*it because with this powers he can create the perfect circumstances for his attack, for example creating a giant magnet or quicksand to trap him.
part 2
"For the second part, I never back on my acknowledgments of fact. Wolverine DOES need something to regenerate from."
yeah I know I just wanted to make this clear again cause I've seen people sometimes claim that he would just heal from absolutely everything done to him.
"Faced with Jason, Freddy had absolutely no idea what to do against someone who won't die. Although, Freddy did seem to get somewhere when he was "drowning" Jason"
hm yeah the whole thing of freddy being surprised was kinda dumb or just a way to show jason in a respectful fight, because freddy shapeshifted into Jasons Mother in the beginning so Freddy actually said by himself that jason can't die (If I remeber right she said: whatever they do to you you can't die) and then in the fight he wonders that that he was saying was actually right 😑
"Maybe you have to be afraid of it for it to hurt you"
hm it would, but it seems you don't have to because in one movie this karate guy isn't afraid of Freddy in any way (he was actually seeking the confrontation) and still got killed
and yeah I know he's never done anything near like sun tossing but I think we agree he easily could and really why should he throw a normal teenager into the sun it's not like he couldn't kill him otherwise in a more sadistic/funny way only for his amusement
to the last thing I don't think he has to know how stuff works to do it, I mean he once put someone in a video game and I don't think he actually knows how programming or the inside of a videoconsole works
I think it's more like the GL rings you just imagine what you want and the ring does the rest for you
"That would explain why he's never does more than manifest flypaper, blood, giant q-tips, heroine, a hurricane, and a platform of spikes."
well I thinks that's again because it's just not really necessary to do more for normal humans, FvJ is in a way an example for this he telekinetaccly tossing jason around like a pinball he has never done something like this to a normal human he was more going out not going ALL out but more
