Did any of the Saw movies ever lighten the fuck up or are they all the same dreary, gritty, 2000s-style horror? I really think the premise of the series has a lot of potential but the way it gets trapped in the murderporn mire of the era really dragged down the ones I've seen.
You seem to be taking these movies too seriously. They're fun movies. It's dedication to continuity is both hilarious and admirable, the continuity is literally unmatched by any other movie series in existence. The story gets very convoluted, mainly in Part 4 but that's a big part of it's charm. The story is fun to follow along with, it has lovable heroes / villains to root for, the traps are fun and the Lost-styled mysteries spread across the series are a great hook.
Especially with Part 4 is when the series really starts becoming like a Looney Tunes cartoon. Part 7 is practically a full blown comedy.

The original is the only good one. Well, 2 isn't bad but the rest of the series is laughable. It's better than the Paranormal Activity series though.

Okay this gives me hope. I've only seen 1-3 and I felt they took themselves unflinchingly seriously at all times (this was a while ago though) and it really took away from the experience for me. I'll give the rest of the series a shot, thank you.

I can't be the only one that fapped to the puppet right?
