I agree, without Bradley it probably wouldn't work. Just bring in a fresh new perspective from a younger yet accomplished director and it could be interesting. Same goes for A Nightmare on Elm Street... I don't think anyone else should play Freddy with the exception of Robert Englund. He obviously expressed disinterest in playing the character again... but who knows.... money prevails all.
