Part 2 Freddy Glove Ringlets? - mpetrie - 02-21-2010
Hey everyone... I have been closely looking at some Part 2 images/video and am noticing something odd.Obviously, in the photo below, the fingers have two ringlets each.<img src=\"http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn47/knifegloves/Part2.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" />However, check these photos out. Had the lower ringlets on the middle fingers (and possibly the pinky) been cut off at some point during the filming of Part 2???<img src=\"http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn47/knifegloves/Part2c.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><img src=\"http://nightmareonelmstreetfilms.com/0/2p/full/nightmare2promo24.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><img src=\"http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn47/knifegloves/Part2a.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><img src=\"http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn47/knifegloves/Part2b.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" />

Maybe they took them off for better movement in order to do the bus driving scene <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/turned.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":turned:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"turned.gif\" />

Maybe it was more comfortable for Robert somehow...

better movement was my guess as well.

could they have broken off ? i mean if a blade could break in half then why not a thin ringlet that was barely soldered on ?

Regardless of HOW they came off, I just found it quite interesting that they ARE off. I can't seem to find a good photo showing if the pinky ringlet is still there or not, though. But I am certain that the index finger's ringlet still remains. Maybe it was a comfort issue. To speak plainly, I think the Part 1 glove is a bit awkward in terms of how it feels when worn. And that problem mainly comes with the length of the fingers and also the lower finger ringlets. It restricts your movement quite a bit. Maybe glove makers can start making Part 2 gloves without the lower ringlets too? <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\"
\" border=\"0\" alt=\"biggrin.gif\" />One thing I've noticed that is very hard to replicate is getting the backplate to lift up off of the back of the hand like in the scene where he's driving the bus. It pulls the leather on the wrist area up above the pull-strap and I believe that is what makes the glove look so short on Robert's wrist. You'd think that would be easy to replicate but to this day, I still can't seem to get my gloves, or anyone else's gloves, to do that consistently.

I was told that the glove is actually a medium.

I don't think they color-coded the hems back then. Even today I can find gloves of different sized with the same color hems. But I remember being told from a very reliable source (of course... can't remember who it was) but they said it is definitely a medium glove in the first film.
