Summary
The Saw Twitter page has posted strange image of Billy the Puppet turning a PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie maze into an inescapable trap.
"The potential double feature "Saw Patrol" offers a unique combination, merging the intense horror of Saw X with the beloved children's film PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie. However, it's worth noting that this crossover may not generate as much buzz as the highly successful "Barbenheimer" crossover."
Check out this odd image of Billy the Puppet from Saw X, as he transforms a kid-friendly maze from PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie into an inescapable trap. Both Saw X and PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie will hit theaters on September 29, 2023. This unique collaboration has even earned them the nickname "Saw Patrol," following in the footsteps of the "Barbenheimer" combination of Barbie and Oppenheimer in July. Saw has now shared a bizarre image showcasing Billy the Puppet's creepy influence, as he takes control of the PAW Patrol maze. Take a look below:
The image depicts the PAW Patrol team comprising of four members, who find themselves ensnared within a labyrinth by the notorious Jigsaw. Additionally, the serial killer has inscribed the words "GAME OVER" onto the intricate maze, a deliberate nod to a catchphrase associated with the franchise.
Is Saw Patrol The Next Big Double Feature?
The potential success of Saw Patrol hinges on increased attention towards the simultaneous release of Saw X and PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie. Just like the stark contrast between Barbie and Oppenheimer, these upcoming films diverge in terms of tone and target audience, making the idea of a crossover double feature seem absurd. PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie caters to children, adapting the popular Nick Jr. series, whereas Saw X delves into gruesome horror with Jigsaw's dread-inducing traps.
With the notable contrast between the two movies, Saw Patrol appears to have the potential to become a captivating double feature, albeit with a more specialized audience compared to Barbenheimer. However, it is important to note that the initiative for the crossover did not originate from fan observations, but rather from a tweet by Paramount Pictures. Considering that the Saw Twitter account is acknowledging the crossover, it is possible that it may come across as excessively contrived and struggle to gain as much attention as Barbenheimer.
Nevertheless, there remains a possibility that Saw Patrol could still attract a small-scale crossover following, with some individuals opting to watch both Saw X and PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie on its opening weekend. While it is unlikely that Saw Patrol will receive the same level of attention as Barbenheimer, the comedic double feature may be alluded to again prior to September 29. However, it appears doubtful that PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie will respond to Saw X's transformation of their maze into a Jigsaw trap.
