Am I the only one who thinks this section is POV? I mean, I like Saw as much as the next guy, but V had by far the lowest critical consensus for the series to date, and all it mentions are positive reviews. If someone could attempt to balance it out by adding some of the negative reviews, that'd be great. If not, I'll try doing some tomorrow.-- CyberGhostface ( talk) 02:12, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
The "plot" section is a total recounting and spoiler of the film. It should have a warning prior. "Plot" implies the gist of the story, not a total spoiler. 156.111.160.114 ( talk) 04:38, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
The discussing of the entire plot occurring in the movie, particularly the second half of the plot, is a gigantic edit fuck fest. People are shorting it, leaving out valuable info, sometimes adding redundant terms etc. Something needs to be done here. Comparing the current plot info on the Saw V article with every other movie the whole thing is slack written, and the currently written ending in the article at this point, which doesn't give a specific reason for Strahm not being able to escape the room, is like pinpointing the movie for being generally illogical and badly written in terms of sense. The plot isn't written according to the timeline either, instead it's combining it all in different sections, and it also leaves out the infamous plot twists of the Saw movies, which there even were two of in this movie.

Here's what it says when you edit: If you don't want your writing to be edited mercilessly or redistributed for profit by others, do not submit it. The ending is fine, there is no twist, Strahm gets killed, Erickson finds Brit, Hoffman is in a box. The plot is clear in these aspects. Darrenhusted ( talk) 09:12, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
That's fine. I stand by my inclusion. Simply stating the team requirement is not sufficient - it leaves those that take a deeper interest in the movie asking 'How?'. Hence the explanation. If you find the paragraph too long (We've all seen MUCH longer paragraphs under the 'plot' of movies on Wikipedia) then feel free to breeze over it - give the readers an option to skip that part of the reading if they wish. Don't decide for them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by General DarkBlood ( talk • contribs) 09:56, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
since factual details are becoming available, isn't it time to make a Saw VI article yet? 68.185.167.117 ( talk) 08:17, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
It has been announced. Tobin Bell and Costas are both signed on. Plus there is a clip on Youtube. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.187.76.236 ( talk) 00:37, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
