I remember reading that Dan and Ed were interested in doing a Blair Witch 2 but they wanted to wait till all the hype of part 1 died down and Artisan didn't wanna wait so they went ahead without them and well...we all know what we got. lol.
I was curious if Dan or Ed had ever stated in a later interview what their idea for Blair Witch 2 was? Or do you think that idea might be what we will get for Blair Witch 3?

BW2 was going to be a prequel centered on Elly Kedward. BW3 was to be a sequel. Dan and Ed wanted to do another film first (Heart Of Love) and Artisan wanted a second Blair film right away.
Thus Book Of Shadows was born...

If Artisan hadn't wanted Blair 2 so quickly, The Trial of Elly Kedward website would be saying a lot more than 'coming soon'.

Most likely Elly's site will finally go from "coming soon" to actual content come this autumn.
There's a specific reason she's been standing by all these years.

Dan, is this third film ever going to happen? I second this, could we at least have some kind of update Dan? We would love and be very grateful of some news.

People really don't seem to get it. And you call yourself fans? They made it perfectly clear in "curse" that it is about 60years between every "event" that can be connected with the Blair Witch. So in 2050 people that's when we get it.....or maybe as soon as 2040*
*yes I'm joking

It's a true shame Artisan wanted Blair Witch 2 so fast, We could of gotten something so much better then Book Of Shadows if they could of just waited.

I listened to a podcast recently where the makers of BWP said they had wanted to make a prequel involving Elly and shoot it like a regular movie during the winter. And maybe do a third movie as a black and white film set and maybe shot during the Rustin Parr incident.

It's all upto Lionsgate I'm afraid. The makers behind BWP can plan and speculate all they want, they need the green light from the studio first. And will they get it? God knows.

Well Lionsgates has let us down before by not releasing a 10th anniversary edition of the BWP so I cant say I fully believe they will agree to doing the film. I just get the feeling Lionsgate doesn't care much about it.

It really is a shame really. Still, if the makers of the BWP wished to make a sequel, they could always use some kind of crowd funding to somehow release it Direct to DVD/VOD. It's still doable. But I just don't think there's enough demand for the 'BWP 3' just yet. It only seems as if enthusiasts of the series want it, not average movie go'ers.

I keep wondering if we will ever get a new BWP it's just that we've been teased and then let down so much you know.

We're all constantly hoping for some kind of new installment to the BW series, but as months/years past, it becomes increasingly doubtful. If they were to do it, they would've done it years ago when the hype was still there. Unfortunately generic films and there countless sequels seem to be the only thing that the studios care about nowadays.
Cash and the quantity of it over quality. Just look at Paranormal Activity.

I know I'm hoping against hope here, but I sincerely wish that they would make another film to add to the series - one that overlooks the dismal BoS and goes back to the roots of the BWP. I wonder if they take a look at forums like this one and take the fans thoughts into consideration? I don't know all the ins and outs of movie-making, but I think if they have enough motivation and passion to create something truly REAL like the first film, I think they could do it.

I'm pretty sure that Ed wants to make a sequel to the Blair Witch, but it's just a matter of funding and time at the moment. Ed is currently working on a whole range of different films (He's currently promoting 'Lovely Molly', and his new found footage film 'Exists' is currently in post-production). Also, Lionsgate are still yet to give a third film a green light. I still haven't worked out why they haven't helped fund the film after the monumental success of the original, but I have a feeling the success of the yearly released Paranormal Activity may have something to do with it. We'll just have to hope, a third movie COULD be made. It's just a matter of when and how.

But may I ask, what does "4 in 1" actually mean? You've posted it in another topic aswell.

Hmm, why aren't you allowed to tell us? It's pretty obvious that BW3 has been abandoned.
