Saw III (2006)
1 easter egg
Directed by: Darren Lynn Bousman
Starring: Tobin Bell, Shawnee Smith, Angus Macfadyen, Bahar Soomekh
Continuity mistake: Just before Amanda shoots Lynn her gun switches from her right hand to her left.
Trivia: Before release, Donnie Whalberg was reported to have dropped out of "Saw III" (after having starred in "Saw II"), and it was widely stated that he would not appear in the film. However, it was later revealed that these reports were just a ruse to keep the public from knowing that he actually would appear in the film.
Question: In both Saw II and III we learn that Amanda is working for Jigsaw, after her test in the first movie. However I don't see the reason why she had to be in a game again, in Saw II. I was hoping that to be explained in Saw III, but apparently, it wasn't. Please enlighten me.
Answer: Amanda was in the Saw 2 game to mainly protect Daniel Eric's son from harm, so he could be alive for Eric's test during the police interrogation with Jigsaw. The whole game centered around Eric Matthews and simply included his framed victims. This was Amanda's choosing, so she was the reasonable choice to oversee it.
Answer: In Saw II, Amanda pretended to be one of the prisoners, so she could observe her fellow prisoners.
