Saw III

A now very seriously ill Jigsaw is being cared for by Amanda in his workshop. Amanda kidnaps a doctor, Lynn, to keep Jigsaw alive long enough to see another victim, Jeff, complete his 'game'. Jeff is a grieving father whose son, Dylan, was killed in a road accident. Jeff's game involves Jeff being given an amount of time to follow a trail through a factory in which Jeff meets three people, in traps, involved in his son's murder. Jeff must choose whether to forgive them or watch them die painfully for their part in Dylan's murder. The film follows the two sides to the story and also has a side plot of the relationship between Jigsaw and Amanda whilst also looking at how some of the older traps (particularly Adam's) were set up.

Continuity mistake: The drill that Lynn uses on Jigsaw's skull has a white piece of tape on the end of the drill bit a short distance from the end, presumably to mark the thickness of his skull so she knows where to stop. In one shot (during the drilling scene) the piece of tape moves a good two inches farther up on the drill bit, but it's back down in the very next shot. (01:04:05)

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: In Saw V, Jigsaw explains to Hoffman that Amanda's purpose in the second game was make sure the others followed the rules.

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.
