I like the idea of making the murders more public, but it looks like they'll be abandoning that after the first gory scene.
It would be neat if the whole film was more like a big ole Dark Knight social experiment that forced people in public to make decisions about who lives and who dies.

Edit: Just watched the trailer. It's no secret that I'm a huge Saw fan, both in that I'm very devout in my hobby and that I am obese. Everything I'm seeing about this one concerns me, however. This should be the final battle between everyone remaining from the first six. This should be marketed as the climax to the entire series. I want to see trailers recapping the original movies and laying out what each character will bring to the table in this epic showdown.
All I'm getting, though, is "The same thing, but in 3D!". If they mess this one up, it will very much disappoint me. The bar has never exactly been high for the Saw series, but they've typically succeeded in what they set out to do. I'd be sad if the fumble it so close to the goal.
DOUBLE EDIT!: Putting this next bit in small because of all the SPOILERS. The entire point of Saw VI was that it was the first time someone did something Kramer couldn't possibly have anticipated. That was what made the whole ending so incredible. If they sit there and go "Ah, but Kramer planned to have his plan foiled", it's going to be a broken promise in my eyes.

In the 6th movie, Jigsaw's main victim is an insurance adjuster who invented the equation that determines which people qualify for medical compensation and which do not. Jigsaw sets up a bunch of traps that makes the adjuster literally decide who lives and dies. His goal is to drive home the idea that quantifying the value of a human life is a disgusting thing to do.
Of course, there are flaws in that logic, but that's what makes Jigsaw such a fun villain! He always has this sound logic and respectable moral philosophy that will spontaneous jump the track to "And that's why we should torture a dozen people to death".
LOL! I didn't know Chester Bennington was going to be a victim in it.
I hope they have him say, "I tried so hard and got so far. But in the end, it doesn't even matter." Then get splatted. 
I also didn't know this was the confirmed last Saw movie. Sad times.

Which works for me. All 7 really needs to be is one huge fight scene and then credits. That would pretty much wrap everything up.

The rumors on Saw 8 are still going around, but I would rather they wrap it up with Saw 3D.
