In the beginning I was one that was totally against Halloween being re-made because the original was a movie that shouldnt have been touched. I also agree that the the Fog re-make was nothing short of disasterous, IT WAS! Back to Halloween. I'm going to give the movie a chance because from what I have seen so far it looks ok. Rob made Michael look creepier then hell something that the last couple of Halloweens didnt do. Will it fail? Most re-makes do but it depends on the acting and storyline. We shall see. No matter if Halloween is a remake/prequal we will always have the original which never EVER will be touched in any way. The original was and IS a classic and thats just the way it is no matter how many re-makes they do of Halloween. But again I'm gonna give Robs version the benefit of the doubt right now only because it adds more to Michaels legend and for ONCE puts him back in the spotlight were he hasnt been for a long time.

Couldn't agree with you more! I feel the same way, I hate remakes but will give this film my $12.
 
Cool new trailer! :rock

And I'm getting this:

Carpenter's Halloween is probably my favorite movie of all time. I think Zombie was the wrong choice for this one as subtlety and nuance doesn't seem to fit his style. I think Aja Alexander would have been perfect for this since Haute Tension has a bit of a Halloween vibe at times. I'll see this movie regardless but I'm not really keeping my hopes up.

Then again this movie can only go upwards after the past four offerings, which were garbage.
 
Still undecided on this one in all honesty.... why it had to be remade I will never know!
 
True

I wish Hollywood would come up with something original though

They had no choice really. The Akkad family screwed the franchise up with useless sequels (I still can't get over the stupid clown noises they gave those cops in part five).
 
Did anyone catch the Halloween panel at SDCC? I missed it, but I was curious to know if anything interesting was discussed.
 
i'm still trying to figure out what the heck part 3 was. i love watching the others just for michael, but evil halloween masks???

Let it go man... too much thinking of silly plots ain't healthy for ya. Man that was a bad one. Halloween has had more bad movies than good ones.

Part II was the end of the Michael Myers chapter, part III was like a new beginning to newer story's. After popular demand they finally brought Michael back in part IV, he was up to that point finished, he had died from part II.

Even though they brought him back in part IV the movie really sucked ass anyway! I think a true Halloween fan would have been more content with the way Carpenter originally ended it.

As far as Carpenter was concerned there never should have been a part two. There was never going to be a part two. But hey, money walks and John "ho'd out" for the money (a lot of money lol). His book has a very interesting chapter about part two. I highly recommend that one.

Oh......cool! I didn't know that.
 
This movie is now getting REALLY NEGATIVE buzz from those I know who have seen it.

:(

Cool, that probably means it'll be great :lol

Saw a trailer for it on TV, looks pretty fun. There's no way to really top the original, but It'll be interesting to see what Zombie is able to bring to the table.

I caught the new trailer on TV too, looks friggin badass. For anybody who's seen the new TV spot, did anybody catch that Myers (as a child) actually has speaking lines? He spoke a few lines (while crying) in a police station.

Either way, i'm ready to spend my $$$ at the theater :rock
