Napoleon Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 I liked Halloween Kills a lot, it's one of those movies that I have no idea why people hated so much (like Dark Phoenix). There was that plot point that felt a bit off, but I don't see how it ruins the entire movie which was pretty entertaining to me 🤷♂️ Curious to see how this is received and how it performs at the box office, though, considering Universal made an expensive bet on the director rebooting The Exorcist. I'm always rooting for movies to be good, of course, but my evil side is hoping for disaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 I am hopeful that this one’ll be good. The teaser caught my attention, at the very least (although the same was true for Kills and I didn’t care for the movie itself). I’m betting this’ll get a bit bigger OW than Kills, but lower than 2018. Maybe $65m? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

motionpic05 Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Is 1.8 million viewers bad for the amount of trailer views so far? (Uploaded roughly 48 hours ago) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krissykins Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Jason Blum confirmed in an interview that the only reason he called it Halloween “Ends” is because Blumhouse only secured the rights for 3 films. I’m sure Michael will be back in a few years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, should be interesting to see what direction they take it in once Jamie Lee Curtis is done, it’ll need a new hook, and I just hope they don’t just revert to standard slasher fare. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do love standard slasher fare lol. But I know exactly what you mean. They’ll need a big hook and they won’t be able to recapture the current level of interest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah don’t get me wrong, I love a good slasher, but I always hold Halloween to a higher standard than most other franchises (not really sure why though when Halloween Resurrection exists, lol). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krissykins Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 The only two reasons I can think of why they’re doing this: 1. Jamie Lee pushed for it herself. 2. Universal want to try and boost Peacock again in time for Q4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
