I just think there’s a certain irony that he was mad about the HBO Max day and date decision, when Universal are the ones who keep dumping their movies onto their streaming service that nobody cares about, regardless of how much money they make in theaters. If Nolan was really that mad on behalf of movie theaters, he might as well have gone to Sony. 

 

I suspect Nolan's anger wasn't that WB movies were hitting streaming day and date, it's that they were being forced to. Last year Universal paid a huge amount of money to the creatives on HALLOWEEN KILLS (essentially giving them a back-end like if the film had performed as well as HALLOWEEN 2018) to get them to agree to a simultaneous Peacock launch. I wouldn't be surprised if the same thing happened this time.

 

Look, I won't lie - the insider buzz on HALLOWEEN ENDS is... not spectacular. But I think this has more to do with Universal trying to spruce up Peacock's subscriber numbers than lack of faith in how the movie will perform.

Even ignoring the day and date stuff, they’ve consistently given their movies shorter theatrical windows than other studios.

That’s a digital billboard, next page says October 14th, so the tweet doesn’t work.

This has been up for two hours and nobody bothered to put up the new trailer here. Huh.

To be fair, I watched it and wished I didn’t, they show too much again. I should’ve learned my lesson from the Kills trailers. Fool me once and all that though…

All I ask is that they unambiguously kill off Michael Myers once and for all.

Looking more forward to the RedLetterMedia review than the movie

If they do, I just hope that his inevitable return in a few years is done better than the way Halloween Resurrection retconned H20’s ending.

This won't be the best Jamie Lee Curtis movie released in 2022.

Every trailer for Halloween 2018/Kills/Ends has been the exact same thing lol.

I'll still see it because I've seen the other 12...

That’s why I’m not watching the trailer either.

Now we know why MCU films make so much money.

Jamie Lee Curtis is doing lots of promo. She was great on Graham Norton. 
 

Social media ads have started for me. 
 

Watched Halloween H20 earlier, aka the best Halloween sequel IMO.

I love H20, the last 20 minutes or so is perfection. I remember being so hyped the first time I saw Laurie head back towards the school to confront him.
