It was a letdown. While I was hoping for a F13 reboot, I now want all these old franchises put to bed. They just run in circles.
Welcome back by the way, miss you brother! Not going to deny they wasted a lot of talent on homages to the old movies and like two or three annoying supporting characters but I enjoyed this a lot more than what we got since the nineties up to the Rob Zombie remakes.

So who here has seen the new Halloween? It's definitely one of the best sequels in ages. Not as good as H2 and H4 but I would rank it in the top 5 best of the sequels. There was some corny dialogue and more than enough comic relief but this was the best portrayal of Michael Myers in ages to channel Nick Castle. I'd give it a 7.5 out of 10.

I will keep this book in mind as I am a big fan of Eric Clapton myself. I've seen him live twice at Madison Square Garden and his music inspired me to pick the guitar back up 8 years ago after a long hiatus of not playing.

Although I am excited for this, it unfortunately seems the studios feel a Halloween movie can only be good if it has Jamie Lee Curtis in it. What I wished the Halloween reboot 12 years ago to be was Myers stalking Haddonfield in a modern setting without the Laurie Strode/Dr. Loomis stuff but that got rehashed in Rob Zombie's take. I hope this new one is the Wes Craven's New Nightmare of the franchise.

I'm digging the revamped survivalist take on Laurie Strode and am glad the sibling connection is omitted, trailer looks promising imo.
James(or kermit the Trump), from what I tried searching, we don't have a thread for the Halloween franchise overall like Batman and Star Wars. If you want to edit the title, feel free.

James, many apologies for being late on this. I'm so sorry for your loss, my condolences are with you and your family. Reading your first post reminded me of how close me and my grandmother were, she passed away almost two years ago. We too loved to debate about politics and I always loved to hear her stories about life in the '30s-'40s (The Great Depression and World War II). I don't know what kind of person I'd be today if it weren't for the love and caring I had from my grandparents during my childhood.

I haven't listened to this album in ages, I'm going to take the cd with me the next time I'm on the road. My favorite songs are Of Wolf And Man and The Unforgiven. For some reason The God That Failed always sounded very Load/Reload-ish to me, like it's the sound of Metallica "selling out."

I wonder if they waited until now to release this now that his God-like aura has winded down after his death. Corey Feldman should come forward now that he has the chance. He's been claiming for years that he was molested by a prominent figure(s) in the entertainment industry.
