Michael Myers Does a lot of Talking These Days

It was kind of a shock to hear The Weinsteins say they didn't have any intention on continuing the Halloween franchise, especially after Rob Zombie's remake made nearly $80 million worldwide at the box office. Only recently we've discovered that there are in fact plans on doing a new film, but everything is still at the absolute lowest level of talks. There will be another Halloween oen of these days, we know at least that much. But something odd that came to our attention is that offers went out to directors immediately following the opening weekend of the remake, when the Weinstein brothers claimed that this was it for the Myers family. So don't get too excited just yet, it could still be awhile before we see Michael Myers back on the big screen, but one thing that always remains true is that one successful film breeds ten more, so if Platinum Dunes' Friday the 13th remake kicks some ass expect an instant greenlight by early 2009.

I think they should leave Halloween alone. I seem to be of the very few that enjoyed the remake for what it was, but they shouldn't drag it out. It ended the way it should have and should be left at that.

As long as it made a profit I think we all knew another one would be made. If the original Halloween had all those sequels why not the remake? I've seen all the Halloween flicks. I can tolerate the sequels I only really like the original and remake, so if another one is made I'll watch it, but I think it's best to end this series. There really is no direction left to go. Regardless how anyone felt about the remake Zombie brought the story to a close. Just let it go Weinsteins.

Ehhhhh, H alloween2 wouldn't be so bad. The Original Fanchise was pushes to it's max and they were almost set for a straight to DVD release. So the re-make did give new life to the series and a second film wouldn't be bad. I wouldn't mind if they do a "re-make" for the Halloween 2 film but kept it going with RZ's Halloween. I didn't care for the re-make in theaters but I really liked the Uncut version I thought it was better with all the added and a few different scenes that they used. SO a re-make wouldn't be a bad thing I don't think. There is a site on myspace someone made that has wrote a script for a Halloween 2 and is suppost to pitch his script to the powers that be. The link is www.myspace.com/newhalloween2 Check it out if you get a sec. SO I say yeah to a 2nd Halloween film.

I think they should remake part 2 it's a good movie, the remake already gave new life for the series and if they do something different it would ruin everything, just remake part 2 and make it a good movie.

I'm confused. Is it another Halloween movie, like a sequel to Ressurection? Or is a sequel to Rob Zombie's remake? I'm hoping its a sequel to Resurrection because we never finished that story. Theres Michaels son, or nephew, however you put it, its Jamie's daughter, and Laurie's son! Michael isn't dead yet. He has to kill his family before we move on.

I don't see the point of picking up after resurrection.

@ joe: i'm sure laurie is a bit shaken up form the whole night, and didnt laurie in the original get less hurt? she got a few cuts sure. doesnt have to be a total remake of the 2nd. maybe michael just escapes from the hospital and comes after laurie again. who knows

IF they would do another one, why dont they just try to piece together the storyline with haloweens 4-6? tie them all together more instead of doing h20 (whcih i liked) haloween eight, and the remake? but if it is going to be a sequel to the remake then idk.....

they have to remake number 2, it wouldnt make sense if they didnt.the second one goes along with the first so pretty much if you make one you gotta make the second.and there is some pretty good scripts out there for number 2. halloween forever!!!

I don't know if they are going to really remake the 2nd or just create a new movie. I think it just depends on who is making it. They really need somebody that is good to do this one. Even thought I liked RZ Halloween doesn't mean everyone else did because obviously not everybody did. They need to hire somebody that has a similar style to Rob but at the same time have somebody who knows what they are doing. Also hire good writers and don't have as much swearing because it gets a little annoying.

I went into RZ's Halloween already planning to love it... And I HATED it! Michael Myers as white trash was lame, not scary. On that note I'd much rather they continue after Resurrection... Somehow I doubt that would happen tho... Well in theatres... Would confuse the audience I think. Maybe straight to video??? Would love to see H4-6 resolved...

(Straight to video in the Wrong Turn 2 sorta way... Not a POS.)

I look forward to a sequel based on Rob Zombies vision of Halloween. The real question is who would direct.

why would they remake halloween 2?Rob zombez movie was pretty much a prequel and, remake of 1 and 2. Remember 2? In rob zombie it revealed michael was lauries sister and that was the main point in halloween 2! do a sequel where michael goes after Laurie more that night. well thats like 2. they could remake 2 but it wouldnt be much of a shock that michael is lauries brother. except tp laurie. I think a good plot for a remake of 2 would be going after laurie more but, have annie be in the movie alot more thsn she was. she didnt die. 2 could be about laurie and, annie trying to escape a mental house a year after halloween when michael comes back for them.

Fuck that I didn't want them to remake the orginal! I certanly don't want them to do a sequel to restart the whole franchise again, it wouldn't make any fucking sence he is human he's not supernatural oh fuck this man this is complete horse shit.

I really don't see how they are even in talks of doing a sequel? besides how well it did in the box office, don't these people take in account that there was a lot of people that thought this movie sucked as well?! I even though the other Halloween sequels were better than this piece of shit! I even dare say ressurection why? because at least people were still scared of Michael Myers the mystique was still there he wasn't some white trash douch bag that tourtured animals! I think at least before you do any sequels to the remake in intrest in fairness ya need to give closure to the orginal franchise, for people that are fans of the the orginal frnachise not fucking fans of RZ's Halloween! I noticed most people are fans of RZ'S vershion are all to fucking add to enjoy the orginal if it doesn't jump out at you every 5seconds and it's not drenched with blood and gore it's not a good movie well fuck that! It takes more talent and more thought to do a Horror film that scares the shit out of you and doesn't need to give a fucking vishule on everything and exploit every possible detail there is. I mean Halloween didn't need to be remade that could of just done a badass sequel to counteract on ressurection they did it before with Halloween 5 and 6 when H20 came out and the 2nd and 4th were succesfull as well. I don't want to see another sequel unless it relates to the orginal franshise and has no affilation with RZ's Halloween in any shape way or form.

LEAVE IT ALONE....PLEASE!!!! The '07 remake sucked more than "Megamaid's" vaccuum. "Ressurection" was a pathetic excuse for a film...Busta' Rhymes vs. Michael Myers!!! Jesus H. Christ...gimme a fuckin' break. I guess they'll get Snoop Dogg to throw down with the Shape in the next installment!!!! Bunch o' whopping morons!!!! LEAVE IT ALONE!!!! "You don't know what death is"---Halloween II.
