Halloween 3D...2010 - Blu-ray Forum

Blu Myers · 08-31-2009, 12:00 AM

Looks like the Weinsteins are gonna try to capitalize on the whole 3d craze going on right now. Zombie won't be back...new director, different spin. Link below:

Thoughts?

We will have to wait and see!

opterasis · 08-31-2009, 12:57 AM

I have to admit, the whole 3d gimmick makes even crappy movies a bit more fun. And hopefully it's better than the steaming pile of crap RZ released on theaters this weekend.

Red Hood · 08-31-2009, 01:01 AM

I can't stand 3d and it's sad that movie companies have to use a gimmick to make you see their crap. One of the reasons I'm not excited for avatar.

To quote Randal from Clerks; "I don't watch movies."

But seriously, 3D movies imo, suck. I saw Bolt 3D and hated it.

Didn't see H2 yet, I'll probably see at the dollar theater.

I'm so glad to hear that Zombie wont be back. I've haven't seen his second Halloween film, but his first one was one of the worst movies I've ever seen.

I'm very intrigued about the 3D movie because the new guy wants to take it into a different direction. Maybe it will be like Superman Returns and it will be a direct sequel to one of the original Halloween movies. A direct sequel to the original Halloween II would be awesome.

Invest in Uwe Boll movies. They'd be right up your alley.

So long as it will be released in Summer like the previous Halloween movie remakes have been, it's doomed to not do as well as Halloween movies that are... y'know... released NEAR HALLOWEEN.

The Weinstein's have some really stupid people working in their marketing department.

I have never understood why they'd release Halloween in August. It's called Halloween for Christ's sake! Friday the 13th was released on a Friday the 13th after all.

The Weinsteins will still be around?

Lord_Stewie · 08-31-2009, 04:42 AM

wonder how this would turn out.

Blu Myers · 08-31-2009, 04:44 AM

I definitely think that Zombie needs to go. I really miss the old Myers, you know, the one that didn’t live in a trailer park.

I'm confused by your statement. Are you sticking up for Rob Zombie? You're entitled to your own opinion, but I personally think that Zombie is an untalented hack when it comes to directing.

For a horror movie fan, Zombie sure doesn't know how to make one. He violated the most important rule for a horror film: show as little of the antagonist as possible. His version of Halloween had absolutely zero suspense because he showed the audience too much Myers. Part of the original movie's mystery and allure was not knowing much about the character. Zombie lifted the veil and gave us horrible explanations for mysteries that we didn't want to know the answers to.

Kryptonic · 08-31-2009, 09:27 AM

Weinstein must be really be sore about his movie getting beat by a substantial margin by Final Destination. Terrible idea. Just let the franchise die already.

Agreed....as much as it pains me to say it, imo the original sequels to Halloween (i'm even including 3 in that grouping) were far superior to anything Zombie has put out.

I have to agree. I am a huge fan of the original Halloween and all the sequels except for "Halloween III - Season of the Witches". I am happy to hear that Rob Zombie will not be back. I thought his first take was horrible and I have heard his sequel was a waste of time.

Great news because Zombie is terrible!!

actually the reason Halloween 2 was rushed into production (and all through production) was so they could get to Halloween 3 (D), part 2 was never a priority and they are happy with it just making it's production cost back.
