    We'll agree to disagree. They still feel like rehashes to me. Halloween very much needs to move beyond Lori Strode and the 1978 template, IMHO.

    I mean it's no different than say Friday the 13th it's about a unstoppable killer going around killing people who somehow gets stopped that I don't have a problem with as long as it's interesting but I agree they need to get away from anymore Lori and they kinda did in 3 4 5 6 and 8. Anyway I think there's way more possiblys with termnater then there is for hoween.

    They did when they brought back Michael and introduced the cult. That wasn't good. Resurrection was even worse with the reality show angle they went with in that movie

    I think it was better than the rehashes we've got since. The stuff might have been wacky but at least it was original rather than boring.

    Well, in the later movies Jason did fight discount Carrie, and Freddy, and took a trip to Manhattan and Space/the Future. Were these good, maybe not but they certainly were something new. Either way if only for the lols and WTH moments, I find those infinitely more rewatchable than I do the recent cookie-cutter Halloween movies.

    I agree about Lori, she needs to go for good. If she kills Michael in the next movie I'm done with the series.

    Personally I'm a fan of the Rob Zombie movies. I liked how trippy the sequel was. I want to see more Halloweens like that

    Anything is better than the current cookie-cutter movies.

    But, yeah, I've always loved Rob Zombie's trippy style. House of 1000 Corpses is my favorite RZ movie the camera work, music, sound editing, and (most of all) visual effects make it seem like a bad acid trip (in a good way).

    One thing I didn't like about the 2nd one Zombie did was it seemed he came at the like "how can I get my wife in this film ?"
    Surely not everybody was kung fu fighting

    Indeed, RZ puts her in every movie he can.

    Just wondering if this person watched Dark Fate and the introduction of Dani Ramos? Its not a new finial girl that Terminator needs, They just need to hang up and stop making Terminator movies. Also Arnold wasn't in any of the predator sequels because he didn't want to be, not the reason that this article put out. Predator 2 was written at first with Dutch's return but Arnold wasn't up to it so Harrigan's part was expanded to the lead and Dutch's was shrunk and changed to Gary Busey's as Special Agent Peter Keyes/Predator hunter. What Prey did is not a fix all to rebooting a science fiction franchise, I do like Prometheus and Alien: Covenant but it just doesn't feel the same without Sigourney Weaver's Ripley

    Thumbs up

    Jeez, let this franchise die already. It is a mercy killing at this point. There is no need for a Terminator Seven in theory or practice.

    I think there's still potential for the Terminator franchise - they just needed to realize it could work without Arnold after T2. Focus on John Connor and the war. (and not the way they tried to do it - by focusing on some Terminator who thought he was a real boy. That was pointless)
