Jamie Lee Curtis returns to her iconic role as Laurie Strode in HALLOWEEN, released by Universal Pictures October 19, 2018.

 

[Boke1879]

I wonder how they will do this. Will they just ignore the movie she supposedly died in?

 

[BoogieWoogie]

 

[HStallion]

She should play Michael Myers at this point

 

[BasilZero]

Hopefully it's nothing like the modern Halloween movies made...

 

[creatchee]

Why they do this? Maybe different character?

Edit: nope, tweet says Laurie

 

[dantevsninjas]

I thought she was dead, but she's in next year's movie.

You thought Laurie Strode was dead, or you thought Jaime Lee Curtis was dead?

 

[Penguin]

You thought Laurie Strode was dead, or you thought Jaime Lee Curtis was dead?

Laure Strode

I know Curtis was alive, I watched Scream Queens!

 

[Always-honest]

She's still kinda hot imo.

 

[Plasticine]

So, not wedging this between 2 and 4. Just completely writing everything after 2 out of existence. We've already tried this once. Hope it works out better this time!

 

[Sanjuro]

It's going to be a 90 minute yogurt advert.

 

[HiiiLife]

Is she gonna lop someone's head off again.

 

[Glix]

She's still kinda hot imo.

I'll second this.

 

[Begbie]

I've only seen the original first two.. are the rest worth watching?

 

[AgentOtaku]

Whoa!

 

[Ahasverus]

She hasn't aged more than a week so it's great.

 

[Prince of Space]

Will she don her Vega costume for the climactic showdown?

 

[PanSexual_Peacock]

I guess their going to retcon Resurrection. This franchise is used to doing that anyway.

 

[Rival]

I'll definitely check it out. I hope it's better than the second rob zombie one.

 

[AuthenticM]

I wonder how they will do this. Will they just ignore the movie she supposedly died in?

That's been confirmed.

 

[Tagyhag]

I wonder how they will do this. Will they just ignore the movie she supposedly died in?

I mean, we all do already. It was soooo bad.

 

[Snake]

There's nothing wrong with pretending Halloween: Resurrection doesn't exist.

 

[HStallion]

I'll definitely check it out. I hope it's better than the second rob zombie one.

It shouldn't be hard to be better then either of his Halloween films.

 

[dantevsninjas]

Laure Strode

I know Curtis was alive, I watched Scream Queens!

Gotcha. I thought she survived in H20. Wasn't that her last appearance?

 

[Snaku]

Please be a true sequel to Halloween 4, put Jamie Lloyd behind the mask.

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

Fuck yes. Always happy to see her in anything ever since I saw Trading Places as a kid. She's badass.

 

[Violence Jack]

Awesome!!

And i'm totally expecting her to die in it.

My guess is that they ignored the movies after Halloween 2 or Halloween H2O since Resurrection was absolute shit.

 

[BoogieWoogie]

This means Busta Rhymes is no longer in continuity. I WON'T STAND FOR IT!

 

[badcrumble]

If her brother can repeatedly come back then so can she.

 

[F0rneus]

Holy fucking shit. I legit got chills. I cannot wait for this.

I've only seen the original first two.. are the rest worth watching?

4 is great.

 

[Haloid1177]

I've only seen the original first two.. are the rest worth watching?

I have a soft spot for 4 and 5, and I genuinely think H20 is a solid slasher film, but skip 6, Resurrection, and the Zombie films.

Gotcha. I thought she survived in H20. Wasn't that her last appearance?

She was in the first scene of Resurrection.

 

[Boke1879]

Good because FUCK whatever Halloween 3 was trying to be.

 

[Waylon Drums]

This is good. And fun. Stop it.


Edit: She's wearing the same outfit from part 1!

 

[AuthenticM]

H20 was great and honestly should have been the franchise's finale. Its ending is fucking perfect.

 

[Penguin]

Gotcha. I thought she survived in H20. Wasn't that her last appearance?

Naw she returns in the next one and is killed off in the beginning

I wanna say Resurrection?

 

[Savitar]

So they're ignoring the ignoring original movie continuity(again) and the remakes and making her alive? (Again).

I have no strong feelings about this either way but you almost need a score card on what's what with the movies and if they connect or not.

 

[Cranster]

Unexpected to say the least.

 

[Raptor]

She's still kinda hot imo.

Not kinda, she is really hot, True Lies she was just off the charts hot.

 

[itwasTuesday]

So h4o?

Either way I'll be seeing this.
Hydronium time.

 

[tootie923]

I wonder how they will do this. Will they just ignore the movie she supposedly died in?

Is that the one where Tyra Banks was eating something in every scene?

 

[Always-honest]

Not kinda, she is really hot, True Lies she was just off the charts hot.

Yeah. That's a century ago though. Still hot.

 

[jwk94]

Idk if it's intentional or not, but she looks like she's done with this shit. I'm hoping she really gets to fight back in this one.

I wonder how they will do this. Will they just ignore the movie she supposedly died in?

So, not wedging this between 2 and 4. Just completely writing everything after 2 out of existence. We've already tried this once. Hope it works out better this time!

Yep looks like this eliminates everything after Carpenter left. I'm still super disappointed that Danielle Harris won't be back as Jamie Lloyd, but whatever, I guess. Seeing those two team up would've been amazing.

 

[Rival]

It shouldn't be hard to be better then either of his Halloween films.

Agreed. At least his first one I could get through once. The second one was one of the worst things I've ever tried to watch. Pretty sure the girlfriend and I walked out of the theater.

In retrospect, I guess a great many characters have returned from the dead from worse than the above clip.

Still, retconning Resurrection out of existence is fine by me. They should keep the one with LL though. You don't get to see a Black dude survive horror movies all that often.

 

[autumnleaf]

I'll just say it, the Halloween Remake wasn't that bad.

Also if they want to just ignore Resurrection that's fine by me.

 

[PanSexual_Peacock]

So is this going to take place after Halloween 2 or H20?

 

[clevbrowns94]

I wonder how they will do this. Will they just ignore the movie she supposedly died in?

Just like they ignored her beheading Michael Myers (well not ignored, but they copped out and said she beheaded someone else by accident...sure).

 

[zeemumu]

Funny, she had them kill her character in the old Halloween series within the first 10 minutes of Resurrection just to make sure they couldn't bring her back.

 

[borghe]

in. and yes she is still hot. 40 years of hotness is no small feat.

So is this going to take place after Halloween 2 or H20?

I LIKE H20.. Do not recall seeing Resurrection. So either I didn't, or it was forgettable.

FWIW I also liked Rob Zombie's first movie.. well, I remember it being uneven. Like the new stuff he did I actually liked.. but when it went shot for shot it became less interesting.

 

[adamsappel]

Good because FUCK whatever Halloween 3 was trying to be.

Do you mean Season of the Witch? Because that movie is awesome! (It was trying to be the start of a Halloween anthology series.)
