Good-ass movie, dug the hell out of it. Honestly might be top-tier MCU for me after I sit and think about it for a little longer. It deserves all its success and more, especially for actually trying something somewhat new and fresh with the formula.
A successful experiment? Not sure why so many got personally offended by this.
This is a very well deserved success
Hey, his Halloween 2 is not only the best of the series, but perhaps the most effective slasher film in at least the last 20 years
As someone who actually does like Zombie's movies, particularly 2, to some degree.... hard no to this my man.
Yeah, I still don't understand the issue people had with the quote
Glad to see Shang Chi crushing it!
That's awesome. I didn't expect it to do well thanks to the pandemic but I'm happy for the cast.
Whenever it and Spidey are out on D+ I will watch them day one.

This will not suffer the same fate that Black Widow did. The early signs are already to give us an idea that this will have decent/good legs. I'd be surprised if it drops more than 55% next weekend(BW dropped 67.8%). But I think even blow 50 is possible.
Glad it's doing well. My only complaint about the movie is that some of the CGI stood out in a bad way.
The finale of the film was pretty damn good to me. Wasn't expecting it.

Are they mad that it's doing well because it's Asian-led or something? Everything is "woke" to them lol.
Definitely in the upper echelon of superhero films and so well deserved in my book. Honestly deserves more but we're in a pandemic still so I get it.
Oof. That's a weird release plan. Netflix it is, then. I just can't justify going to theatres while the pandemic is up, sadly. Even vaccinated, I just don't trust people. I'm super happy for Simu though, I'm so glad he's been vindicated.
If you can take a small chance, I think it's pretty likely that there are going to be some nearly empty showings a few weeks after the movie comes out on a random weekday. Saw The Suicide Squad with like three people total in the theater!
They're going to be mad because most of them were predicting it would flop or at least be underwhelming at the box office.
So yes to both.
You love to see it! Hopefully we'll see a sequel greenlit pretty soon.
This gives out stock image vibes
I actually like Zombie's Halloween series, but I'm gonna need you to elaborate on this.
I mean slashers are kind of a dead genre, so there isn't much competition out there, but I can't think of another that is just so damn horrifically traumatic as H2 is.
There's a specific death later in the film, I think only in the director's cut that is fucking harrowing, and the cast really sells the material. Not like the bar is very high, but the performances are all perfect for the material.
Zombie also does an interesting job bringing Laurie trauma to the spotlight. That aspect isn't explored in the genre too much, but the her depression and downward spiral is very established and very difficult to watch. Again, it comes down to the strong acting.
I haven't read the leaks, but supposedly Halloween Kills gets quite violent. I hope that's the case after how lame 2018 was.
That's because it is a stock image. Simu did a photo shoot for stock images one time.
