The Future Of HalloweeN & Michael Myers

[TheShape2005]

I searched for this and didn't find it anywhere. Now Moustapha Akkad's Son MaleK Akkad Said in an interview with Fangoria Magazine that there are only about 3 more HalloweeN Movies left in the Franchise to be made. Incldeing HalloweeN 9. and said that the only thing that will kill Michael Myers is the Box Office! So with That in mind. What I want to know is how Many more Do you think are left?

only 1 more after HalloweeN 9

3 More

5 More

10 More

Donald Pleasance's # 22 stopping point? Although He was Just Kidding

2 More

or no More

What is your thoughts on the Future Of HalloweeN & Michael Myers?

[MichaelMyers]

I said at 22. How do you know that he was kidding?

I didnt vote becuase I think Halloween 9 will be the end of Michael Myers. At least I hope it is, but there is a strong idea that it may be the last one.

Taking Jason jabs at me are we? You honestly think a 8th sequel to Halloween will just be the begining? Mind you a sequel that will likely take 5 years in the making to release.

Who really knows what will happen. You as a Jason fan should know a Series can be dead but not out and over. Look at Jason X. bombed. The Freddy VS. Jason Release. The film brings in a total of 93. Something million. I know it was 2 different fan bases watching it but still it worked. And who knows we could be in for the begging for many more HalloweeN's to come after HalloweeN 9. Or you could be right and it could vary well be the last one. It all depends on the fans and how much we like it.

Yeah I'm not getting into this debate. I'll say that the series is virtually over while you say its still got life. Guess we'll see.

Everybody has the right to their own thoughts. Well that is the only thing we can do is just wait and see. And if your right I will PM you a message and tell you straight up. You were right and I was wrong!!!

This is a very difficult question to answer because we have nothing to use as a measuring stick. Out of the 3 major horror franchises, none of them have officially declared and ending yet. Hell even, chucky is still pumping out films. Obviously 22 is out of the question, but I could easily see a halloween 10 assuming H9 doesn't sink the ship, which I dont' think will happen.

IMO I hope they do make 22 HalloweeN films if their Straight to video or not. but I just don't think it will happen. it really all depends on us the fans. if we like then Enough to keep going and seeing them then they will Continue to be made. but if more are made like Resurrection. ""WHICH I HAVE NOT ONE DAMN PROBLEM WITH"" then I think some or even to say most the fans might start losing interest. But I voted for at least 5 more maybe. Hell these movies might never end. All of them Chucky, Freddy, Jason, or Michael. With new fans being born everyday and new generations to come. It may never end!!!

[thetodd]

I voted for one more after H9. I think the series should end in 2008 on the thirtieth anniversary of the original.
Then again, will it go out with a bang or a whimper? I could also see the halloween series run into the ground, reduced to straight to video sequels, and finally fading away.
Think it can't happen?
Just ask Pinhead.

[MMyers89]

I voted one more after H9. I say do something like H4 and H5, have one story continue through two movies. H10 would be the last one...ever. No more after that.

[6Michael6Myers6]

22...i mean if the series is repaired (if it can be) I think they can churn many more movies out...let's see, H9 to link the two storylines, 10 and 11 to involve stephen and John, 12 and 13 the sara moyer story, 14 the death of sara moyer, 15, 16 and 17 the story of Molly and John's son, 18 a new guy emerges to battle evil, 19 the story of a new guy and his son, 20 and 21 his son, and 22 the son kills Michael

¿Y su serio? Wouldnt you like the series to mantain what creditability it has? Mama Mia!

[Michaela_Myers]

boogeyman87, I have no idea who you are, but I love you, lol.
ANYWAY, I voted one after H9, just cuz 10 is a psychologically satisfying number... I really have no better reasons... It would just make me and my analness feel better. :)
I thought I heard somewhere that 9 would be the last, though. *shrug*

And also, if people could let go of the fact that H4-6 are not coming back into continuity and H9 will NOT tie them together, I think they could use that time to come up with actual "realistic" scenerios. When I hear people still proposing the idea of H4-6 coming back I picture them sitting around a table and me there playing Dr. Evil saying "ZIP IT!" everytime they say "yeah but kara and baby ste.." "ZIP IT!". "Yeah, but what about Tommy and da..." "ZIP IT!".

Wouldn't that be stupendous?

[MyersFan927]

My vision of what should happen in the future of Halloween will never come true, but it's probably the best idea besides perhaps killing the series. Michael should be put to rest while there is still some credibility and deceny left and before the series takes a real pathetic turn for the worse. Then we pick up with an anthology of other things which could occur on Halloween night, with a horrific nature of course. People may very well go for the idea if marketed properly, and it would be a great chance to explore other scenarios. At this point, the series is working on a decline. Why not start fresh and let the other slasher series make fools of themselves.

[NCamp]

I say 12 is a good stopping point. Yeah ill be different

[JCU]

While I am as big a fan of the Halloween series as the next, there comes a time in which one needs to bow out while you still have dignity. Out of all of the films made, only three, in my opinion, are truely good. I, II and H2O. The others, while being somewhat entertaining, leave me shaking my head. After the sequel, each one seemingly became more and more rediculous. H2O was a surprise though. When you enjoy something, you never want it to end. That is obvious by what I am reading here. Seriously though, how many times can one see Myers being shot, run over, beaten to "death", electrocuted, etc.., before it gets old?

As far as I am concerned, this series can never be saved. The only thing the higher up's care about is money while you and I care about story. If the story was so important, it would have been saved years ago and not taken off the beaten track. You have a series with a central figure that has 97million paths to choose from. This franchise is getting like those choose your own adventure books. Thes best thing would be to tie up all loose ends and give some finality and closure.

[war dog]

I think they'll go to ten then hang up the mask for a LONG time, and after about ten years of rest, and I am sure a stock pile of new ideas, they will see if the fans want yet another Halloween night with our favorite masked mute. . . . .

yeah that's what I was going to say they might let it rest for a long time and then boom come back after some time and start it again with something really fresh. let all the other storys they had just be gone but not forgotten and start something fresh years later. then the new fans will see something cool that hasn't been around and it might give the series a re-birth?

yeah never know- good point War Dog

[MyersFan75]

I agree.
It would be nice if they had a long stopping point and then brought it back suddenly w/ something fresh.

I just scared myself a little while ago...
Think.
If the series NEVER ended...I mean,
Think.
We are fans that have stuck w/ the series forever and even w/ all the flaws and plotholes and continuity errors the series is great.
I can't imagine myself long gone and then my great great great grandson watching a Halloween film in some future. Then only to go down into some old basement and find my Halloween collectibles, find an old, beaten, ragged dust covered VHS copy of what? Say, H5. Damn, I think that if I hadn't watched a Halloween movie in like 10 something years I would watch H5 first. I don't know but something about it w/ the farmhouse and stupid clown cops, the house, the mask, the flat out 80's feel of the film is just plain cool.

I'm sitting here typing and crap and just wondering what that would be like...

[DarthMyers]

I dont think theres anyway to honestly predict this. Each sequel will dictate another by the box office it makes. If H9 is ever released and does poorly then that will be that for the most part. It's not like there is a hidden cache of an overall storyline that is to be played out over time. Each film is written individually.

Yeah Im hoping IF/WHEN H9 comes out it will be the last and final...and hopefully kick ass....but I voted for one more after 9 because you never know........

yes I agree 100% but I just wanted to see what the fans on here wanted the Series to do! not trying and Prodict what will happen!

[6Michael6Myers6]

In all honesty, I think there will be one more after H9 b/c where can the series go now? I mean, if H9 is kickass to the fans and the box office maybe 2 or three more but i doubt any more than that.

they may start doing an anthology with Michael and stuff with new people! that could be cool if they do it right! going right to video!

[Hallow-Scream]

i think the series needs as many as it can get
which hopefully is 22

[SonOSam]

IMO they don't need to do anything w/ relatives at this point. They could introduce some characters...develop them enough and let MM do his thing. Have some scares. It shouldn't be all that complicated. Every few years a lot of us look forward to another Halloween movie. Hopefully H9 will be a good one. I say keep doing them as long as they have good writing etc. Go for it. It's not just "do it for the fans" , but have a good script and make a good movie.

but before that, they could at least attempt to tie up some loose ends...i mean something before that happened...tell us what happened to Tommy, Kara, Danny, Stephen, John and Molly and then start a fresh new story with new characters...that would be cool

yeah I think a lot of the fans on this board would be happy with something to connect the storyline in! I do want them to connect the time-lines but I just hope they leave thorn out of it. maybe say like thorn tried to control Michael but Michael was to powerful something along those lines!

[Raechull]

I would love it if 9 connected with 4-6. That would kick ass but they probably wont becuase people who arent die hard fans like us on the board wouldnt understand. So they kind of have to follow HR :(

Moustapha Akkad said that in HalloweeN h20 and Resurrection they made Michael more human becuae the more human he is the more you can beleive in him! if you look at the stuff that happens to him it's something a normal person could with-stand and with H20 acting like Laurie hasn't known about Michael doing anything for 20 years and he appears! it will just be all weird to think now that o well now it all happened! the series would make no scene really! IMO I think they will jut keep going with HalloweeN Resurrection or start something new all together right after Resurrection's story! I just wish they didn't get into the spot their in now and did it right with 5 & 6 so this wouldn't have happened!

I love JLC and H20 and Resurrection but damn it all we have been backed into a corner

I know what you mean. but we just have to learn to live with it or don't watch anymore and no more will be made.:( I don't like that idea to much!!!):(

[6Michael6Myers6]

but even without us die hard fans there is still the general public who could give a flip about any logic or continuity in horror movies...which is a shame (I have been saying that alot lately :D) :D

[6Michael6Myers6]

and so with the general public the movies will still be made until even they get tired of them

[MyersFan75]

Yes, we are backed up into a corner.
Like I mentioned before they should have had the small connection in there w/ H20 so the series would stay connected JUST in case they needed to go back to Thorn.
Of course, since they left the connection scene in H20 out, there is no way to revive the stuck series.

It would be too hard to connect them after two sequels and it was H20's mistake when they decided to do what they did.

:(

Like I said we just have to live with it! I know it sucks to some. I'm ok with the stuff going on now! I just love all the movies and have for 15 years but were just going to have to like what we get! or just turn away. which I never would Do!!!:mad: ;) :( :)

Even HalloweeN III

For some reason I think there would be three more. It just seems like they are running of out ideas.

Nice first post Slaherfan! I hope they do make it to 22. but I don't think it will. unless its STV. anyways welcome to the board!!!

[slasherfan]

i doubt they'd make it to 22 without going straight to video either, but i'd still rent and/or buy them!

[6Michael6Myers6]

i think 22 is a ridiculous number to have in a series (only if they are not pieces of crap)...but then again what they could start doing is just have many different storylines (different michael myers stories that all branch off from HII which is kind of what they have done so far (one with jamie lloyd, one finishing the character of laurie strode, and another with sara moyer) i wouldn't mind that...it would be kind of cool actually

I wouldn't also mind 22 but also it is a lot and I don't know story wise if fans will still be into it after 13 of them! I just don't see 22 at all! maybe like 13 or 14! maybe! just depends how far it can go before anybody can't stand it no more!!!

I agree that 22 is alot...but think of the great visuals...10 years from now, Michael stalking victims with his knife in one hand and a cane in the other;)...lol...then again, since evil never dies, maybe it never gets old either!

and thats another thing! Michael is getting up their! this year he will be 48! how much longer are they going to keep him looking so young? and Strong! like you said I guess that evil never dies and the evil will keep him alive for a long time!

Although some may piss fire over the idea of a remake of Halloween at a certain point that may be the way to go and then continue. Yes, that's right make a part 2, 3, and so on based on the remake. It may be crazy, out there, and seem even stupid, but I say go for it. Do it because people think there's no way. do it because there r so many awesome possibilities. You could call it The Insane Edition or something like that. :) :)

Ah, but if all goes well (fingers crossed) that's part of my proposal that Malek went over......expanding the series more through other mediums in between the film releases.

[MMyers89]

Wow, thats great news, you penning the movie, and books that add other stories to halloween universe. Its a good time to be a fan, it seems.

[Nightmare13]

Halloween 10 should the end. If the series ends at Halloween 22, I'd still be watching. :D

I'd just like to see Halloween 9 connect the storylines (but like that will hapen), then Halloween 10 could be the "final showdown". :)

[totempoll]

If the sequels are going to be as shitty as H:R was than I would say one more after H9. If they're better, stop at 22.

Just to let you guys know, I'm working on acknowledging all the films in the series with my treatment of 9 I'm supposed to show the producers this summer. I'm doing everything I can to make the timeline flow realistically from 1-8. I won't go through great lengths to explain everything.....I know I'll stick to the 9 storyline as a film alone in its own right and it won't work with rehashing all the old stuff, but, well, you get what I'm doing.



BTW, that is Nick Grabowsky, who, at the time, is pretty much the writer of H9.

I'd just like to see Halloween 9 connect the storylines (but like that will hapen), then Halloween 10 could be the "final showdown". :)

I'm with ya on that, Mista J. :D
I think H10 would be a good occasion to end the series...10 sequels...that's a lot. Although I'm such a hardcore fan, I think it should really end at number 10. But as J said, if there were 22 like Moustapha said, I'd still watch them all. :D

[Nightmare13]

Even if it isn't the end, Halloween 10 should be the "Ultimate" Halloween. Sorta like what Friday The 13th: Part 11 is supposed to be. But, not to OTT.

That's a good way to look at it but I still can't imagine how certain films wouldn't connect in some way.
They should be connected because in all of the films except for H3 there are characters that are related to others in different films so there can't just be a big void w/ the characters as if nothing happened.

I will never turn away from the series but I should be able to freely express my anger towards some of the choices the producers have made.
I would be fine w/ the films but they deleted the H20 scene in which it connects the middle trilogy w/ the "Laurie" films.
If they kept it in, then they could always just go back to it but now there is no way it exists and is just being ignored.

By simply noting it's existence but NOT going into detail they could always focus on that later in a different movie.
But since they chose not too there is no way to keep the series inline because their are now two seperate storylines.

I'm making sense, but I think you guys might be confused.

Anyone know what I mean?

There was a scene in H2O which actually connected thorn with Laurie??? Tell us more!! :)

I can help! :D

I've never read it, but from what I've heard, their is an early draft of the Halloween H20 script that featured a student of Keri's reading a book report on "The Halloween Murders". They tell the story of Jamie Lloyd, then (with the guilt of leaving her in Haddonfield) Keri runs from the classroom in tears. :(

good post!

and on that note nils go to Halloweenmovies.com go to the interviews section and read the interview with Robert Zappia! you can read it in their if you want to see it for yourself!

and here is the script!!!

INT. CLASSROOM - LATER THAT DAY
Students file into the class, sit in their assigned seats.
KERI stands behind a desk at the head of the class.
THE BELL RINGS
KERI

Good morning, class. Mr. Elliot's

out sick this week...turns out it was

his appendix.


The students ad-lib "COOL," "ALRIGHT," "YEAH."
KERI (cont'd)

Your compassion is overwhelming. But

I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that

he gave me the list of students who will

be giving their oral reports today.
The students groan.
KERI (cont'd)

I thought so. First up is Sarah Locke.
Sarah crosses to the podium at the head of the class,

stands behind it. She reads off a stack of index cards in

front of her...
SARAH

(rapidly)

"The Haddonfield Murders" by Pamela

Whittington. A totally gruesome

depiction of serial killer Michael

Meyers' path of destruction in a small

Illinois town.
Keri sits up in her chair, uneasy. Of all the books...
During the following, we INTERCUT between the described

flashbacks and Keri, as she struggles to maintain her

composure as the memories come flooding back --
SARAH (cont'd)

The riveting tale begins with young

Meyers repeatedly stabbing his older

sister to death on Halloween night in

1963.
BEGIN FLASHBACK.

During the previous dialogue we see the correlating scene from

"Halloween" where young Michael Meyers in clown attire murders

his sister.
SARAH (OS) (cont'd)

Years later Meyers escaped from Dr.

Loomis' care at Smith's Grove Institution

and returned home to Haddonfield.
During the previous dialogue we once again see the

correlating scene from "Halloween" where Michael escapes from

outside the gates of Smith's Grove in Dr. Loomis' station

wagon.
SARAH (OS) (cont'd)

It was there that he stalked Laurie

Strode...Meyers' younger sister...
We see the correlating scene from "Halloween" where the

Shape watches Laurie Strode through the screen door as she

approaches the old Meyers' house.
SARAH (OS) (cont'd)

What followed was a night of terror

as Michael Meyers slaughtered one

innocent victim after another.

Strangled some... stabbed others...

in the end it was a Halloween of

unprecedented carnage.
We see a MONTAGE of murders from "Halloween" and

"Halloween II."
END OF FLASHBACK.
ON Keri, eyes swelling, struggling to keep the lid on her

emotions...
SARAH (cont'd)

Ironically, Laurie survived that night,

but was said to have died in a car

accident years later... leaving behind

her only daughter, Jamie.
BEGIN FLASHBACK.

During the previous dialogue, we see footage of young Jamie

from "Halloween IV."
SARAH (cont'd)

The book maintains there is truth to

the rumor that Laurie Strode is actually

alive and well and living under a new

identity. Claiming that she gave up

her daughter for adoption to protect the

eight-year- old from her psychotic Uncle.

Bad idea. Last Halloween, Jamie's

mutilated body was found in a barn just

outside of Haddonfield.
We see Jamie's demise as depicted in "Halloween VI."

END FLASHBACK.
ON Keri, unable to stand it any longer. She grabs her bag,

heads for the door.
KERI

Excuse me...
Keri darts out of the classroom.

The students sit in stunned silence, baffled. Sarah collects

her cards and heads back to her seat...
SARAH (cont'd)

That was like so rude.
INT. GIRLS' RESTROOM - Minutes Later

Keri bursts through the bathroom door...locks herself inside

an empty stall...drops to her knees, barely making it over

the toilet before tossing up her breakfast.

Why, Oh Why, couldn't they have put that in. It would have been the perfect scene, then the rest of the movie could have just been the same, just that little scene would make me like H20 and even H8 more.

Come on, how long would that have been? 3 fucking minutes tops?! ARRRRRRRRRGGGGGG! :mad:

Just write the curse off as not being real. Ending when Dr. Wynn died or something.

[Nils]

Hey James and Chad!! Thanks for the info!!!

I would have loved that scene in the movie...it would have explained everything, it just doesn't feel right with two different storylines. Maybe H9 brings them all together again! That would be kickass! :)

thats what Nick Grabowsky is going to plan on doing! or so he said!!!

[Nils]

Yeah I read that James posted something like "hey, I hope you won't break your promise and bring back H4-6" and I was like "oh no..please not!" (I thought so, I didn't post it ;)) But if he's gonna connect them and not start the Thorn again, I will LOVE H9. :)

Ah, cool. :)

But come on, that was great. It shows how much Laurie's been affected by Michael, and how sorry she was for dumping Jamie. :(

[Silverpsycho]

I said three more although this question really leaves me up in the air. I have never really thought about the whole series coming to an end, but it must have been in the back of my mind. I believe if some good writers (who are also HalloweeN fans) come into the picture, then we may very well get up to the 22 Donald Pleasance point...which would be a very nice thought. I don't know, I guess I am so happy with 1 - 7, that I don't really think about the future of Halloween. After the disappointment of Resurrection, I'd like to see the series pick up again, but if it doesn't...then I may not want to even continue after Halloween 9. I guess I will just have to see what happens with Halloween 9 because that is what will make my decision for me.

[MyersFan75]

As others have said, H20 would basically have been the same film and keeping the Thorn storyline wouldn't affect it because it was left out yet still mentioned in earlier drafts. If only they kept that in then after Resurrection and Laurie dying they could focus back on the Thorn storyline and maybe stretch out some more sequels w/ Tommy, Kara, Stephen, and Danny and end the series in a great way.
But of course, they left it out and now the series is split. If only they left it in, the focus of H20 would remain the same yet at the same time there would be no storyline split so everyone would be happy.

Damned producers.

[Chaosboy]

The Box office is the only guy who can answer that.

[God Of Thorn]

i say 1 more after 9

[Scratch]

I think it's pretty much guaranteed that Michael will be on the big screen for my grandchildren's grandchildren. They'll make those movies and spinoffs of those movies until they stop making movies. They never stop. They're still cranking out new movies of characters we've first seen over eighty years ago. If we haven't blown ourselves up yet, there will still be a new Halloween film being released 50 years from now. You can take that all the way to the bank.

[hallofan78]

I would say stop at 10

Thorn might be briefly mentioned, but my take on the series is fresh though it'll take into account all the previous films. I want to move forward and not rehash all the details of what may or may not make Michael tick. I want a tight, adult, suspense-filled screamfest. :D

yes that would be vary nice and I'm all up for a connection with the 2 timelines if it's done right! if it's not done right then H20 and Resurrection are going to look kind of weird!

I'm hoping Nick can write it vary well that it does work!!!

Ya, but H20 and H8 already make H4-H6 look weird. I'd rather see them look good and H20 and H8 look weird, because those 2 are the worst of the series.

well I like 4-6 just as much as 7 and 8! so I'm just hoping HalloweeN 9 is made just right for the connection between storylines! IF THEY DO IT!

but it's not set in stone so who knows! HalloweeN H20 was going to connect but didn't! and Resurrection sure didn't! the Akkads will make that choice and they just might indeed keep going forward with forgeting it!!!! or maybe they wont! who really knows. Only time will tell!!!!! and like the rest of you I can't wait!!!!!!:D

I'm ok with any choice they make! Just as long as Michael don't die in it!!!!

[slasherfan]

Originally posted by TheShape2005

LOL...Michael die? I don't see it happening, unless the box office kills him. And hopefully H9 will be done well so we don't have to worry about that!

[Demonswrath]

Yes, I hope it is also done well (who doesn't). I would really be disappointed with the series and the Akkads if they would not allow the series to be tied up when they have a talented writer as Nick to do the treatment for it. I'm sure he will make it all make sense and be an interesting take on the whole thing. Personally, I think it would be great to bring Mitch Ryan back to play Dr.Wynn one final time. If not for H9, maybe the next one after that. For all that don't care for Thorn, (and that's fine) he could even have a short role in the beginning and have Michael butcher his ass after a wee voice over introduction. I think that would diffinatly give closure to all those that appreciate Thorn and for those that don't like it. Seems like a short and simplictic way of ending that part of the series to me.

[slasherfan]

Agreed. It would be simple to put it in there to tie things up, then just move on. That seems like what they TRIED to do in HR. Unfortunately, it didn't work so well.

how did it seem to try and Tie 4-6 together in Resurrection! Resurrection says he was living under the house for the last 20 years. no way at all do they try and Connect them in that movie??

not one way at all! harold the Clown puts that out in the start of the film!!!

You took my meaning wrong. I wasn't saying 4-6 were tied in. I was saying they tied in the Laurie storyline and then moved on. Sorry for the confusion.

[Mzeppelin]

Maybe 3 more...


I would hope at least that many more.

[thetodd]

As long as there is money to be made, I doubt they will ever officially end the series. It will likely just fade away. We'll probably wake up one day and realize that there hasn't been new Halloween movie in the last 15 years. That would be my guess as to how the series will end.

Seems like the logical thing to me. If the sequels get worse, it may go to DTV, then just fade out all together. It's a shame that the Akkad's won't just give the series a proper ending, before running it in the ground, but I see it happening that way eventually.

[lauriestrode]

I think they should go to 22 Halloween is the best horror film of all!

[M.Myers2005]

There's alot to cover, u kno. Alot of good storylines ppl have out there. So we gotta just wait and see what develops.

There are good storylines. The problem is, the Akkad's don't seem to want to use them (or at least execute them well). It's all about the money now.

Sequels don't necessary make a franchise better...there is a point to stop, otherwise it will end up like...well you know. More and more sequels aren't always good for a series. ;)

[Nightmare13]

Sequels just prove that a series has stood the test of time. Halloween has done this. But, sequels aren't always a good thing. :(

[physco09]

I think they need to make two more including H9. In the H9 they need to have Michael get revenge on Busta Ryhmes as Freddy, Deckard and sara moyer. Then i gess they could bring back sheriff Brackett to try to save them, but all of them die except sheriff brackett, he ends up beating michael some how. And through the whole movie u see a dark figure around like the man in black from H5. The person would be Laurie, and somehow she helps sheriff brackett beat Michael, without him knowing. Then in H10 sheriff brackett knows michaels not dead and comes to tell john, Lauries son, that Michael is coming after him now. And once again Laurie is thedark figure, but this time he catches Laurie and she reveals her self to him. Sheriff Brackett and Lauries son is surprised because they thought she was dead. She tells them that she is trying to help them beat michael without lletting michael know she is alive because then hell come after her. So michael kills alot of people like he always does. He kills Jouhns wife, the girl from H20, and some of his friends and some police. Michael is about to kill Laurie and her son when Sheriff Brackett saves them but he dies while fighting Michael. But that gives Laurie and her son just enough time to finally kill Michael Myers in some really clever and cool way.

Then they can end the series. It would be perfect, so what does everyone else thinks. I want here everyones opinion. TELL ME WHAT U LIKE AND WHAT U DONT LIKE.

[KruegerLives]

I heard Busta Rhymes only signed a contract for a cameo in Halloween 9. That can only mean he dies!!!!!! :) :) :) Oh, I also think the Halloween franchise should end at Halloween 10. They are great movies but the problem with sequels is the original idea becomes strained. The sequels are beggining to forget the main focus of the Halloween films: The Revenge Of The Repressed. H20 Was Excellent for this but Resurrection unfortunately did not live up to it. I hope we have two more good movies. Hopefully pretty soon!

well Resurrection didn't live up to it but lets just say it failed! it sure did try tho just nobody wanted it.

[physco09]

Any more opinions on my idea for the next two Halloweens

[Demonswrath]

Yeah. I would like to see Laurie stay dead. Sorry brother, but Jamie Lee Curtis doesn't want to deal with that character anymore. Eventhough it started her career, she is not down for doing it again. She was cool enough for killing her own character in the last film. That is the only reason why she came back for the last film. As far as John, good luck on casting another. Josh wants nothing to do with the series. We gotta deal with the cards that have been dealt. That's just how it is. Brackett's return is not out of the question. I have written quite a few ideas on bring his character back and not being stupid at that. That's just what I think about it all.

I second that. Might as well forget about JLC returning and the same probably goes for Hartnett. I won't say never on that one, but JLC's pretty much a sure thing.

[SonOSam]

If the series is to continue I think it needs to move forward from the family thing. I'd like to see Brackett and other characters return, but maybe not Myers' family. Or maybe they could somehow reveal Myers various relatives throughout U.S. It seems that the original intent was to have Michael return to haddonfield and kill on Halloween. Anyone could be his next victim. that seems scarier. i think they need to go back to that.

I also think they need to sort of not have Michael be shot or stabbed anymore. I mean that shouldn't be the big end of the movie exactly. We know he can't be stopped. Even when they get to a point where they wanna end series they should still allow for it to seem that the boogeyman is out there...alive...and waiting.

[MyersFan75]

Yeah, they need to end the series like the original where you aren't left with a content and happy ending.
If they come back w/ a good film and tie it in w/ the middle series and then end it w/ a feeling that he is still out there waiting, it will totally rekindle my flame for the series.

If they come back w/ a good film and tie it in w/ the middle series and then end it w/ a feeling that he is still out there waiting, it will totally rekindle my flame for the series.

That's always how I envisioned the series ending. Not with Michael dead, but like the first, just gone. Out there somewhere, just waiting.

Always leave a sequel ending, like Joy Ride.

I wouldn't want him dead either. But it would be interesting for the last film to end a wee like the P-Cut. Have Michael's power be stripped from him in his defeat. But Michael walks off. Still evil, just not super strong and immortal anymore. We could have the best of both worlds. A happy ending, but that the killer is still out there.

The date on the imdb website says 2006. It also says the title is Halloween: Blood Line. I still wouldnt call this official though. The date and the title are I personally think, based on rumours currently circulating the internet. Probably started by desperate fans.

[KruegerLives]

The latest information I've compiled over Halloween 9 is as follows. Halloween 9 was originally called Halloween: Asylum but has now been changed to Halloween: Blood Line. It is set for a 2006 release (Like thats going to happen!). People who are currently working on this movie say: "It is the best Halloween installment yet." The cast basic information can be found on the imbd website. The story is meant to involve Michael Myers awaiting execution for his crimes in the previous movies. There is alot of questions meant to be answered. Moustapha Akkad was meant to make an announcement on which direction the film was meant to be going in, in January. There has still been no word. I dont know whether this information is official or rumour. I'm a fan too and this is just information I found and thought I would share with you. I really hope it is official...

[Demonswrath]

If it was official, we would hear it first on this site. Don't bother going anywhere else for Halloween updates. They will just fill your head up with bullshit.

IMDB is just full of shit. It is basically all fan-submitted information.

Me too. If you listen to IMBD, you're gonna get lied to. Stick to getting your news here. ;)

Take it from me, those rumors aren't true; however, I do know there was a team of writers working on it, then after some time with the Miramax/Disney split, it all turned to dust. Nobody's working on it at all.....except me. And I hope it's just my luck things worked out like they did, because I wanted the project to fall into my lap in the first place.

Yes.
If the series is to EVERY end, :rolleyes: , they need it to be w/ Michael still alive and gone.
Then I always imagined them playing the original theme not unlike H20 did.

[horror83]

After Halloween 9 there will be two films left in the series. I hope by H10 New Line Cinema will own the rights to the Halloween franchise. They will make the series better as they did with TCM.

I to hope that New Line will get the rights. They just know how to market that type of movie. There will also be more chances of crossovers if the horror icons all become owned by one company. How do you know there will be two more after Halloween 9. I dont think thats been officialy announced yet!

More crossovers would be good, and no two more movies after H9 hasn't been officially announced. Sorry I sounded so sure but it's just a gut feeling I have.

Ten installments are enough. Wait about ten years and do a remake...

Your enititled to your opinion. But personaly, why not? It's inevitably gonna happen and if it does, I do have faith that it'll probably be better than the original...just my thoughts.

:eek:

You believe a remake will be better than the original?
It isn't inevitably going to happen.
It is possible, but now certain.
I am sorry but I just don't see how you can think a remake of the original would actually surpass a classic like Halloween.

[Nightmare13]

I don't think Dimension would let the series go to New Line? Or is that up to the Akkad's?

Imagine Bernard Hill as Loomis in a Halloween remake.
I think that if it was ever made Bernard Hill would be the PERFECT choice.
Look at the photo - the eyes, the beard, the wrinkles, the nose, and the facial expression is perfect.
He also has the right build for Loomis.

[MMyers89]

Yep, just without the long hair, he'd be great.

Of course.
I am seriously thinking of getting on Photoshop and making this dude into Loomis and begin comparisons.

Hmmm.
I'll pick Other.

If I were making 9 and 10. I'd like to see 2 ending films, one leading into the other. Part 9 explaining things ad basically setting up part 10, which is a fulyl atmospheric piece like 1 and most of 4. Set up 10 to be the final contractually Halloween film in the main Halloween continuity (get rid of Ressurection as part of the continuity, but use some of the actors, especially ones that died in Ressurection, in it as background characters in 9 and/or 10). Have a memo at the end of 10 saying it is the final part of the continuity past, present, and future, so that it can't be screwed with. Basically explain and close up the continuity in 9 and 10. I'd end 10 much like part 1, which was a perfect ending for the series.
Then Akkad can make other Halloween films with different twists (like Jamie or Laurie becoming a 'new Michael Myers', or other twists that wouldn't really fit well with the mainstream Halloween continuity (besides a possessed Jamie sort of doing that). They can also use the idea started with Halloween 3, in making non-Myers Halloween films.
That way you win 2 ways. You have the mainstream Halloween continuity ending on a good note and closed up, and you also have a continuation of the series.
