Find a flaw.

First is leagues better

Just watched the last one last night and it was amusing to see Laurie Strode develop Myers-type superpowers in order to fight him the last time.
>>
>>215579460
Completely misses the entire point if Halloween. Zombie’s only superficial understanding of horror and completely lack of understanding of “less is moe”

Let’s give Myers’s a cliche abusive white trash backstory
Let’s have a giant pro wrestler play him
Let’s have every female character talk like the strippers my wife hangs out with. She’s also in the movie

Actually though. They always parrot the same lines. Literal npc's.
>>
>>215579918
yeah i mean these movies definitely aren't for everyone but the "hurr durr rob zombie doesn't understand Halloween" argument is obviously nonsense. total baby brained way of thinking about these films.
>>
>>215579918
Giving him a backstory is retarded any way you look at it. There was no need for any Halloween movie after the first. Even John Carpenter only wrote Halloween II for the paycheck.

Rob Zombie made a fine slasher movie, but it's not Halloween. Dude should've just came up with his own character if he wanted to make an entirely different premise. Lacks creativity.
>>
>>215579726
You're using one film to judge another. Zombie's Halloween is good in it's own right and if anything the worst aspects come from his repetition of the original plotline. He should've done his own plotline when Michael returns to Haddonfield to kill Laurie, but knowing the haters of this film they'd say it deviated too much from the original.

He made a Halloween movie because it came with shit tons of studio cash. Who the fuck is going to pay the budget for some rando slasher movie about someone no one ever heard of? You?
>>
>>215579726
It's Rob making yet another character surrogate for his own fantasy life
>>
>>215579460
It being shit

>>215580585
Zombie should’ve directed a Friday the 13th movie not a Myers movie.
>>
>>215579918
Only npc is you >Uh I can’t defend this shit movie, you r edit

>>215580990
It would've been the same movie except with Jason instead of Michael.

>nuh uh, YOURE the npc
Kinda proving my point
>>
>>215580035
He actually made what remakes are supposed to do, which is reimagine a story instead of copying the original beat for beat. Well, for the first half at least, before the Weinsteins stepped in and demanded he do just that in the second half
>>
>>215580585
This
>>
>>215579460
It wasnt the best but it didnt have the ugly chick playing Laurie. Have to give them that.
>>
>>215581612
You could’ve “reimagined” it without altering the character. Have Myers stalking somone else beside Laurie
>>
>>215581738
Why shouldn't he have altered the character if it's supposed to be his version? You may not like it, but the change in itself isn't "wrong" or something that "ruins" Carpenter's version. This is simply Rob Zombie's Michael, a new thing

everything rob zombie makes is the same generic tripe; white trash power fantasies for edgelords who have a fundamental misunderstanding of horror
the way he totally fucked up halloween is the epitome of this; he tries to make michael a sympathetic character which totally defeats the purpose
any horror film that tries to guilt trip the viewer into feeling bad about anything happening to the villain is automatic garbage & was written by someone who doesn't get why the genre is compelling in the first place
dudes whole entire personality is le edgy horror man but he only likes it for the most surface level sub70 iq niggerbrain reasons
also his blatant self inserting & casting his trailer park wife in everything is so lame
he is spiritually brown
>>
>>215581770
> Why shouldn't he have altered the character

Because that’s why anyone is even interested in a Halloween movie. If they wanted to see Myers being Jason Vorheese they’d watch a Friday The 13th movie
>>
>>215581738
I do agree that adding in the backstory for Michael doesn't work for his character because the entire point is no one knows why he did it and the only guy that ever tried to figure it out arrived at the conclusion: "He's pure evil."

That being said, I really like the way he handled it, though, and apparently Zombie tried to run his ideas about it by Carpenter first and he just told him to do his own thing and don't try to remake his movie so ultimately I think he made the right choice.

Again with this dumbass talking point. There is no "point" or "purpose" to Michael Myers. You faggots are worse than comics nerds.
>>
>>215582225
The reception these movies and Ends got is what made me realize horror nerds are just as smooth brained as capeshit nerds. Always discussing art as if it was math or something. Always treating the expectations of fans as something that directors should not only pay attention to, but seriously take into consideration when making movies. Just totally embarrassing baby shit

You retards can't seem to understand that bad things happening to the villain =/= trying to make him sympathetic.
Mikey is portrayed as a complete psychopath since he was a kid. He's not a psycho because he got bullied, he's a psycho AND he got bullied.
>>
>>215582376
Not an argument faggot. Also, using "trailer trash" and "white trash" as pejoratives is brown coded.
>>
>>215582399
This. Actually insane that so many people apparently can't grasp this very simple notion
>>

fantastic movie but it could have used more adult michael myers kills
>>
>>215582160
>he tries to make michael a sympathetic character
by brutally murdering the guy who treated him like his own son? imagine being so stupid you can't even comprehend a rob zombie movie.

lol faggot
also only actual trailer trash feels slighted at that idea of being called that, because deep down you know, mentally, you are on par with any brownoid under the sun
like i said before, you are spiritually brown, if not physically
keep coping if you must, i won't see it because theres no point in communicating with a dumb nigger like you, i've already moved on :)

Your reaction images are so gay it's actually making me cringe. You should probably kys you insufferable faggot.

People who complain about Michael in this movie not being a motiveless force of unknowable evil should know he hasn't been that since the first sequel. As soon as it was revealed he was Laurie's brother in Halloween 2 it already went against the point of the original and gave him a motive. If anything Rob Zombie's Halloween movies are the only films that make Michael and Laurie being siblings work.
>>
>>215582160
The rage Zombie inspires in some people is truly amazing, like imagine typing all that stupid shit out just to say "I don't like Rob Zombie"
>>
>>215579460
>is better than any Halloween after the first one and after itself
>everyone hates it

Scout was a good Laurie. Shame he couldn't get a shower scene out of her

It’s cliche as fuck. Entire reason Halloween is a classic is because it subverted typical horror. He didn’t have some tragic backstory like Norman Bates. He wasn’t some huge monster. He wasn’t disfigured. In fact Carpenter purposely got an actor with an angelic face when Myers’s mask is ripped off. You’re expecting some ugly guy that looks like a villain and get pic related
>>
>>215582196
We're all mad here lol

What's your ranking?
>>
>>215583413
Halloween is a classic cause of the creepy iconic mask and the iconic theme song. Stop sniffing farts.

the only people who hate it are John Carpenter fanboys still seething almost 20 years later, you can ignore them
most people liked it

>>215582330
It's a bit of a give and take. Caring too much about what the audience thinks is always going to be wrong but not caring at all can be a bad idea too because you won't make any money back and get to make more. If you don't care or are somehow able to just make movies for the art of it that's all well and good, but it's good to point that out too because otherwise people who can't might run into a bad situation. Honestly, the best bet is to just try to make the best movie you can ajd to remember that part of the point is that its supposed to be entertaining to watch.

i just hate rob zombie's brand of white trash misery porn. the world he creates in every movie is so bleak you want to see some kills just to lift your spirits. munsters was good tho
>>
>>215582680
There's nothing wrong with trailer trash. Yes those types can do undesirable things but I've seen the trashiest ones give birth to the most beautiful people who go on to do great things.

>>215583102
Not a bad point but I'll say that you still don't know why he wants to kill his sister.

One thing about the Zombie movies that I don't see talked about, though is I don't think Michael wants to kill Laurie in those. Everyone is just assuming because he's killing everyone else but she's the only one he's affectionate towards. I think in the Zombie movies he just wants to be with her again and she's runnijg away from him because he's scary which makes him lash out.
>>
>>215583485
devils rejects and house of 1000 corpses are straight up comedies. he only started making misery porn after the awful experience he had making halloween which gave him depression kek.
>>
>>215583531
They reconned him being related to Laurie in the Kill movies
>>
>>215583546
Those movies couldn't make less sense if they tried
>>
>>215583563
Yeah they’re crap. Ends was good until Laurie went Girl Boss at the end
>>
Rewatching the original Halloween rn. You can tell Jaime Lee Curtis is a nepo baby because she's the worst actor in the movie and the least attractive girl but somehow has the lead role.
>>
>>215583588
I would've preferred her to be like she was at the beginning for most of the movie but it really doesn't make any sense that she ends the previous movie all Sarah Connor then turns into Martha Stewart in the next one.
>>
>>215579533
yes
