yeah i went on it two nights ago.....i was disappointed there was nothing but the trailer

I'm really not sure about this re-make, i'm just watching the original and i've recently looked at the trailer of the new one - i still love the original, i've jumped twice since it started and its still tense when the music plays and suddenly Myers appears, plus it has the addition of Jamie Lee (Goddess!).

The trailer for the new movie certainly looks good and the new mask is certainly appealing but i dont like the fact that they're re-making one of my favourite films, its gonna have to be something really special and although it will be original in alot of ways (hopefully), i hope it stays true to the original.

We'll see in just a few months i guess!

even the poster sucks

What they should have had Rob do is make Halloween 9 the right way, tie in some of the storylines that haven't been revisited and really give the series a jumpstart that allows it to continue while not destroying what has already been done. Lately, it just seems like studios would rather trash the past and try and reinvent their film series in hopes of making more money.

I think Rob's film will be good, but nothing will ever be better than the original because you can't recapture the look and feel of a movie that old, with no effects or budget to speak of that stars an actress of such high caliber (Jamie Lee).

I hope that this is simply a way to get fans back into Halloween, and that they will eventually make Halloween 9 the right way and continue the series, not rewrite it. If it goes the way of Batman it will be upsetting for me, just as t was upsetting that they sort of left out 4 and 5 when they made H20 and i believe that 1-5 (skipping 3) and the best of the series.

I couldn't agree with you more! The original is a complete work of art and in my opinion too much of a challenge for Mr Zombie who's only made two movies... so he'll have his work cut out for him!!

First problem I have already is the mask!! He tries to give Meyers a "soul" by making the "eye holes" bigger ... for me thats what makes Micheal so scarry... the fact you cant look into the eyes of a maniac!!

But like you said we'll see...
