  1. Yeah, Halloween 2018 was great and planned real well where they went all out. It seems they burnt themselves out with that film though; made it to where they couldn't top themselves after, leaving them with not as much idea on where to go with the next two films. They were contracted to do a trilogy though, but mostly blew their quality on the first one, while making things up as they went along with the next two. If there was as much forethought for the whole trilogy as there was for the first film out of it, Corey would've been introduced a film or two earlier instead of the final one, giving him a bit more development and time with coping or with the granddaughter before he would become the next Michael Myers or whatever. He wouldn't have to play as an important a part until the final film, but you would still see the setup we got from him as the accidental killer babysitter, and the town giving him shit for it while Michael's still out killing instead of just hanging around in a sewer tunnel. At least, that's how I would've done it. Michael's niece they had the right idea with in the original sequel timeline which Corey was a homage to as pointed out, but Halloween 6 botched it for her which they then had to soft reboot to the H20 timeline, and so on... The actress who played the niece also played a different character in the Rob Zombie Halloween timeline though, interestingly enough. I think Corey had "recharged" Michael when he brought that cop that was following him into Michael's sewer lair, and when Corey said "show me how you do it" as he was holding the guy down as Michael stabbed him to death, that was more or less when Corey became the next Myers. I think Michael wanted to see how Corey would do, so he stepped back a bit to see how Corey would do things. Corey failed Michael's test when it came to confronting Laurie however, and that was when Michael returned and took the mask back. I think either Michael let Corey borrow the mask to see how he would do with it, or Michael wasn't strong enough during the moment when Corey was wrestling him to take the mask from him, and Michael took that personal which was why he got violent with Corey when he went to Laurie's house. I don't know, but like I said, the nature of their relationship was sorta meant to be ambiguous it seems. As far as Corey's motivation for killing, yeah, it didn't start out the same as with Michael's, though I figured he would start out with the people that had wronged him before like those zoomer band geeks. I saw some had ridiculed Corey for getting bullied by them, but I think Corey knew that assaulting minors in public as an adult would be a bad look for him after the reputation he had already garnered. Basically, the first encounter I would've given a pass, with that being their freebie, but the 2nd encounter after leaving the party I would've fought back in self-defense. I also wouldn't of flattened their tire even with Laurie offering the opportunity to do so since that would've only aggravated them to get back at me later. Why band geeks of all people as the bullies though? I guess the football player bully trope had already run dry, but that seemed kinda weird. Also one of the girls that was with them was all "knock it off guys" each time they picked on Corey. If I was her I would've left them and not been in Corey's crosshair whenever he would snap, but that was just another one of the bad writing parts.

    New releases thread

    I went ahead and got Persona 5 Royal. I initially ordered the Steel Case version with the delivery date being the 25th but on Monday the date changed to sometime in November. So I cancelled it and got the standard version which arrived today. Other than the inside of the steel case, it probably wasn't worth it. I do plan on getting Sonic Frontiers and Pokemon Scarlet when they release. Gotta spend money on games I'll have no time to play!
