.................Really.... Besides the fact, that going to 1978 to 2018, instead of Halloween 2, is dumB as all Fkn Hell, making people wait three GD months for the Misery drop, an actual Oscar worthy film, nevermind you-know-who's nom, while they get all these trash drops in the interim, is beyond asinine.....🙄🙄😒

Should've done Halloween II (1981) instead. It's almost universally accepted that a first watch through of this series should be in release order. EDIT: Based on the reply I understand what you're going for, but given the little callbacks and references to past movies in the series I think it would've been rewarding for Jackie and Jon to see all the movies leading up to this.

Aww jumping straight to 2018? Woulda been fun to see them react to the different timelines and lore changes with the franchise

The idea was to get the perspective of someone who only saw this timeline. It's kind of unique in that way. - PLD

I assume it’s scheduled because of the video game?

Holy please cry about it more lmao

I appreciate the concept of watching the direct sequel option. It would be cool if they watch part 2 then watch H20. The only thing they miss Not watching by release date is all the references to the other movies in the franchise. Less fun an experience is some ways.

Just finished the watch. It's interesting Jackie and Jon bring up young Myers having issues with his victims having sex. In the OG John Carpenter was IDEA was the people actually being so caught up in their regular lives that they don't notice things. Such as Laurie's friends being into dances and dates more than noticing danger around them. Or even that part where Dr Loomis totally misses Michael driving behind and past him in the car because he's preoccupied. Although in Horror having sex and you die became a trope starting in the 80s.

Damn Jackie lmao. The baby thing, like the dark humor 🤣
