'Halloween 3D' Being Talked About Once Again - Myers 2012?

Remember the Halloween franchise? Good old John Carpenter slasher action with a little known psychopath on the loose named Michael Audrey Myers? Well, for those of you that remember that you may also remember the reboot of the franchise coming at the hands of rock legend Rob Zombie...

Follow up:

The first film did well, the second film not so well. Immediately following the release of H2 the Weinstein Company (owners of the franchise) stated we would see Halloween in full 3D with a new director. Those plans fell through until today.

According to our friends at THR a slew of our favorite horror franchises are seeing more film time based solely on a few stars lining up and of all things the film Piranha 3D. Why are the animated, CGI laced ankle bitting Piranhas so important to our beloved franchises like Hellraiser, Children of the Corn and yes Halloween? Money!

Financial problems have plagued the company (owned by Bob and Harvey Weinstein) since its inception in 2005. With $30 million riding on Piranha 3D and another estimated $40 million on the resurrecting of the SCREAM franchise with SCREAM 4 money is the bottom line. If the films do well they fully expect to move forward with many projects including and we quote, "sequels to "Scary Movie" and "Halloween," among others."

Time will tell as "in development" is marked next to all of these projects. What does that mean? Nothing more than an idea and an IMDB page in most cases so don't expect to see Myers at the box office later this year. It does however give hope to those fans that want to see their once mighty franchises revisited, or at least dusted off and given the proper attention they deserve. This time hopefully without the bad taste left in one's mouth.

It is not true that nobody want to see remakes, because some of them do very well at the box offices, otherwise they wouldn't make them, so a lot of people like myself do want to see them.
If you don't want to watch them, just don't watch them, it's as simple as that...

Screw Nightmare Gloves, he sounds like just another idiot who thinks everyone shares his opinion.

My opinion is, I love the original Halloween.I like most of it's sequels, except the last two. I love Zombie's remakes, and I will probably watch Halloween 3d if it is made. Also, I love original horror movies, but there are remakes I like too, and right now, that remake of Piranha can't get released fast enough. There haven't been many movies in theaters lately I am interested in seeing, and I am fucking bored on my days off.

First off, I think that Rob has done a great job with both Halloween and H2. He knew what he was doing and he got the best actors / actresses together and made two fucking great movies. Halloween in 3D however... I'm unsure of. If anything, Rob should make it. And if Scout isn't in it, that would be a HUGE disappointment. If they are going to do it, do it right and don't fuck it up for us Halloween fans.

I have been a halloween fan since the first time my grandma had me watch the first original one. I loved all of them except three. I hated it. Michael wasn't in it at all which sucks dick. I think rob needs to remake the third in his point of view and continue his story of how two ends with laurie in the physco ward. I'm very interested on what will happen next. I didn't like the first remake so much but I loved the second remake. And it could only get better in his eyes now that he's got more of a vision with michael meyers. I don't think the third needs to be remaked from the original though. It sucked like I said. It needs to continue and be a brand new movie that no one has seen or can predict what's going to happen cuz it won't be like the original. Halloween franchise is my favorite. I've seen all of them in theatres that came out in my time. And I would love to see more even if they are remakes. But 3D does not need to be incorporated in the third if its made. That would be retarded. And it doesn't need to have a new director. Rob zombie needs to be the only one because its his vision. How is another director going to see his vision? They better not even try to think they can top robs halloweens cuz they can't. If rob doesn't decide to make the third then it doesn't need to be made. As much as I want more halloween I want it from rob. His work is awesome. I've loved all his movies. I say he needs to though. Or at least make an original halloween 9. Nobody has pickd up after halloween resurrection. I'm very interested on how that would be as well.

I love the original Halloween, however I am one of those terrible people who liked the first half of Rob Zombie's first remake. H2 was crap though.
I just don't think this 3D one will be good. It sounds like it's being rushed into production without any thought being put into it, as if the producers are thinking "Well, it's Halloween, so people will go see it no matter what. Plus it's in 3D! Everyone goes for that, right?".
I'd love to see a midquel about Michael's time in Smith's Grove, but I doubt that will ever happen.

First off, the guy that put his name as "fuck you", you need to learn how to talk son. That ebonics bullshit isn't gonna work. You think you will be a director? HAHAHA your pathetic! What you gonna film? Michael Myers in da Hood!!!??? HAHAHA Ebonics trash. Now, the first Halloween remake was sweet I thought. The 2nd movies was TERRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, listen folks. Stop deluding yourselves about Rob Zombie. Yes, ok his Halloween was pretty good, but not a patch on the original for sheer suspense.
I actually looked forward to H2 but when I saw his wife in it I thought WTF!!!!
As feared, and as much as it pains me to say this, it has to be the worst, most pathetic display of who wears the pants in Rob's house. There was absolutely no reason whatsoever to have her in the movie. AT ALL!!
And what was all that white horse shit. Or horseshit-Take your pick!

I actually couldn't believe what I was seeing, and even worse that it cost me 10 dollars and 2 hours of my life.
Michael wasn't Michael, and the story was TERRIBLE.
i would say to keep Rob well away from anything Halloween related in the future.
