[[WMG: Michael has to follow certain rules]]
To be specific, he's compelled (supernaturally or just by his own insanity) to obey the "rules" of Halloween/ Samhain. This includes not attacking anyone who wears a mask (as in Resurrection, and he's never actually harmed a trick-or-treating child).

[[WMG: Michael Myers eventually becomes The Slender Man]]
Myers started out as a sociopathic murderer with a lot of strength. As the franchise goes on, he just gets more powerful to the point that an axe to the chest fails to slow him down. Eventually, he gained enough power to become the HumanoidAbomination known as the [[TheSlenderManMythos Slender Man]]. Along with gaining new power, his mask and his face merged together to form TheBlank.

Seriously, it took him ''seven years'' to figure out that Michael Myers was [[CompleteMonster Evil Incarnate]]. He also spend much of the first film doing nothing '''WHILE A FREAKING SERIAL KILLER IS ON THE LOOSE'''.

This includes ''all'' of the movies, not just that one branch of the split timeline (you know the one). Well, not necessarily the reboot, but all of the original movies, at least. Gets shot seven times? The bullets don't hit anything important (only [[OnlyAFleshWound minor blood vessels and muscle]]). Keeps escaping? They keep putting him in a cell with a defective lock, and most of the guards are busy with the Halloween party when he escapes (so they either don't run into him, or there are few enough that he can pick them off one by one as he meets them). He happens to find William Shatner masks just lying in a haystack, or sitting in the unlocked confiscation room, or being worn by some StarTrek cosplayer. Putting the mask [[spoiler: on the paramedic]] was one of the few times he actually used tactics; apart from that, it was just wandering around and using his unusual strength and tenacity, and shying away from tightly packed groups that he mightn't be able to handle.

[[WMG: Michael is a Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds]]
In the Thorn trilogy, anyway. It is pretty obvious, given the scene in five when he hesitates killing Jamie. He only murders because of the curse, and he hates that he does. And thats why he walks slowly. He is trying to stop, but can't.

His first feat is persuading Sarah to participate in the web show against her better instincts; nothing too special, but foreshadowing things to come;

When he tells Michael to "go out, scoot, skedaddle, get the fuck outta Dodge!" Michael does so without even stopping to kill him;

Later, when he sarcastically asks Michael if he "wants to be on Dangertainment," Michael stands pondering the question until he is told to "show what he's got" and begins attacking;

When Freddie tells Michael to "come and see" him, Michael ceases going in for an easy kill and simply watches Freddie perform kung-fu poses whilst making nary a threatening move. This allows Freddie to jump kick Michael out a nearby window;

Finally, near the end of the film, Freddie makes an off-hand comment to the seemingly dead Michael Myers: ''"Lookin' a little crispy over there Mikey... I hope you never rest in peace!"'' Sure enough, Michael returns to life in the film's final shot!

[[WMG: Michael is a Power-Fantasist]]
In the first two movies, at least.

He's not like Jason who wears a mask to hide his disfigurement; nor is he like Ghostface who wears the mask as a disguise. Michael wears masks to give him a feeling of power; he ''wants'' to be an evil, serial killing monster, he ''wants'' to be something other than or more than human. Hence why he needs to wear a mask before he kills- it symbolises him turning into a monster, abandoning his humanity. Also why he writes ''Samhain'' on the wall, evoking Halloween and "becoming" a Boogeyman.

This also characterises his motives. He targets his sisters to wipe out ties to his human side; when he kills young women, he sometimes hesitates when they mistake him for someone else- [[FreudWasRight he's aroused]], which is a lingering trace of his humanity, probably one he's not used to since he was locked up when he was a boy. The rest are either in the way, or killed because he's actively trying to be a monster, though with the girls there is probably some sexual element to it that he might not fully get.

While the director's cut was the perfect ending to Zombie's vision, the producers will follow with the theatrical cut of Laurie being committed to Smith's Grove, and apparently becoming as insane as Michael.
