History WMG / Halloween

[[WMG: Laurie will become the new killer.]]
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.

[[WMG:Dr. Loomis suffered serve brain damage from Michael's skull-crushing in the 2007 remake, which in-turn caused his personality to change.]]
It would explain why Loomis went to someone at least remotely calm to a general prick in the second film, and to someone who would snap at reporters.

[[WMG: Michael actually was in ''Halloween III''.]]
We just didn't see him because he was ''manipulating the events off-screen the whole time''.
* It's doubtful Michael somehow managed to create a successful Halloween mask company, hire people to run it, steal Stonehenge, build androids, and organise this entire, super-elaborate plan to kill the children of America, all in the span of twelve months.
* It would be a paradoxical if Michael existed in ''Halloween III'' as a commercial for "the immortal classic" ''Halloween'' (1978) appears in the movie.
* Alternative theory: Silver Shamrock is run by the Cult of Thorn

[[WMG: [[Music/BustaRhymes Freddie Harris]] in ''Halloween: Resurrection'' has a CompellingVoice and does not realize it]]
His first feat is persuading Sara 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;

''"Trick or treat, motherfucker!"'' brings Michael to a mental standstill during which he simply takes several blows to the face. Michael snaps out of this enough to grab the shovel Freddie was hitting him with until Freddie exclaims ''"no!"'' to his face. Michael finds a loophole in this vague command and throws the shovel (with Freddie still on it) away;

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 was wearing a bulletproof vest throughout the 1st movie]]
* That's how he survived the six shots to his chest!
** A vest that he got off of a Smith's Grove Sanitarium guard that he killed during his escape.

[[WMG: The upcoming Blumhouse film will be a sequel to ''H5'', but ignore ''H6''.]]
Right now they're kind of in a bind, as every previous film has featured Sam Loomis or Laurie Strode, keeping the series more tightly bound to its first installment than most other slasher franchises, and the audience seems to have lost their taste for remakes. Donald Pleasance is dead, and Jamie Lee Curtis was furious about ''H20'' not being the end of the franchise, so she probably won't want to return either. That leaves Creator/DanielleHarris as their best option for a survivor from the previous movies, bringing Jamie back to face her uncle.

The dynamic will be distinguished from ''H20'' primarily because of the age at which Jamie previously faced Michael. Laurie, as traumatized as she was, faced Michael in her late teens and was at least able to understand him as a human, if a far from normal one. To Jamie, though, who faced him as a child, Michael is the devil, and her encounter with him never let her grow up. On the one hand, Michael will have a much greater intimidation factor on her than he had over his sister. On the other hand, Jamie will be CrazyPrepared because she always knew he'd return.
** Vetoed by writer-director David Gordon Green. It's going to be a direct sequel to ''Halloween II'', a la ''H20''. My personal theory is that'll it take a similar approach to Halloween IV. A sequel set some decade later with a mostly new cast focusing either on Michael somehow returning from the dead, or a copycat killer (who may be a returning character, say Tommy Doyle). It's the best way to keep the feel of the original without screwing up continuity and pissing off the fanboys.
*** Alternatively, they could adapt Carpenter and Dennis Etchison's unused ''Halloween IV'' script.
* '''Jossed'''. ''[[Film/Halloween2018 Halloween]]'' (2018) is a direct sequel to the [[Film/Halloween1978 original 1978 film]] only.

[[WMG: TheHermit at the beginning of ''H5'' was a member of the Cult of Thorn.]]
It would explain why he didn't seem all that shocked or disturbed at encountering Michael, and why he took care of him for a year with no apparent reason.
* If he was a part of the cult, why wouldn't he try to contact any other member (i.e. Wynn, Mrs. Blankenship)? Wouldn't it have been better for them if they had him contained?

[[WMG: In ''Film/Halloween2018'', Creator/MikeMyers will have a [[TheCameo small part]] as a victim of Michael.]]
* '''Jossed'''. But that would've been funny though.

[[WMG:Michael chose to go after Laurie and her friends after Annie yelled at him.]]
Yes, he's stalking Laurie at the old Myers house, but how's he supposed to know who sits where in the classroom? For all he knew, Laurie could be sitting on the opposite side and not notice him. The first time he actually reacts to someone onscreen is when Annie yells "Hey jerk! Speed kills!", doing a BrakeAngrily. Then he subsequently follows Annie and Laurie around town. Plus, Michael goes after Annie first, watching her arriving at the Wallace house, sneaking into her car and waiting there until she gets in, then slitting her throat. If he really wanted to kill Laurie, he'd go for her first.

[[WMG: The reason Michael didn't kill Tommy Doyle in the first movie was because Tommy believed in him.]]
With ImprobableInfantSurvival averted in ''Halloween 2018'' that leaves another reason why Michael did not take the opportunity to kill Tommy Doyle when he had a chance to do so. Throughout the day Tommy was trying to warn everyone that the Boogeyman exists, but nobody believed him because he was just a scaredy kid. Michael may have decided he made for a useful harbinger and set himself on killing some of the others for ignoring the warning.

[[WMG: Judith didn't have sex at the start of the first film.]]
A lot of people have noticed how short of time for Judith and her boyfriend being upstairs in the opening scene from the time the light went off that Michael witnessed from outside to the moment the boyfriend begins to leave. Now, many people may think it was a quickie, or that the boyfriend may have pumped and run, but there is a third option that is just as likely, if not more-so likely: Judith and her boyfriend didn't have sex. There's a good chance that they got to second base, and Judith allowed her boyfriend a good view of her breasts while making out, but she may have stopped him from going farther and the boyfriend respected her enough to honor her request to wait, and when Michael killed her, she died a virgin.

*** Keep in mind that in the opening of Psycho, it's stated that it started on "Friday, December the Eleventh". Going by that, and the estimated date that the film takes place in the 1950s, the film takes place in either 1953 or 1959. If one were to assume it was 1953, it could be used to give Loomis the time needed to become a psychologist. If going by the 1959 date, that can be used to explain the above assumption that his reputation is "undeserved".
