 What is going on guys welcome back to the channel critical overlord here So in this video, I want to talk about the fact that Michael Myers is no longer supernatural going forward Giving what we got in the 2018 film so for those of you who are fans of the franchise You understand or you have to be in the note that the intent of Michael Myers was to keep him Very grounded kind of have that is he isn't he type of type of deal So while he was a human there was always that supernatural edge to him Of course in the subsequent sequels that followed we got a clear Definitive answer and he started becoming supernatural, but in the original film. There's nothing supernatural going on there whatsoever Surviving six gunshots isn't supernatural Falling off a balcony and living after being shot six times is not supernatural It's probably not likely that someone will survive that that's unheard of perhaps for a lot of individuals, but That's not supernatural We can't getting stabbed in the neck with a a needle again Not supernatural and you also can't just assume that lorry struck a vital cord in his neck or vital a vital Part of his neck same thing with the the chest wound the chest wound same thing. You can't just Everyone's different. Everyone has a different threshold for pain Of Michael Myers is not supernatural He wasn't supernatural in the first movie and since everything after the first film with this 2018 movie and beyond is a sequel to the 1978 film he is no longer supernatural. So I want to just address that and talk about why and Kind of just break it down because in the 2018 film He he is presumably from now what we know that halloween kills and halloween ends are coming He had to have survived that fire that we saw at the end of the 2018 film now How did he survive that fire? I don't think that needs to be shown on screen whatsoever I think that kind of humanizes him a bit too much. I don't think they need to show that at all Uh, keep the mystique intact. Do not let us see Michael Myers if in his most vulnerable state if he's not going to die Uh, we don't need to see how he escapes. It's it's not supernatural for someone to survive A seller that's on fire. That's not supernatural And I kind of the reason why I'm saying that is because the suspension of disbelief in our in the uh movie going or the movie community is very Is very it's not fair to me. It's not fair So we have this we have we wanted to spend our disbelief to watch these marvel dc films And get enthralled and entertained by these superhero movies. But then when we have A character such as Michael Myers who Is not supposed to be supernatural We can't suspend our disbelief just a little bit to have him survive a fire Presumably something that most people would have died in That's that's the reason why that's frustrating to me is because Years one of them is more rational than the other. It's more rational for a human being to survive a room That's on fire than it is for a human being to fly in the sky shoot lasers It's more rational for Michael Myers to escape a room that's on fire versus taking a trip to a conduct and like The rationality of the stuff that we wanted to spend our disbelief for is kind of baffling to me Uh, so just I feel like we should just keep that same energy when talking about certain things and realize some things are more rational than others Someone surviving a room that was entirely on fire is more likely than someone shooting lasers out of their eyes Uh, Michael Myers is not supernatural In these in these new sequels. He wasn't supernatural in 1978 film Nothing in the 78 film suggests that he is supernatural um They always kind of toyed around with it a bit. Yes, but you never got a definitive answer In regards to whether he was supernatural or not And then John Carpenter is on record stating numerous times that he never was supposed to literally be supernatural Having your fingers shot off Like he had in the 2018 film again, that is not supernatural Anyone can have their fingers shot off and survive just because you think that that's something that would kill most people Doesn't mean that it's going to kill everyone. Everyone does not die by the same stuff Maybe we in the six bullets in my that dr. Loomis shot and Michael We aren't necessarily seeing where those bullets are hitting him at clearly They weren't hitting anything vital since he survived six gun since he survived six gunshots um Those are just my thoughts on this Michael Myers is not supernatural anymore I know that they introduced the curse of the thorn in the sixth movie and all of that good jazz But going back to the original intent of the character with the 2018 film and it being a sequel to the 1978 film That renders all of the other sequels useless and they're not relevant anymore So with that being said if you are knowledgeable on the character that you should have no problem Just accepting the fact that he is not supernatural Michael Myers. He's not supernatural He isn't doing anything that is supernatural like like I said before escaping a room that is on fire and Surviving six gunshots having your fingers shot off all of that stuff is not supernatural Is it likely that someone in our real world would survive that no But the fact that he did doesn't now make him supernatural Just kind of suspend your disbelief a bit more here if you're going to suspend your disbelief to watch movies where people are shooting lasers out of their eyes or People are flying and all of this other stuff like it's just not It's just not rational some things are more rational than others when it comes to that suspension of disbelief But those are my thoughts on it Michael Myers is not supernatural some things are just objectively true and that's just an objective truth He is not supernatural anymore. There is no curse of thorn.
