 What is going on guys? Welcome back to the channel critical overlord here So over this past weekend, this would have been around the time we've gotten Halloween kills this year We know unfortunately due to the pandemic it has been delayed till October of 2021 next year And then now Halloween ends is being shifted in October of 2022 Jason Blum recently had had to had something to say about whether or not we could expect an upcoming delay For Halloween kills again going into next year given the current stance of where we are in this pandemic and how everything is going. I Don't think it's gonna happen. Honestly and based off of what he has stated This is just adding more fuel to the fire behind my thoughts on whether or not Halloween kills will be delayed again Recently sitting down with Forbes in a recent interview Jason Blum He was asked about Halloween kills possibly being delayed again, and he just simply stated the following No, if this is still going on next Halloween. No, we're not holding it Halloween kills is coming out next October come hell or high water vaccine or no vaccine It is coming out now Jason Blum We know is attached and associated with Blum house head of Blum house We know that Halloween kills and the last Halloween and Halloween ends is gonna be distributed by universal pictures We know that universal pictures has worked out a deal with theaters We're gonna talk strictly about amc at this point since regal Regal isn't even a isn't even a factor because a lot of their theaters are closed So we know that they have we'll have a shorter release window for those universal films And then those universal films that go straight to the VOD now if theaters are not even open Universal is probably gonna shift Halloween kills to strictly VOD. I don't see them holding this movie again I don't see a lot of studios holding certain films for another year or two If this is a situation that we just can't seem to escape and is not getting any better We're gonna have to adapt and the studios are just gonna have to figure out how to make VOD work And I think that's what universal pictures will ultimately do I don't think we'll get another delay if we do it probably will be just a small one by a few days while They're still trying to figure out what to do with the VOD release strategy If that is the only thing at the time But next year Halloween kills to the best of my knowledge knowing what we know What the recent deal with universal and their theatrical release window Being being cut down and then them being able to put their movies on VOD sooner Halloween kills should have no issue coming out next year Pending theaters are still open if AMC is still open And we have no other things that come our way that make it impossible for this movie to even be featured in theaters Halloween kills should be released October 2021 in theaters for a shorter time frame and then it'll just be sent straight to VOD now if theater is not a possibility Yes, it's just gonna go straight to VOD. That's just my honest opinion on what I see happening I don't see them holding it just specifically for theatrical release I don't see it happening because they're gonna end up eventually having the film Halloween ends And then I don't think they want to be in a situation where they have these movies just piling up and they're gonna be forced to You're gonna have to release it at some point. The movies are they're not just gonna be shelved I would hope no studio does that with any particular film just for the sake of You know, I understand it's a business at the end of the day But I don't see these movies getting shelved indefinitely. They're gonna they're just gonna try to figure out a way to make VOD work And that's what Universal will do We'll get Halloween kills next year and Jason Blum is pretty confident in that himself now in regards to I want to touch Briefly on Halloween ends. We know that screen 5 is currently shooting in Wilmington, North Carolina It's the best of my knowledge is also where Halloween ends will pick up its filming whenever they decide to do that we Have had a lot of things come out about Halloween kills over the past couple of weeks and months We know the last thing we got was a teaser From the studio in July and we haven't really heard too many on too many things on when exactly we'll have an official date for Production to start on Halloween ends. I'm expecting it to be sometime in early 2021 mid 2021 Maybe closer to the fall. They have a lot of time to work with but honestly getting it done sooner you'll have more time to edit and King and work out all the kinks involved in the project give us the best send-off For this incarnation of Michael Myers that we've gotten for the past couple of years from Blum house and Universal so I honestly think that Halloween ends will start filming around early next next year Maybe March or so and then it'll wrap before the summer. I could be mistaken I haven't seen anything online couldn't find anything online detailing when the production would start Then just to talk about another thing this upcoming Halloween a lot of people I've seen everyone speculating what we could get regarding this film Halloween kills that being because we got in the teaser already showing Lori and her daughter Karen and her granddaughter Allison in the back of that truck that they got on at the end of the first at the end of the last film and We have the firefighters driving past him and Lori screaming at the top of her lungs Let him burn let him burn let him burn then we get a small shot of Michael confirming that he did manage to escape We're gonna have to wait for the film to see how unless you've read these leaked scripts that have been floating around online I've honestly read tidbits. I know I made a video a few months ago talking about that I really don't know which one of these is real or which one is fake at this point because I've read so many different things I honestly don't care about having the film spoiled for myself. I just need what matters to me is how this stuff is Executed I don't care if I know everything going into the film What matters to me is the execution. That's that's what's important to me I can easily read a good script and then that's just gonna make me even more excited to see how this portrayed how this is portrayed on Screen because that's what it comes down to that's what's gonna make the movie good and Then I do think we could get something on Halloween the like the better likelihood that we get a poster instead of a trailer is I think that's higher than getting a full-blown trailer at this point But also I don't see I don't see why we can't I believe the Batman recently had a teaser come out and that movie's not coming out for a couple years now So, you know, they can release something the same way they did in July just something a little longer something a little longer Showcasing some of the things we can expect for how long kills, you know just to build hype They can do that But I I easily see a poster being more likely than a trailer at this point from Blum house and from Universal Pictures Everyone's hyping it up, you know, Jamie Lee Curtis Jason Blum himself John Carpenter Everyone's praising it saying that this is the most brutal Michael Myers has been in a long time This is the most brutal. He's been in any incarnation of the of this character. I still cannot fathom this being worse And when I say worse not in a bad way, but more brutal than Rob zombies Halloween And I'm talking about Halloween too specifically. I just don't see that being a thing I don't think it's possible. I do think that likelihood that we get a poster on Halloween this year is Pretty strong. We haven't had anything hinting at that, but you know, I easily could see them They dropped a random surprise on us over the summer So I don't I don't see why it's unlikely for them to drop another surprise on Halloween sure It's pretty obvious they might drop it the day after Halloween just for the sake of playing with us Or maybe even a few days prior to Halloween. We still have like what two or three weeks left in the month They they could easily drop that drop it drop a trailer They wanted to there's a lot of things that could happen between now and before we hit November 1st I think it's possible that we could get another teaser something to hike up Halloween kills But let me know what you guys think about all this down in the comment section below What do you think about Jason Blum's comments on the possibility of the film being delayed again?
