Or at least drop some of your thoughts here in the comments.Jose Andradehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17706172563649803814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4964885632131848660.post-14473995029713615972018-10-18T10:32:43.839-07:002018-10-18T10:32:43.839-07:00Way to go, Joe - thanks for reminding of Mrs. Alve...Way to go, Joe - thanks for reminding of Mrs. Alves! I'm not usually surprised by the lack of representation in 80s horror but definitely watching a trailer from 1998, from time when you would think that things had progressed, and seeing that they hadn't, is kind of a shock. And yes, it will be great to see a new Halloween for the first time since 2002 that isn't a Rob Zombie Halloween movie.

Cannot wait.<br /><br />And yes, H20 was big doings when it came out... in the Summer. Weird timing, indeed. But I loved it, and still enjoy it, a lot. It is fun and entertains me, and that is what matters.<br /><br />As for minorities, yeah. Halloween doesn't have the best track record. But LL Cool J wasn't the first. Mrs. Alves in Halloween II was the head nurse at Haddonfield Memorial, and in 3 there is Nurse Agnes at the beginning as well as Walter, the auto repair guy who brings the man to the hospital. Sadly, both are minor roles in the film. From what I have seen of the new film, it doesn't seem to feature any minorities in major roles, either. But, will have to wait and see to be sure.<br /><br />Very excited to have a new Halloween film, and a non-Rob Zombie one. To each their own, those films just did nothing for me and I never go back to rewatch them. I like to have fun with my horror flicks, not feel grimy and sad.<br /><br />Have fun tonight!
