Folks preferred Death over a Killer Holiday Maniac


Maybe this is will convince Rob to leave the Halloween series alone. It came in 3rd place, the twice as stupid, The Final Destination hit number 1, with Inglourious Basterds holding on in 2nd place.
Warner Bros. and New Line's "The Final Destination" in 3-D was the destination of choice at the weekend box office, easily beating the Weinstein Co.'s "Halloween II" in grossing $28.3 million from 3,121 runs on the strength of the upcharge for a 3-D ticket.

"Halloween" grossed $17.4 million from 3,025 theaters to come in No. 3, behind "Destination" and the Weinstein Co.'s own "Inglourious Basterds," which held well and placed No. 2 in its second sesh.

I saw both failed Horror flicks in earlier screenings and I realized that Horror is in a State of Emergency.

WHAT IF: Quentin Tarantino directed the G.I. Joe movie


I just saw Inglourious Basterds, which is a wonderful film, BTW.

Anywho after 2 hours and 40 minutes of this film, I realized that Quentin could have wrote and directed the G.I. Joe movie.

Could you see it? We would have an action packed, raw, gritty and America-in-your-face movie that G.I. Joe was meant to be. Imagine Quentin's version of Cobra Commander or Destro... The Baroness would've been devilish hot and dangerous.

The Joes would have been funny, real and the violent soldiers we (old school fans) would cream for.
I'm sure he would've delivered 3 hours of Yo Joe madness. I'm almost high from the idea of this fantasy.

Goddess, if I could, I would've begged him to do the G.I. Joe movie. Quentin's version would've been historic. Like Kill Bill, Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, Death Proof and his other projects, his version would have ruled the summer flicks.
