TheRobcat Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 I get that some people aren't super into what it has to say or how it says it, but last year everything Ifirt confirmed showed up at the event, including originals, so I take it Trick r Treat was just fully confirmed. So far we've got It, Stranger Things and TrT greenlit by Ifrit. I am cautiously optimistic. Also, that Robert Bliss guy who keeps commenting on Ifrit's posts sure seems like a cool sexy genius. He must be so smart and interesting. Is this working? No? Fine then. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jediwhit82 Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Hollywood twitter posted three hints today, if it's as IP heavy as we think it's worth looking into for us as it's probably shared. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regarding the Terror in the Aisles clue... would they be talking about Texas Chainsaw again? Tobe Hooper obviously died within the last 5 years, but what about the other movies involved. Has anyone significantly involved in The Thing or Halloween passed away recently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each hint isn't going to give us an answer. The hints must be combined. Ring of Fire was written by June Carter Cash. It was sung at Woodstock. It was made famous by Johnny Cash. I can never remember Murdy's age range. Finding the SoCal band Is proving more difficult. If I'm correct on the movie: Ring of Fire + Alien = The Thing EDIT: The SoCal band is going to be a band formed prior to 1981. Murdy graduated in 1985 (yay for Murdy giving his graduation year).

So thoughts are that they're switching from Wednesdays to Mondays this year huh? Interesting. Wednesdays might be a good day of the week to add a "related sister event" to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only one of the hints is true. John said that two of the three hints he released are red herrings, so while it’s usually the case that the hints have to be combined, it’s not for this one 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, I graduated in 1985. I'm still missing why we'd be doing The Thing again. Honest to god, wasn't that at HHN just a few years ago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honest to god, wasn't that at HHN just a few years ago? The Thing (1982) has a prequel called, you guessed it, The Thing (2011). We got 2011 because it was the release year, but the original is way better and A&D most likely grew up with it. It has ground breaking practical effects and such, where 2011 has some practical effects, but focuses more on VFX visually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope not as I’m now pretty impatient waiting for official dates so I can plan my trip properly. I agree, I hope both Orlando and Hollywood release their dates soon as I also am someone who needs to request off my vacation as early as possible. Especially since Halloween falls on a Weds will they do a Weds 24 to Weds 31 run? I can understand waiting on house announcements it is still pretty early however dates need to be released soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved The Hive at Orlando, it was my favorite original nah nah nah, what I'm trying to say is that when Conjuring got dropped last year, they could've given both coasts ToT pretty easily, but instead let A&D make something original. Although, now that I think about it, it could've just been because ours was farther along in construction when Conjuring got dropped and Hive better fits Conjuring's aesthetic.... (on a side note, I enjoyed Hive quite a bit as well, loved the makeup and the Nosferatu scene) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honest to god, wasn't that at HHN just a few years ago? HHN Orlando? We had it in 2011(I was a freshman in high school that fall), but they did It to promote the prequel/remake on both coasts. Orlando hasn’t touched the original(‘82 version) since 2007 with Carnival Of Carnage. Universal Orlando has done it before with IPs. they’ve done Psycho probably about 4 times. They’ve done People Under The Stairs 3 times. They’ve done An American Werewolf In London twice. The Thing is a Universal property, just like the ones above. So they can bring it back without a hassle. Edited March 20, 2018 by Maxmoser 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxmoser Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Out of curiosity, since The Weinstein Company is now bankrupt. I wonder if we may get some of their IPs we’ve been waiting for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
