Has anyone ever wondered how the series would have been diff

If Jamie Lee Curtis would have been cast in all the Halloween movies?? Would the Series have worked or been better if Laurie was in every film until he finally got her? I wonder if they could have all been as good as the first too had they kept her in the story line!! Any other thoughts??

Personally I would have loved it if she would have done more, but unfortunatley I don’t think it would have mattered if she was in all of them. You need to have good writers and director’s to have a great movie.JC was a great director and he had a good writer. Also if there wasn’t a lawsuit about using the same myers mask, and It didn’t change from movie to movie then the movies would have been better, so great writers and directors and the same mask would have equlled awsome movies, and lets not forget the late great Donald Pleasence… Dean

I don’t think it would’ve mattered because Jamie Lee Curtis has said that one of the reasons why she didn’t do another one until H2O was because the stories and scripts they purposed to her sucked.

IMO I’m glad they didnt have her in all of them

I’m really not a fan Of Jamie Lee
kinda glad Michael iced her in H8

There is only so many times you can see the same heroin running scared from the boogyman. In the case of the ALIEN movies, I think it worked for Ripley because she was a strong, badass character.
I can tell you that I’m not too thrilled that Sydney Prescott is returning for Scream 4 - I have seen enough of her crying and emotional breakdowns - unless they make her into a Ripley type, she needs to get killed off early - ala Psycho.
Jamie Lee set the standard, but it was a good thing her character was done after part II. I don’t count H20 because that movie really did’nt FEEL or have that FLAVOR of the original Halloween movies…seemed more like another movie taking advantage of Scream’s success when it came out.

Well said. It also doesn’t help that H20 used half of the Scream score, too.
