As many have pointed out before now, financially
making an Alien film and a Halloween film-

Aren't in the same ballpark.

The Alien series can go into many directions, there is a lot of space for ideas, it can work with new characters, we can always have new aliens pooping out of somewhere. While Halloween is dependable on Michael Myers, so at this point the only options were either a retcon or another remake, and considering how those failed, retcon it is.

However the idea might appeal to Disney once they take over.

And ultimately decided against it.

I was just wondering what your thoughts were regarding how well received both critically and from fans the Halloween retcon was and if you thought that because of this then the execs at fox might think twice about making an alien retcon film.
