    Don't waste your time or money. Total garbage IMO.

    There's the new Beetlejuice sequel. I think it's still in theaters, but I
    thought I also saw something about it being on streaming somewhere too.

    Don't waste your time or money. Total garbage IMO.

    Interesting.. I've heard generally good reviews about it.

    How about coming back to The Prophecy? That one about fallen angels and Christopher Walken playing ArchAngel Gabriel?

    Aww, come on. It wasn't that bad, especially if you enjoyed the first one.

    It's basically on par, quality wise, with the first one, with no advancements in technology over the years. :)

    If you go into it having liked the original, and expecting it to be a sequel to the original with no fancy frills or CGI or newage tech, you will probably enjoy it.

    Yeah, that's basically what I expect of it, at least based on the trailers I've seen.

    I guess I didn't like the plot. I honestly hated it enough I didn't
    bother finishing I went and read a book.

    It's after Halloween, now, but my Halloween "movie" of choice was It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown.

    Hopefully everyone had access to a sincere pumpkin patch.

    Otherwise, I enjoyed putting a box on the steps of my apartment building, with candy as well as some DVDs and stickers, asking people to take two pieces of candy.

    And, interestingly, people seemed to use the box the way I had hoped. I checked on it throughout the day, then retrieved the empty-but-for-two-DVDs box at about 2:30a, and it seemed like the candy steadily disappeared, and not all at once, and no, "and now it's a giant mess".

    I know the concept of trick-or-treating is mostly American, so I don't know how many kids stopped by (and I'm in an apartment building, so it wouldn't have been busy in the US, anyway), but it was nice to celebrate it in a small way that's _kind of_ like how it would have gone in the US.
