Trailer Battle: License to Kill vs. Butcher Knife to Kill With - It's a Bloody Box Office in October!

October has two huge - okay, HUGE - films opening in theaters: Daniel Craig's final Bond film (hitting the scrren at last!), NO TIME TO DIE ... and the sequel to 2018's feminist reboot of the John Carpenter classic, Halloween, this one call HALLOWEEN KILLS, in which - damnit - after ALL that trouble Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) took to set Michael Meyers up in the first one, the dang fire department helps him get out again! 

Am a huge fan of both Craig as Bond and the 2018 horror reboot (which can't touch Carpenter's original, but is still SO much better than that dreck Rob Zombie came up with - ditto 99% of the sequels within the original franchise), so am seriously looking forward to both. So thought it'd be nice to do a post featuring both trailers, to let everyone else decide on whether Her Majesty's #1 (moody/always potentially rogue) secret agent is your #1 choice ... or if October puts you in more of the mood for a knife-wielding maniac still going strong, after what has to be well past his sixtieth birthday? 

Side note: Rami Malek throwing off major Joker vibes in the Bond trailer is awesome-sauce to the nth degree. OH, and I believe that the Halloween films is also available on Peacock, either on or around the film's theatrical release date.

Leave a comment if you want; either way, enjoy!
