The Old HHN 30 Speculation Thread (2020)

[Jaden]

Guess 1:

- Giant Platypus

- Discovered by Mike ARCHER

- Archer TV series

- Stars Judy Greer who is in Halloween 2018 and Halloween Kills.

- Answer: Halloween 2018?

Guess 2 (Assuming it’s date related)

- Giant Platypus

- Mike Archer

- Archer TV show

- Aired on September 17th

- Film called “Godzilla vs The Thing” was released. This can also tie in with a Giant platypus, since both of them are giants and it’s also it was nicknamed “Platypus Godzilla”

- Answer: The Thing

* Giant Platypus
* Giant platypus is considered a chimera (monstrous creature with parts from multiple animals)
* 2018 movie called Chimera Strain
* Chimera Strain starred Kathleen Quinlan
* Kathleen Quinlan starred in The Hills Have Eyes

We need a Jordan Peele house, right?

-Giant Platypus
-Dubbed Platypus Godzilla (Giant toothed platypus roamed Australia › News in Science (ABC Science))
-Godzilla King of The Monsters
-While starring Millie Bobbie Brown, I think that would be too easy to say Stranger Things
-Also stars Bradley Whitford, whose character was loosely modeled after Rick from Rick and Morty (used in Legacy clues previously)
-Bradley Whitford also stars in GET OUT

It’s been said by the creators that they have no intention of bringing Get Out to HHN.

I must have missed it over the last 200 pages.

Understandable.

I think this low-key could be a really cool house.

Another pathway

* Giant Platypus
* Discovered by Mike Archer (paleontologist)
* Same name as Mike Archer (actor)
* Actor Mike Archer's primary credit (his big break lol) was in a movie called Easy Virtue
* Headline star of Easy Virtue is Jessica Biel
* Jessica Biel headlined the Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake
* Texas Chainsaw Massacre house

We've already had TCM at the event twice, the first being the remake then finally the original in 2016, even though I really wanna see them bring TCM 2 to life at event, it's probably not gonna happen.

TBF, and based on the most likely IPs that are rumored at this point, I’m not expecting any sort of “slasher” IP in Orlando.

 

[bringdoggle]

• Giant Platypus discovered by Mike Archer
• Actor Mick Archer was in Easy Virtue with actor Ben Barnes
• Ben Barnes was in Westworld with Anthony Hopkins
• Anthony Hopkins is in Silence of the Lambs

On the surface, I would think that would eliminate Candyman and Chucky to an extent. The term "slasher" can be pretty broadly applied, or can be much more narrow in scope depending on ones perception of what a "slasher" is. Like, Halloween is definitely a slasher. Scream would be the same. TCM fits the criteria with killing a group of people, but don't necessarily use the sharp blades you might associate with slasher. Chucky DOES use a sharp blade, but he's a doll, so that's a bit of a crossover. And Candyman has both slasher and paranormal elements.

Wow, that eliminates several of our major guesses.

Wow so no Candyman?

Alright then - that certainly clarifies things. Interesting.

EDIT: Man, I forgot about Happy Birthday To Me. I loved that one when I was younger. Haven't seen it in about 30 years tho.

Part VI is unequivocally the best F13 film - change my mind

Candyman is a weird grey area. Like you could consider it a slasher or more of a paranormal thriller.

I have some magnetic nipples, and a killing of two co-eds by bashing their sleeping bag enclosed bodies against a tree that would like to disagree with you.
