The creative team behind Marvel's first (and now cancelled) Halloween movie, Jack-O-Lant-Man, gathers to process their grief and introduce their roles in the failed production.
"I guess what I would have done differently is write a different movie entirely."
"I'm just mad for my wife. I'm mostly mad for my wife."
The creators discuss the obscure comic origins of Jack-O-Lant-Man, including his response to Watergate and a rare Marvel/DC crossover where Batman kicks him out of a party.
"He was Stan Lee's response to the Watergate scandal, which was about to happen in about four years."
"Batman threw out Jack-O-Lant-Man, not knowing that he was a superhero."
Cinematographer Chris Donnall complains about the impossible request to shoot the entire movie through the 'POV of a pumpkin,' resulting in frames obscured by triangle eye-holes.
"You wanted to shoot through a pumpkin multiple times. Through a pumpkin."
"I don't think that any of the scenes make sense if you view them through a standard camera and not two little triangles and a big mouth."
