Ashleigh, i have strong feelings on this one . First, they didn't offer Neve So Stay Groovyenough money for 6, so she walked away, melissa Barerra wasn't fired ,but she might as well have been . She said as long as Spyglass in charge , she's not returning. I loved both Sam and Tara and could've seen them as the future of Scream. But to say i don't like Tatum is a massive understatement. She was named after a victim who was horrifically ended. Tatum isn't like Sidney , She's more of a victim than a fighter, and always will be. She got taken by Ghostface 2x and could've wound up on a slab early on. If it hadn't have been for Sidney, she would've. Scream 8 has been greenlit and i'm sure there'll be a part 9, They paid alot for Scream, so they have to earn their money back. I feel the same about Mindy, She's a wannabe Randy, and now they want to make her a clone of Gale. Scream fans were divided on this one, but i actually liked it . The minute Sidney is no longer a part of the films is when i stop watching, She's my favorite final girl. I like Chad, and i'd like to have him stick around. If u like the actor, he's also in Heart Eyes, and will return for Heart Eyes 2, coming out in 2028. Another bone to pick is them keeping the name Mark and changing the last name to Evans . Why not just make it a whole different character? Her love interest was Mark Kincaid in Scream 3 and was confirmed as such in the movie 2 or 3 x. You'd think with Tatum's dad being a cop, that he would've taught his daughter to shoot. All the above is my incentive to write a Scream 7 story more like it should've have been.
Love the reaction as always Ashleigh! This was. . .really not a good movie to me lol. I loved the original Trilogy, and how everything came full circle by the end of the third movie. In fact, I liked the ending to the third installment so much that I was never really a fan of rebooting the series to begin with. The new movies have their ups and downs but I never really disliked them. This installment, on the other hand, really makes me wish they would just stop making these movies. Its almost poetic actually, 30 years later and "Scream" has finally turned into the very thing it was subtly mocking in the first installment. My Rankings: 1, 3, 2, 5, 4, 6. . .Garbage[ 7 ].
Im actually kind of heartbroken by how much I don't like this installment. Scream is my favorite horror franchise, and this one just felt really flat and uninspired. It had a few good moments, like I thought Anna Camp's performance doing her monologue at the end was great, even if i found her motive extremely questionable (what exactly was she trying to accomplish by "turning Tatum into the new Sydney"?) I also just found it insulting that I'm expected to believe Sydney never taught Tatum basic self defense and how to use a gun at the barestof minimums. I would expect any child of Sydney Prescott to be not just competent with a weapon, but a total badass. I'm also just sad Sam and Tara's story didn't get a proper conclusion. I liked the 'Core Four' dynamic 🙁
Tatum is the name of Sydney's best friend in Scream 1 that died in the garage door.
Just got it for 9.99 on Prime! yeah!
The reason Neve didnt do part 6 was because she wasnt offered the money that she thought she deserved . And now shes back for this one because Melissa Barrera was fired for a political comment she made. Jenna Ortega walked away in solidarity .. and then the director also left for his reasons. So they brought in Kevin Williamson, who wrote 1,2 and 4, to direct. People dont like this one for various reasons.. but I think its solid. The motivation was just as reasonable as the other films. As for Stu.. he originally was going to be brought back and he still might in the future. Part 8 is being written as we speak, and there are rumors it will go in a different direction again, but I doubt that with the success of this one. I think theyre gonna bring Sydney back again with her daughter. When did Chad get his throat slit? He got stabbed in the stomach and his arm was cut.
Thanks Ashleigh. I know the copyright was a pain but I appreciate your hard work.
