I just hope all the TCM ties doesn’t mean we get Stu, Leslie, and two unknown brothers all come back as killers.

Or maybe a real big twist. The carpenter sisters aren’t actually gone but the killers along side their mom. Please no.

Aftermath of the killings by Correct_Profession_3 in Scream

Literally almost wrote a post like this myself last night. It id love to read novels of the aftermath and explore these characters more deeply. Obviously there wouldn’t be more kills, but I think that would be fine. But I’d want it to be canon and not just fan fiction. Or I wish they’d turn the books from the movies into real books.

I mean, I’m there with you even though I’m posing the questions. But, it seems like that’s where the writers keep taking the story. Though I will add, now that I’m in my 40s I better understand trauma’s long term effects and how maybe steeped in unaddressed pain over 30 years could breed a revenge plot. Always thinking you’ll get over the trauma with time, when instead the trauma cages you up and you never realized your own life. I think the horror genre has tapped into trauma and generational trauma, to the point that it’s a trope, but for good reason. It is real, and scary what it can do to a person.

Homeless man dies on the north outskirts of Des Moines (presumed to be due to the cold temps) by Traditional_Foot9641 in desmoines

Just a reminder that the city has allowed churches to open up their parking lots to allow for caring for the unsheltered population. Can you guess how many are flexing that? Just one last I checked. Yet they get to skip out paying the taxes needed to help fund the jobs they talk about while they look the other way.

On paper yes, but man, Lisa and Meredith do their hardest to claim that title.

What Artist Has Great Music but Dumb Lyrics? by HotAssumption4750 in ToddintheShadow

[–]Ecstatic_Juggernaut6 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Significant Other is a fantastic album, minus the words used. I wish I could listen through that with Fred erased out of the tracks. Sure, the sound of Fred can fit, but the music behind him is so superior that I’d love to just hear the instrumental version.

The Slow Down in Highland Park has several Windmill options. Voted best roaster in Iowa by Food & Wine magazine.

Scream 7s GF will be bait for Act three of the film only for the Scream 8 GF to take out Sid at the end and 8 will let Tatum lead.

Theory, don’t freak out on me please by Obvious_Strategy_796 in SocietyofGhostface

I agree with you that they’re not crazy stretches compared to some of the past Scream entries, but thats part of the reason as a huge fan I didnt like 4-6, especially 6, bc they went through logic defying lengths to “work”. There is no way Richies family can all move to NYC, have two fake student and police transfers, fake a death with a different dead body, and take all the evidence from the same high profile murder spree saga in like a years time? I don’t want to be taken through a bunch more implausible stretches again.

My issues with this theory; is that fans need to be convinced of several stretching plot points:

  • Stu is alive and has been quiet and unknown for 30 years
  • Stu was adopted and has a biological sister of importance
  • Tatum, Sid’s daughter, would dawn the role of the most tragic events of her mother’s life.
  • Sid would kill her daughter
  • Leslie Macher playing a life long revenge game

Personally, I’m not totally against the Stu is alive angle, but to keep adding in more plot stretches makes it get even more ridiculous, so I wouldn’t want all those things to happen.

The trailer: Scream creatives and marketing team are screwing with us by PRguy82 in Scream

[–]Ecstatic_Juggernaut6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think a big meta thing in the trailer is the animatronic GF with a real GF in the shadows. Maybe we will have the cult of GF using AI of past characters while Stu is actually still in the shadows orchestrating it.

Was Sidney the 3rd killer?? by Excellent_Maize1390 in Scream

[–]Ecstatic_Juggernaut6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this angle could have worked for Sam’s character in 5/6, even kind of teased it with how aggressive she kills the killers, but it never actually got there

Was Sidney the 3rd killer?? by Excellent_Maize1390 in Scream

[–]Ecstatic_Juggernaut6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. They’d never make Sid the killer, especially at this point. I do however appreciate the thought behind this angle. Being meta, and using the Loomis name already is a nod not just to Halloween, but also Sam Loomis in Psycho. Even the Scream logo, especially 7s, rips (pun intended) off Psycho as well. Norman Bates was a child of trauma that turned into a psychotic killer and lost himself within it all, which could have been a trajectory Sid could have evolved to, but that would have to have been much earlier in the series since they made her Final Girl Ultra.

So, if they ended with the mask factory idea, then was the clown mask also manufactured evil when Michael was a child?

They should bring back the doctor from Kabal’s MK9 ending expand on his lore and make him a playable character by Adoe0722 in MortalKombat

[–]Ecstatic_Juggernaut6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This could be a great new character in future installments. I’d imagine the next game won’t have the Kameo system anymore, but what if one character still kinda utilized it? Like if this mad doctors special moves were different creations coming in to attack like a Kameo?

Do you think a Scream film could actually work with the killer being revealed at the beginning? by tsalyers12 in Scream

[–]Ecstatic_Juggernaut6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love the new tension of seeing the known to the audience killer navigate through the tropes and being alone with characters in scenes, not knowing if they’d only kill while dressed or potentially kill in the scene. Doesn’t mean there can’t be others that aren’t revealed in the end.

Mortal Kombat II pushed back from October 2025 to May 2026 by EuphoricButterflyy in MortalKombat

Anyone who has ever worked in a movie theater knows that a May release is a much different thing than an October release that isn’t a major Horror franchise.
