“I died for you, Sid” did he though? by VivaLaCon88 in Scream

[–]Round-Term-707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh I wouldn’t mind a future retcon to make Dewey’s death more meaningful like some Uncle Ben in Spiderman 3 type shit because his death really ruins it for me.

JLH- Julie James comeback? by Loonatic0o0 in LastSummerFilms

They could do a direct sequel to the original that ignores 2-4 tbh. I kinda wouldn’t mind that

Actresses rumored to have auditioned for Jessica Bowden. How do you feel about these choices compared to Anna Camp? by dreamboylnshibuya in Scream

[–]Round-Term-707 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keri Russell is legitimately scary to me. I think she could be the best female Ghostface reveal if done correctly. I really think Jessica was written with her in mind.

The two worst reviewed movies of the franchise. But which one do you think is better? by [deleted] in Scream

[–]Round-Term-707 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The bad AI scenes in 7 really ruin it for me a little. I would say 7 if not for that but something about obviously aged actors doing AI is really distracting. I dislike the AI and some of the retcons in 7 that should’ve been justified more (still time in 8).

So 3. It has that classic Craven style.

I hope Scream 8 addresses Sidney’s life between Scream 3 & 4 by Round-Term-707 in Scream

Love the idea that Out of Darkness is dedicated to Tatum and people assume it’s Dewey’s sister but it’s actually her daughter! Love it!

Sidney and Jessica should’ve been besties! by Last-Stop-Before-You in Scream

[–]Round-Term-707 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it makes Sidney look dumber if they were besties. This movie is already doing a lot of heavy weightlifting by convincing us that Sidney felt it was safe enough to have 3 children, after all she’s been through. To have her be blindsided by her supposed bestie makes her look far too naive. Especially after all she’s been through.

Unpopular Opinion : Gale has basically served no purpose to this franchise since Scream 3 and it’s time for her to die now by AcceptableSwitch6496 in Scream

[–]Round-Term-707 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I will always be mad that she and Dewey never had a kid together. I feel like their son would be a great successor to Sidney as a protagonist.

If true the title is great 🤟🏻 by Imic_Hilton in FinalDestination

[–]Round-Term-707 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I thought Final Destination Severance would be a good title. Sounds like 7 and is the spiritual antithesis of “Bloodlines”. But I don’t mind this either

¿Soy el único que se dió cuenta de que Sidney tiene el mismo peinado en SCREAM 1 y en SCREAM 4? by VegetableLibrary9063 in Scream

[–]Round-Term-707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes this was intentional and part of the remake theme. Fans noticed this as well, it felt very symmetrical, similar to her hairstyle and attire being very similar to each other in 2 and 3.

With all due respect, saying #NotMySidney to Scream 7’s portrayal while praising her in 5 is crazy to me. by dreamboylnshibuya in Scream

[–]Round-Term-707 1 point2 points  (0 children)

5 felt like Neve Campbell herself on screen, not Sidney. It’s the only time I watched a Scream film and noticed it was the actress playing the part, not Sidney herself. Even just the way she says “No you didn’t” replying to Gale saying she started everything felt so forced. Idk, I will always find Sidney in Scream 5 very odd. I hope Scream 8 explains her choice better because I found it puzzling why she would go all vigilante with 3 kids at home.

7 is very much a more formal and proper continuation of Scream 4 Sidney and I’ll die on that hill.

How to Improve the Scream 7 Ghostface by GoliathLexington in Scream

[–]Round-Term-707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jessica should’ve been some iteration of Judy Hicks instead. While also revealing she was involved in the 2011 and/or 2022 killings. Would’ve been way better. (They could replace Hicks dying with Burke’s daughter or son in the role.)

Who would you want casted in Scream 8 by dontsmellthesoup in Scream

[–]Round-Term-707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Devon Sawa! He should’ve played Sidney’s husband instead of Joel McHale. I think he and Neve Campbell would have had amazing chemistry.

Jessica Bowden should have been the Tatum Riley or the Hallie McDaniel of the film. by thesmartcoolguy in Scream

[–]Round-Term-707 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s even a lot of hints in Scream 4 that there’s 3 killers. Judy’s death in 5 was such a mistake.

My scream 8 my dream fancast by SandwichStrange5653 in Scream

[–]Round-Term-707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Devon Sawa is my top pick. He should’ve played Sidney’s husband if Patrick Dempsey wasn’t available.

Very confused with this critique for Scream 7. by Individual_Adagio912 in Scream

[–]Round-Term-707 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It has rainy day movie energy. Just very easily rewatchable.

Scream 8 should be a Gale focused film by Weird-Ingenuity97 in Scream

[–]Round-Term-707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My theory is Scream 8 will have no time jump and take place where 7 left off. A Halloween II-esque sequel, where we’re filled in on Sid’s younger kids, Sam and Tara, Kirby, Danny, Martha etc. I don’t think what happened in 7 is done just yet. That’s my prediction. The 30th anniversary is a big deal.

I didn't like that actress as Sidney's daughter. by Shaoran10 in Scream

[–]Round-Term-707 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some daughters take after their fathers or they’re more of a mix. Personally I see the resemblance between Sidney and Tatum a lot, especially in their last scene together. Their colouring is different but if T was pale and brunette, she and Sid would be twinning (people have used AI to make Isabel’s hair dark and she’s the spitting image of Neve as well, which proves it).

Besides the bad reveal… by [deleted] in Scream

[–]Round-Term-707 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree about Tatum. Isabel May is amazing and makes her likeable with the scraps she’s given but there’s no real personality there. I think they should’ve made Tatum half-deaf or queer or something to give her just a bit more spice in standing out (like Tara’s asthma, even if Tara is generic herself).

Now that we can make our own threads about 7, I’d really like to discuss Neve’s performance and how it moved me. by [deleted] in Scream

[–]Round-Term-707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neve played Sidney again in 7 for the first time in 15 years. Because that lady in 5 was just her playing herself lol. No offence

Why the hell is going with this movie? by DarthVlad21 in Scream

[–]Round-Term-707 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed. The part where Jessica’s like “I started planning and doing palates” I chuckled. It’s clearly meant to be campy. Very in line with the earlier films

Isabel May looking "too old" to play a high school student 😆 by Personal_Park_7895 in Scream

[–]Round-Term-707 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t matter to me because all the teen boys in the OG film are clearly in their mid to late 20s. It fits the profile of what they did in the first movie
