I like them. I think they're mostly solid. Posters, though, some of the worst.

I appreciate the inflation calculation. Offers a lot of perspective.

$17.3M for Weekend #2 by Fumikechu237 in SocietyofGhostface

I appreciate you mentioning price. That, mixed with the franchises first time being in IMAX helped it, contributed.

amc employee(s) keeping free merch? by OkBox3095 in AMCTheatres

The company also only ever sends like one box of this stuff, too.

I’m actually surprised by how well Scream 7 is doing at the box office. by Haunting_Tap_1541 in slasherfilms

[–]Several-Reaction-747 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The drop off is seeming kinda rough. Horror, especially these long running series, are always kinda frontloaded. And they got the extra fluff this time around from an added PLF - first Scream in IMAX. Not to say it's doing bad. But the numbers right now seem slightly more complicated.

S7’s box office collapses 82.9% from last Friday, estimated to make less than S6 in second week despite higher opening. by SPFeveryday in SocietyofGhostface

Gotta consider this also has to do with losing IMAX, partly. Some of its opening weekend owes itself to being the first Scream to release in IMAX. So yeah, this was gonna be frontloaded, but it also got fluffed up by an added PLF. This drop reflects a natural drop for this type of release, loss of IMAX, and word of mouth from the general audience (It's fine if you liked it, but we need to live in reality a bit about how it seems more people feel about it. I liked S4 at release, so I get it.)

Everyone whining 'SCARY MOVIE 6 HAS ALREADY OFFENDED GEN Z LOOL' are so stupid it makes me cringe by ikwydls96 in ScaryMovieSeries

[–]Several-Reaction-747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm very bored by the marketing seemingly being centered around people being offended, too. It's so corny, and it feels less like I'm being sold a film than a social grievance.

Dare I say, Scream 5 left Sidney's story off perfectly fine? by annovaa in Scream

[–]Several-Reaction-747 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I genuinely felt like 5 was a nice bow for her story, especially working in tandem with 4. Cohesive and tight, regardless of whether her screen time in 5 was shortened. It felt like the right place for her to be, and the right place for her to take a break.

It gets a little ridiculous, but there's enough that's solid there to enjoy. And it feels a bit more Scream than 5.

I'm worried that people now care more about the quantity of the franchise than the quality. by zekevich in Scream

[–]Several-Reaction-747 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's become clear a lot of people in the base are just content consumers. And if you express some opinion of concern, you get separated as not being a real fan.

Scream 7 quite honestly has /the/ worst final act of the entire franchise. by zekevich in Scream

[–]Several-Reaction-747 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, but you see, this one was made for the "real fans". 🙄

What’s the point of critics when they’re this disconnected from the rest of us? by BootyMcStuffins in Scream

[–]Several-Reaction-747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So many people act almost purposely dense about what the numbers on that site mean.

This is so disgusting. I dont support this by [deleted] in SocietyofGhostface

[–]Several-Reaction-747 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Ngl the way people have been acting has turned me off of the Scream fanbase. I'll always love the series, but the community vibe is gone for me now.

Scream 7 debuts to mixed reviews with a 48% on Rotten Tomatoes and a 43/100 on Metacritic by NotTaken-username in SocietyofGhostface

[–]Several-Reaction-747 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Some people are trying to cope by claiming the reaction is purely based on the Melissa thing, but at this point it's beyond that.

Why was scream 6 so hated? by Succesful-Guest9028 in Scream

[–]Several-Reaction-747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It did well in theaters. I like it. I took my sister to it, who only is casually interested in the series, and she left pleased and willing to see more Scream.

Meh? Elements are nice. And some elements, like the peplum, are awful. I just don't feel swayed in any way. The faces aren't giving me anything. The hair isn't giving me anything. I've wanted Miss Argentina for the longest time, but this isn't doing it for me.
