#163: Scream Franchise Wrapup [BONUS] · What's Your (Least) Favorite Scary Movie?

0:06
Hello, What's your least favorite scary movie?
0:10
Hello and welcome to What's your least favorite scary movie?
0:14
The podcaster we talk about the good, the bad, the ugly and the
0:18
absurd, and all of our favorite and least favorite scary movies,
0:21
because we believe every horror movie rightfully has its fan
0:23
base. Even if we don't always get it.
0:25
My name is Travis. My name is Jesse and we are back
0:29
with another. Bonus episode live, uncut,
0:33
mostly undrawn entirely. Yeah, we usually use pictures
0:38
for these. Yeah, that's true.
0:40
We're wrapping up Scream officially.
0:44
We covered Scream Six last month and now we're going to do as has
0:50
become a tradition here at the end of the franchise, we are
0:52
going to rank the series. On a gut feeling.
0:57
And then we're gonna go and compare it to our actual in
1:00
episode End of discussion ratings, right?
1:04
Yes. So Travis, what was your method
1:10
for ranking these movies? Like you said, man, I just went
1:13
with my gut. I felt like out of the three
1:16
franchises that we've covered so far, that this was the easiest
1:20
for me to rank OK, mostly because there are less movies,
1:24
so there's like less to shuffle around.
1:27
Yeah. But like, the way that I feel
1:29
about these movies are all pretty strong.
1:32
So I just kind of didn't really have much of an issue.
1:35
Okay, what about you? So this is one of my absolute
1:40
favorite franchises of all time, horror or non horror.
1:47
And God, I could talk all day about the.
1:52
Why? Each movie deserves a different
1:54
place on the list. You know, I could go back and
1:56
forth arguing with myself. At the end of the day, I went
1:58
with what, Which movie am I constantly going back to to want
2:03
to rewatch? Which one do I think about the
2:06
most when I think of Scream as a franchise?
2:09
The only one that got a little bit weird for me was Scream 6
2:11
because it is so new. Yeah.
2:13
So that was a little bit tricky. And so maybe you know whenever
2:17
Scream Seven's eventually released and.
2:20
We've had time to let all of these sit with us for a while.
2:23
It'll be different, yeah. And like we said, we will cover
2:27
that. Whenever it does come out, we'll
2:29
just continue the franchise. It won't be part of franchise
2:32
coverage anymore. We wrapped this much of it up.
2:35
Yeah, Okay. Cool.
2:38
Well, all right, so we've got our rankings.
2:41
Yes, we already made the list each ourselves, so let's go
2:47
ahead and do it. We're gonna start from our least
2:48
favorite and work our way up to our favorites.
2:51
And I'm gonna give a very hard disclaimer for myself right now.
2:55
These are all so closely ranked. Like it is not, it's they.
3:03
I love these movies so much and saying like one of them in the
3:07
franchise is like 6th place for me doesn't mean that I think
3:10
it's like a bad movie. Or even necessarily that.
3:13
I think it's the worst of the bunch.
3:14
It's that we don't do ties with this.
3:17
Yeah, yeah, you gotta pick one. So it's really just like
3:21
splitting hairs for me. I'll agree.
3:23
Yeah. I mean, I think this is the one
3:26
top to bottom like the most quality of franchise we've
3:29
talked about. Stacked Yeah it it's it is hard
3:33
to it was a little bit hard to pick my top three I think, but
3:37
after I did that my bottom three were a lot easier to pick.
3:40
Yeah. Okay.
3:42
All right, cool. So you start off since this was
3:45
your favorite. Okay your franchise, baby.
3:49
As of today I'm putting screen 5 aka 5 Cream aka screen 2022.
3:58
I go back and forth on this movie so much, but I think
4:01
because of that, at the end of the day, it makes the most sense
4:04
for it to take that that ranking for me.
4:07
Yeah, out of all of them, this is the only one that I hear you
4:10
like wave on just a little bit. So yeah, I think it's fair for
4:15
you and that it would be at the bottom.
4:18
Yeah. It is also my least favorite,
4:21
the franchise. When we talked about the
4:24
episode, I was very clear that it is my least favorite, and
4:28
this one is my. Least favorite?
4:29
Yeah. I think we both still rated it
4:31
pretty high, too. Yeah.
4:32
I mean, it's just, you know, still a good horror movie, still
4:36
a good movie. But stacked up against the rest
4:38
of the franchise, I just don't think it holds up.
4:40
And that's one of the only ones that I really can pick apart a
4:45
couple of times. The rest of them, I can't really
4:48
do that as much, but I can really hone in on the things
4:51
that I don't like about 5:00. Well, pause.
4:53
It was such a transitional. Phase for the franchise, even
4:57
more so than Scream Four, was because it was like a whole new
5:01
team involved. New director, new writer.
5:04
Yeah, it was a whole new and new cast.
5:06
Yeah, it is tough. I mean, but I don't know.
5:11
I'm not gonna give it any slack because of that because it is
5:15
part of the franchise, so it's gotta be ranked somewhere.
5:18
All right. All right.
5:19
What's your next least favorite? Again, this is very much
5:23
splitting. Hairs scream.
5:25
Three. OK, I care to explain what.
5:31
Really. It was just that I felt stronger
5:33
about other ones being higher on the list, yeah.
5:36
Not like I know. People like to shit on Scream 3
5:39
and that's fine. They're entitled to their wrong
5:41
opinions. I think it's a fun movie.
5:44
I have. I have a lot of fun with it.
5:46
It's just. Splitting hairs?
5:50
Really. Yeah.
5:51
Scream Three would probably be at the bottom of most people's
5:54
rankings. It's mine, too.
5:58
It's my second least favorite. I still really, really like that
6:03
movie. I think it's a lot of fun.
6:05
I think it's the most campy Scream movie that we get, which
6:08
is great because I like it whenever these franchises make a
6:13
like, turn into camp. And it's this.
6:18
This series has comedy, but this was the most over the top.
6:23
Yeah. And you also have the novelty of
6:25
having one ghost face, which is nice.
6:35
I just think from a writing perspective, it makes things a
6:39
lot harder for yourself to, like, have to account for a
6:42
single person instead of two. I like that personally.
6:29
I know a lot of people like having two ghost faces, but
6:32
like, I kind of like that it's something different from the
6:34
rest of the. Which is why I think they lean
6:45
more into the camp. They're like, OK, let's just
6:47
rent that shit up, make a house explode, no smell in the gas,
6:50
nothing. I love the house exploding
6:54
scene. That is one of my favorites.
6:56
I love it too. A lot of people hate it.
6:58
How can you hate a house exploding?
7:01
I mean, it's always fun. Also, Patrick Warburton's in it.
7:05
Dew Drop. Dew Drop.
7:08
I fucking love the nickname of Dew Drop or Dewey.
7:11
He will forever be Dew Drop. We will be meeting David
7:14
Arquette the way to. We will call him Dew Drop.
7:17
I might have him sign. Can you sign that dew drop?
7:21
Actually, yeah, if I ever meet Patrick Warburton, that might be
7:25
better for him, but I don't see myself ever meeting him.
7:28
'Cause I, you know, I I don't think he would.
7:30
He's not. He wouldn't be any of these
7:33
cons, I don't think. Maybe Comic Con.
7:35
Yeah, I'm gonna say I could see Comic Con, but maybe not like a
7:38
horror based convention. OK.
7:41
What's your next one? OK.
7:43
My next one was Scream 6. OK?
7:46
And I was mostly just because I'm trying.
7:49
I I am giving it room for growth.
7:53
It's it's so new. I don't want to like push it way
7:57
up there and it just be like a novelty thing, OK.
8:00
I think it's really, really incredible.
8:02
It's just going against other movies that have like.
8:07
That longevity for me already, Yeah, you know that that's
8:10
really its newness is what is hurting it.
8:13
Yeah. Don't knock it though, for you
8:15
know, like. If you knocking it for being new
8:17
and I'm just saying no, I'm just trying to say like, you know,
8:19
like like trust your gut man going on gut fillings.
8:23
If you really, really enjoyed it and you feel like you might
8:26
enjoy it more than some of the old ones.
8:28
And like, you know, I don't think that there's anything
8:31
wrong with putting it there. Like we've had time with it came
8:33
out in February. We've watched it twice now, you
8:36
know. I feel like we can say that we
8:39
like it a lot confidently at this point.
8:42
Well, and now that we're done covering screen, it's gonna be a
8:44
lot easier for us to just put them on casually again so we
8:47
don't have to worry about like, oh, are we covering this too
8:50
soon? Yeah, so that'll that'll help
8:53
because we can easily put that in the rotation.
8:56
That's gonna be tough with Saw because that's like our go to
8:59
just put shit on movie. Ohh.
9:01
Shit, we watched a marathon of it last weekend.
9:04
I like that is it's. It's gonna be a little bit hard,
9:08
but I think we'll find a way to make it work because the hardest
9:11
one is gonna be in six months when we're getting close to saw
9:14
six. Yeah, man, 60 boy.
9:19
OK, so my next least favorite one kind of there in the middle.
9:25
Or your next most favorite. My next most favorite, I guess.
9:28
Yeah. Number Speed glass half full
9:30
here. OK, my #4 movie Thank you.
9:32
Number #4. #4 the number 4. Movie The phone is actually
9:39
Scream 4. Okay.
9:42
I like Scream 4A lot. Don't get me wrong, I know that
9:46
you love it. It's one of your favorites.
9:47
I know that we have people that listen, that it's also some of
9:50
their most favorite, but stacked up against the rest of them.
9:58
It just feels right being #4. For me, it is it's.
10:06
I don't know, I like the remake aspect of it, but I don't know.
10:13
It just feels like a four. I feel like the others are above
10:16
it, Okay. So I can't really explain myself
10:20
more than that. All right.
10:23
My third is Scream Two. Okay it.
10:31
It's definitely a solid entry, and I think if you'd asked me
10:34
six months ago where it was, I would say it was my #2 on my
10:37
list. But I don't know.
10:40
After going through it and picking apart like the franchise
10:43
as a whole, 3 feels like the right right bit right placement
10:48
for. It Yeah, yeah, yeah.
10:49
Because I like that they're in college.
10:51
I like that. It's still kind of lighthearted.
10:53
We've seen Sidney grow up some, but she still like, has a little
10:58
bit of that, like. Youth in her.
11:01
And by youth, I mean like the things that come along with
11:05
youth, like Mae the Tay and stuff like that.
11:07
She's a little bit more hardened, but she's still open
11:09
to experience. I think it's an important part
11:12
in her arc, yeah. And I do like the opening of it,
11:17
I do too. Yeah.
11:20
So that's that's where that's at for me.
11:22
It's my #3 also. OK, that's one of those ones.
11:25
Yeah, it used to be my #2 also, but like it learning about the
11:32
making of it. I think, you know, you kind of
11:35
learn how things were originally going to be and then you see how
11:38
it plays out and it kind of does make you like see some of the
11:43
flaws in the movie because they had to rush certain things or
11:46
they were rewriting things same day changing characters.
11:49
Like the Killers are probably some of the weakest in that,
11:53
like Billy's mom. It makes sense.
11:55
I get Billy's mom, like, but Timothy Olyphant, like, they
12:01
definitely just threw him in there to be like, well, nobody
12:06
gets this guy and this one didn't leak out.
12:08
So, you know, it has to be somebody that nobody expected.
12:11
Yeah. Scream Two is kind of like your
12:13
friend. That's really solid.
12:15
You can hang out with, you can go to, like, you know,
12:18
commiserate with. But you also know if you go out
12:22
to the bars with, she's gonna get a little sloppy drunk.
12:24
Yeah, like, exactly. I think that's a great way to
12:28
put that, but I do love it a lot because I like the set pieces.
12:33
I like. I mean, it's our last movie with
12:35
Randy. Randy is one of my favorite
12:37
characters. It introduces the ridiculous
12:40
Dewey limp, which is always a lot of fun to watch.
12:44
Also, Speaking of to me, the all of time we get Billy's.
12:50
One of the best line deliveries in the franchise.
12:54
You even have the the whole debate in the movie class and
12:58
Randy gets the I like that Randy gets something wrong and I don't
13:02
know if that was meant to be intentional or not.
13:04
OK, you clearly don't remember this from when we recorded, so
13:07
it was the guy that he was arguing with kept messing up his
13:11
line. And they finally got like a good
13:15
take, except the guy said the correct line.
13:18
So Randy, just like, well, Jamie, Jamie, yeah, he just
13:23
rolled with it and said the incorrect line and it was the
13:26
only usable take they had. So that's how that happened.
13:30
That's kind of funny. Like, I kind of just like, in a
13:33
way, he ended up getting the wrong take, and that was the
13:37
best take. Yeah.
13:39
Well, OK, whatever. I like it.
13:41
It's a fun movie. I mean, I think that one is one
13:43
of the stronger openings. I like the crowded movie
13:45
theater. Strong cast.
13:49
Yeah, you get Buffy in it. Yeah, yeah, 97 was a great year
13:55
for SMG. And then you get the I know
13:57
people hate it, but I fucking love.
14:00
That I think I love you. So what am I so afraid of?
14:04
I'm afraid that I'm not sure. Yeah.
14:07
Ohh, man, I love it. That's good.
14:09
It's cheesy. All right #2.
14:13
Scream Four. I knew it.
14:14
Yeah. I love it.
14:17
It's. I liked the opening within an
14:20
opening within an opening. I love Emma Roberts, obviously.
14:24
I love how blatant she was about making it a remake.
14:28
I think that was like a great commentary after the aughts, was
14:31
just full of remakes. Yeah.
14:33
And this is also the first scream I got to see in theaters,
14:36
so it holds a special like nostalgic.
14:39
In my heart, I think it's interesting that there's also a
14:41
culkin in it. Yeah, I'm always fascinated.
14:45
Whenever a culkin is a movie, I'm like, my God, this is a
14:47
culkin. And it doesn't matter how many
14:49
times when you've seen that, that and the Michael Cera.
14:55
With the comic book. With the comic book.
14:57
Oh, Scott Pilgrim, thank you. It's a different culkin for that
15:00
one. I know.
15:00
I don't even know their names. I'm just like, oh, it's a
15:02
culkin. It doesn't matter how many times
15:04
we watch those movies, every single time a culkin appears on
15:07
the screen, we're like, oh, it's a culkin.
15:09
It's like like we see them in a while.
15:12
Don't, don't, don't spook it. There's a.
15:14
Culkin It's just like, I don't know.
15:16
It's just like an amazing experience.
15:19
I can't explain it. OK, my #2 is 6.
15:24
OK, so I feel pretty comfortable after 2 watches and after a
15:30
couple months placing this one as my second favorite, there was
15:35
a time that I almost thought of like it as tied with one for me.
15:39
OK, I think it's just honestly, it is the most fun.
15:45
It's the most fun screen movie because it has the most
15:49
entertaining set pieces. Radio silence was fully, like,
15:54
settled in at that point. They've gotten us introduced,
15:57
their characters. They had a lot of fun just going
16:00
for it. Plus the return of Hayden
16:01
Panettiere. I didn't even mention her when I
16:03
was talking about Screen 4, so yeah, she's great.
16:06
I loved having her in that too. That was a good way to bring her
16:09
back. And I like that they made it to
16:10
where she can be connected with all the other screen movies
16:13
going forward since yeah, she focuses on Ghostface attacks,
16:17
so. I wonder if she could be kind of
16:19
like the new Dewey. Newey.
16:21
No, we already got Chad, dude. Chad is the new Dewey.
16:25
He's been stabbed too many times to not be the new Dewey.
16:27
Come on. The essence of Dewey was like
16:29
split in half and half of it was gifted to Chad and half of it
16:33
was gifted to Kirby. I like that there is one thing,
16:37
one criticism I do have about that movie is their first movie.
16:41
They were so fucking hell bent on saying our movie has stakes.
16:46
Like we whenever people get stabbed, it matters.
16:48
But then and scream six. Most of the Core 4 gets stabbed,
16:54
Chad gets fucking eviscerated, and they all live like there
16:59
were no stakes in that movie. Everybody just survives.
17:03
Seriously, The Core 4 is intact. Kirby's there, just the killers
17:07
die. That's it.
17:09
And Annika. But we all forget about Annika.
17:12
They forgot about Annika. Nobody cares about Annika.
17:15
Also, Tim Robinson. Tim Robinson.
17:18
I don't think he died. Oh, he did die.
17:20
Yeah, he did die. OK, well, never mind.
17:22
I think it would have been better if they actually had Tim
17:24
Robinson's body there like it was.
17:26
It was just his voice. But.
17:28
I can see that being like a bit. And I think you should leave
17:31
like he's a dead body, but he's like making a face.
17:34
Yeah, I. Can see that too.
17:37
But yeah, I mean seriously. Like just the set pieces.
17:40
The ghost face is so fun to watch from that.
17:42
The fucking shotgun scene in the Bodega is my favorite.
17:47
And like the setting of New York City, like, it's just it's cool.
17:51
I like it a lot. Yeah.
17:53
All right. And we both obviously know what
17:55
our scream. Yeah, the original Scream is our
17:58
favorite. Don't fuck with the original.
18:00
I think that, I mean that's been the case for all of our
18:02
franchises so far. But like the original, like it's
18:06
really tough to take over an original whenever.
18:09
Like it's a long going franchise because is a ongoing franchise.
18:13
Usually it's because the original was so solid.
18:15
I could maybe see that happening with saw with me.
18:18
It not being that's the one was my number one.
18:20
That's the one that I am thinking that we can.
18:22
Make I am pretty sure that the original Friday the 13th was not
18:27
my #1 Sir. Oh, you're.
18:29
Right. I'm very vocally anti Friday One
18:33
I was, I was wrong. Yeah.
18:34
Four was my favorite in that. What was your favorite?
18:38
I can't remember it. Manhattan.
18:40
Ohh, that's right, it's Manhattan.
18:42
Wow. Yeah, the New York ones, man,
18:44
they were always ring tie. You go to New York, NY, dude.
18:47
We need to take Halloween to New York.
18:49
I saw that thing where they, like somebody shared the image
18:52
of Halloween quotes, and I want that.
18:54
I want Michael Myers in space. I think it's.
18:57
Great. Michael versus Jason in space,
19:01
do it. Yeah, do it.
19:04
I mean, do we need to say anything about the original
19:07
screen like it's a fucking classic?
19:09
Yeah, I mean it just, it doesn't get any better.
19:13
It did so much for horror. I like the meta shit.
19:18
I understand a lot of people, don't I?
19:22
I'm a person that I have consistently used both horror
19:25
and humor to cope with various things in my life.
19:28
So the merging of the two, acknowledging the tropes,
19:31
acknowledging how silly it can be, and acknowledging how it can
19:33
still be scary even if it's overdone and it just it really
19:37
appeals to me. I don't know.
19:40
I just, I I love this franchise, yeah, so much.
19:44
It means so much to me. I even though I wasn't old
19:48
enough at the time to really understand the impact it had on
19:51
the genre, I still appreciate what it did do because it
19:56
introduced a whole subgenre of slashers that I really enjoy.
20:00
I love the scream like whodunit type slashers like urban legend.
20:04
I know what you did last summer. Cry wolf.
20:07
Cry Wolf, Valentine. You know, all of those.
20:11
It's a lot of fun. Like, it's a nice little
20:13
subgenre. Reignited interest in the whole
20:17
genre, and so Azure's are the fucking best.
20:18
So if there's anything out there that saves my favorite horror
20:22
subgenre, then fuck yeah. Whatever it takes to
20:25
reinvigorate it. Yeah, I don't care.
20:27
It doesn't just fucking do it. And it screamed at it.
20:30
So, yeah, yeah. OK.
20:32
So. So that's our list.
20:34
That's our list. And thank you to everybody who's
20:37
ever been involved with Scream in some way, shape, or form.
20:41
It's truly a privilege to live in a timeline where this
20:45
franchise exists. I am super excited to see where
20:48
it goes next with 7th, but yes, I'm very excited that
20:51
Christopher Landon is taking over.
20:55
Hold on, we're gonna be talking about our hopes and dreams for
20:59
the franchise at the end, but we need to figure out where these
21:02
rank with our rankings from this.
21:04
Like our coverage? Ohh, yes we do.
21:07
OK, I forgot about that piece of.
21:09
It Let's pause it real quick, and we're gonna.
21:10
Get that compared here and we're gonna see how we stack up.
21:13
We're gonna math it real quick. OK, OK, OK.
21:16
And we're back. So we were both actually pretty
21:21
much on the nose. Oh, really?
21:23
With our rankings? Awesome.
21:24
OK cool. The only thing is my screen 6
21:27
should actually be in 3rd. I gave it the same rank.
21:31
I gave it the same score as I did screen 4.
21:34
Oh, OK, so they're tied. Yeah.
21:36
OK so I had a 7 for screen, 58.5 for scream, 39 for scream, 29.75
21:47
for both scream four and scream, 6 and 10 for scream.
21:52
OK, all right. Read yours out loud for me.
21:56
I want to see how that compares. I don't remember what yours was.
21:59
So my least favorite was 5. OK, that is correct.
22:03
You had a 7 for that. OK, which we had the same score
22:06
for that? Next up was three, also correct.
22:10
You had a 7.75. OK, a little bit harsh.
22:13
What? Was your name 8.5?
22:15
Hey man, it's how I feel. Next up, four.
22:21
Yes. Well, yeah, you're four and two
22:24
are the same score. 98. I'll give two and four.
22:29
Eight. Yeah.
22:30
What the? You were really harsh, man.
22:32
Well, you know, I think it's kind of nice to, you know, I
22:35
don't want to just gift out nines and 10s all over the
22:38
place. Okay they are and I feel like
22:41
they should be nines, so okay. So add four and two.
22:45
So those are tied 69.5. Okay.
22:49
Yep. And then 10 for A1, obviously.
22:51
Yeah, Fuck yeah, I got it. I nailed it.
22:54
Yeah. We, our gut reactions are
22:56
actually pretty close to realities.
22:58
I mean it's been an easy series for me to rank always I think.
23:02
I think it's been like. You know, it's kind of like
23:05
Final Destination. Like, I can pick there is a
23:07
solid series top to the bottom, but like, I can definitely tell
23:11
you which ones are my favorites. I feel like I would have a bunch
23:14
of ties. Like I could definitely, I could
23:17
tear them, you know? But I I like doing a sequential
23:22
list. Like this was really hard for
23:24
me. OK, well, I'm really proud of
23:26
myself. I don't know if I'll ever be
23:28
able to do that again, be able to match it up perfectly with my
23:31
rankings, because. Usually it's like all over the
23:33
place. I remember my Halloween one was
23:35
like, really shocking to me. Cool.
23:40
All right, so that's it for our rankings.
23:42
Now we can talk about our hopes and dreams for the future, which
23:46
is confirmed. We have a 7 on the way.
23:49
I just. I hope that we I would like to
23:57
see more of the Core 4. OK.
23:58
So continue with the cast, Yes. OK.
24:01
I think that it's important to keep the cast.
24:04
That's part of what works well for this franchise is having
24:09
continuing characters that you relate to.
24:11
It's funny because in other franchises it's like the killer
24:15
stays the same and all of the supporting characters change.
24:20
But it's kind of been the inverse with Scream, and I think
24:22
that's part of what makes it special.
24:24
And I'd like to, you know, we've gotten to know these characters
24:26
and really like them, and I'd like to keep them around.
24:29
I don't need anymore of the Sam Dad storyline though.
24:34
Yeah, totally drop that. Yeah, I feel like they wrap that
24:37
up nicely in six. Yeah, she was over it.
24:40
Yeah. For me, I mean, we got a new
24:44
director, new writers, obviously sends us, you know, Radio
24:46
Silence wrote and directed. So I actually would like
24:53
Christopher Landon to make it his own and maybe do his own
24:57
thing with it. If he wants to do a new cast of
25:00
characters, I'm totally on board with that, I think.
25:04
Oh, sorry. I think it would be cool to use
25:07
Kirby's character as a way to explore other situations, like
25:12
she can go and be in any city. It could continue to be
25:17
Woodsboro. It could be just anywhere
25:19
throughout the United States. Possibilities are in the list.
25:24
I don't necessarily feel like we have to stick with the core
25:27
four. I feel like their story is kind
25:30
of done. I don't really see where else it
25:32
could go. I feel like Sam got her closure.
25:36
I feel like Tara is. I don't really.
25:40
She didn't really have anything. Like it's basically been Sam.
25:43
She's been the one that is being tied to all this, other than
25:47
like other people being inspired by the Stab movies, which have
25:50
been the past two. And then also it was kind of
25:55
like a redo of scream two, unless they do another scream
25:59
three and they have a secret brother or like, I mean, I would
26:03
love to see a true crime direction with it because true
26:06
crime is so popular, you know? Well, then I would feel like
26:09
that would be fitting with Kirby's, so that would be
26:11
fitting with Kirby. It could also be fitting with
26:13
like, you know, kind of another homage to the original trilogy
26:16
with Scream Three perhaps. You know, there's a docu series
26:19
going on and if we think about the Ted Bundy docu series that
26:23
just happened where there was a lot of issues from some of the
26:29
like real life families of victims, you know?
26:33
Talking about Jeffrey Dahmer. Jeffrey Dahmer, whatever.
26:37
Another white murderer who gets vitalized, like, whatever.
26:41
Like I just I I think that would be an interesting take on it.
26:45
If that's still, you know, socially relevant by the time
26:48
this comes out. I also, I just really like
26:50
Christopher Landon's POV on things.
26:54
He's got a sense of humor and an appreciation for horror, and
26:57
he's got a unique mind and I'd like to see, I'd like to see
27:02
what he can do with this. The only serious horror movie
27:06
I've seen him do. His Paranormal Activity and his
27:11
other two slashers, Happy Death Days, both of them and Freaky.
27:15
Freaky. I feel like lean more heavily on
27:17
the comedy side, which, I don't know.
27:20
Is he gonna do that with Scream? I don't know.
27:22
If he made it more of a comedy. I don't think I would like that.
27:25
I mean, you just defended the campiness of Scream 3.
27:28
But that doesn't make it a comedy.
27:29
It's just camping. Like camping and comedy are two
27:31
separate things like. I just like if he makes it can't
27:36
be. That's cool.
27:37
I'm all on board with that. But like, you know, I have
27:39
faith. I have faith too.
27:42
I'm really excited to see what happens.
27:44
I it sucks for radio silence. I have a feeling they wanted to
27:47
do a full trilogy. I think they're already signed
27:50
on for like another project or something.
27:52
I think that's what the issue is.
27:54
Yeah, there, But I was reading about that they were working on
27:59
a movie, but they've already finished filming it.
28:01
So, like, the schedule conflict really shouldn't have been that
28:04
much of an issue. I don't.
28:06
Maybe there's other things behind the scenes that happen.
28:08
Maybe we'll know more down the line.
28:10
But, you know, whatever. Let's just pass it off to
28:13
somebody else. Let's see what happens, you
28:14
know? Yeah, I'm excited.
28:17
Okay. I think that's it.
28:19
All right. I think we're ready to pass the
28:21
torch to Saw, yes. And actually that'll be coming
28:26
out later this week on Thursday. So be ready for that.
28:31
We're very excited to talk about it for the next 10 months.
28:34
Yeah, Saw is one of our favorite franchises.
28:37
Yeah, we're going to have, you know, similar.
28:40
We've had a lot to say about all of our ongoing franchise
28:43
coverage, but I think this one is going to be extra special for
28:48
us, I think. This one's going to be more
28:51
wild. It's going to be more of a
28:52
roller coaster because this series goes off the fucking
28:54
rails, yeah? It's wild, man.
28:57
It's a soap opera with blood. We start off with super Serious
29:01
movie #1 and then we get it all the way up to Piranha.
29:05
Ohh. You would be surprised like you
29:07
get my notes for the first one that it's a super serious movie.
29:12
Yeah, the way I took notes on it, I.
29:14
Mean. There are funny things about it,
29:15
but I feel like it's the movie that plays it the most straight
29:18
out of this. Ohh, definitely.
29:19
Definitely. Yeah, that and two two is pretty
29:22
straight too. Yeah, yeah, definitely.
29:25
All right, cool. So we're actually gonna be
29:26
talking about that ourselves here after we stop recording
29:29
this. So yeah.
29:30
And we'll have that episode later this week.
29:32
Yeah. So look forward to it.
29:34
Yeah. Be on the lookout.
29:35
Get excited. Yeah, cuz we are all right.
29:39
All right. We'll see you guys in the
29:42
future. Ooh, that's right.
29:46
All right. Bye.
29:47
Bye.
