The only remaining main character is Courtney Cox, success will definitely be affected by Neve Campbell’s absence I don't really think that's true. Hardcore fans will watch anyway and some of the younger generation doesn't even know the original. I work in a cinema and most of my co-workers are between 18 and 24 and a lot of them thought Scream and Scary Movie are the same movie and most of them only watched the latter. And they also watched the new one without watching the original first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they also watched the new one without watching the original first. Then why did they pretty much center the whole Scream 5 marketing around Neve? Sidney's story is the reason why people are/were invested so much, now hopefully for the sake of the franchise's future (or of the new actors, because **** the studio) audiences became curious/want to follow the new characters too (but after the hype died down, I think a LOT of the excitement about Scream 5 was about getting to see the legacy characters and the continuation of the original story by a hot new directing team) then again Courteney/Gale is still in the movie too so we'll see...

Bhabylon Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Yeah I’ve also noticed people have been looking back at Scream 5 less fondly in the last few months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kishi Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Eh. I'm not worried about the 6th movie nor the people not feeling Scream 5. It was a success and regardless of the unfortunate Neve situation, people will still show up for this one. Ideally, I'd love for her to be in it, because Sidney IS Scream. But a break is fine and I'm hoping the story is well written. We do need other narratives than Sidney having psychotic family members or scorned relatives of past killers.

ATRL Moderator Ampersand13 Posted November 22, 2022 ATRL Moderator Share Posted November 22, 2022 I mean the cinema score for 5cream was great for a slasher, and Sydney wasn't even utilized that heavily which means that even people who may have only seen it for her still enjoyed the movie. I think if this film is stronger than (or at the very least, as good as) its predecessor, they could succeed by word of mouth. I may be a little too optimistic, but I genuinely believe the latest film garnered a lot of good will within the horror/slasher fandom and die hard Scream fans. It may not have been everyone's favorite entry, but the audience scores point to it being well liked. The fact that 5cream performed as well as it did despite the fourth installment (wrongfully) underperforming, the creator of the franchise passing, opening in a typically weak box-office slot, and the genre being almost completely wiped from the mainstream (bar Halloween which crashed and burned) is a quiet miracle. I don't know if Scream 6 (!!) can pull it off, but I have faith, and I can see a scenario in which this film solidifies the franchise the way the second installment did originally. Regardless, these are some of my favorite movies so I know I'll enjoy whatever comes our way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
