Who, from the friend group, is Ghostface and WHY. The final act literally has to do with the motive. Almost perfect. Switch 5 with 3 and it's the perfect ranking. Scream 5 truly aged like milk, it has no replay value, actually upon watching again, I keep realizing how bad it was. That final act was truly awful. At least 3 is fun and it actually does have great reply value. For me, it Scream > Scream 2 > Scream 4 = Scream 3 >>>> Scream 5 As far as Ghostface Billy = Stu = Mrs Loomis > Jill > Romen > Mickey > Charlie > Richie > Doofy > Ray > Bobby >>>>>. >> Amber You are on straight crack if you think Scream 3 isn’t the absolute worst of the series. So bad that it killed it for a decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's literally what 4 did, not 3 3 was actually meant to end the franchise unlike 4 that was meant to create a new trilogy but flopped so bad it was swiftly cancelled and Scream got relegated to a trash MTV show. 4 couldn't even suprass 40million in the US The biggest flop and worst movie by far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But 3. Was absolute bottom of the barrel. The jumping the shark was terrible. To try and spin 5 as worse is hilarious. You only need to watch the house scene where they run in and out to realize how dumb it is. 5 may have flaws like the hallucinations but it at the very least had balls of steel too with the best opening sequence since 2.

Girl I would never spin 5 as worse. 5 is part of the holy trinity with 1 & 2. The Loomis Trilogy remains untouched and the peak of the franchise >>>> But 3 is definitely better than 4, which had a flop cast, a flop ghostface, flop opening, and most importantly flop clearance rack wardrobe for Sidney. 3 at least had Mother Posey and Sidney serving her most c*nt ever.

smoore95GAGA Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 Ig I’m one of the few who actually prefers 5 over 4. The only redeeming quality of 4 for me is Emma Roberts. I don’t care for any of the other new characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOnlyOne Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 Also anyone ranking thee Amber "ACAB" Freeman as the worst Ghostface will never see heaven and I hope someone brings a baby to your theater when you go see 6 in two weeks. Mother Amber killed 2 possibly 3 cops and is the only person to kill a legacy cast member along with fellow Top 2 Queen Mrs. Loomis. No one has done it like them. Jill and 4 stans really have the worst taste on earth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATRL Moderator Ampersand13 Posted February 26, 2023 ATRL Moderator Share Posted February 26, 2023 I have to say, I do really like Ghostface's dialogue and delivery in Scream 4, sounds particularly menacing Roger always delivers but he was on something special with 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOnlyOne Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 Scream 4 Sidney: Don’t **** with the original One movie later: gets replaced as the lead, is relegated to 10 minutes of screen time, the movie becomes more successful and then she’s booted from the franchise entirely with the one film she’s not in tracking to have Scream’s biggest opening weekend That line aged like milk I fear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn’t even speak when Scream and Scream 2 came out so there are no nostalgia glasses. I just have eyes. Scream 2 may not have reinvented the wheel but it built upon what the original (and better) one did. Scream 3 tried to be edgy and outright completely failed. Hence why its critical and fandom score is dog ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s terrible. And yes, a horro movie making fun of horror tropes and then falling into those horror tropes (UNKNOWINGLY like Scream 3 did) is jumping the shark.

Her acting was very dry but I feel like the killer reveal was a little better. Compare that to Amber in 5 who was just so cringe to watch because she was trying way too hard to do her best Stu impression Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
