all ive ever seen past few months (since the pandemic really) are film sites (some of them really big ones) posting about Scream 5 on FB/Twit - 'OMG there are actually doing Scream 5!'.. 'OMG Neve Campbell is returning to Scream this is so crazy!!'

its like everyone's forgotten there was a Scream 'legacy sequel' with all the original cast not that long ago and it bombed and made zero impact..(and that even had Craven directing).. hell there was even a failed TV series after that I think

there couldnt be a less anticipated movie than Scream 5... be like if social media went fake nuts over another Terminator.. - 'OMG they doing T7! and OMG Linda Hamiltons returning! and Arnie is back! this is insane!'

i could understand it if there had been no Scream 4 in 2011 so this would be the first belated sequel since Scream 3 in 2000... or if Scream 5 had been announced as a crossover with Nightmare on Elm St - Freddy vs Scream! ..but just another Scream? its like so what? why is anyone even bothering to try make this a thing on SM? its really strange.

Scream 4 was actually awesome and a huge improvement over the horribly mediocre 3rd installment.

Agreed. Scream 4 doesn’t nearly get enough credit. I rate the series 1, 4, 2, 3.

I get what you mean. It's a pretty meh franchise to begin with. The first one was solid. The rest I didn't take to.

This one I just don't give a damn about and don't see what people are hyped about. It's the same ole, same ole. Tired formula like the Terminator movies.
