What is up bros, I'm Caleb and I'm Jonathan and we are a couple of bros on a mission to
give you the most detailed movie reviews out there with as little bias as possible.
Welcome to the all bros.
This week on the podcast in 4k spotlight we only have one new release this week.
There's actually a couple but only one that we're going to talk about.
And then nothing for through the wall and so after that we'll be getting straight into
headliner where we will be breaking down scream 6.
So without further ado let's say we get right on into this.
Every day we're surrounded by media, books, movies, art, music, games, apps, podcasts,
etc etc.
With this constant bombardment it's easy to miss great media gems in the chaos.
But fret not, you've come to the right place my friend.
I'm Jason and I love media.
I invite you to check out the Mixed Media Forest podcast.
The podcast where I trudge through the forests of media to find hidden gems for you, the
listener.
Every episode of Mixed Media Forest is chock full of fun, reviews, nostalgia, positivity,
news, rants, stories, and recommendations about all things media.
Again that's the Mixed Media Forest podcast created on Anchor podcasting app and available
everywhere find podcasts can be found.
Give it a listen.
That's what all the cool kids are doing.
Alright first up in 4k spotlight, Rose would you like to tell everyone what's getting released
this week?
I would love to so this week Megan is coming out.
I never got to do that joke when we reviewed this so I feel like I gotta throw on that
joke where we don't talk about this movie again.
I would be genuinely surprised if anyone caught that joke.
Well then, y'all are what's the word?
Fuh there's a frickin word and I can't think of it right now.
Son of a bitch.
Uncultured.
I think whatever word you're looking for.
Uncultured.
That's the word I'm looking for.
That's the word you were looking for?
Yeah uncultured.
That's the word I'm looking for.
If y'all do not know that line from Drake and Josh when Josh is just like Megan, what
is wrong with you?
You didn't grow up in the late 90s, early 2000s.
I know not all of our listeners did but I'm just saying if you did and you don't recognize
that we're not friends.
Yeah according to our statistics most of the people that listen to us are either above
that time period or significantly below.
Well son of a bitch.
Significantly below.
Why are they listening to our podcast?
We have foul mouths.
Yeah it beats me.
Alright.
Anyway, actually kidding the 4k spotlight.
So Megan comes out this week and unfortunately it's not getting a 4k release it's just getting
a blu ray release but it is the unrated edition which I guess means that it got a bunch of
deleted scenes and maybe it's a lot more gruesome than the theater version that we got because
there were definitely some scenes and I swear that me and Caleb talked about the review
that you could definitely tell that they were holding back because they wanted to go for
that piece.
Oh absolutely.
Like I've actually given some real thought to watching the unrated version on Peacock.
Oh they have the unrated version on Peacock?
I didn't know that.
Yeah.
So I wanted to go through and see what we might have missed.
I might not watch the whole thing but I might just skip through just to see what was added.
Dude the movie that I really want to see when it comes to Peacock is totally out of left
field.
I mean it's not like it's not a big game bear.
I cannot wait to check that one out.
Oh my gosh that's maybe.
But it looks so much fun.
You're not wrong.
Yeah.
But yeah anyway so Megan comes out tomorrow so if you guys want to pick it up be sure
to head out to your local Best Buy Target Walmart support physical media guys.
Support physical media.
Alright well unless you have anything else to say about that.
No I got nothing.
Yeah then I say we move on to this week's headliner.
Hell yeah.
Alrighty like we said for this week's headliner we will be breaking down the newest installment
of the Scream franchise Scream 6.
But first we did post a question of the week and we did get some answers.
And only one of them was an actual.
So one was a joke answer.
One was a legitimate answer and then the other two were suggestions for us to do our recommendations
on.
That's funny.
Yeah.
So first up we have.
Alright let's just do the two like recommendation ones first.
So first we got the underscore thunder underscore god 2010 who says pitch black please.
I got to stop ask and be patient.
So he's wanting us to recommend pitch black.
Which is a Vin Diesel movie.
Do you want to watch that one because I don't want to watch it.
I guess I'll watch it then.
Sorry man.
No I'll watch it too.
I'll make you suffer.
I won't let you just suffer.
That's me and I'm sorry.
You don't even know if it's good or bad.
Yeah I have a love hate relationship with.
Okay.
That's fair.
Sometimes it can be really good but.
Really good is a strong term.
Sometimes it can be I.
It can be I.
And then sometimes it can just be really bad.
And especially in the Fast and Furious franchise.
How the fuzz that shit's still going.
Dude who the hell knows.
Like yeah that trait.
Oh my god.
Dude they're freaking they're seriously one trip to hell away from turning into the Friday
the 13th.
Dude straight up.
Like they already went to space.
Supposedly.
Like I didn't see the last one.
Dude don't give them ideas because the 11 is going to have Jason.
Holy shit.
That'd be hilarious.
Actually no they can't.
Because Universal does Fast and Furious.
Dude if they just go balls to the wall just like outrageous.
Like I'm sold.
Hey they got the rights to Michael and Shucky.
Let's make something happen with those two.
Do it.
Well wait no I'm sorry.
No they don't have the rights to Michael anymore.
They already lost those.
I think they can make something work though.
Let's see the next response that we got is from Lucas underscore plays 13 who said can
you do Rio 2?
To answer your question yes we can do Rio 2.
But I need to watch that movie.
That movie once.
That would be years.
So I will rewatch that and I will definitely I'm assuming I'm going to review that one
since I did the first one.
Yes.
And I do not want to watch Rio 2.
Damn.
So I will be definitely rewatching that as soon as possible and we will definitely get
that root to you my good sir.
Alright next up we got our joke answer who that comes from Tim A underscore five four three two one who said Garfield.
Oh did I even say what our question was.
No you didn't.
Freaking stupid.
Okay.
Um so on tick tock and Instagram we posted a question of the week and the question that
we asked is in relation to the scream franchise and we just asked what is your favorite scary
movie.
So like I said we got those two suggestions.
The next response like I said is coming from this Tim May five four three two one and they
said Garfield to a tale of two kitties.
You know he right.
That's the scariest shit I've ever seen.
This is a real scary ass movie.
So yeah and then we got another response from an Anthony who said the whole scream series
is my fave.
It's a good choice.
I freaking love the scream series.
I will say the scream franchise is one of the rare franchises that none of them in my
opinion like I have some ones that I prefer over the others but none of them are like atrocious
that I can't even I still enjoy.
I can definitely give you that.
Like that that is a I'll definitely agree with you on that.
Like I can't think of a single scream like at least off the top of my head that's just
horrible.
The closest one I would say is maybe three.
Yeah I'm the same way.
I feel that's how everybody is.
Three is always at the bottom.
Yeah but all the other ones were freaking awesome.
So yeah definitely agree with you there Anthony.
So thank you to everyone that answered our question of the week.
We appreciate it.
And getting into this week's breakdown if you are new to our breakdown system we have
split movies into eight different categories that we individually score to come to a final
Albrose letter grade.
The eight categories that we score are story, writing, acting, character development but
with this being a horror movie we do change character development to logic and that's
just usually just changing seeing if the movie followed its own logic and if everything made
sense and then we got effects, music, costumes and then we give it our own personal score
at the very end.
All of those numbers get magically added up through our algorithm and spit out a letter
grade for us to compare this movie to a similar score.
It also gives us a percentage which is not as important but it is kind of fun just to
see what the ranking is within those grade blocks.
So if you have not seen Scream 6 this is definitely a movie that can be spoiled so if you're not
if you're going to if you plan on seeing Scream 6 at all we highly suggest you stop listening
now and just come back later.
Because I think we can all agree it sucks when the ghost face killer or killers is exposed
or not exposed.
I'll say yes to that but typically like I think I enjoy Scream enough where knowing
the killer would just kind of help me like see what kind of things I caught or missed.
See I prefer to know like I don't like knowing about the killer until the second viewing
like that way you know yeah you can like go through and be like okay you can definitely
know that's that that's who and that and that ghost face killer that's them and that scene
I just prefer to do it on my second run through.
That's fair that yeah that's totally fair.
So yeah so again if you have not seen Scream 6 please go check it out then come back otherwise
if you listen beyond this point things are going to get spoiled for you.
So now is our favorite segment reading with Rose.
With two E's.
One year after the Woodsboro killings orchestrated by Richie Kirsch and Amber Freeman Blackmore
University professor Laura Crane is catfished by her student Jason Carvey who lures her
outside a bar in New York City and kills her while wearing a ghost face costume.
Jason plots with his roommate Greg to kill sisters Sam and Tara Carpenter to finish what
Richie and Amber started but Jason receives a call from a different ghost face who has
murdered Greg and subsequently stabs Jason to death.
Can we talk about the freaking opening really quick like this is such a good opening for
a Scream movie and I have freaking dude I totally agree I absolutely agree with you
like this blew my mind.
Dude right and the fact that like before the title sequence comes up ghost faces just straight
up like who gives a fuck about the movies and freaking kills the guy.
I'm just like this is fucking okay I already love this ghost face.
Dude it was the shit like I'll be real I totally thought that they were going to go the whole
route of it opening up as a stab movie.
Yeah yeah.
I was yeah very glad that they did and I thought that was trippy as shit.
Yeah right.
What they did like they did such a good job with that opening like every time I thought
that the title was about to come down like it didn't until like like what you said where
he's just like who gives a shit and so like oh so such a good opening such a good opening.
So Sam and Tara now live in New York City and attend Blackmore with fellow survivors
Chad and Mindy Meeks Martin along with their roommate Quinn Mindy's grand Annika and Chad's
roommate.
Sam attends therapy with Dr. Stone and is ostracized in public due to an online conspiracy
theory that she was the true mastermind of the 2022.
Quinn's father Detective Wayne Bailey calls Salmon for questioning as her ID was found
at the scene of Jason's murder along with the Ghostface mask that was used in the previous
year's killings.
On the way to the station Sam is called by Ghostface from Richie's phone who then attacks
Tara and pursues them into a bodega killing multiple bystanders in Ghostface masks used
in the
At the station the sisters meet with FBI Special Agent Kirby Reed a survivor of the 2011 killings.
They also encounter reporter Gail Weathers who reveals that Sidney Prescott and her family
have gone into hiding in response to recent attacks.
Dr. Stone is murdered by Ghostface who steals Sam's file and leaves the mask used in the
case.
Ghostface then attacks the group in Sam and Tara's apartment killing Quinn and Annika
and Lidnzer College killings.
Wayne is officially taken off the case following Quinn's death but vows to help the group
and avenge his daughter.
Gail takes the group to an abandoned cinema she found while investigating which has been
set up as a shrine to the Ghostface killers including weapons and outfits from each set
of attacks.
Ghostface later calls Gail at her apartment and torments her about the death of Dewey
Riley before killing her boyfriend and attacking her.
Sam and Tara arrive just in time to stop Ghostface from killing Gail.
The group agree to meet Kirby at the theater to trap Ghostface.
On the subway platform they are separated and Mindy is stabbed by Ghostface.
At the theater Sam sees a vision of her father original Ghostface killer Billy Loomis who
reminds her to defend herself and not trust anyone.
Taking Billy's knife from the original murder Sam realizes they have been locked inside.
Wayne calls Sam and says he found out Kirby was fired from the FBI months prior for being
mentally unstable.
Two Ghostfaces appear and attack Chad as Tara and Sam try to escape.
Kirby and Wayne arrive with guns drawn.
Wayne shoots Kirby revealing himself as a third Ghostface.
He admits to orchestrating the killings with his children revealed to be Ethan and a still
alive Quinn to avenge the death of his eldest son Richie.
They reveal their plan to kill Sam and frame her as Ghostface making her the final piece
of the shrine to honor Richie.
Sam and Tara fight off the Bailey family with Tara stabbing Ethan and Sam killing Quinn.
Sam then dons her father's Ghostface costume and stabs Wayne to death.
Ethan resurfaces but Kirby smashes the television set that killed Stu Mocker over his head.
Sam agrees to let Tara live her life more independently and Tara agrees to go therapy.
As the still alive Mindy, Chad, and Kirby are taken to the hospital Sam stares at her
father's Ghostface mask before discarding it and Tara into the city.
When we get to the character development the logic I got some shit to say because there
is one character's death in this movie that makes no freaking sense how they survived.
Dude, I have multiple of those issues.
Alright, awesome.
I look forward to when we get to that.
Oh man.
But starting with the plot.
Yeah.
I feel that um, god what are the directors of these movies?
Because I know that same directors came back for this one that weren't.
Uh, Matt, I'm gonna butcher his ass, his name, Matt Betanelli Open?
Yeah that's what it looks like.
Okay, and Tyler Gillette.
I really appreciate that they paid attention to the first four movies that followed and
just the fan service that they are giving us.
Just the attention to detail.
I freaking love these guys and I really do hope that they come back for Scream 7.
As a continuation from Scream 5, I feel that the whole New York setting was a really good
idea.
I have nothing against Woodsboro.
Woodsboro is like Haddonfield to me.
Up until this movie it didn't really feel like a Scream movie if it didn't take place
in Woodsboro.
A Halloween movie just feels weird if it's not in Haddonfield.
But they made it really work in this movie and I'm actually really shocked.
I don't know.
I really didn't miss Woodsboro at all and I feel that's a testament to how these two
breathe new life into this franchise and I really appreciate that.
Dude, I will say this, I feel like the Scream movies have put a really big emphasis on what's
it called, Woodsboro?
Yeah, Woodsboro.
And I feel like they were trying to go a little too hard with Woodsboro like the Halloween
franchise did with Haddonfield.
Like Haddonfield makes sense because it's Michael Myers' home.
Yeah.
With Woodsboro, I don't feel like Scream, with how universally loved supposedly the stab
movies are, I don't feel like they needed to freaking beat down that everything took
place in Woodsboro.
I think probably just because the first murders took place in Woodsboro so they're just like,
you know, making the stab movies, they're just like, oh, well, why would we ever want
to leave Woodsboro?
This is where the whole event happened.
This is where the whole story was born.
This is the home of Ghostface.
I mean, you're not wrong.
Speaking of, so me and Christina are starting to watch from the beginning.
By the time we're watching one a week by the time that we finish five, at least Scream
6 will hopefully be close to coming to Paramount Plus.
But I didn't notice this in the first, it's been that long since I...
I thought the Ghostface costume was something that Randy, not Randy, I'm sorry, Stu and
Billy just came up on their own.
I thought they just saw a random mask at a department store, decided to do the Grieper-esque
outfit.
They just came up with it on themselves.
So, one of the ladies shows the actual costume, they're just like, oh yeah, this is the costume
that the killers are wearing.
It's called Father Death.
I'm just like, for some reason, I thought they came up with it on the thing that they
just got it from a department store or a costume store or whatever.
I mean, it makes sense.
Oh no, it does.
But I just thought, you know, those two had more creativity.
True.
But yeah, I think story-wise, everything that they did, it made sense for the characters.
Oh, sorry.
No, I was just going to say, I think the whole deal between Sam and Terra, or Sam being like
super overprotective of Terra, completely made sense.
Oh yeah.
These sisters are the best part of this new series.
Easily.
Frickin' easily.
Like, so frickin' good.
I will say though, I think that they, I feel like the ghost faces needed something a little
bit better.
Okay.
I want to lead into that with my problem with this movie, or like what I feel it's missing.
Maybe it's just me, but when it came to when Wes Craven, unfortunately passed away, may
he rest in peace, when he directed these movies, Screams 1 through 4, it felt like there was
more of an impact when Ghostface was revealed.
It felt like the killers were more set up, it was more impactful when they were unmasked.
And don't get me wrong, it's still impactful.
I don't get the shock and awe value anymore from when a Ghostface killer is revealed,
in 5 and in 6.
And I don't know, maybe it's just because Wes Craven was the master of suspense, of
terror with A Nightmare on Elm Street and Screams 1 through 4.
I feel that these new movies are kind of missing that.
The Ghostface reveals aren't as big or shocking as Wes Craven was so good at writing them.
Is that just me?
No, you're absolutely right.
It's because they frickin' spoil it.
Yeah, that's true.
Like they give you enough of a hint where you're suspicious of the right people.
But there's so many things about these movies that I am constantly forgetting.
I think the one thing that I always seem to forget about Scream movies is alibis don't
mean dick all.
Yeah, that's true.
That is something I always forget.
I always am like, oh yeah, well he was busy doing this.
And so I start thinking about it and I'm like, no, there's always two, Caleb.
There's always more than one except for three, which we saw how that went.
So anytime I heard an alibi I was suspicious of it for some reason.
I was just like, he has an alibi, whatever.
I think the whole meta discussion is a little overdone.
Yeah, I can definitely agree with you on that.
Did you, I'm trying to break down the three killers that are revealed to be Ghostface.
The sister, I kind of liked that one because I felt that we see her dead body and then
it turns out what Officer Bailey went through to, he was the first to respond so he was
able to sneak her out and just put in another body from another crime scene.
That was a cool reveal.
I appreciated that because I did not see that one coming.
But the freaking brother, yeah, I saw that coming from a mile away.
You're just like...
Dude, absolutely freaking lutely.
I will say I did not care for how they shot that.
I didn't care for them because he was like full on Ghostface gear.
I'm like, that's kind of bullshit.
He was on the train and then it's just like, oh no.
What they should have done is just have that be the reveal right there.
That would have actually been really cool.
I would have dug that reveal.
I don't understand why it always, why does the reveal always have to be when all of the
Ghostfaces are together.
It's fine if it's separate.
If anything, it adds to the story.
Yeah, absolutely.
Shit.
I think the story is just, it's a kind of a basic story overall.
There wasn't anything too crazy.
It was just typical scream.
It was a typical scream story.
So it's like nothing too special was there but it was still alright.
Oh yeah, I think they did a really good job like you said, making it like a classic scream
story but still adding freshness to it, which I definitely appreciate.
Yeah.
I don't know, I'm not super high with this one.
I'll say it's above average but I think I'm sitting at like maybe an 80.
You know, I can match you there.
Moving on over to writing.
Okay, I am very, so I got to point this out because I actually, I would say this is the
writing and how they set up the atmosphere of this whole thing.
When they explained the whole, because the shrine was really super cool.
It was very well established.
But then I love the officer, what's his name, Officer Bailey, how he points out, you know,
if you pay a cop enough, evidence can go missing, no one really bats an eye.
And that's just how he was able to get, because the shrine belonged to Randy and so he wants
to help his son finish it.
And so when he adds that, I'm just like, okay, literally that's all you need to tell me as
to how all of this evidence from the Ghostface killings is here.
Makes complete sense.
It's all you need to say.
They did that part incredibly well.
Because it's true, like honestly, if we think back, like I'm gonna, you know, let's bring
in like John Wayne Gacy.
We found this out at a Grayface Museum that literally his attorney, Sam Amorant, would
sell stuff from the evidence locker of Gacy under the table to people.
So like he was selling his like pogo and patches, uniforms, his wallet, his leather jacket,
like stuff that was supposed to be in evidence because I don't think Gacy had been convicted
yet or sentenced yet.
So it was still there.
But yeah, so like it's very clear.
It does happen.
It's effed up that it happens, but it definitely does happen.
Yeah, that kind of added a really cool sense of realism there, like just a real world issue.
Yeah.
Yeah, I thought they did that really well.
I think my main issue dialogue wise, it was a lot of the filler dialogue was really not
good.
That's fair.
If I had to say like my favorite lines of dialogue, it would definitely have...
Oh shit.
Fuck.
Mindy, when she's like literally explaining like, oh, you know, this is what happened
in Scream Fights because that was like the introduction back into the franchise, but
this is the sequel.
It's got to be bigger.
We got to bring in more legacy characters.
All of this shit.
I honestly was like smiling when she was saying this because she is absolutely right.
This is exactly how it has to be.
Mindy's writing in this movie, I freaking love so much.
It's Mindy.
Yeah, Mindy.
Because there's...
I think it's when the freaking...
The brother comes up and helps her some shit after the subway and she's just like, oh,
fuck, I got the killer wrong again.
I hate this franchise or some shit like that.
Like that is funny as hell.
I loved her writing so much in this movie.
It was pretty good.
I think this is the issue I have with all of the Scream movies.
The character, like basically the Mindy character, the one who basically points out exactly how
the movie's going to go, I find them really annoying.
See, in some Scream movies, I find them annoying.
Her, I do not for some reason.
I don't know what it is.
I mean, that's fair.
I can definitely see why you would like her.
It's just she didn't quite do it for me.
No, dude, I get it.
I completely get it.
I'm trying to think of some other shit.
I think the relationship between Tara and Chad was just utterly ridiculous.
Yeah, that kind of came out of nowhere.
I've never suspected any sexual tension or any like, oh, I have feeling five between
them.
I mean, I know like her has passed in between this, but it just comes so out of left field.
Yeah, I'm like, OK, so this is happening.
I mean, I don't I'm not against it, but it just feels this is so out of left field.
Yeah, it felt very forced, unfortunately.
A lot of things felt forced.
I feel Gail was freaking forced in here, too.
She was.
They definitely wanted to make sure that they kept at least one legacy.
Well, actually, wait.
No, because Kirby's in this and I still I would consider her legacy character because
she's from Scream 4.
But like, no, I completely agree with you.
Like, I will say I appreciate that even though it was like very like subtle and fast, they
explain why Sydney isn't there and it makes complete sense.
You know, like they're not like bashing on Neve Campbell or anything.
And like, I don't see why they would.
It's not like the like the writers and directors have a great relationship with her.
She had a blast working with them five.
It's just the studio.
And so like the way that they're there, they were just like, oh, hey, you know, like Sydney
is, you know, she's safe.
She does the way that they set that up.
I feel I think it was Cory reviews.
Yeah, I think it was Cory reviews on.
He just pointed out, you know, it's it sets it up that if she ever if she does want to
come back to the franchise.
Yeah, I.
I think that line it def like don't get me wrong.
That line needed to happen.
Like we needed to figure like know why Sydney wasn't there.
I feel like they just kind of shooed shoehorned it in really unnaturally.
OK, that's fair.
Like do you think that's just how the line was written or do you think that's how Courtney
Cox?
A little bit of both.
OK.
I mean, hate me all you want.
I don't think Courtney Cox is a good actress.
All right, I'm out.
Don't you?
Why are you bashing on Courtney?
Wow, I can't believe.
I know I don't feel great about it, but it's true.
Her delivery of that line was very like robotic and felt very like, oh, yeah, like right after
I think it needed to happen before someone threw a punch.
Do can we talk about that?
That was that whole the scene before or like couple scenes before when Sam goes to swing.
She's like, sorry, honey, it's not my first rodeo.
And then frickin Tara comes up with a freaking hey, dude, that was frickin hilarious.
What are the best scenes ever?
Oh, my God, that was bad.
Dude, that was oh, my gosh.
I laughed so hard at that.
Because I think I was taken off guard, like actually it was I remember.
So I was sitting there watching that.
And so Sam goes takes a swing and Gail like dodges out of the way and then says, that's
my not my first rodeo.
And I remember thinking that moment, there's two of them.
And then the bam, like frickin Tara comes in with the the hit.
Like I was laughing so frickin hard.
Did you have a good no, luckily, there was only one other couple in the theater with
me because I got real lucky, but I got real paranoid, too.
Oh, dude.
So and I felt so bad for her.
He was fine for me.
There was a two ladies that sat next to her that would not shut the fuck up during the
movie, chatted throughout the whole thing.
Literally were looking up who on their phones during the movie.
Christina reached over many times to tell him to shh.
And they look over at her and then just go back to it.
And she gave her gave them the dirtiest look when we left.
And I remember when the credits started rolling.
She's like, I swear, I swear to God, I fucking ghost face on their asses.
You got to be careful about saying that shit now.
Yeah, that's true.
But she totally get it.
All jokes.
All jokes until it actually happens.
Yeah.
But, dude, I don't blame her.
It's freaking people doing annoying shit like that.
I'm so overly cautious about my phone use if I'm in the movie, like if I have to.
And that's only if like my phone's like going off, like someone's calling me or whatever.
Like I.
Yeah.
So I used to not, but now that I have a wife and kid, I kind of feel like I need to.
Yeah, that's understandable.
But my go to now is so I'll wear like a flannel when I go to to movies or just like a shirt
over my my shirt.
And so when I had if I have to check my my phone for whatever reason, I'll shove my phone
in like under my my shirt and then just kind of like look through my collar down at my
phone.
So it's like the least distracting it can possibly be.
All right.
I appreciate.
But yeah, I got real lucky with this viewing.
I will say the only thing that like had me a little nervous is I don't like sitting in
front of people in during a horror movie.
I wasn't like they were like in the back row.
And so I was like, OK, I'm not going to like walk all the way to the back because that
just makes me look suspicious.
Like I'll just kind of sit up in the front row in the middle.
And so that's where like my seat was.
But I was so like I must have looked like a creep because I kept like turning around
real quick or trying to catch him in my peripheral just to like that's because I was so nervous.
I'm just like they're like these people could be psychos.
Like seeing a movie on a weekday in the middle of the middle of the day, like these just
scream serial killer.
And then I had to remind myself, I'm like, you're here too.
And you're by yourself.
I think that makes you a little bit more suspicious.
I think as long as no one walks in with a good because if that happens to quote a shorty
shot shorty in a scary movie, run, bitch, run.
Dude, did you hear about the or have you seen on TikTok the friggin videos of people doing
that?
Oh, they should like seriously wore ghost face masks.
They I don't even think it was like they just didn't wear to the movie.
I think they they snuck in in the middle of the movie.
Yeah, like I saw one video of of this guy who so it was kind of like it's kind of set
up like Cinemark and AF a little bit where it was like the multiple rows of the luxury
loungers.
But the front row, it was like a really big wall.
Right.
Okay.
Yeah.
So like it's just kind of like that big wall.
So you can't see anything below that wall.
And there was like a guy that that walked in, but like ducked it under that wall.
And he threw on a ghost face mask and then just stood up and looked at everyone in the
theater with his ghost face mask on.
And people like were losing their shit.
Oh, hell no.
Yeah.
I'm just like, no, someone does that.
Like someone's getting catching some hands.
Yes.
You, sir, can kiss my ass.
Oh, my gosh.
Like my my fight or flight instincts, which is, yeah, oh, my God, my anxiety was shoot
through the roof.
They like it's it's my my typical game plan.
The exact reason why I will never go to a movie theater without and not get a drink
because the the drink is my distraction to be able to get up on whoever like the oncoming
attacker like that is that's my go to.
I'm just I'm going to like see in the would be a salient.
I'm going to take my drink, frickin throw it at them, like splash them.
So I'll splash them first and I'll keep the cup and then I'll throw the cup at them, get
like a frickin double throw off and then I'll just frickin go in and guns blazing.
All right.
I like this plan.
Like throwing hands like they're going out of style.
Oh, my God.
I have an escape plan for literally everything that I do.
I love it.
But yeah, so my my biggest issue with this movie is coming in to the writing.
I think the the extra dialogue, like the filler bullshit, was a little ridiculous.
That's fair.
Yeah, so I didn't really dig it all that much.
I'm trying to decide where I'm where I'm sitting.
What were you sitting with writing?
I would say I'm a little blow story.
I still had a good time with the writing.
I think the right like there there's hits and misses.
But for me, there might be a little more hits than you.
I don't know.
So writing, I think I'm going to be a 78.
That's not bad.
I might be a hair lower than you, though.
I think I'm going to go with 77.
There.
All right.
Moving on over to acting.
So going through the cast real quick.
I don't know why she had in credits order.
I don't know why she was top of the Frick, but Courtney Cox.
Because as Cox, yeah, friggin dumb.
Anyway, Courtney Cox, who played Gail Weathers, we have Melissa Barrera, who plays Sam Carpenter,
Jenna Ortega, who plays Tara Carpenter, Jasmine Savoy Brown, who plays Mindy Meeks Martin,
Mason Gooding, who plays Chad Meeks Martin, Skeet Ulrich, who plays Billy Loomis, Roger
Jackson, who plays The Voice, Dermal Malroni, who plays Detective Bailey, Jack Champion,
who plays Ethan Landry, Josh Sagara, who plays Danny Brackett, Liana Liberato, who plays
Quinn Bailey, Devin Nicoda, who plays Anika Kayoko, and then we have Hayden Panatier,
who plays Kirby Reed.
I think that's every note there.
Yeah.
I think.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
Was this the first movie that, like, did Hayden Panatier come out of retirement for this movie?
I actually do not know.
That's a great question.
Let's see if she was.
Because, I mean, she hasn't been in anything else, or at least she hasn't been credited
for anything since 2018.
Yeah, maybe she did.
I mean, if she did, that's awesome.
Oh yeah.
Just looking up this article from Vanity Fair.
So it says Scream 6 was not only a homecoming for her in returning to the franchise, it
was also a returning to the screen after a four-year hiatus from acting.
That's awesome.
That is really cool.
I'm so glad that she did.
She freaking helped this movie out a lot.
Oh yeah, absolutely.
So yeah, what's your top three look like?
Actually, I'm assuming Sam and Tara are maybe top two?
Yes, yeah, absolutely.
Okay, same here.
So let's do...
Okay, who's your number one?
Number one, I'd probably give...
Okay, same here.
So our one and two are the same.
So do we want...
So let's do...
So we know one and two are the same, so let's do three, four, and five.
Okay.
Let's see, so number five...
That's hard.
Because I have like my three and four picked out.
Five isn't where I struggle a little bit.
But I got this.
You know, five...
Just because I liked the way that she played the character was really good, and her reveal
as one of the Ghostface killers was my favorite of it.
So I'll give number five to Liana Liberato, who played Quinn Bailey.
I really enjoyed her performance.
Number four, I'm gonna give to Hayden Panettiere, Kirby Reed.
Loved seeing her back in this role.
She was probably my favorite part.
So seeing her come back into this role was fantastic.
It was one of the biggest things that I was looking forward to with six, and she did not
let me down.
And the idea that she becomes an FBI agent makes complete sense.
After surviving a Ghostface killing, I'd honestly want to go behind the scenes with people like
this behind bars.
And so number three, I would give to Jasmine Savoy Brown, who played Mindy.
Like I pointed out, I freaking loved her dialogue in this movie.
The way that she was explaining how everything works in this kind of sequel is just great.
Just her whole character throughout the movie, I just had such a blast with.
And I'm so glad that she is one of the survivors of this movie.
I appreciate the core four survived.
There's one that I'm just like, I'm calling total freaking bullshit on to surviving.
We will be getting into that.
Okay, cool.
Because yeah, when when so and when so this person came out on Gurney, I'm like, I think
I reached over to Christine.
I'm like, there's no fucking way that they survived.
There's no.
But anyway, I'm cursing.
I'm saying the F word a lot in this episode.
But I hurt my feelings.
Okay, cool.
Good.
Yeah.
So yeah, Jasmine's Jasmine is my number three.
She was she was freaking fantastic.
Yeah, that's my top five.
Yeah, I will say this.
A lot of the people that end up being the the ghost space killer freaking ruin their
performance in my eyes after they get revealed.
Fair.
Officer Bailey definitely ruined it for me when he was one of the ghosts.
Oh my gosh, dude.
All of them.
Like I was actually really digging Ethan and I really liked Quinn.
But seeing them like after the ghost face reveal, I hated them.
I'm like, gosh, you guys are so freaking annoying.
Fair.
Like, can we have one person that doesn't go complete bat shit when they get revealed?
No, no, because you have to be back.
I understand that.
But still, it's annoying.
You know, I just wait.
What are you saying?
No, I just know.
Can I actually just change one on mine?
I'm sorry.
Sure.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
I totally forgot about someone in this movie.
I'm kicking Quinn off of my top five.
Five is going to Gail.
Courtney Cox.
For some reason, I completely forgot about her.
But I'm thinking about her whole fight scene with Ghost Face and just the call that she
gets with Ghost Face.
It's so freaking great that, yeah, I got to give number five to Gail.
Sorry about that.
So, yeah, Quinn, you're off the list.
Gail takes your place.
Oh, man.
Let's see.
My number...
Okay, I'm going to go three, four, five instead of working my way up.
So my number three, I'm going to give to Hayden Panetteer, who played Kirby.
She's an amazing actress, dude.
She is so freaking good.
She can play suspicious so well.
I knew that she was helping and I was just like, yeah, we're freaking like team.
Let's solve this together.
And then the second they put that little shadow of doubt in our minds about whether or not
she was just psycho, that really tripped me up because I was like, oh, is she?
And I'll say it, I freaking fell for that shit so hard.
Oh, I did too.
Same here.
I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one.
But yeah, I was real freaking suspicious of her, especially the way that she locked the
gate.
I was just like, oh, something's up.
But yeah, freaking loved her.
Loved her.
Let's see, my number four.
My number four and five are going to be hard because those were like, like between Sam,
Tara and Kirby, those were the only ones I actually liked.
Damn.
All right, I'll give my number four to Jasmine Savoy Brown, who played Mindy.
I will say even though she did annoy me, she did do a really good job at selling everything
that she was meant to sell.
So fantastic job from her.
My number five, I think I'm going to give to Josh Sagara, who played Danny.
Oh, okay.
I thought I was super freaking sus of him for a long time.
I'm just like, yeah, it has to be.
Like I was super freaking and but I think what what sold me.
So this is what I thought was going to happen.
So when Sam and Tara are going inside the the shrine and she tells Danny to basically
bounce.
And he's like, oh, yeah, like she's like, we don't know you.
You're a stranger.
I'm just like, harsh, but true.
I'm like, good call, Sam.
And when he's like, oh, OK, like, yeah, like I totally get it.
Just be safe.
And and all that.
I was just like, OK.
And then when they turned around and I think it was because it was either Kirby or Sam
that blocked him from the view of the camera.
I was like, oh, shit, he's going to knock one of them out.
But yeah, because I was just my whole thing.
I was trying not to be suspicious of him.
But if screams taught me anything, you always be suspicious of the love interest.
True that.
So I was really freaking suspicious of him.
But luckily, he played.
He ended up being like the nice guy and ended up working out.
Really glad I ended up being wrong on that.
So yeah.
And then, of course, like we can't not talk about the sisters real quick.
Like, holy, they were so good.
Oh, yeah.
Even better in this one than they were.
I will say I was afraid they both snapped at the end of this movie.
I felt the same way.
Like it was like Sam getting all dressed up and.
In Billy's ghost face outfit that had me like thinking some things.
I was just like, oh, shit, like you guys broke her.
My question for you is just because I don't know for me, I find it kind of thing is the
whole like them driving the idea home that, oh, it's in your blood.
You were born to be a killer.
It's what your dad did.
I am honestly getting tired of hearing that shit.
I know it's supposed to be in her character, but if I hear someone one more person say
to Sam, it's in your blood.
You're a true killer.
No, that's not how it fricking works.
Yeah.
You could choose not to kill her.
Her therapist pissed me off.
Oh, yeah.
Her therapist was a dick.
Oh, I was glad when Ghostface killed him.
Dude, she this might be on Sam, too, but she picked a real shitty therapist.
Yeah, she really.
Like, why did she choose one that was so obviously into horror movies?
Straight up.
Like, I'm not sure if you caught this like in the background, but he had little Adams
family figures in the background.
Oh, I did not catch that.
Yeah, like they were like, it wasn't like pop figures or anything, but they were just
like little bobblehead looking figures or like, you know, those it's just like really
big fat like characters and like it's not obvious.
Like it never showed them like super obviously on his on his table.
But you could definitely make out that one of them looked like super like Pugsley.
And then there was a couple others that looked like Morticia and Gomez.
Yeah, I didn't catch Wednesday.
I did like for sure I saw a Morticia Gomez.
I think I saw Uncle Fester and I saw Pugsley.
I did not see Wednesday, but it was like in the background, like they didn't like I said,
they didn't focus on that whatsoever.
So yeah, I was just like I would be super like the last person that I would want to
talk to in a situation like that where I'd have to go see a therapist would be someone
that is into horror movies in any regard.
Telling me is I could not be a best got it.
No, like you couldn't be my therapist if I was like, oh, this dude who's was obsessed
with a with a certain brand of horror movie tried to murder me.
Like the last person I want to go talk to is someone who's into horror movies, because
obviously the horror movie fan base is nuts.
So yeah, anyway, just just needed to bring up.
Anyway, what are you thinking for acting?
Um, I mean, just because like, you know, Sam and Tara were most of the supporting cast.
I would probably say I'm like the same as my story.
I might actually give a few bonus points for Sam and Tara.
So I'm actually going to be up at it like an eighth.
All right.
Next up, we have character development.
But with this being a horror movie, we are following logic.
And dude, this was absolutely shit.
So which one do we want to start with?
I know the one that you're wanting to talk about.
Okay.
Um, but I wanted to bring up real quick the bullshit final fight between Sam and Detective
Bailey.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
What in the actual ass was that?
So for those of you who chose to listen that hadn't seen this movie, Tara is hanging off
of this balcony, getting swiped at by what's his name, Ethan.
And she tells Tara, oh, drop me.
And she's like, all right here, hands her a knife, drops her and she kills or she starts
stabbing Ethan or Tara starts stabbing Ethan.
Then Sam leans over, grabs a gun, pulls the gun on Quinn, which I don't know why the hell
Quinn didn't just charge her.
Yeah, she's literally as she's holding on to Tara, she's like just creep, like slowly
walking up to her.
I'm like, you could have ended this like 20 seconds ago.
Yeah, like your death is on you at this point.
Yeah.
So Sam like leans over, grabs a gun, points at Quinn, shoots her in the head.
She falls dead.
And then right behind her is Detective Bailey, who watches as his daughter falls to the ground
and Sam makes some snarky comment about losing her kid or losing his kid.
And then she goes to fire again and click no bullets.
Totally fair.
Like, I feel like that builds enough suspense, like go for it.
But what threw me off and what I'm calling bullshit on is Detective Bailey freaking charges
at Sam instead of pointing the gun at her and shooting.
And he doesn't even pull the trigger until she freaking like football tackles him to
the ground.
Like she freaking like body checks him.
He's like falling over and then bam bam, like pops off a couple shots.
I'm like, you're a freaking idiot.
Like, so stupid.
You have a gun.
You dip shit.
So I really hated that scene.
A lot of my issues were with like the final.
Oh yeah, honestly, I feel all that because all like the kills up until that point, like
make sense, you know, completely get it.
Like even the whole Quinn thing, the way that they explain it, it makes sense.
I get it.
But do not get me started on when, on when they, so the two, I'm assuming it's the two
kids that are in this attire in the scene.
They have Chad on his knees and they are both stabbing him at the same time repeatedly in
the chest area.
Repeatedly.
Each of them probably gets at least 10 stabs in, if not more.
Now he was straight up getting used like a pin cushion.
He straight up was.
And I know I'm sure people are going to say, yeah, but you know, they weren't hitting any
vital arteries, shit like that.
I don't give a fuck.
No, there is, there is no way that not one of those stabs would have hit something.
There is no freaking way.
So when he, so yeah, when he's like stabbed like 40 freaking times and he falls to the
floor, I'm like, yep, he dead.
Yeah.
Complete sense.
But no.
At the end, he is brought out on a freaking gurney and I call absolute bullshit.
There is no way that you can be, survive being stabbed, especially in the chest area that
close to the heart because there's no way that they did not hit that vital organ and
survive.
There's no freaking way.
The guy was stabbed close to 50, if not more than 50 times.
Yeah.
That guy was mutilated.
That's a good line.
Ridiculous.
Like Caleb said, he was used as a pin cushion.
Yeah, straight up.
It was just my hell.
It was so dumb.
Like, dude, and I'll say, so this is another issue that I had with the movie.
Where were the significant kills?
Everyone important survived.
Sam survived.
Tara survived.
Don't want to kill them off.
Brian, Mindy survived.
Chad survived.
Freaking Gale survived.
The only people that didn't were the two freaking ghost faces, their dad, who is also, I guess,
one of the ghost faces.
I think Kirby survived.
Yeah.
And Anika.
Anika was the only death in their group.
The only scene that I can think of that it was definitely clearly a thing or ghost face
thing.
Like, the ghost face outfit was the beginning.
I truly believe that it's him that says who gives a fuck about the movie.
I don't think it was either.
But that's the only time that I can really think.
Yeah.
Dude, I want to address something.
What is up with the freaking bullshit superhuman strength that the ghost face mask seems to
give people?
Dude, straight up.
I brought this up to Christina because it's revealed that the one that takes on Gale in
her house is...
What's the daughter's name again?
Quinn.
So it's revealed that that's her that takes on Gale.
I don't know how strong she is.
I'm sure she's very strong.
But she lifts a whole mountain of a man because Gale's boyfriend looks pretty buff.
She freaking lifts his dead body up and throws it through a freaking window.
Yeah.
Bullshit.
Yeah, and she is dinky.
She's five foot seven.
Like I get it.
You'd be amazing.
You'd be amazed with what you can do when you have that much aggression and anger and
just adrenaline.
But still, I'm calling bullshit.
You're not throwing a full grown man through a glass shelf.
Yeah.
I am sorry.
No.
Yeah.
When they revealed that, I'm just like, that's not me being like, oh, you know, like she
could totally be that strong.
I believe she's that strong.
But there's no freaking way that someone could throw a dead body that hard through a freaking
window.
Like, she freaking chucked that shit.
Yeah, no joke.
So if that was freaking Quinn, which it had to be because wasn't Ethan with them or no?
I think he was.
I'm pretty sure.
Yeah.
Quinn and Detective Bailey were both with Sam and Tara.
So it had to be Quinn.
So yeah, she freaking threw a grown ass mountain of a man around like a rag doll.
Yeah.
Freaking ridiculous.
Got in a big ass fight with Gale, which I mean, whatever.
The other one that I'm not super buying is little string bean Ethan.
Fair.
Like freaking really unbelievable.
They must have been freaking like roided out or something because the feats that they were
able to pull off were just not even remotely in line with the shit that happened or didn't
match their physique whatsoever.
So yeah, this was one of the movies I had a real big issue with the fighting.
And this isn't like an issue I've had with Scream in general.
Like it's the freaking bullshit that they think they can get away with because they're
like, oh, it's Ghostface.
It could be anyone.
No, it can't.
Make the feats suitable for who's under the mask at the time.
Yep, exactly.
Because once you start going back, once you reveal who the killer is and you're able to
pinpoint who was wearing the mask at that exact kill, you start to get a little bit
of plot holes.
Plot holes is being real nice.
Yeah.
So unfortunately with this one, I am not very high.
Fair and same.
The question is how high are you or how low are you?
I'm definitely below my writing.
I think I'm at like a solid 75.
Dude, I was thinking the same.
All right, where this movie kind of redeems itself, effects, the effects in this were
really good.
Especially that freaking opening scene with the whole roommate in the fridge.
Like, oh yeah, no joke.
That was just straight up haunting.
The Ghostface killers in this one, even Sam, like they don't f around when it comes to
stabbing someone because like most Ghostface killers will stab someone a couple of times.
Oh, these people go like freaking like 10, 15, 20 times.
Like Jesus.
I know.
It's like they freaking owe money or something.
Yeah.
And like how like the, I forget his name, but Flash from the Spider-Man movies.
He's the first like Ghostface killer we see, which I love that they do like such a different
idea with that because he takes off the Ghostface costume and just throws it into his backpack
after he kills Samara Weaving's character.
What the fu?
Like that's new.
I love that.
But then, you know, he inevitably dies by the real Ghostface in this movie.
But yeah, the freaking like how he's talking to Ghostface on the phone and he's just like,
yeah, the more I stabbed her, the more she felt like a piece of me.
And I'm just like, dude, you sound like you're getting a freaking heart on from this shit.
Yeah.
It was a little too much.
I'm like, God damn.
Okay.
Just calm down here, buddy.
Yeah, it was a bit much.
But I mean, damn.
Yeah, I swear.
He stabs Samara Weaving like over 10 times.
Easily.
Like freaking easy.
Dude, like especially at the ending when Sam kills Officer Bailey, for how many times she
stabs him, like, are you sure you're not your father's child, because you're not exactly
giving yourself a fair point here.
You're letting your Loomis show.
Question for you, because maybe how well do you remember Scream 5?
Pretty decent.
Okay.
Because me and Christine were talking about this.
Has it ever said who Billy Loomis had sex with to for Sam to be born?
Because it wasn't Sydney.
Right?
No.
Who was it?
I don't know exactly who it was.
But I think it was a case of being unfaithful.
So from what I remember, I think it was like just a one time fling where Sam's mom got
pregnant, went to or kind of left the school, and then got with Sam's quote unquote dad,
eventually had Tara.
Yeah, so I think it was just kind of a one time fling situation.
It was either that, it was either just like a pre Sydney or mid Sydney.
Like how you put that.
Yeah, I have to, hold on, I need to look it up.
Samantha Carpenter is the illegitimate daughter of Billy Loomis and Christina Carpenter.
Sam always believed her legal father, Mr. Carpenter, was her biological father.
One day when she was 13, Tara was eight, she was searching the attic for Christmas presents,
and she found her mom's diaries, which revealed that she was actually born to another man
whom her mother had an affair with in high school.
The man was none other than Billy.
Sam was shocked by this revelation, demanded an explanation from her mother, unaware that
her father was listening, and as a result of the confrontation, he left the family in
anger.
Mr. Carpenter abandoned the family around Tara's eighth birthday.
Okay, so it doesn't say anything regarding a timeline.
All it shows is that Sam's mom was the one that was having the affair.
It doesn't say anything about Billy being unfaithful as well.
Okay, interesting.
Yeah, at least not that I can, yeah, I'm not seeing anything else.
So yeah, so it was...
I lose when I go back and watch Scream 5 again.
But yeah, like I said, it wasn't anything timeline-wise, there was nothing shown.
Even if you go, like, so I'm on the Scream Wiki page.
She was mentioned in Scream 2022.
She was, she had an, or she is the ex-fling of Billy Loomis.
Yeah, so she cheated with Billy.
That doesn't say if... anyway, I forget what was the point we were trying to make with
that?
I straight up forgot.
Anyway, the other, like, the effects that they had in this, I can't think of a single one
that felt not good.
I agree.
Blood looked good, prosthetics looked good.
I feel like something that I've passed Scream movies have done is excessive blood.
But I think the only kill that I felt may have looked a bit excessive was Quinn's boyfriend
when he was, like, in the shower.
Yeah, yeah, that's fair.
Yeah, that's the only one I can...
Other than that, like, all the other ones felt super consistent.
I gotta say, the freaking kill of Anika when she fell from the ladder.
Oh, damn.
Oh, but the prosthetics looked...
Dude, if that wasn't a freaking dummy, like, I would be genuinely shocked.
Like, that... the freaking hit of that, like, the impact was just brutal.
And then, like you said, the prosthetics that they put on her afterward looked incredible.
Like, I had a hard time, like, watching.
Oh, dude, same.
It was so freaking good, so major props to whoever worked on that.
Otherwise, like, the other kills were good.
The one... the guy in the fridge looked good.
Oh, the freaking therapist getting stabbed in the freaking face, like, that was rough.
Damn.
Like, all of that shit looked really freaking good.
And I think this is where the movie freaking shines.
Oh, yeah.
What are you thinking with effects?
Oh, dude, for how solid they were.
That's about where I'm at, too.
I'm actually might be a point or two higher.
I'll give it a 92 just for shits and giggles.
All right, next up we got music.
Pretty solid.
I think it was only one song that, like, when I think of Scream, or like when I hear that
song, I don't think that there was really, like, songs and, like, credits like those
pretty good.
I mean, I could be wrong besides, like, that red right hand.
Not really.
I wasn't even super impressed with the end credits song.
I did like the... because I actually download In My Head.
I thought that was a good song.
Yeah, I can't think of, like, anything that just, like, stood out other than, like, that
one song that you brought up.
So I'm somewhere between a six or a seven.
So I mean, if you wanted to go up higher, I'll go... yeah, I can definitely go seven.
Yeah, like I said, if you're going to go a little higher, I might need you to...
I might need to listen to the soundtrack.
But if you're going seven, then yeah, I can meet you at seven.
All right, next up we got costumes.
And dude...
Dude, this movie just gets props from me for the fact that literally the killer was leaving
the mask from each case of the Ghost Face killings.
Like it was so freaking cool, like, and it led up to the Ghost Face mask worn by Billy.
Such a freaking cool idea and it was so well executed.
I loved it so much.
So like the costumes get, like, a huge boost from me for that.
Oh yeah.
Easily.
I mean, everyone else's costumes, it's a horror movie.
It's basic as basic can be.
But the Ghost Face costumes, like each mask felt like its own... it had its own, like,
character to it.
Like, and it was fantastic.
I honestly, I think the biggest sin of this movie is not giving us what that room looked
like with all the masks on.
Dude, straight up.
Oh my god.
That would have been so cool.
That would have been the shit.
And I'm so bummed out that we didn't get to see something like that.
So I mean, damn.
Like that was such a cool... a cool room.
Just like the shrine itself was so epic, so not being able to see it in its entirety was...
it freaking bummed me out.
Just a bit.
I mean, obviously I'm not gonna dock the movie because of that.
It was something we didn't get to see, but...
But still though, I'm...
Yeah.
Honestly, my only issue is maybe figuring out, like...
I don't know if I can justify a ten.
I don't think I can either.
Like I'm at a strong ass nine though.
I am too.
Like honestly, I am too.
Like, don't get me wrong.
Like everyone's costumes, like they looked decent and whatnot.
Like it worked for the movie.
So I think with them, I'd be somewhere about a seven-ish if it was just them.
But the utilization of the ghost face mask was so wonderfully done.
And setting this in a time, like during Halloween, like freaking...
Perfect.
Yeah, genius.
And then like you got to understand why we were seeing so many ghost face masks.
Because we were seeing them everywhere.
And so like their utilization of that, their justification for using so many of those masks
was perfect.
So yeah, I'm at a very strong nine as well.
All right, last up we got our own personal score.
I want to hear like your final thoughts for our last.
So okay.
Like finish off on those.
So I really, really enjoyed this movie.
It was a really fun time.
Honestly, any complaints that I have are maybe just on creativity with the kills.
And like don't get me wrong, there were very creative kills, but I feel like they could
be taking them a bit further than they do.
The story was good.
Got a little too meta there in the middle, which kind of meh.
But I mean, overall, it was a really compelling story.
They definitely throw you for a loop every once in a while.
Like the whole Quinn thing threw me so hard.
I was just like, that's bullshit.
Because I feel like we saw her body.
But then like, as I'm thinking about it now, it's like, did we though?
So I have a hard time with that one.
But I loved it.
Loved the legacy, like seeing the legacy character, seeing Hayden Panettiere come back to play
Kirby was really, really exciting.
So with that, I think I'm going to be like an 86.
Yeah, I agree with all the points that Caleb said.
This was a really, really fun sequel.
I would compare this one to how I felt about Halloween Kills.
This is definitely the kind of horror movie that you go to the theaters for, just to have
a bloody good time in clever ways.
So especially for that, I think I enjoyed it more than Scream 5, and that's not a bash
in Scream 5 at all.
But yeah, the whole New York setting worked so well for the Scream franchise.
The returning characters, the further they take their character, the legacy characters
are great.
Hayden Panettiere, like Caleb said, wonderful having her back, and even Courtney Cox, I
really enjoyed her.
So yeah, overall, I really enjoyed this Scream.
Like I pointed out, it still feels though, when it comes to the Ghostface reveals and
this new, I'm assuming it's going to be a trilogy, so I'm going to say in this new trilogy,
the Ghostface reveals are not as impactful as Wes Craven made them, but I feel that if
I'm looking past that, I appreciate what these two directors are in keeping this Scream franchise.
So I am going to be slightly below Caleb though.
I'm going to be completely fair.
Alright well, with that, going through our scores real quick.
Starting off with story, we were at a very strong 80.
Moving over to writing, we dropped down a little bit, sitting at a 77.5.
Acting averaged out to an 81.5.
Character development was probably the lowest that we gave, so that one was sitting at a
75.
Or not character development, logic.
The effects got a significant boost, sitting at a solid 91.
Music slightly above average, sitting at a 7.
Costumes got a pretty decent bump, just because of the Ghostface costume and how iconic it
is.
Sitting at a 9.
And then our personal score averaged out to an 85.
So with that, the final Albreos letter grade for Scream 6 has come to a B-.
Alright, not bad.
Yeah, not bad at all.
I'll be real, based off of the scores alone, I did not think it was going to get that high.
Yeah, I thought it was going to be in the C-.
Yeah, same here.
It's actually one of our stronger B-s.
Alright, hell yeah.
Yeah, it's um, so out of our B- movies, it's the third one.
Yeah, so that is interesting.
I thought it'd be closer to a C-, but I mean, guess not.
Um, so it is sitting right now, like I said, it's sitting in B-, but it is sitting at an
82.5.
So that puts it above The Hunt, which is at an 82.47.
It's above Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers, which is at an 82.43.
It is above Let's Be Cops, which is at an 82.37.
As well as Smile, which is also at an 82.37.
It is also above Ron's Gone Wrong, which is at an 82.31.
So I think that's the 5-1-2-1.
Yeah, that's 5.
So that's where it's sitting above, going what it's below.
It is below Mulan, the remake, which is at an 82.62.
It's below The Greatest Showman, which is at an 82.93.
And then getting into the B- range, it is below Jumanji, Welcome to the Jungle, which
is at an 83.06.
It is below Violent Night, which is at an 83.18.
And then finally, it is below Shazam, which is at an 83.25.
Interesting.
Long time ago.
Sorry.
No, you're good.
I'm just having a heart.
So it is below Scream 2022.
Yeah, so Scream 2022 scored a B-plus, and it is sitting at an 86.56, where Scream 6
is sitting at an 82.5.
So that is a 4% difference.
I actually did.
OK.
I enjoyed Scream 5 a little bit more than I did Scream.
We need to get the Scream franchises scored as well.
So yeah, that's where it's sitting.
