"Scream" Needs a Diversity Remake!


POCs or LGBTQABC123 need to be the main cast to make this movie relevant to today's audience. The old movie was not diverse and that's problematic. I'm offended!

I think that the movie was criticized when coming out for having not a single black actor. The opening scene in the sequel is sort of meant to serve as a response to the criticism.

Kenny was fat shamed by Gail Weathers. Diverse enough for me.

I could also see Randy being gay. He was more interested in watching Halloween instead of hooking up with the other girls....and Halloween was another white-on-white crime movie.

It would make more sense if Billy and Stu were gay/bisexual given how erotic they were being during the finale

reply

I think they were gay lovers

What does Halloween have 2 do with being gay? I'm gay. SIT DOWN BITCH 💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺💺

Well, Randy really was a fat tub of lard. By 1996 standards, anyway. Today he'd be gaunt.
