I hope this doesn't make the same mistakes Scream 4 made.


I don't hate 4, but it felt pretty stale. Missed opportunities galore. They didn't take any chances. 5 needs to have some balls and inspiration.

Gale should have died and I hated Scream 4's intro. I love me some emma roberts

4 did a lot right on paper, it's just the execution that felt subpar.

I would like to see them poke fun at horror movie reboots since the first film was slasher movies in general, the 2nd was sequels, and the 3rd was trilogies. Like maybe there are new characters added who are the “new” versions of the main characters (ie Rey in Star Wars sequels being the “new” Luke Skywalker) and they play up this aspect, and perhaps they also intentionally ignore elements from some of the sequels like how many reboots will ignore other sequels (ie Halloween 2018), so maybe Randy or Billy could be back without explanation.
