Yes, Sidney is the general lead of the franchise, so any installment she's in, she's basically the lead by default. But, in 3 she was sidelined a bit, mainly because Campbell's availability. And then in 4 and 5, she was also sidelined, more from the narrative choice to focus on new teenagers. In 5, I think her phone call with Dewey is her only appearance in the first hour. I want her to be central again.
shareDitto. I want her front and centre, with Hayden next to her.
shareSidney as Ghostface is the only thing left to do because anything less and it'll be nothing more than a retread
shareTrue, but also feels too late for that. 3 was when they should've done that if they were going to. MAYBE 4. But now it's been so long, so many times. Plus, Ghost Face must be defeated. But she's gotten her happy ending, married to Mark and with kids. So it would also make no sense. I think in 7, Ghost Face will be really after Mark (opening kill?) and her kids. So it'll be about her protecting them. Ghost Face will likely get Mark and none of the kids because Hollywood. Plus, it seems clear that the original intent was for Sam to finally go dark and be Ghost Face in 7, which reinforces the 3-film rule for turning into Ghost Face, a la when they should've done it with Sidney if they were going to. Especially with 3 being so tied to Maureen's back story. Which makes me wonder what, if anything, they would've done with Sam and Tara's mom in 7.
shareExactly it is what they should have done in V.
