Scream 4

[BrentleyJames23]

Cinescape reports that a scooper contacted them us yesterday explaining that Miramax and its specialty offshoot Dimension Films are developing a number of ideas for possible fruition, some of which are original works while others could be sequels to past Miramax/Dimension films.

"As you probably already know, they're doing a lot of 'em. Lots direct to DVD. And it looks like there is more on the way. There's talk of a new SCREAM movie, heralded by producer Cath Konrad, that's supposed to get into gear next year sometime. What upset me was hearing that it wouldn't be a Kevin Williamson - Wes Craven film. It'll be penned and no doubt directed by some other unnamed hack. OK, so as far as [X] knows, it'll have the original cast in it - but who cares if it isn't Craven?! I think they've been thinking about doing another one for a couple of years and have seen a good bunch of treatments".

[C_Bone]

They should just let it alone, they already dropped the ball by letting Ehren Kruger write the 3rd. tHat movie is a pile

[Mr.Garrett81]

Im sorry Scream3??? What the hell it ended just fine, although S3 lacked in s lot of ways. Leave it alone no more Scream, or itll just be cheesy. Poor Sidney, the chick never gets a break from ghost face.

Theres no need for another one.I mean,how many times can you beat a dead horse,really?

I agree. Besides, I thought it ended on a nice note, so why not leave it like that?

[Creepingmouth]

I hated Scream 3.I could kill if a Scream 4 will be out

[MichaelMyers]

Leave it alone. Its dead. All the loose ends were closed in Scream 3. Nothing is left to do in the series.

[mikeymoves]

They could start a new series of films that have nothing to do with Ghostface, but use the "scream" name and have a different story every sequel... wait a minute....

hahahaha! scream 4: season of the w.........werewolf!!!! yeah!! werewolf!!! but that might turn off the fans, so lets call it CURSED!!! yeah! cursed!!!!

[NCamp]

Hmmm, Im torn. Cause I like scream and I think I could be entertained with seeing Sydney, Gail, and Dewey again. But the tied up the third in such a way that it would be tough to do another. Unless one of the 3 actually became ghost face or something.

[Soulless]

There should be no Scream 4. Scream isn't like the Nightmare, Friday, or Halloween films where there's one killer that comes back to life to exact more punishment, it's a different person each time. How many psychopaths are there that would carry on a legacy that was only meant to torment one person? Besides, all the Scream films are connected with one story. How much more can they really stretch it to include more killers? And how many more rules can there be? Scream 3 told that all bets are off and that anyone can die, even the main character.

[JWILL2]

how many of you would see S4 if it came out

[Soulless]

[Mr.Garrett81]

I would go see it because I love horror flicks but I probably wouldn't enjoy it.

I do not think this is true - the only one I can see showing up is David Arquette and I still do not think he will. Courtney Cox is to big for it now and Neve Campbell probably is happy with the ending in 3.

Besides look what happend to Scary Movie 3 without the Wayans... not as good.

Have Deputy Dewey and Gale Weathers on their honeymoon when Ghostface shows up again,and dont steal that scenario Mirimax bitches.

[norman745]

Hey, whats goin on Halloween Fam. I Came across this from Darkhorizons. Looks like a fourth "Scream" is underway afterall and the original cast looks to be returning. Wes Craven & Kevin WIlliamson don't seem to be involved though (according to sources). Clcik the link below to see the complete story and tell me what you guys think...

I don't know, but beating a dead horse is pretty fun. J/K


If handled right it could be interesting. If I were to make Scream 4 I wouldn't include the original cast. Their chapter is closed. I would start a new chapter and use the Ghost Face as the killer.

I agree with most of your statement. I really loved Scream 1 and 2 but Scream 3 was just "ehh."

[TheThorn666]

they already killed the dude whats going to happen next? there is nothing to wright about!

[hallobabe25]

Well, Sidney could go insane and become the killer. You never know what the movies will think of.

[Bucky-lives]

after taking a great deal of time contemplating your question i have finally arrived at my answer....

you can beat a dead horse as many times as you feel like or until the horse is just a pile of goo. in other words if scream 4 is made and it makes some money we will no doubt see 5. then 6. maybe 7. i did have another answer to this question, when i was drinking last night but then of course i thought you were talkin' about an actual dead horse.

[Andrew73]

HMM depends on story, Scream was only series that I saw all three on big screen.

[boogeyman87]

This was my thinking last year. But it just seems too obvious now.

[NCamp]

I read somewhere awhile ago that when Craven gave Campbell a role in The Curse, when she signed the contract there was also a stipulation that if a Scream 4 were to occur she would be in. I dont know how much merit I have or if they do that type of stuff but that is just what I read.

[blicdh]

The series ended as a trilogy. Plus, unless Randy made another video tape explaining the rules to a.....crappy sequel, then we would be stuck with no mentor. I would like to end this message with a quote.

"I don't know what the hell is going on man.....you wanna go get high?"- Towelie, South Park:D

[Dusk]

We can't possibly see where they could go with the story because we're just average joes. The screenwriters can indeed see places to go with the story, that's why they get paid the big bucks and we're all pumping gas (figuratively speaking).

Bring it on. But bring on a second trilogy. Won't upset the harmony that way.

[Nightmare13]

I think the Scream trilogy ended fine, Scream 4 could be a good sequel, but then again, it could be shit :rolleyes:

[kerrsth]

oh yeah...this should be a hoot

[DarthMyers]

Way to resurrect a 6 month old thread!

[ScreamQueen91]

No offense, but I will hear no such thing as a new Scream sequel. I think the trilogy should be left alone. It may come out cheezy and as far as I can tell Scream 3 left no opening for another sequel.

The door swung open at the end of the film and there was a message on Sid's machine that she didn't check.

Not to mention when you have a franchise like Scream where there are different killers each time, there's always openings for a sequel.

That's not to say that I feel there should be one, I think it's a great trilogy and they may be better off leaving it alone; but there's certainly ample opening for another film though.

[Darkseid]

A movie like Scream shouldn't have sequels at all. It was suppose to be life imitating art. Now it's a big stupid joke of unending Ghostfaces who wanna terrorize the same people over and over.

[benluvin]

i think it should stay a trilogy, but id go see it. i liked the series.
another note: i like how everyone is against it, but when asked if we'd see it, we all say yes. kinda ironic

[Myers22]

Just a thought, but what if they made it like a PREQUAL?? Maybe we will see how Sidney's brother toyed with Billy, showing him the video of his mother and Billy's father.. Hmm.. Could have potential. But then,what about a killer? Hmmm... Guess that wouldn't work, seeing as how the killer didn't come along until the original Scream. Maybe they could use the mother as the one who is stalked by Ghost face. Then again, we KNOW who the killer is... Hmmm.. Running out of ideas. Perhaps, Sidney's own FATHER could be the killer. After living with the death of his wife on his conscious, perhaps "transference" theory (psychology term) takes over and he transfers his angers and frustrations he has for her murder towards Sidney.. Hmmm... Like was mentioned before, writers can come up with some good stuff. Being a future screen writer/journalist myself, I should be able to come up with better storylines than the ones listed. Just some quick thoughts.

I wouldn't mind a prequel, but it would probably better to leave the series as a trilogy and leave it alone.

[slasherfan]

I really don't think they should make an S4. It'd just be for the money, and more than likely turn out to be an inferior film. I also don't see the main stars returning to the series since it's been pretty well tied up in S3. Too bad Randy's dead, I'd go see it even if it was crappy as long as he was in it (not just in some videotape though). I always thought he was the best charactor. Reminded me of myself.

[SonOSam]

Well, i'm not really for it or against it. Although, it's actually fitting. Think about it. The Scream movies were a nod to horror and slasher movies. They explored the rules of horror movies, horror sequels, and even the rare trilogy. F13th part 4 promised or implied it would be the last. Halloween 3 indicated it would take series in new direction only to return to Michael in part 4. Also, as certain horror movies became franchises they explored or just came up with new stuff that became pretty much stretched thin. For better or for worse. I'm curious to see what they come up with. I say go for it.

[thetodd]

I'd have no problem with another Scream trilogy as long as it has a different cast and storyline. No more of Sydney being stalked. Go in a different direction with a different person being stalked and for different reasons.

[Loomis 91]

They should have ended with the second film. The third was complete shit. If they make another sequel without Craven or Williamson it is bound to be even worse.

[myershall2]

Whoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Go scream 4

[Samhain1974]

For those confused by the door swinging open at the end of Scream 3 and claiming it's an opening for a sequel, you're wrong. The reason Sydney just turns and walks away after the door swings open is to show she is finally free of the fear she's been living with since the first movie.....I guess if the symbolism isn't spoken out loud some people just won't get it.

[myershall2]

Well really the only thing left open to a sequel is the un cheacked message on the phone.
Ghost face ould pull a I still don't know what you did last summer and attack on a escapeless island

They could always make the killer Billy's Father.

[Samhain1974]

I guess I totally missed that unanswered phone message all 9 times I've seen Scream 3 cause it's not on my DVD.

me to. ive seen the movie like 5 or 6 times, and ive never seen an unanswered phone message. i didnt even hear about it till i seen it on here. maybe it was cut out of my copy.

[Creepingmouth]

I'd rather see a Michael vs Silver Surfer movie than a Scream 4!
Scream 3 is the most annoying movie I've ever seen!

Well, like you said about the message that wasn't heard, there was an opening. That sort of thing, I believe, souldn't be touched. I just think it spruces up the ending-you know.

[Samhain1974]

I think people are talking about the fact the she reaches up to her ALARM SYSTEM on the wall and doesn't set it, they are mistaking her alarm system for an answering machine. Who puts an answering machine on the wall?

hmmm..Now that sounds right to me. I was wondering about the answering machine thing. I don't remember it, but I do remember the alarm. Good point.

[Jackolantern99]

Yeah, there's no reason to make a sequel after Scream 3. All the roads that could have been traveled were taken. The story seemed somewhat simple in the first two films, then there was a huge twist and the whole thing unwinded at the end of Scream 3. To find someone else crazy enough to try to kill Sidney Prescott would be ridiculous.

Though I must say, I disliked the ending of 3. There's just something akward about the last lines from whatshisface and Dewey and Gale, and the last shot of Sidney walking away was a little...quick. They could have gone with something a lot more effective if they'd tried.

[The New Guy]

I would see another Scream movie. I thought the first three were really good. My only beef with another movie coming out is that, more than likely, no one from the first three would return. I highly doubt Wes Craven would return. It just wouldn't feel right. I would see one, but I personally think they should just keep it as a trilogy.

However, I will say that the ending of Scream 3 wasn't that great. It wasn't bad, but it could have been better. I always wanted to see Randy be the killer in the final film.

[SonOSam]

Yeah, i figured the door being left open meant she wasn't afraid anymore and could get on with her life. They don't exactly need original cast or even the sidney prescott character. Nightmare on elm street continued without Nancy character, Friday the 13th continued without Tommy Jarvis char., Halloween continued without JLC for awhile anyway. It can be done. That doesn't mean it will be a masterpiece, but will maintain a following. Scream 4 could have new characters or maybe keep one or two. It could have a Randy character talk about horror franchises and give examples of what they do. There's a lot of cool things they could explore.
F13th had Jason. Halloween has Michael. Nightmare elm st. has Freddy. Scream had what..... More than one killer, however, they had the same mask/outfit. The concept that can continue could be exploring horror sequels/horror franchises/and the good, bad, and ugly aspects of them. Just a thought.

[slasherfan]

If they really wanna continue poking fun at horror films, they gotta go with a Scream titled film that goes in a totally differant direction, a la H3. It could freshen the series up, if the right people are involved.

[myershall2]

I have a question that I can also answer,


Who would you like to be the killer, or suspect to be the killer

[benluvin]

id have to say someone who hasnt been in the series yet. i want a whole new cast. maybe gail weathers to report on it after her a doowy hear about it, but thatd b it. and i wouldnt want them to b the killers.

The anger and rage and horror of being chased down and hunted for a handfull of years could be enough to make her snap and make sure that no one ever fucks with her again.

Why she's yet to pull a "Haute Tension" on one of her killer's asses is beyond me...

And it really doesnt matter. Its not about the ending or the twist my watson but about the quality of how you bring forth the story. Its the story Sean, it is. ;)

Becuase she finally goes insane. She cracks under the pressure of maybe a new begining of killers rising up copying the Woodsburough murders? Hmm? If that makes no sense to you I've got some books to recamend you where this takes place, and is played out rather well.

[Jackolantern99]

Exactly. Were Sidney's slow descent into madness shown with enough emotion and realism, a great revenge story could be played out that would rival the two sequels...

[benluvin]

i get it, i just dont really like it. i wouldnt want her to turn killer becuz itd ruin the 1st 3 imo. id rather a whole new cast copycating the woodsburough murders. maybe mention her and the original events, but not have her involved.

[slasherfan]

If they went with the same cast, make Sid the killer. And kill Dewey for real. That would make for something interesting.

Dewey Can't be killed! LOL he is the next Michael!!! J/k I think it would be cool to see another! as long as Sid Retunrs!

[SonOSam]

Like some have suggested...i too thought it'd be neat to have sydney prescott be the killer. Here's an idea...the Stab movies continued to be made and maybe Stab 4 was straight to video...and just released. For awhile we don't see a connection to Stab 4, but soon main detective or sheriff realizes that all the current victims just rented Stab 4. the body count would be (maybe) as many as Scream1,2, and 3 combined.

At some point the main detective/sheriff supposedly saves the day and shoots the killer dead. he removes killer's mask. maybe we don't see killer's face. He tells someone nearby that the killer is Sydney prescott. "She must have gone crazy. She's been through so much. She lost it and killed all these people." But, maybe he was the killer. Maybe Sydney WAS the killer. Maybe we're never shown killer's face, but are lead to believe it was Sydney....until Scream 5 of course. Just a thought.

I thought the third one was OK, but the identity of the killer was total BS. Why pull out some long lost brother? They should have just brought back someone thought to be dead from a previous film. I'm sure their was someone who could have survived and been driven to the brink of sanity enough to kill.

[fanatic986]

Sceam 3 was awesome. A perfect balance of comedy and horror. I love it.:D

But please...NO SCREAM 4!!!:mad:

[benluvin]

what are the updates. will there be a scream 4 or is it all just a rumor? i think i would be against another one unless they did it right. if they used all differetn ppl i dont think itd work as a scream. i could think of a story but i dont think ppl would like it much.

its nothing to great. just maybe that some other movie crazed guy tries to repeat the other 3 movies by going after some other ppl in his town, wherever it may be. after hearing about it doowy and gail go there to make sure it isnt related to them but get caught up in it, so the guy decides to go after all of them now including sidney to try to get the job done that no one else could.
something in that nature. nothing to great. it might kill the trilogy we have now and without randy in it, it wouldnt be the same.

[Cruel Intentions]

Leave the damn triliogy alone!! It's perfect.

[slasherfan]

And nothing without Randy. And I don't mean a fucking cop-out video. In other words, leave it alone.

[dellxp4]

I liked the 1st, 2nd I wasn't a fan of and 3 I pretty much hated. They should leave it alone

[myersRUNNER2]

I like the trilogy the way it is. If they are gonna make another sequel it has to be really good!

if they are gonna make another one, it better be good! ( doubtfully though )

What's the obsession with trilogies? Part three was done without the involvement of the original writer, so it wasn't REALLY the cap to the 3-part story. The best I can think of is that A) Trilogy sounds cool and B) the boxset is never going to be too expensive.

When I like a movie or movies, I want them to go on and on for better or worse. How are our lives better that certain movies have NOT been made? Really.

It's fear, basically.

Fear that a bad sequel will kill the good memories of what one had with the movie/s before it. Yes, that's a risk that you take going into a sequel. But same with any original movie that represents a genre (i.e. CURSED as part of the line of modern werewolf movies). But with the risk of pain comes the risk of reward.

SCREAM 4, 5, 6, etc. - bring 'em on, I say.

To think, if filmmakers had listened to the fear way back when, and stopped at NIGHTMARE ON ELM ST 3, FRIDAY THE 13TH 3D, and HALLOWEEN III SEASON OF THE WITCH. Yes, you'd have some lean mean boxsets on your shelf, but think of what you would have missed.

Give up your fear. You just may be rewarded.

thats a nice way to put it and never thought of it that way. i wouldnt mind seeing a scream 4 (going to get jumped) as long as it followed the same type of approach as the first 3 did.

[45 Lampkin Lane]

Moviehole.net and bloody-disgusting.com confirmed that the Weinstein Bros. have confirmed a Scream 4. Although, Wes Craven, Kevin Williamson or Neve Campell will not be involved. I know that BrentleyJames23 posted a similar thread, but his thread was a rumor thread.

Click on these two links for proof that Scream 4 is happening:

and

Now that the rumor is pretty much confirmed, discussion can continue in the existing thread. There's already 6 pages, so it's off to a good start.

Let it continue, only officially now. :)

Merged.

Thanks. I've been on the board so long I'd thought I'd have known not to do that by now.

We have confirmation, Roger! Scream 4, here we come. I'll definitely see this one in the movies, as I've seen the last one on the big screen too.

I can't wait to learn more information. In a way, I'm glad they're making another one. The curiosity of what it's about alone has gotten me interested. Hopefully we'll see a brand new cast and an awesome storyline.

Scream 4 with no Neve Cambell/Sydney, but apparently with Gail and Dewey?
Let me guess, the story will be that Syd has been found murdered and Gail and Dewey either go looking for the killer or are the killers next target(s), maybe both.
I guess if it's done right it might be okay, but if it happens the way I think it will, it will tarnish the end of Scream 3 where Syd apparently chases away her demons, much in the way that Ressurection ruined the ending of H20.

[Nightmare13]

Do you really think this could end up on video? Dimension/Weinstein. Co would be stupid, Scream 4 could make a lot of money.

[KruegerLives]

I really hope this project get's fucked up and nothing happens. Scream 3 brought closure to the story, it is perfect as a trilogy. I dont want to see Scream 4 ever happen. I hope those greedy producers burn in Hell for the mere thought of making this lame idea reality! It will never work and will not only destroy a perfect trilogy and taint the previous movies but it will just be terrible. I'm not even giving this piece of crap a chance, it's not worth the risk. Let Scream R.I.P! ;)

[Nightmare13]

I think the best thing to do is have it as a original story, maybe have it set in a small town where a kid is obsessed with the Stab movies and re-enacts deaths from those movies and things... just an idea, folks!

[SEXMACHINE]

If they made a Scream 4 I would see it. Hopefully they keep it fresh and bring something new to the series.

[Nightmare13]

That is all it needs to be good, fresh and something new. Well, it's need a good plot and stuff, but it's a copy of the first three it will just be boring.

[benluvin]

il see it, but i dont know what to expect. it has potential. i just hope they dont fuck it up.

[coryorton]

i'm not going to be expecting ANYTHING.

the one thing i'd want though, is to either not bring back courtney & david, or if they do, to kill them both off. The reason each Scream lowered in entertainment is because we knew each and every time they were going to keep on surviving.

I would even have Neve Campbell step to the side and play more of a sidekick veteran role. Have another youngster be the main focus and have Neves character come in to help stop the killer or something,as if shes finally become strong enough to fight the fears off of this neverending fakester killers.

Well, Neve Campbell isn't going to be in it, so you have one wish realized.
I am interested to see how they go about doing Scream 4. Will they have any people from the first three movies, or will they do a whole new storyline???

[Nightmare13]

Doing a whole new storyline is the best option!

[benluvin]

i think they should do a new storyline, but then i think it ruins the trilogy by calling it scream. i would rather use the same characters. if not i hope they at least mention the previous films.

[benluvin]

Well heres an idea.

The other 3 movies were based on that type (1st=horror, 2nd=sequel, 3rd=trilogy), so how about if they use a whole new cast to base it on a remake since of all the remakes coming out recently. Im sure people wouldnt like this, but if they must make more this could be a way to go.

[hallobabe25]

They should not do a Scream 4 bcuz like everyone has said, they tied up all the ends in the 3rd movie.

The only way I believe that they could possibly make another film is if Sidney goes crazy from all the past murders and she becomes Ghostface. I don't know if I would like it but it could be a plot they are thinking of.

Yah, I can't decide if I'm for or against it either. I love Sidney/Neve and I don't know how I would react to her being the killer. It could be awesome or it could completey suck.

[thetodd]

I'm all for Syd as the killer in S4. It would certainly shake things up.

[hallobabe25]

haha it sure would but I still don't know if I would like it.

Well, if they are going to do a Scream 4, they'll need ot do something different from the last three movies. Turning Syd into the killer would blow people away. It would also be neat if Dewey ended up as Ghost face.

Killing one of the top 3 (Sydney,Gail & Dewey) would correct the wrong move that Scream 3 made by letting them live.

You thought they should have killed all three of them in S3? I think they wanted to end the series on a happy note, but that did take some of the edge off.

[benluvin]

I think Dewey or Sid being the killer would be a great way to go if there is a 4th one. And whoever the killer is kills the other in the 1st scene. Like if Sid is the killer, she kills Dewey or vice versa. Gail has to live though, it wouldn't be right watching Monica die. :p

Any REAL news that this movie is gonna happen?? I wouldn't mnd it if it could be as good as part 1. 2 was ok and 3 was just plain horrible right up there with HR :rolleyes:

There are some rumblings about it and apparently Neve Campbell has decided not to be part of it.

[Horror Kitten]

Huh, I would think Neve would definitely be a part of it, I can't remember the last movie she was in.

I had read before that the Scream we know ended as a trilogy, and if they wanted to make a 4th somewhere down the road it would be a completely different film, ie the characters and plot of the first 3 would not be present at all.
Now that Neve will not return for a 4th hopefully they'll go with that idea again. I think the original Scream storyline is much better as a trilogy then it would be if they just kept making more on top of them.

[Frazetta]

No I'm not saying all 3 should have died but Dewey or Gail should have died & if they really wanted to make it shocking kill off just Sydney instead.

[Horror Kitten]

I like Gail and Dewey. Even though it is a horror series I think those 2 characters became too important and it would have really upset the audience (or maybe it's just me :P) to see them actually die.

I remember when it was first coming out and they were kept showing the previews for it. Do you remember in the comercials when you saw the knife flying at Dewey's head? I thought for sure they were gonna kill him off, and I was devastated. Not as upset as I was when they killed Randy, since I'm in love with Jaime ;), but really upset all the same.

I was saddened when I thought Sydney was finally defeated, I really believed she was dead. But it wouldn't have been as bad as if Gail or Dewey got it. Either way they did it the seriess needed closure, by keeping her alive they accomplished that, but her dying would have provided that closure too.
Avtually, I'm still kinda surprised they pulled that off and kept her alive.

[freethy]

I hate the scream movies...Or dawsons creek? It's hartd to tell them apart.

So what concrete information is there regarding Scream 4 so far? I couldn't find an entry on imdb.com, which is strange, especially if they're really making this movie.

[freakyfairy666]

i dont think the idea of a load more scream sequels is a good idea, its just different compared to halloweens, NOEL'S and friday 13ths plus everything was sorted out in number 3, no mysteries left!
i enjoyed the screams but they werent scary but i wud still go n see it

[MarcAlan33]

It has potential! Kevin Williamson faded away, but both him and Neve need money soon!

[Happy Herbs]

a direct to video scream, huh? I really dont see it working period. BUt Maybe if it was a bigger production they could make a prequel. Maybe the original killers rampage preceding part 1.

[MarcAlan33]

I think that S4 should have Neve be the killer! She deserves it!

[MarcAlan33]

OOOh I like where you are going! Prequel with mom!

[benluvin]

I wouldn't want a prequel. I think it would ruin what has already happened. I didn't really like how they introduced a new character in Scream 3. He's been there since before the beginning but we never new. I think Billy would have mentioned him to Sid, but yea. I wouldn't mind seein another film, but I don't think a prequel is neccasery.

The character in S3 that you're talking about would have been easier to accept if that had been the plan all along. It wasn't, though, was it? I know Kevin Williamson didn't write S3, but I guess they could have used his basic outline, if he had one.
If they do make an S4 (and let's be honest here; they will) I hope it either starts a whole new story or at least gives us something really edgy, like one of the original characters (Syd, Dewey, or Gail) as the killer.

I agree with you. I don't really want another Scream movie (no matter how big of fan I am) but if they do make it, it would have to be one of the main characters.

[MarcAlan33]

I also am open to all opinions. And an original cast member as a killer would be cool. (or a kin of) But What about someone from the Stab movies?

[PhantomPhart]

So this isn't being made?

I was under the impression it was being made as we were posting. I guess i had the wrong idea.

I think they should leave it alone. The trilogy is over now. Another sequel would no doubt suck. Make something new.

[Lonnie_Elamb]

Yeah, I would only be for this if one of the main charactors is killer. Don't think it can be Dewey, just because he's Dewey, and he walks very strangely now and wouldn't be fast enough, unless they say he got a special surgery of some type.

[MarcAlan33]

I love the fact that we all have opinions about S4, yet we donnot think it works. Those who dislike s2 and 3 are very kind to say they would see s4.

[MarcAlan33]

so the money you would put forth lets make a fund for s4

[yensed]

I think it would work if maybe Gail is the main Target.. Maybe because of something she said in a book? But Please, if anything, don't make Dewey or any of the main characters(Sid, Dewey or Gail) a killer. That "Twist" is so over done and isn't even a twist in movies anymore.

What if he walked funny in two and three to throw ppl off, then came back to be the killer. oooo now theres a twist that would.......well probably suck. Nevermind, pretend I didn't type that.

lol, yeah, I bet Sidney would be a better killer than him, but I just don't see it being that great of a movie no matter what they do. Oh well, I'll see it anyways at some point, but I'll probably enjoy it if I go in with REALLY low expectations, like I do a lot of the time.

Yea, the same for me. I would rather just leave the trilogy alone, but I'd see it. Who knows though, maybe they could write something that adds on to the story in a good way.

[freakyfairy666]

i dont think thats possible tho cos like they seemed to tie off all loose ends in 3 so they wud have to come up with a totally different angle of doing it ie. motive for killing etc. etc. leave it as a trilogy i love my box set!!! XD

[Horror Kitten]

I wouldn't want any of the three main characters to be the killer. I actually hope if they do make it, they leave the other story alone completely. They should maybe mention Syd, Dewey, Gale, and/or Woodsboro, but then just move on with a different story. New killer, new victims, new plot. Either way it'll more than likely be crap, but at least this way, instead of ruining our idea of the Scream trilogy, they fuck up they're own movie(s) with the same name. If you get what I mean... ;)

I understand what you mean and I agree with you. Don't mess with the trilogy but make another movie to screw up, lol.

[Lonnie_Elamb]

Yeah, they could just make this like a Halloween 3, none of the main charactors or anything like the other movies, then maybe a few years down the line they'll get some WONDERFUL idea to make Scream 5. I'm sure everyone would LOVE that! :cool:

I know I'm a huge Scream fan and you'd think I would want them to make another Scream movie but I really don't want them messing up the Trilogy. :( That's why if they even make more movies I say just make everything different...just keep the title "Scream" if anything.

That's the problem. Making something good and not just put together for money. Also if they keep making more loose ends, itl take away the credibilty the 1st movie gave it.

[myersfan1348]

After thinking ide like to see another one..... Maybe with Neve Campbell out of it or something... Dont think ide care to see her back.... Actually ide like to to be a bit of a new cast but not so much as it would be in a straight to video film, maybe have some newer actors we havent seen alot out of.

[Ana-Matronic]

Yes, let's make Scream 4 like I Know What You Did 3. It has to be a continuing story, Sidney isn't needed but I think Neve should have at least have a hint of respect for the role that made her quite famous by at least dying in the beginning. I would love to see Gale be the main character being hunted or something. Maybe Gale and Dewey have a family and they are being stalked by some crazy obsessed fan. I just think if they find some innovative writer who can keep it the same ideas but with a new element to it. The whole story with new people is just people having a lack of faith in creativity, yea there is a lot of shit out there (Scream 3 included) but I have faith, and if it's bad we still have Scream 1 and 2, a new film isn't strong enough to damage it's predecessors.

Very well said! Having Gale be the main character would be tight, sounds like a good idea to me... Ide rather not have Neve back and have it just like parts 1, 2 , and 3... Her being hunted, then she turns into Ms tuff bitch and kills the killer... Die already Sidney!!!!!

Not another one.I guess its too early for them to do a remake of the original and too soon for them to make a prequel so were gonna get a hunk of shit 4th film and this time it'll be Roseanne as the killer instead of her sister.Keep it as a trilogy already.:drool:

[benluvin]

I don't think Scream can really be made easily. And I really don't see how a prequel could work, at least with the scream costume itself. I guess they could show Sid's mom getting killed, but they would need to use the same actors, and they just look too old now.

Well aren't you an optimistic one!?!?!

I think anything could be done well if they actually put forth effort to make it well. Scream is a lot more complicated in terms of story than your Friday The 13th sequel or such. You need to be careful with the characters and not just make them cardboard cutouts set up in a line just to die.

Wes Craven considering Scream 4
Date : February 25, 2007 Posted By : Clint Morris

I’d love to see how many zeroes were on the end of the number that the Weinstein’s just showed Wes Craven, because from the sounds of it he’s considering doing a movie he essentially previously ruled out for life: “Scream 4”.

The horror legend told Bloody Disgusting that he has been contacted about returning to helm a fourth film in the popular horcom (that’s horror/comedy) series.

"Actually, I received a call about that for the first time the other day... obviously, I've been asked about that for a long, long time... I think that it's not completely off the table at this point, as far as the studio making it. I was asked if I'd be interested, but I said it would depend on the script. [Scream 4] isn't something that's around the corner or anything, they are now thinking about it."

Neve Campbell, who played heroine Sidney Prescott in the first three movies, is also believed to be in talks – but so far, they’ve had no luck twisting her arm.

To hear what "Scream" series editor Patrick Lussier says about a fourth instalment, read our Ask a Celeb feature with him.

I think that it's not completely off the table at this point, as far as the studio making it. I was asked if I'd be interested, but I said it would depend on the script. [Scream 4] isn't something that's around the corner or anything, they are now thinking about it."

Neve Campbell, who played heroine Sidney Prescott in the first three movies, is also believed to be in talks – but so far, they’ve had no luck twisting her arm.

Great to see that, thanks for posting. Like I said, would like to see another, but only if it is done right. Maybe have one hell of a twist at the end with the killer or something.

If there was one, I'd like to see Gale be th killer. Maybe its kind of expected but all the signs would be there. Especially with Ronan. He is a director (he made that very clear with the line "I'm a director Sid....I direct") but a director is nothing without a writer, cue Gale Weathers trying to write the news...
I dont know just my brain mumbleing.

Great idea buddy, I hadnt thought about that. That would be totally unexpecting, Gale being the killer, and a pretty cool idea.... Hell I wish they would do that!

They should make Gale and Dooey be the killers, since there always having to help Sid out. They just get tired of it and off her once and for all. I think she should of died at the end of the third one anyway.

Well, we never find out who wrote the script for Stab 3. And It was written a couple of different ways; in one she dies, and in another shes the killer (both to avoid suspicion). She gave Roman the perfect opportunity to get his revenge on Sidney by presenting him with the Stab 3 script. All she wanted was her story.

Yep! I for one think it would be good and unexpected to come back for one, ( and maybe not a bad idea for it to be the final ) sequel, and have Gale and Dooey the killers... Ide like to see 4 and 5 and 6 made, but only if it didnt turn to shit. To me, really, 4 is enough, but hell, why not throw in more than 4 or 5?

A part of me doesn't want to see a Scream 4 because it was always intended to be a trilogy. However, I feel that that all got botched up when Kevin Williamson's treatment was booted out because the studio couldn't wait a few more months for the media's attack on horror movies due to Columbine to subside a little. Now we're stuck with a VERY lackluster 3 act that does not pay off in the way that we were led to believe it would.

Though, I think it was the studio's nosing into Scream 2 that really started the mess. If Williamson and Wes Craven had been left alone to make their trilogy, we wouldn't NEED a 4th movie to satisfy us. We'd already feel like we got a solid series.

So how was the 3rd really intended to be?

[bogey-chaser]

Well, IIRC it was supposed to involve going back to a high school setting - sort of a full circle thing. Of course, with Columbine...yeah. Horror in high school. That was stopped. Then there was the concept that the third movie would have poked fun at all the Scream clones. And, to me, that would have worked for this reason. Scream 1 poked fun at the horror movies of the past, Scream 2 poked fun at Scream - it only made sense to bring that full circle, too, and poke fun at IKWYDLS (though I loved it) and Urban Legend and pretty much every other movie that came out in the late 90s. I just remember reading interviews with Williamson and he kept talking about how it might be like the Godfather 2 - going back into the past and revealing things that gave more gravity to what was happening.

And, of course, there was the idea that Sydney would have died at the end of 2, but the studio would have NONE of that.

[bogey-chaser]

I just remember that a 15 page treatment was supposedly written by Williamson and it was scrapped. Man, I wish I could find that...
