This shit on the Scream 4, by supposed Scream fans constantly slapping up Scream 3 is about to send me over the edge. It's horrible on the IMDb message board for Scream's next film, Scream 4. (This is not a classy post, but I DON'T CARE!)
Any time anything goes wrong (whether it be the first three films or Scream 4), it's Scream 3's fault, no matter if it's Scream 4's script, cinematography, acting, whatever! Users constantly trying to make flaws out of the third film and it is sad. Scary movies don't have to be gory to be scary. This isn't Saw, it's SCREAM! Even with the lack of blood, Scream 3 had more blood than 85% of slasher films of that era. That is the only "flaw" I can find and it doesn't really bother me that much.
The only reason people bash it is because Kevin Williamson's name isn't credited as the writer. If it was, no one would be bitching. And yes, we are talking about the perfect Kevin Williamson, the writer of Cursed, Teaching Mrs. Tingle, I Know What You Did Last Summer, and The Faculty; and let me not forget Dawson's Creek and The Vamprie Diaries!
I'm not saying everyone has to love it or even like it, or consider it the best or second best of the series because I understand everyone has their opnions, but people are acting like it's the root of evil. One user compared it to Hitler! HITLER! COME ON!
These people are turning me off from the series, and Scream consumes my life! I'm afraid I'm going to begin to not like the films anymore because of these stupid cunts! And now they have one 45 second comment from Wes (by the way thanks Wes) to use as their asset. I've been tryign to defend it as best I could, but enough is enough!
Psycho_JAK posted this once on the S3 board: Don't worry if people don't share your opinion. There's always going to be people who say you're stupid just because your opinion differs from theirs. They also might say your opinion is wrong, but an opinion can't be wrong. Anyway, I love all 3 Screams, but the 3rd is better than 2, IMO.
It's a fabulous quote, but it's not enough to have to go through this abuse from these fucking people! A movie website should not cause this much stress on my life. But IMDb doesn't care that this stuff's going on, unless if stuff like this happens on the big boards like "Oscar Buzz".
I'm lost and aggravated. I'm about to fucking explode!

Why Scream 3 Is The Best Of The Scream Saga:
. The complete second half of the film is literally flawless (post-Sidney comes out of hiding). The first 25 minutes are also pretty flawless, too, but not in the same park as the second half's brilliance. The only time it makes any mistakes is the 20 minute gap between Sarah Darling and Jennifer's house explosion <- it's not bad ...it's like 65% great, 35% flawed.
. The three intertwined storylines (Sidney's metal heath, Maureen Prescott's past, and Stab 3) makes for a very strong driven narrative.
. Has the strongest message of all four films (even though Scream 4's is very strong.) The message of the movie -> the first two asked the question are movies responsible for people killing? Most blame Hollywood for influencing the youth of America to be violent murders. The movies themselves don't, but the drama behind the scenes is enough to start a murdering bloodbath. Scream 3 shows us Sidney Prescott, a woman has lived through two killing sprees and has her life intertwined in this Hollywood drama. She, also, is in a bad mental state as a result. Yet, she is able to put the darkness aside from her past and move on with her life. You kill because you chose to...the movies, the people behind the movies, don't matter...it's your journey....you're decision.
. The role of Sidney was handled the best. Her scenes were crucial to her character development; there was no scene that felt like they edited in as a "filler" to get to the finale like the previous films.
. Scream 3 was the most emotional of the four.
. It was more brave than the first two and the fourth by having a male opening victim, let alone a recurring character who was the hero of the previous film.
. Neve Campbell's performance was flawless. The best acting I've ever seen.
. It was the funniest of the four without using the "spoof" to be funny.
. I think it’s the scariest of the four. Very thrilling, as much as terror (Blood doesn't matter...this is Scream not Saw).
. It was without a doubt the most surprising.
. I like the "adult society" plot it has compared to the first two and fourth who were about high school world and college life.
. It was the most plot heavy of the four, and I like plot; twists.
. The best climax/finale of the series. Brutal.
. Best production values: film editing, art direction, sound mixing, sound editing, visual effects, and the score! Scream 2 had slightly better cinematography and costume design.
. Contains the best supporting character in the entire series (excluding the trio in the earlier films), yes I'm talking to you Jennifer.
. The whole deja vu to Woodsboro and Sidney on the Stab 3 set was creepy and very effective. It goes back to the original and pulls out the unseen.
. Finds the equilibrium that 1, 2, and 4 couldn't find. It was terrifying, but you thoroughly enjoyed it.
.The killer had the best and most motivation to want Sidney dead out of the seven killers.
. The character development with the main three was a perfect epilogue. Wrapped up the story with loose ends being cut off while incorporating a little bit of "let the viewer decide." The new cast was different from the first sequel and the third sequel; in Scream 2 and Scream 4 the characters were so sketched out to be likeable with quirky personalities, it made them unlikeable. In Scream 3 they weren’t designed to be likeable; the audience was allowed to like new characters in Scream 3 on their own.
. The fact that it was original. This is more-so pointing to Scream 2, than the original even though in some ways the original was vastly similar to Halloween. Scream 4 was making fun of remakes so, I'm not sure if I can fault it for homaging the first three in every scene. The clever plot with the Stab 3 cast being offed as they are in the script; life imitating art.
