 Going on guys welcome back to the channel critical overlord here So some big news came out last night like around close to midnight Bloody disgusting reportedly has an exclusive update on the status of the next screen film now in the past I have done a video on Screen 5 or the potential shot of a screen 5 happening Back then everyone was under the impression that Blumhouse was gonna potentially do it I don't think that was ever anything actually came nothing actually came out saying that Other than Jason Blum saying that Blumhouse would be interested But last night bloody disgusting reported that I'll just pull up the I pull up the snippet from the from the article Bloody disgusting can exclusively exclusively report that Gary Barber spyglass media group is currently developing the next screen Based on the franchise created by Craven and writer Kevin Williamson Now so Again, West Craven. He's he's no longer with us anymore. Sadly, so he would not be involved in this And from what I'm seeing here It's unclear whether the next film will continue to be canonized within Craven's universe or whether it would be a remake But we are here. We are hearing it as of this writing Williamson is not writing the screenplay now. I'm gonna stop and talk about that right there So off the bat, that's a disadvantage if you're not gonna have what's Craven That's that's already a strike against you now. You don't have Kevin Williamson. That's strike two strike three would then be having No, Neve Campbell having no David Arquette having no Courtney Cox You're just gonna be striking out on all angles if you go ahead and they have they're already on two strikes So it seems like it's not confirmed that Kevin Williamson isn't writing it because again This is very early development on this project and it's gonna be from others the sky spy or sky glass media I believe they were a company way back when they haven't done anything since 2012 and now all of a sudden They've been resurrected But scream is a very very very special series to me screaming is actually my favorite horror movie. I love all those movies I think scream 3 is I wouldn't say scream 3 is the best but scream 3 is like my favorite out of all four of them It's kind of like a difficult situation here I say scream the original is my favorite horror movie out of any horror movie, but within the series I would say scream 3 is my favorite Not to say the scream 3 is a good movie by any means. I don't think it's as bad as people make it out to be it's decent But it's the lesser of the four movies, but moving on to the what I'm the actual point of this video Not having West Craven. That's a big. That's a big factor not and then if what Kevin Williamson isn't here That's another big factor because he He he and Craven they made this series what it was they they brought it to life Scream was very crucial when it came out in the mid 90s. It came out at a time where horror was kind of dead and then it kind of Put new blood into that genre and then you started seeing movies imitating scream It was just a whole new type of take on the genre is very meta very self-aware very smart clever It recognized these horror movie tropes and tried to avoid them of course in the sequels It's kind of just becoming a it's kind of living in the shadow of what it was trying to do But the movies are all still very enjoyable. They're all still very well-made all still very smart and clever Also with a dose of comedy that never stays Adolescent comedy never feels like it's overstated to welcome except within scream 3 and a few bit parts screen 3 actually It's kind of like a Scooby-Doo episode But anyway with this new project, I'm hoping this is screen 5 if it's not screen 5 I really do not have an interest in seeing this I'll I won't even follow the project Actually, I will I'll follow the project but just just for you guys But I won't even I won't even probably have an interest in going to see it in theaters And then hopefully by the time a trailer comes out Maybe that'll spark my interest in to go in and see it in a fierce bath of this as of right now I'm hoping that Nev Campbell comes back. I'm hoping that David Arquette comes back I'm hoping that Courtney Cox comes back and I'm hoping that Kevin Williamson somehow comes back whether regardless of his writing or not Bring him back to be an exact executive producer do something Somebody who was involved with the original films who was under craving they need to be here because I don't think it's gonna work without him And then also if you're not gonna have somebody who was under craving You're taking a big risk then by now making a screen 5 and then not having anything to do with anyone from that team Because it's gonna be a very different feel it's gonna be a very different vibe not to say that you can't get a talented director There's a very there's several talented horror directors out there today But it's not gonna have the same feel because it's not gonna be from craving It's not gonna be from Kevin Williamson. It's gonna be from someone else Someone else who might have a track record of putting out hit films But for a screen movie to have such a different vibe to it now after four movies from the two same From the same two minds back to back like that minus Kevin Williamson stepping down for screen three That's gonna be hard to do and it's gonna be hard to satisfy fans Whether or not they actually bring someone in who was involved with craving. That's yet to be seen I hope they do but even regardless of that that's not to say that they can't make a good screen And then the other thing that I think they might do as a reboot. I don't think they need to do that at all That's me personally. I don't think they need to do that. What needs to be done If you really want to get this talk of a reboot going I already have like an idea for it In the movie screen five, which is what I think this should be They have in the screen series in general. There's a there's a series of films based on the events It's a movie within a movie series. It's called stab in screen five The killings could be sparked by a reboot of the movie within the movie Screen five can still be a sequel, but it's sparked by the announcement in that universe of a reboot of stab That's what they could do I really see that that could be something that several people who are fans of this series would eat up Don't make that will film a reboot have the film be a sequel and Make a reboot in that movie of the movie in that movie I know that's a lot to take in but there is a movie series in the screen universe called stab and is based on the events that we're watching It's called stab Have the screen five revolve around But have had it revolve around a stab reboot occurring at the time of events of a screen five and the killer is The killer and the killings begin when the screen or the stab reboot comes out or something of that nature There's several things they can do. There's no reason to retell or restart this story It's just not going to I feel like everyone still wants to see something from From Sydney Gale and Dewey. There's just still one more thing that I feel that they could do here They don't need to do it. We already have four movies with them And maybe it's better if they don't touch that property because if you're not gonna have someone who was with Craven, you're gonna be hurting a lot of fans. You're gonna be hurting a Sacred piece of film or a sacred piece of Cinema and I don't want to see that happen with this project I want them to be able to do something that lives up to Craven's legacy and hopefully he can be proud of it Something that he would be proud of I don't I don't really know I do have an idea of who the killer would be in a screen five Maybe we find out that Sydney had a child from her Encounter with Billy Lumens all those years ago And she gave it up for adoption because there's a two-year gap between the original and the second film Maybe Sydney did have a secret child. Maybe that secret child is now grown up in back and they They specifically waited till the release of this stab reboot to start the killings again And maybe bring in someone from Billy Lumens's family again Maybe someone from Billy Lumens's side of the family His father's side of the family found and located him and they've been Working together to get back at Sydney Prescott for the murder of Billy Lumens and then just for leaving the child and giving it up For adoption not wanting anything to do with the child There's several things a screen five could do you do not need to restart this series Let me know what you guys think about this down in the comment section below If you haven't already make sure you subscribe to turn on post notifications So you never miss a video in the description I'll have links on my social media accounts on my Facebook Twitter and Instagram You can message me there to let me know if there's any movies news or reviews You would like me to cover in the future with all that in mind guys.
