 What is going on guys welcome back to the channel critical overlord here in this beat I'm gonna just be talking about Jason Blum and Blumhouse wanting to bring back the screen franchise So last year I think this came this is when the first talks started about this idea. They even said they wanted to bring back I know what you did last summer or do a reboot of I know what you did last summer Recently they Jason Blum had an interview and he said a bit more. He said That's something they've looked into but nothing's happening at the moment That's not what I want to talk about. I want to talk about the idea of them bringing it back And what could potentially be done if they did eventually get a hold of the screen property I would like them to do screen 5 and just have that be a sequel to screen 4 It doesn't have to be set a full eight years later. Of course, you could always do that It could be set like one or two years later Possibly three five it doesn't have to be the full eight because it's been eight years since screen four came out You you don't you don't have to do another large time gap like you have but screen three and screen four You don't have to do that. You know, you could always just set this movie a few years later I would like screen five to bring back Nev Campbell David Arquette Courtney Cox Wrapped the series up Don't do what you did with halloween. Of course, that's always an option I think that's that's what the reports make it seem like they want to do But that's that's nothing nothing concrete has been given as to what they all we know is that they have interest in getting More entries in that film franchise. They want to do screen movies That could be a plethora of things that could be a screen five that could be remaking the first movie that could be Ignoring some films and being a sequel to a certain movie It could ignore screen four and basically Do its own thing and still be screen five, but it's ignoring screen four. I don't know Something of that sort. I don't think the I don't think remaking it would be anything To uh, I don't think remaking it would be the best idea because unlike the halloween series screen is more consistent It has more consistent narrative being told in it It's more consistent than a lot of the other horror franchises That came around the 70s in the 80s and whatnot Uh, you have the same cast for the most part in each movie. You had the same writer for the most part for each movie You had the same director for the most part with each movie uh Just something should be left untouched and I even think they had the same musical composer for Pretty much every sequel. I think marco beltrami composed a lot Composed all four sequels if I'm if I'm not mistaken if I am please correct me But scream is definitely one of the more consistent horror franchises that will come out in the last decade or so So if blumhouse gets their hands on the property, I would like for them to do screen five brain back courtney cox nev cambell david arquette Set the movie a few years after screen four Sydney press goddess back in the turmoil again. She has another ghostface killer chasing her down We could explore a few more things that we didn't find out in the original trilogy because if you recall screen four Was supposed to be the beginning of a new trilogy that of course did not happen because once west craven died in 2015 Uh plans of doing anything else with the series were basically put on hold and we haven't heard anything since sydney prescott or nev cambell the actors who play sydney prescott She is gone on record saying that she doesn't think it could work without west On multiple occasions david arquette who plays dewey in the film He has stated that he would of all he would be down to do a fifth movie if it ever got confirmed So we know his involvement is something that he would like We know this is something that david arquette would like to be involved in I think the tricky part is going to be convincing Neve camber to come back convincing kevin williamson to come back because kevin williamson if i'm not mistaken is the one who said that Craven's death is what affected anything further moving Ahead with the series because i don't think anyone wants to actually touch this series Without his involvement because he was such a crucial Component to the series because he directed all four films And i think it's just more of a respect thing not because you could always I think they are well aware that they could continue without him What is more so a respect thing because he The series the series is mostly scream and uh nightmare and elm street are like his His two most well recognized film series west craven gets recognized the most for a nightmare and elm street and scream because He kind of his the way he directed those movies is what made them what they were And i feel like everyone involved with the movie feels that if they were to step away from that And do a movie without him there they would be shaming his legacy or showing disrespect to him Uh when really how you can look at it because this is what david arkett said screen five or whatever the movie is could just be A tipping of the hat something that could be done in his memory To show that while you're not here with us We still wanted to finish the series and we hope that we did it the way you And we hope we did it in the way that makes you proud of what you started and now we have finished What you started all those years ago. I think screen five should end the series It shouldn't be a case where you even scream six could always happen. Yes Because if you recall scream three was supposed to be the end all be all back in 2000 scream three was supposed to end the series If we do a screen five, I feel like that should be the last movie in the series This doesn't need to be a case where we're bringing ghost face back. It's time to Have newer newer faces coming to the horizon It's fine to have these revisiting's every now and then and I know screen five and screen six We're supposed to come out a long time ago along with screen four But if they do end up getting their hands on this property I think the best thing to do would just do screen five in the series bring back the original three Do it right do something in respect to west craven's legacy Respect the narrative that was already being told don't try to retell anything Just do something that would live up to what you know He would expect of the screen franchise keep the self-awareness of the characters keep that cleverness Bring back some terror because screen four. I think that's what we're screen four was acting screen four was acting in the terror department Nothing really too suspenseful there. I still think the scariest the scariest entry in the screen franchise still to this day is the original one The original film balanced horror comedy suspense everything so well And then scream two did a fine job with the screen three was going off of the rails a bit screen four went off the rails a bit So I think we need to get back to grounding the horror in the comedy and mixing them well together because Scream at the end of the day is not a horror comedy series It's a series that has comedic elements in it because of the situation the characters find themselves in So I would like to see screen five done in a way that will respect west craven's legacy brings back the original trio Get west get Kevin Williamson back to write the script and in the series write send it off on a high note Have the film being west craven's memory and just call it a day Those are my thoughts on Blumhouse doing screen movies If you agree with this or if you don't want to see any more screen movies Let me know down in the comment section below if you enjoyed this video make sure you give it a thumbs up If you haven't already subscribed and turn on post notifications, so you never miss a video in the description I'll have links to all my social media accounts on my facebook twitter and instagram You can message me there to let me know what movies news or reviews you would like me to cover in the future With all that in mind guys.
