 What's going on guys welcome back to the channel critical overload here So we'll be talking about a few different horror topics in this video here today We'll be talking about screen seven We'll be talking about the strangest three given update on that and why we don't have any news regarding it allegedly and also sharing some other Exciting tidbits that I discovered that I don't think many of you might be aware of without disclosing this video And we'll round it out by talking about saw X now the screen seven aspect of this is mostly gonna be a theory So we're gonna start off with the strangest three the strangest three still has no News on when it's gonna be officially released and I have some information on why according to is Tamara home net So shout out to you if you are listening and guys if you want any type of news regarding the status of the strangers Please just go to is tamara home net. I'll leave a link to their website down in the description They also have a Twitter page as well I believe but we know that the strangers trilogy that we're about to get one of them to start it off with is gonna be following a Character named Maya played by Madeline Petsch as she drives cross-country with her longtime boyfriend Ryan To begin a new life in the Pacific Northwest when their car breaks down in Venice, Oregon They're forced to spend a night in a secluded Airbnb where they are terrorized from dust till dawn by three mass strangers I also recently discovered that this film will be set in the same universe Despite it being described as a reboot of sorts And of course We know it's the first of a new trilogy that we can expect to hopefully be released sometime by Lionsgate next year I would imagine how I came across this was an interview from Emma Horvath who was also starring in the film She is the one who revealed that it set in the same universe So it's got to be either a loose prequel of sorts or it's a straightforward sequel That's not completely tied to those first two movies that we have but it's still set Afterwards so kind of like if you recall how Jeepers Creepers 2 is kind of a loose sequel to the first one It's not completely Following up from those from that first film It's all just set in the same universe and there's details along the way that you discover that lets you know Yes, this is the same world and of course It's a sequel without picking up and following the story of Trisha Jenner So that's what it seems like could be occurring with the Strangers 3 Madeline Pesh also hyped up us getting more of a backstory this time around as opposed to the original Trillie in an interview earlier this year with Collider She said according to according to her just to summarize She said we'll get more character development will get more answers more mystery etc So all of that sounds like a recipe for success, but execution is everything now According to this Tamara home a reputable source who I'm assuming is in contact with Lionsgate Told them that the film isn't dropping this month because it was supposed to come out in August according to a cast member It's not coming out this month as expected due to the ongoing strikes So I would imagine we're not gonna get the Strangers 3 until 2024 at the latest or at least I should say and then the subsequent sequels that have already been shot We'll get those sometime later this year I've even seen some of you guys suggested at this point Maybe they should drop them all at once on a streaming service somewhere But I have no idea if they even want this to be theatrical or not I would think if they wanted to be theatrical you are gonna get these released at different points in time across the next couple of years But we'll see Diving into scream 7 scream 7 could be taking place in a plethora of different locations How I'm imagining it though is that we could be going to Seattle now Why Seattle shout out to killjoy Jake for pointing this out because I completely Overlooked this like an idiot, but Sydney Prescott's location in the drafts for five and six seemed to highlight that she lives in Seattle So if we're getting Sydney again, I'm imagining a story that immediately demands her inclusion because she would be in the opening Or perhaps in a scene right after the opening where Ghostface invades her home Let's her know that these streets are these streets are dangerous and you're not safe protect your neck She immediately goes out of her way to defend her family afterwards because a child of hers could be abducted or something like that I mean the whole movie could be Sydney centric and placed in Seattle in Seattle, but time will tell Now of course Seattle isn't the only possible place. It could be it could be happening in Hollywood I just want to address the Seattle aspect because that is a good thing to speculate on since in two Two two times now from drafts from five and six although it's not mentioned in the movie Sydney is described as living in Seattle So Seattle could actually be where scream seven is set at either in bits and pieces because of the Sydney aspect of the movie Or the whole entire thing if they indeed decide to do a Sydney centric narrative now I will say if they decide to do a Sydney centric narrative I will not be completely opposed to it But I do think it could create some type of Halloween ends energy in me Meaning that it doesn't feel as cohesive now because you're shifting focus back to her And if you don't balance the story with Sam well mostly Sam Sam and Tara in the characters We've gotten to know in love from screen five and six I can see how some other people who really don't care about Sydney could feel some type of way But I digress jumping into the last topic here saw X saw X is Undoubtedly going to be a success with fans or die hard fans of the franchise and the general public Hopefully if it appeals to them since they do matter more than people care to admit However, during the mid-summer screen panel with Kevin Grootert and other people involved with the project There was a Q&A that had some interesting remarks from the director One of these questions was regarding Mark Hoffman Who we know is going to be present and return in the upcoming film Fans seemed to ask if we'll find out what happened to Hoffman after saw 3d to which Grootert said I'm not going to answer that. Well, naturally that's going to lead to speculation that Hoffman might be alive I mean, it's only reasonable to think that we know he's back since it's set in between one and two So he's not alive in that regard because it's taking place prior to his Alleged death and we get to hear cost us his voice in the trailer going of all the men to cheat You chose John Kramer. We've had this confirmed by some of the dubbing actors being back to portray his uh His lines I don't know anything about the plot But it's reasonable to think that perhaps the twist to the film ending could be us revealing Hoffman alive Although they did confirm that he was dead. I think previously on a home media commentary track for saw 3d But you can retcon as you please dr. Gordon also unfortunately Just another tip of the news He won't be making an appearance in saw x according to vink 360 and carry l was his comments of his very own Who flat out said he couldn't speak to it since he isn't involved anymore But that could be his way of keeping secrets when speaking to screen rant earlier this year He said I have no comment one way or another about that franchise. I really Can't speak to it I'm happy for the filmmakers that they continue to make money and that it seems to be a financial bonus for them I really can't speak to it because i'm not really involved anymore Now of course people are going to instantly think there's got to be some type of andrew garfield no way home scenario going on here But maybe he's serious. Maybe he's genuine. Maybe he's not going to be in it But of course, maybe he could be pumping smoke up our ass and he's going to return dr. Gordon could be back in some capacity I haven't heard any rumors about dr. Gordon the only person I've heard a rumor about that still hasn't become Official was that we could see john's wife return I can't remember her name as of right now, but that's the only rumor I have heard I haven't heard any real plot specifics as much as I've tried to gain stuff to find out how good this will end up being Because it does appear and from what I keep hearing from trusted insiders over on the saw subreddit It appears that this could end up being one of the better entries and even better than spiral Since I know a lot of people hated that entry, but let me know what you guys think about this down the comment section below If you haven't already course make sure you subscribe turn on post notifications like you never miss a video in the description I will have links to all my social media accounts.
