 What is going on guys welcome back to the channel critical overlord here? So just some brief news that came out yesterday or actually the day before your stay on Sunday On July 31st actually this came out on July 31st This is a tweet in reference to the upcoming screen five movie. We know we're getting Basically what has happened is this project has gotten yet another stamp of approval. The script has anyway fans of happy death day Will Certainly love this if you're a fan of both scream and happy death day This will make you even more excited for screen five Christopher Landon the writer for happy death day or the director I believe for right for happy death day has come out and stated that the script for screen screen five is Is good? So that's all he had to say now the reason I wanted to talk about this is because Christopher Landon at one point time last year he there was news coming out around the same time that rumors started started up about screen five News came out that he was working on a new a new movie and everyone was under the impression that Christopher Landon was working on Screen five because of the rumors coming out and because of Blumhouse making making Jason Blum commenting on the fact that he'd love to Do some movies for that franchise and then Christopher Landon having associations with Jason Blum And we know he's done happy death day and happy death day to you So then when news and rumblings came out that he was working on a new project Everyone thought that he was gonna be the one to bring us this new screen movie now that of course is not the case We know we're getting screen five from Matt Benelli and Tyler Gillett who brought us ready or not the radio silence team Spyglass media is involved paramount picture will be distributing it We have Courtney Cox officially on board to prize prize her role as Gail Weathers now We have David Arquette back to play Dewey Riley We're still waiting to hear if Neve Campbell will return or not But of course that's gonna be coming in the few weeks or so as we now have official Twitter accounts and an official Instagram account For this upcoming project that is looking to start shooting this October out in Wilmington, North Carolina So what I want to say about this is this is yet Yes, just yet another person who has come out about this project and they've stated that the script is good Or they've stated something that Kevin Williamson had to say that what they've written honors West's legacy and the directors themselves and Everyone involved with the project just coming out and giving all these stamp of approvals about it Neve Campbell mentioning that she was in she was impressed or had had some liking to what was being offered to her what the Directors had to had come to her with with the narrative of screen 5 So Honestly knowing that all of them are getting back in back involved. There's there's something here that's that's gonna Has the potential to be great That's my honest opinion something here has the potential to be great, but keep in mind While the script might be good one thing we need to remember when it comes comes to filmmaking when you have a good script you can have the best script there is but your movie could be executed horribly and Perfect example of that would be Not not a perfect example, but let's let's just talk about Jeepers Creepers really quick Jeepers Creepers original script has a far better ending in my opinion when we actually got But we did not get that due to budget budget restrictions There's a few other things in that original script that we do not have in the movie itself that Some some tiny things that just the tiniest things might have made the movie slightly better So there's always a chance that whatever this script is that Christopher Landon read It might not even be the actual draft that we get that gets shot Unless he knows that this is the draft that gets shot because what could happen is we were already speculating that they've prepared for this given that Scream has faced so many leaks in the past with its other entries and other sequels that the team behind screen 5 Presumably if they were smart they took all the necessary precautions that includes possibly Using a draft for auditions that includes names that will not actually be appearing in the film to conceal the identity of the actual characters in case of elite So that's where this idea that Sarah might not be Sarah is actually Kirby comes from There's several different things that could be going on here. The script might be great But we might get an absolute trash executed depiction of this script just like how with screen for screen for a script It reads better than actually how it plays out. That's my honest opinion about screen for screen for is a very solid movie a Massive improvement from the third entry But the way it plays out and the if you read the script and the way you would envision in your head me personally It I envision it in my head much differently and I get a much better film than what we actually got It was done fine for what it was But anytime you read a script, of course, you're gonna sit there and say it's you might sit there and say It's good afterwards Especially if you have characters that are you're hooked on and you're invested in and you want to Spend more time with getting to know When you're reading scripts, you have all the time in the world to just sit around and come up Let your imagination run wild and put all these things in your head as you're taking these words That you're reading and then you can create the movie in your head So at the end of the day, of course, if you have a script that's written very well And you've been able to create the images of what it would look like on screen in your head I turn around and say it was a good script, too Like I but like I'm saying the script might be the best thing out there since the first movie But it could be executed very horribly. That's still always a possibility There's several movies that have gone through this several movies that have the amazing have this amazing concept with this Decent script that gets turned into this run down Like watered-down version of what it was intended to be what I will say is we all should remain very Positive about the project because of the fact that the Weinstein's are not involved and I know the Weinstein's Bob in particular They were very back-and-forth with Kevin Williamson very back-and-forth and what oh, we're not doing that We don't want to do this. We don't want to do that Oh, we can't do that change this change that all this other type of stuff So the fact that we don't have to worry about that anymore Makes this very exciting because what's gonna happen is we'll have a screen five film where The Weinstein's are not holding holding back. What's possible? We'll get to see a script finally executed to its full potential We won't hear things coming out during production Hopefully about all these on stage all these backstage issues with Kevin Williamson or all these other issues with the producers Jumping in and tweaking and wanting to do reshoots and changing the script halfway through production all this other type of stuff Someone walking out my production was just just played because of the Weinstein's and their constant constant attitude towards what was what was being Planned they always wanted to change something always wanted to change this they always wanted to change that It's like if you don't have any in Kevin Williamson I believe said this in the podcast if he was on if you don't have any trust in the people you're working with Why continue to work with them over and over again if you're just gonna keep doing this you're gonna keep telling them Oh, no, we don't need to do it that way. We're gonna do it this way. Oh, no, I don't like that We're not gonna do it that way. We're gonna do it this way. Oh change that rewrite that whole section We're not gonna film that like if you're you have a history of working with this person for Three different projects that are in the same franchise if you're gonna be doing this why continue to work with them Why continue to work at all that's why Kevin Williamson decided he wasn't gonna work with these guys anymore That's why he did not want to come back for screen five. That's that's exactly why that's another reason Why screen fighting screen five did not have it on top of screen for yes being lackluster at the box office Kevin Williamson didn't want to work with them anymore because of the debacle that was Screen for the production process for him was was hell He left that project to go focus on the vampire diaries and I don't blame him one bit Knowing what I know now and what he's saying went on behind behind the scenes. It's just ridiculous. Honestly But Christopher Landon did say that the script is good a good script to me means we have Sydney Prescott in a prominent role And when I say prominent a role that's still very Very effective very impactful another thing we need to keep in mind is Screen five could be taking the dream warriors approach nightmare in Elm Street 3 the dream warriors That's what everything is very reminiscent of to me We're getting a film in a franchise. That is a sequel not ignoring the previous entries But we're focusing on a new set of characters, but we're gonna bring in the old to be kind of like mentors That's very similar very reminiscent of nightmare in Elm Street 3 the dream warriors Let me know what you guys think about what Christopher Landon had to say down in the comment section below If you haven't already make sure you subscribe turn on post notifications I never miss a video in the description I 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 Also down in the comment section.
