Scream itself was fine. i never saw the sequals, and quite frankly, havent been all thatyinterested in them. Youcant blame the movie for inspiring a bunch of undcreative knock-offs, that blame reasts on the shoulders of the mindless fucktards that insist on rehashing popular ideas rather than trying to actually work on making a new one (risky and not nearly as profitable).

Keep in mind, the scream sequals and IKWYDLS (shit, even as an acronym that title is too fucking long.....) were geared toward the "mainstream" audiences. They want little teeny-boppers who like Brittany because she is "so real", and like Jennifer love hewitt because she is "pretty and talented". On the same note, they want these little airheads' brothers to sort wood over Rose mcgowan and JLH when they bounce up and down in tight shirts.

Give the people what they want. Okay, not the people, but the lowest common denominator.

"Hmmm... get rid of the plot. it makes people think, and they want to be entertained. make it revenge, or something, no one will care. Who is popular on tv these days? okay, does he have abs and a cute butt? Cool, cast him. Does she have perky tits? Cute face? cool, cast her too. What, they cant act? Who cares, people will be so busy watching them run around in the rain or it tight clothes they wont notice. Hit them in their hormones."
