Just watched Scream VI and I loved it!
I’m not gonna talk about everything, I just wanted to write my thought process for significant moments.
When Bailey told Sam that Kirby hadn’t worked at the FBI for months, I was like, “Oh shit, maybe Kirby really is ghostface”.
Because everytime I saw a fan theory of Kirby being the killer, I immediately dismissed them. It would make literal ZERO sense for Kirby to be the killer, because she would literally have no logical motive.
But as soon as I saw the double ghostface attack on Chad, along with the in sync knife swipe, I was kind of hoping it would be Stu AND Kirby. The brief moment between Kirby and Mindy, mentioning Stu’s supposed death really made me hope Matthew Lillard had returned.
Again, it made no sense for Kirby to be the killer, but I was really starting to hope it was her. What we got in the end was good too though.
Also really glad you could actually trust the love interest in this film, “Cute guy” is so nice together with Sam. She deserves a sane boyfriend.
Chad and Tara are suuuuuuper cute together. I’ve seen some comments about the trailer, talking about Chad and Tara possibly getting together where they didn’t like it. I think I saw some talking about how Tara and Wes should’ve gotten together. But I love them together, so glad he lived.
When I first watched scream (2022), I was able to guess the ghostfaces correctly. (Amber and Richie’s ‘first’ meeting in the hospital made it super obvious). I never guessed Quinn cause she was ‘dead’. Everyone making Ethan out to be the killer was so funny, I never really thought of him actually being the killer. I was sort of suspicious of Bailey though. When he was crying about Quinn in the alley way, I kinda thought it was an underreaction. I mean, both of your kids are dead. My thoughts during this scene were, “What if he’s just pretending?”
Also, while Bailey, Ethan and Quinn were doing their monologue, the majority of the time I was thinking, “Would this count as three ghostfaces or two?”
Logically, it’d only be two, because Ethan and Quinn actually did the killings and were wearing the costumes.
Quick edit: Really glad they mentioned all the ghostfaces. Especially when Kirby was looking at Jill’s outfit.
People have been commenting about the Squid Game glass panels game, saying stuff like;
“Why don’t they just jump on the beam?”
“If I was there, I’d use the beam”
Yes, I can see how people can think landing on the beam would be a solution, but theres a few things I don’t think people take into consideration. The bridge was made like this:
l⬜️| |⬜️|
With two beams supporting each side of the bridge, giving a rather medium gap in the middle. I was watching Matpats theory (which alot of it did not make any sense btw) and he said something about landing on the beams of both panels with your feet split. Like this;
/\ <- legs
|⬜️| |⬜️|
Its a pretty shitty way to explain but stick with me here. Now it’s not the size of the bars that we need to consider here, it’s the size of the jump you need to make it to the next two panels. The gap is big, bigger then the distance of the bars. Now jumping that distance, landing with your bare feet on the edge without leaning to heavily on one side when you land is highly unlikely.
Throwing yourself at that distance and landing in a position that will make you lose your off balance is mostly likely going to throw you off your feet, between the glass panels infront of you and to your demise. It’s like jumping on stepping stones in high heels, there’s no way your going to land steadily. There’s also the fact you can’t wear your shoes, which will put pressure on your feet, considering you have to be careful of the weight you put on each side. That will mean you have to land with your feet in the exact same position when you jump the gap.
Which again, highly unlikely. Edit: Also, shuffling is most likely not going to work either. The glass panels are ontop of the beam, meaning you would have to land on the first two glass panels, shuffle across and then crawl your feet back onto the second ones. But you would have to have amazing balancing skills and feet made of steel to do that.
Headcanon that if Ben,Sarah,Duck and Clementine lived. I headcanon that Ben would get writing burnt onto his back (Like Clementine with AJ on her wrist). It would be kids on one side and their guardians who he promised to look after. (Carlos, Kenny, Lee, Alvin and Rebecca). Of course it would burn like hell but Ben would fight through it, since he’s been wanting to do it since it was just Kenny and the kids.
I’m re-watching TWDG final season, y’know, watching other lets players choices and reactions. In episode 1 where Louis, Violet, Aj and Clementine go to the train station to get the food from the floorboards, how does Abel get past Violet? Cause Violet waits outside whilst Aj and Clem get the food.
The only logical idea I had was that Abel threatens Violet with his gun into letting him into the train station. But if you don’t attack Abel and let him take the food, Violet runs in and says they’re running out of time and that they need to leave but trails off when she sees Abel, meaning she did NOT see him before.
It’s possible that some walkers got bored of watching Louis and wondered off and whilst Violet was dealing with them, Abel snuck past her. I don’t know.
Island continued...
Justin, 2/10 “Justin was eliminated early during the talent show and I can’t really say anything about it. I don’t get the whole girls drooling over him bit. Plus he rarely had any lines.”
Katie, 2/10 “EEEEEEE! I like Katie, but I wasn’t upset when she got booted.”
Sadie, 2/10 “Same as Katie; liked her, but wasn’t sad she left.”
Trent, 7/10 “I really like Trent. I think he was one of my favourite characters growing up, but I really hated what happened to him later on. I noticed that he tended to get injured a lot in challenges. I think he’s one of the competitors to have been in the infirmary the most. I like him and Gwen, not a huge fan, but I didn’t dislike any of their scenes together.”
Tyler, 5/10 “Tyler wasn’t on the island long, but I really found him funny. His relationship with Lindsay is really cute and I wish he stayed a little longer in the show. His last episode is so sad, they were just making fun of him the entire time. :( “
Noah, 5/10 “Noah got eliminated cause he was a little nerd and didn’t participate in sports, and I can relate. Island definitely wasn’t his best season, but I enjoyed his sarcasm.”
Leshawna, 10/10 “The Queen. She was fucking awesome this season. Her going face to face with a bear on the rolling log was definitely awesome. I don’t know what I thought about her kiss with Harold when I first watched, but after rewatching the episode like 5 minutes ago, I have to say I don’t really care tbh. She was absolutely robbed, she did not deserve to go home that way.”
Owen, 100/10 “How can anyone not love Owen? I’ve seen people dislike Owen because they considered him gross, but that’s literally the entire show. Most episodes include something gross. Everyone of Owen’s scenes were incredibly funny, especially watching him snipe Heather in the back with a marshmallow. He definitely deserved the win.”
Doing all the characters in action next :)
Headcanon where James (season 4) and Alex Fairbanks are brothers. In this au, James is not as pacifistic, only resorting to killing walkers to defend himself and Alex. Alex is 15 in this and James is 20 since this sets scene in season 4 and Alex was 7 in the Michonne game, and it’s been about 8 years since in the final season it says Clementine’s 16-17. James and Alex have been wandering for years, using their skills they learnt from the whisperers to move around herds. Alex doesn’t like using the mask a lot and likes to take breaks every now and then to at least eat. Instead of calling them walkers, Alex refers to them as Wendigos. James wasn’t as close to his Grandmother, so he was never told about Wendigos. Similar to Aasim, Alex has written alot of what has happened through out his life, and how much he looks up to James. When they meet Clementine and Aj, and she offers them to stay, Alex gets the biggest smile he’s had in years. Finally, they don’t have to keep walking, they can settle down, just like James said, with people they can trust. James isn’t that trustworthy, but agrees, to make Alex happy.
While looking for a good photo of Jean from 400 days to draw (which was a struggle), I came across a reddit post about a character named Asha which was scrapped from the Final Season. And I was like WHAT! I had no idea this was a thing, the character design of her was a little weird cause it shows her with Season 1 Clementine and there’s a sketch which looks like she’s arguing with an older Gabe. Apparently there was nothing in past scripts that actually included Asha which is a shame. There’s also this other character that was scrapped, Jill who was also scrapped from the Final Season. The only thing I really found about Jill is she’s described as a wanderer and Clementine would of met her during the old Final Season.
I’m sure there are alot of scrapped characters but these are the first two I’ve actually found. Would you include Sandra in scrapped characters? As she was going to be added into flashbacks of Season 3 but was replaced by back story of the Garcias, which still pisses me off. I really didn’t care for any of those flashbacks. I’ll make a seperate post of me ranting on about how Sandra should’ve been added into flashbacks of Season 3, if I remember.
:) idk
The way it felt like someone who had never seen the show wrote this season????
The characters were AWFUL and were almost entirely new characters with all their previous character development forgotten.
Allison - Honestly, I don't like Allison (after watching THAT scene w Luther), so I really didn't care what happened with her this season. I think it does suck that she wasn't able to be happy with Ray, they were nice together. Also, no rumours? Her power was one of the most interesting out of the family.
Luther - People were commenting about how childish and positive he was being this season and how it was out of character from him being so serious. Honestly? I love silly Luther, he's such a breath of fresh air. I also like to believe that because Luther was assigned the leader of the family (being number 1 and all), he's able to enjoy himself without that pressure. Also, I also love to believe that Luther is using being positive and silly as a coping mechanism as to not be overwhelmed by the sadness of losing Sloane and also his current living situation. Giving him his gorilla body back was so unnecessary and makes no sense cause it wasn't the marigold that gave him the body.
Ben - He sucked. I hate that Sparrow Ben was the one that was dragged with them because it meant that we had to deal with him sulking and being angsty the whole time. Also, the character development we witnessed 1-2 just disappeared instantly cause of Sparrow Ben. Also, his friendship with Klaus was the best thing in the show and I hate that we never get to see that in season 3.
Klaus - I was actually so happy for him being sober, even if he wasn't living the best life because of his paranoia with death and germs. So it really sucked when that immediately went down the drain the second his body got the marigold.
Diego - He deserved better. Yeah, his constant complaining about his "belly" (which wasn't even that big of a difference??) and wanting to go back to his old super spy life did affect his and Lila's marriage, but when he realised that he immediately accepted that he was at fault and was willing to improve their marriage to make Lila happy.
Lila - I liked Lila before season 4. I don't know what they were thinking honestly by changing her entire character. Yes, she and Five were stuck for 7 years together, but seriously? That plot added NOTHING to the story because in the end, Lila chose Diego and then they all DIED like 10 minutes later!!
Viktor - Honestly? Viktor didn't really stand out this season for me. Sure, he got kidnapped by Ian Hawk. I thought the idea of him trying to remove the marigold from Ben was a really cool idea but then it just didn't happen. I thought his interactions with Reginald were decent, since it's interesting to see how this Reginald thinks about Viktor compared to the original timeline Reginald.
Five - It's honestly kind of impressive how the writers were able to make the best character in the show the worst character by the end of it. They completely changed his whole character. First, his personality is duller than a door nail. He's so emotionless and so boring. Where's the excessive facial expressions and movements? Second, changing his motivations. For the past 3 seasons we have watched him with one goal in his mind; "Save the world and his siblings". So why would Five ever possibly consider both giving that up for Lila of all people. Third, giving Five a love interest was so useless and lazy. Why would he choose a girl over his siblings? Especially one literally MARRIED to his BROTHER. Fourth, him being all pouty and jealous over Lila choosing Diego (her husband and father of her kids - no shit she was gonna pick him over Five, literally have no idea why Five even thought he had a chance) to the point where he plans to just ditch his family in the middle of a big fight. Five, him fighting Diego in the middle of said big fight. THEN, Five just gives up??? Yeah, that's probably all he could do but seriously, this is Five we're talking about, the guy who survived in 45 years in the apocalypse to try and get back to his family and save the world. Do you really believe that he would just give up?
BONUS:
Jennifer - They could introduce a new character/love interest for Ben but they didn't do the same for Five so they just gave him the only other woman who wasn't his sister???? LAZY. Also, the amount of plot holes with Jennifer's character makes me queasy.
