Scream 6 did even better in box office that the previous three movies. Those boycotting campaigns NEVER work. I would say that there is quite a bit of a difference between boycotting because of an actor's pay or boycotting because of a genocide, but whatever. Like, whether the boycott works or not, wouldn't a decent person STILL boycott them? Sure, you can possibly say "But what about boycotting X? What about Y?" but boycotting a film studio is way easier than, idk, a food or tech conglomerate, while living under capitalism, and that is a fact. And isn't doing *something* better than doing nothing? Edited March 25 by Pennywise So long ggd, it was nice while it lasted. 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just saying those 'boycott X or Y' campaigns on Twitter never concretely work especially in entertainment mainly because those are nerd / stan communities stuff. Most people who are going to theater watching movies are not even caring a bit of production stuff and drama. Scream 7 will do very good, no doubt of this..

At this point boycotting everyone/thing pro Israel would be impossible. Almost every major studio and hundreds of actors side with Israel. So, yeah. I’ll spend $13 seeing this a year and a half from now… Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnWayne92 2,109 Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Scream has been a Neve Campbell thing for nearly 30 years - I do not agree with Melissa being fired, and I hate that the story is going to be halted for that, but everyone said the same thing when Sidney didn’t return for 6 - like someone stated above, 6 did the biggest box office. despite the unfairness of it all, Screams originals returning and it being directed by Kevin Williamson (the OG writer) is going to be something special. I would dare to say they are going to bring the cult of Ghostface front and center - it’s been hinted at since 5 and was Kevin’s original idea for 3. I bet Hayden and Patrick will be announced next (if Hayden is announced - Gale is dead) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's going to be used as a litmus test on how far their power can go without backlash. No one is forcing you to boycott, but don't try to pretend this is the same as not eating at a certain fast food place. That $13 a year and a half from now matters. Giving them your money after their overreach is effectively crossing the picket line of a company being protested for mistreatment of employees. Like you have other options, girl. Ones that save money and a trip to the cinema. 👀 Edited March 25 by Roughhouse Dandy This is my Hannah Montana™️ lipgloss. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
