The hate for the Scream 7 trailer is getting WILD

Discussion:ghostface:

Personally, I didn't think the trailer was all that impressive, but I didn't expect people to drag it as much as they are. Like, holy shit, just look at what people are saying on Twitter...or, y'know what?! maybe DON'T do that actually. It's a complete mess.

Everyone is freaking out over the film's lighting, comparing Neve Campbell's acting to Gal Gadot, saying the story looks really boring, and gassing up the previous two movies as if they're the franchise's absolute peak. Seriously, I didn't know people adored Scream 5 and 6 this much. Everyone is suddenly in love with the Carpenter sisters and thinks they're the franchise's true icons.

What's also weird is that a lot of the people who are ripping into the trailer are also just blatantly revealing that they hate it because of the Melissa Barrera situation. One minute it's "the lighting looks so awful" and then the next it's "melissa barrera after seeing how bad the scream 7 trailer looks." Very few people are trying to pretend their criticisms are unrelated to the Spyglass controversy.

People are also coming up with some really bizarre conspiracy theories like "the difference between the team behind scream (2022) using the macher house as a way to pay homage to wes craven and the franchise vs the scream 7 team literally burning it down is VERY telling. thats all i’m saying."

What do you guys think about all this?
