Best Horror Film Round 2B: Scream (1996) [6] vs. The Conjuring (2013) [27] vs. Final Destination (2000) [38]

But since you want a rebuttal. Here you go. The reason why I said your opinion is shit, and used all of those icons because the movie itself, hell the franchise starting with this movie revived a god damn genre that has been pretty much dead for more than six years. Without Scream you wouldn't get any of the horror movies you likely enjoyed that followed Scream, jackass.

I think all my opinions are correct?

 

[Deezy]

Somebody sound mad. You gonna cry? I'm not in the least bit mad about your opinion. You are a one in a million through cyberspace my guy.

You the one sounding mad right now. You think Matthew Lillard sucks as an actor. That's cool. You think the movie sucked. That's cool too. You think the reveal was lame. Stupid even. Right the fuck on my guy.

Thats cool. Not a big deal. I do have a right to look at you like a dumb ass for your opinion. That doesn't make your opinion any less valid and damn sure don't make mine correct.

How's that for how this shit works?

That wasn't what I was hinting.

Don't worry @Grim this is my last comment on the matter and I'll see my way out.

I know how this is gonna go.

Flamin' should be allowed, we are men... that was a nice, hilarious back and forth where nuthin' was settled.

Scream is one of my all-time favorite films so I respectfully disagree with that smack talk in this thread.

That said, I support everyone's right to have their own opinion. I dislike some majorly loved films and whatnot as well.

 

[Keith]

Matthew Lillard ruins everything......only thing this movie had was being meta. Plain and simple.

Nah disagree. It has a very good lead and a strong supporting cast. Plus the horror moments it does have are pretty effective. The opening scene is fantastic. Plus you say being meta like its a bad thing. It took being meta to a whole new level.

Well I did state that I like Scream but I like it always less upon rewatches when ya already know the twist. If it matters repeatin'.

Part my love for it is through nostalgia. I was a teen when it first came out and remember seeing it a couple of times at the cinema and just getting a real buzz both times. Watched it countless times on VHS too and have re-watched a good few more times on TV since. It still holds up well, but is probably overrated. I can understand why someone who didn't grow up with it wouldn't have the same love.
