Well technically the scene in Scream 2 is an in-universe movie based on the events of Scream 1. It makes sense for it to look differently.

[@maddoxghostman4572]

I thought the exact same thing.. I don’t think they watched the series before doing this segment lol.

[@katemarron6957]

I’m confused, did they not say it was the same murder of the same character? And what do you mean look differently? I thought the point was one scene was smoother than the other

[@katemarron6957]

Genuinely confused, not a vox Stan 😅

[@cityuser]

@@katemarron6957 In the video, it sounded like the Scream 2 scene was just a botched version of the first movie's scene. Nic argues that it was intentionally made to look worse , as it fits with the story.

[@D.R.590]

I paused the video to mention that to my bf. It was the scene from "Stab" intentionally made to look cheesier because of how self aware the scream franchise is.

[@tenaciousdean6179]

Glad you addressed the recent news. Would have felt wrong if you left it.

[@SingingGinge]

All these safety features for horror movies and yet prop guns that shoot blanks are still allowed on other movie sets. R.I.P to those lost on sets due to the production neglecting to consider all safety facets for realism. Glad to see horror movies are doing what they can to keep their casts and crew safe.

[@pom_odoro]

We don't yet know all the facts surrounding the Rust incident, consider that before saying they neglected safety for realism. It's just as likely just neglect from laziness or being untrained (most of the set crew were non-union). They went through layers upon layers of standard safety etiquette around firearms in order for that accident to happen. Blanks are used by the tons each year on set without incident, because of safety requirements.

[@aDriveAway]

did you miss the part of the video about "accidents happening regarding prop knives and people getting stabbed" or we're you too distracted by your own self image and virtue signaling?

[@SingingGinge]

@@pom_odoro they came out and said the movie was rushed and things were neglected. On accident of course, but this has also unfortunately caused other deaths too. I just don't believe blanks should be used, period. Again, safety over realism is my view.

[@SingingGinge]

@@aDriveAway oh yes I did catch that, thanks. Did you catch that you used "we're," instead of the proper "were," or are you too illiterate and bitter at the world to have noticed?

[@chillaxed2010]

You guys might have the receipts to know if this is true or not, but supposedly in Scream 3 (2000) actor Scott Foley was actually stabbed with a retractable icepick that missed his pad on his back when Neve Campbell stabbed him and his reaction on film is genuine.

The rust incident didnt happen bc of a "prop gun"it happened because they haf a Real gun, real bullets (no need to ever have em on set) AND because the actor declined time and time again to learn gun safety bc he's anti gun.
