I think S1 is the scariest and the most pure of all 3. The cast were rather unknown and therefore more ambitious actors. The direction was terrific!
S2 was funnier, it was a more bright and colorful set, but still scary, a successful sequel.
S3 was a disappointment. Courtney Cox and David Arquette acted like dried-up tomatoes, and Neve Campbell could not compensate that.
It had a lame end and the script suffered from the absence of Kevin Williamson. It was not scary, and not really funny. It felt like a movie that had to be made. The tagline sucked: first part: rules were set ??
second part: rules were bent ??
third and final part: forget the rules, all bets are off ??
Where can we have an evidence of all these things in the 3 Scream-movies??
It was a good thing to only have 1 killer in S3, but they didn't follow Kevin Williamson's outline for S2 and S3. The fact that there is more than one script is at the expense of the originality. Cotton should have been the killer in S2. Sidney should have been the killer in S3 and Dewey and Gale should have died.

I still hate the fact that everyone thinks Sidney should be a killer. If you're that tormented, do you really think you're going to start it up again yourself?

Scream 2 sucked, plain and simple. It was boring and the jokes were ludicrous (with the exception with Randy's wisecracks in the classroom discussion).

Scream 3 was hilarious. Parker Posey was great as Jennifer Jolie, and had a wonderful and wicked sense of humor, and the killer was a character I actually felt sorry for.

As for Cotton being the killer in Scream 2, well, he wasn't. Sure, he and Sidney basically slashed each other to death, but the original killers were just Hallie, Derek and Mrs. Loomis.

And if you go by that treatment, both Gale and Dewey are dead before Scream 3 /ubb/frown.gif

Where and what are the details about these alternate endings to Scream 2? Also, what would Hallie's 'motive' have been. To have broken the rule of serial killers only being white males?--AKA, she's nuts.

for starters screamfreak: i totally agree with your analogy about scream 2 being brighter and alot more colourful than
scream 1!! and now on a negative note i totally and utterly disagree with your opinion of scream 1: not setting the rules
2: not bending the rules
3: not forgetting the rules and all the bets are off..........
about them not hinting about theses rules being created! (eg: scream 1 the rules were set by the fact that there was 2 white male killers and all the victoms are white!!!
scream 2 the rules were bent by the fact that there was a female killer and a male killer and there were 3 black victoms!!!
and finally scream 3 the rules are forgotten and all bets are off because there is only one killer and it has a strange twist at the end!!!
