Sure, why not get more money for more films?

We start with a kill that could mean "we're done with the past of this franchise"... but nope, back with Sidney in the next scene, so nostalgia we are. And it's all about Sidney's daughter and her friends, with definite connections to Sidney despite trying to have new character (every five minutes, someone should be asking "where's Sidney?") Ghsotface continues to get away with a lot, but it's better to be lucky than be good (and Ghostface is INCREDIBLY lucky.) But since everyone is meta in these movies now, events never end. ...oh wait a second, is this about how AI is also a killer...? no, can't do that, gotta inflate that bubble!

Wow, not only do we get a lot of previous cast back, we get the collection of popular young actors filling out more roles... wait, didn't we do that in 6? Or what it 5? Kevin Williamson is back, and he is retreading the well plumbed ... uh ... well.

They are being far more realistic with the gore, with people not dying with a simple stab wound to the general body area... but that doesn't make this better. This is not the series to get serious about that.

This is all about creating the next generation... without ever letting go of the previous one...

At the very least... we have Joel McHale in this, so it's not entirely terrible...
