    When 5 came out all my friends were gushing over Jenna and said Melissa was wooden and I felt the opposite, I actually didn’t like Tara as a character but loved Sam, and this time I came around to liking Tara and all my friends like Sam now, I prefer 5 but 6 is good too and it’s pretty great seeing my favorite horror franchise make a successful comeback, and it’s nice to see all Melissa’s haters eat their words in the end, must feel very vindicating for her

    You know there isn't an agenda with casting when you don't care what color the skin is of the actors. I didnt even notice and couldn't care less. I fell in love with them because they are well written and acted. That's how you do it Hollywood! Don't force people into roles simply to check diversity boxs. Write roles and cast the best actors to fill them regardless of ethnic background. We're all people at the end of the day.

    You know a thought occurred to me back during the first Scream 1996 or the second Scream movie 1997 if a main character like a Latino, Latina, Black, or Asian it would have raised a lot of eyebrows and their would be a lot of hate and racism I'm South American Paraguayan so I guess I can relate but I had no hate or racism in my life but I grew up in American and I live in Vermont but I bet Melissa has faced racism and hate in her life in the acting business she doesn't and doesn't have to talk about but you can it hurts her but she seems very strong about it.

    For fucks sake, the least realistic thing about the movie was entering A BODEGA for cripes sake and not immediately..I mean IMMEDIATELY…locking the door when two girls come in screaming and obviously scared.
    Like bodegas are hotbeds for shootings and stabbings in NYC. And a guy with a knife is gonna come in and take out everyone? This obviously wasn’t the Bronx. That Scream mask would’ve had Timberland boot marks all over it from getting curb stomped by all the guys in there.
    But otherwise EXCELLENT movie.

    She isn't very bright on the topic of diversity and it's disappointing for her to just say "That's not the discourse." Yeah babe it's the discourse you don't want to talk about. Lol. Horror movies have historically excluded minorities/killed us off violently. It's okay to not be educated on history, but she shouldn't be dismissing the topic. Shame
    EDIT:
    I agree that her question was answered gracefully. I didn't say it was a wrong answer, I was just expecting a more detailed answer and was hoping she spoke more about it in the sense of the history of minorities being excluded from the genre.
