the fact that sidney prescott became a women's helpline operator/advisor is so satisfying, considering the telephone is one of the primary tools that ghostface uses to terrorise her and his other victims. like, she really took on the job to be a safe call for women in trouble, in need, in danger of their male partners. her response to her trauma and her only contribution to the world (when she was living in complete isolation in scream 3) was to be that comforting voice at the end of the line, and to make other women feel less alone. and for that, shes a fucking legend.
btw i feel like with the new candyman coming out people are referring to it as jordan peele’s movie because he’s a producer but it’s actually directed by nia dacosta!! i know jordan peele is a more known name but she directed and co-wrote candyman!!! her name should be talked about more!! because it’s HER film!!
“I don’t like that they’re bringing racial issues into the new Candyman movie”
Bruh, have you even seen the original movie??
I’d understand if it was never a thing before. It’s annoying when stories we’ve had before suddenly try to get Woke™, but this is literally at the core of the movies.
