Stabbity Stab Stab: Ghostface’s newest victim is Emma Roberts

Ghostface gets another virgin to terrorize

Old franchises never die; they just get sequels.

It’s been reported for the last several years that Dimension has been wanting to restart their dormant Scream series with a fourth entry that would provide a new trilogy for the character Ghostface, first seen in the now-classic 1997 original that starred Neve Campbell, Courtney Cox, and David Arquette. Alongside these returning actors, several names have been tossed around as potential fodder for Ghostface to wreck havoc on: Ashley Greene (best known for portraying Alice Cullen in the Twilight franchise), Hayden Panettiere (“Claire Bennett” on Heroes),  and Rory Culkin (You Can Count on Me) have all been in talks for starring in the upcoming Scre4m (or Scream 4) that is also confirmed to be helmed by the original creative team of Kevin Williamson and legendary director Wes Craven.

However, aside from definite confirmation of the crew behind the project and the return of Campbell and the Arquettes, the only solid peice of casting  news has been reported by Entertainment Weekly, with Emma Roberts (Nancy Drew) being confirmed today for the role of Jill Kessler, cousin to Sidney Prescott (Campbell). Details are still being sketched out as the film gears up for production, with the Weinstein Company look for a release date of April 15, 2011. Jamie Kennedy, who appeared in Scream, Scream 2, and a cameo in Scream 3, was also rumored to reprise his role as film geek Randy Meeks, despite being killed off in Scream 2.

Guest Blog: Evie Martinez on “Heroes”

Since I’ve spent the last few days gathering materials for a special blog next Monday, I was unable to properly prepare an entry for today. However, I have as many friends who are equally knowledgable and have just as much vested interest in fanboyisms as I do, so today we have my good friend Evie Martinez sharing her thoughts with us. Take it away Evie! 

Is this the final frontier for Heroes?

 

So my friend Zedd asked me to write a guest blog for him tonight since his won’t be ready until Monday.

Problem is, I can’t think of what to write about. Or rather, I can’t decide on a topic to write about it. See the very minute he asked me I knew two things. The first being, I had to write about something that is in some way shape or form, pop-culture related. The second thing I knew, was that the blog had to be long, and smart sounding (eep). I guarantee neither 🙂 

However, the problem still remains, I do not know what to write about. So instead I’ve decided just to gripe about something that has been bothering me as of late and hope that Zedd never asks me to write for him ever again :-). Now onto griping. Heroes has been canceled. Now I am a Heroes fan and have been one for quite a while, but lets be honest here folks, its confusing as heck to follow and really Season 3 was just downright AWFUL! However, that doesn’t mean that the show itself is awful, and that doesn’t mean that the show doesn’t deserve an ending. I mean really, you start watching a show, you start to care about the characters, you look forward to new seasons, you invest four years of your life to making sure you tune in every week to watch the new episodes, and for what?? For some network executive to come in, axe your show and do it without allowing you an ending!!! Can we please at the very least have some kind of absolution for our devotion to Peter Petrelli’s determination for making a difference in the world!!! Can we please not be made to feel like an asshole because yes, we actually wanted to see who Sylar would Kill this week!!! GIVE US AN ENDING!!! GIVE US SOME CLOSURE!!! Is that really so much to ask for?

*sigh*  

No wonder realty tv shows are on the rise. At least those always have an ending. 

Ok end of mini and probably not that smart sounding of a blog
