Bam! Bam! Bam! Tsis yog qhov ntawd tsis yog rab phom phom hauv bodega hauv Siav VI, nws yog lub suab ntawm cov neeg tsim khoom lub nrig nrawm nrawm khawm lub teeb ntsuab kom ntxiv franchise favorites (piv txwv li Suab VII).

nrog Siav VI NW nyuam qhuav tawm ntawm lub rooj vag, thiab ib tug sequel tshaj tawm filming xyoo no, nws zoo li cov kiv cua ntshai heev yog cov neeg tuaj saib lub hom phiaj kawg kom tau txais daim pib muag rov qab ntawm lub thawv ntawv thiab deb ntawm "nias ua si" streaming kab lis kev cai. Tab sis tej zaum nws sai dhau lawm.

Yog tias peb tsis tau kawm peb zaj lus qhia lawm, banging tawm cov yeeb yaj kiab pheej yig txaus ntshai hauv kev ua tiav sai tsis yog lub tswv yim dag kom tau txais pob tw hauv lub rooj ua yeeb yam. Cia peb nyob ib pliag ntsiag to kom nco txog qhov tsis ntev los no Halloween reboot/retcon. Txawm hais tias cov xov xwm ntawm David Gordon Green tshuab tawm ntawm gossamer thiab resurrecting franchise nyob rau hauv peb lub sij hawm yog xov xwm zoo nyob rau hauv 2018, nws tshooj kawg tsis ua dab tsi tab sis muab lub tarnish rov qab rau qhov ntshai heev classic.

Tej zaum qaug dej qaug cawv ntawm qhov kev vam meej ntawm nws thawj ob zaj yeeb yaj kiab, Green tau nce mus rau qhov thib peb sai heev tab sis ua tsis tiav los muab kev pabcuam kiv cua. Kev thuam ntawm Xus xaus Feem ntau yog hinged ntawm qhov tsis muaj lub sijhawm tshuaj ntsuam muab rau ob qho tib si Michael Myers thiab Laurie Strode thiab hloov ntawm tus cwj pwm tshiab uas tsis muaj dab tsi ua nrog thawj ob zaj yeeb yaj kiab.

"Hais ncaj ncees, peb yeej tsis tau txiav txim siab ua ib zaj yeeb yaj kiab Laurie thiab Michael," tus thawj coj hais Moviemaker. "Lub tswv yim tias nws yuav tsum yog qhov kev sib tw zaum kawg-hom kev sib cav tsis tau hla peb lub siab."

Yuav ua li cas ntxiv?

Txawm hais tias tus neeg thuam no nyiam zaj yeeb yaj kiab kawg, ntau tus pom nws tawm ntawm qhov kev kawm thiab tej zaum ib leeg-ib leeg uas yuav tsum tsis tau txuas nrog lub canon redeveloped. Nco ntsoov Halloween tuaj tawm hauv 2018 nrog Tua tso tawm xyoo 2021 (ua tsaug rau COVID) thiab thaum kawg Ends nyob rau hauv 2022. Raws li peb paub, lub blumhouse engine yog fueled los ntawm brevity los ntawm tsab ntawv mus rau kev tshuaj ntsuam, thiab txawm hais tias nws tsis tuaj yeem ua pov thawj, hammering tawm ob zaj yeeb yaj kiab dhau los sai sai yuav yog qhov tseem ceeb rau nws qhov tseem ceeb undoing.

Uas coj peb mus rau lub Quaj qw franchise. Yuav Suab VII tau underbaked purely vim Paramount xav txo nws lub sijhawm ua noj? Tsis tas li ntawd, ntau yam zoo tuaj yeem ua rau koj mob. Nco ntsoov, txhua yam nyob rau hauv moderation. Thawj zaj yeeb yaj kiab tau tso tawm xyoo 1996 nrog rau tom ntej yuav luag ib xyoos tom qab, ces peb xyoos tom qab ntawd. Cov tom kawg yog suav tias yog qhov tsis muaj zog ntawm franchise, tab sis tseem muaj zog.

Tom qab ntawd peb nkag mus rau lub xyoo tso tawm ncua sij hawm. Scream 4 tso tawm xyoo 2011, Quaj qw (2022) 10 xyoo tom qab ntawd. Qee tus yuav hais tias, "zoo nyob, qhov sib txawv ntawm lub sijhawm tso tawm ntawm thawj ob Scream tsos yog raws nraim ntawm qhov rov pib dua." Thiab qhov ntawd yog qhov tseeb, tab sis xav txog qhov ntawd Quaj qw ('96) yog ib zaj yeeb yaj kiab uas hloov cov yeeb yaj kiab txaus ntshai mus ib txhis. Nws yog thawj daim ntawv qhia thiab siav rau rov qab-rau-rov tshooj, tab sis tam sim no peb yog tsib sequels tob. Ua tsaug Wes Craven khaws cov khoom ntse thiab lom zem txawm tias los ntawm tag nrho cov parodies.

Hloov pauv, tib daim ntawv qhia no tseem muaj sia nyob vim tias nws tau siv sijhawm kaum xyoo ntev, muab lub sijhawm tshiab los tsim ua ntej Craven tawm tsam cov tropes tshiab hauv lwm qhov txuas. Nco ntsoov hauv Scream 3, lawv tseem siv fax tshuab thiab flip xov tooj. Ntxuam txoj kev xav, kev tshaj xov xwm thiab cov neeg muaj npe nrov hauv online tau tsim fetuses thaum lub sijhawm ntawd. Cov qauv no yuav muab tso rau hauv Craven zaj yeeb yaj kiab thib plaub.

Fast-forward lwm kaum ib xyoo thiab peb tau txais xov tooj cua Silence reboot (?) uas ua rau lom zem ntawm cov lus tshiab "requel" thiab "legacy cim." Scream rov qab thiab tshiab dua puas tau. Uas coj peb mus rau Scream VI thiab hloov chaw. Tsis muaj spoilers ntawm no, tab sis qhov rov zoo li oddly reminiscent ntawm re-hashed yav dhau los storylines, uas tej zaum yuav yog ib tug satire nyob rau hauv thiab ntawm nws tus kheej.

Tam sim no, nws tau tshaj tawm tias Suab VII yog ib qho mus, tab sis nws cia peb xav li cas xws li ib tug luv luv hiatus yuav mus tsis muaj dab tsi nyob rau hauv ntshai heev zeitgeist rau channel. Hauv txhua qhov kev sib tw no kom tau nyiaj ntau, qee tus hais Suab VII tsuas tuaj yeem sab saum toj nws cov thawj coj los ntawm kev nqa rov qab Stu? tiag tiag? Qhov ntawd, hauv kuv lub tswv yim, yuav yog kev siv zog pheej yig. Ib txhia kuj hais tias, qhov sequels feem ntau coj los rau hauv lub ntsiab lus supernatural, tab sis qhov ntawd yuav tsis muaj qhov chaw rau Quaj qw.

Cov franchise no puas tuaj yeem ua nrog 5-7 xyoo hiatus ua ntej nws rhuav tshem nws tus kheej ntawm txoj cai? Qhov kev so ntawd yuav tso cai rau lub sijhawm thiab cov tropes tshiab los txhim kho - franchise lub neej cov ntshav - thiab feem ntau yog lub zog tom qab nws txoj kev vam meej. Los yog Quaj qw mus rau hauv qeb "thriller", qhov twg cov cim tsuas yog mus ntsib lwm tus neeg tua neeg hauv lub npog ntsej muag yam tsis muaj kev thuam?

Tej zaum yog qhov tiam tshiab ntawm cov kiv cua ntshai heev xav tau. Nws tuaj yeem ua haujlwm tau kawg, tab sis tus ntsuj plig ntawm canon yuav ploj mus. Cov kiv cua tiag tiag ntawm koob yuav pom cov kua txiv tsis zoo yog tias Xov Tooj Cua Silence ua dab tsi tsis muaj kev tshoov siab nrog Suab VII. Qhov ntawd yog siab heev. Green coj lub caij nyoog rau hauv Xus xaus thiab qhov ntawd tsis tau them.

Txhua yam uas tau hais, Quaj qw, yog dab tsi, yog ib tug masterclass ntawm lub tsev hype. Tab sis cia siab tias, cov yeeb yaj kiab no tsis tig mus rau hauv qhov chaw pw hav zoov uas lawv lom zem hauv Nkaug. Tseem muaj qee lub neej nyob hauv cov yeeb yaj kiab no txawm tias Dab Neej Neeg tsis muaj sijhawm los catnap. Tab sis raws li lawv hais, New York yeej tsis tsaug zog.
