Scary Movie 6 was so painful it completely made me forget the pinched nerve in my arm from my pinkie to my elbow. Genuinely so painful, it worked as physical therapy. Thank you Scary Movie 6.

When the trailer started with a pronoun joke, I already knew it was downhill from the start. Hope you recover!

Finn/Brush2

Hope you recover from the movie!!! Also your sacrifice is appreciated so I know I don't have to see it.

Don't get it twisted: I'd LOVE IT if we were in an "Audiences just told CORPORATE HOLLYWOOD to give it ORIGINAL MOVIES yeaaaaa!!!" moment... but we aren't. "Scary Movie 6" is about to top the weekend. Shockingly 🙄 the video platform that gave the world Mr. Beast isn't coming to save us 😏

Heard about the KPop Demon Hunters Joke in the new Scary Movie and I think some people should be banned from writing comedy

The trailer was enough for me to want these hacks banned from writing comedy.

Apparently in true Scary Movie fashion, it seems the movie may have been massively retooled after test screenings at the last minute, and the original ending had the character survive (as per in Scream 6), but that was lost when it was replaced. Not that it makes any of this any better.

alternate ending

@jamiroqueer.bsky.social

it’s been something else watching Faris do press for the new SCARY MOVIE while sharing her history of low confidence in herself How do you think you’re “not funny” when you’re not merely funny but Anna Faris

(having a roommate who responds to your big break with “but you’re not funny” probably helped. Why does her life seem to have a disproportionate ratio of jerks)

Just heard a summary of Scary Movie 6, and it sounds so bad, that not only do I not want to see it, I don't think I want to see ANY new movie in the theaters any more. It's that bad.

With SCARY MOVIE 6 opening with around $55 million, MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE barely cracking $30 million, and THE AMAZING DIGITAL CIRCUS nabbing around $22 million by Sunday, everything at this weekend’s box office is proceeding exactly as predicted...
