Just in time for Avatar Fire and Ash’s digital release, it’s time for a little blue house cleaning. This week, the Three Men and a Retrospective Podcast finally review the third Avatar film. Why did it take so long? Well we get into that in the podcast. Needless to say, all of us experienced it in theaters, and all of us have stories. But, most importantly, after three years away from the blue world of Pandora, how does James Cameron handle a story that up until this point, many have called derivative? And do we all still stand by our original opinions of the previous films? All this and more is answered in the below podcast. And be sure to come back next week, as we get back to Marvel territory by looking at movies starring that green (not blue) creature The Incredible Hulk

Here we go. The end of the Scream retrospective is finally upon us. After all the buildup and behind the scenes drama, Scream VII was released to massive box office success. But the reviews have not been kind. So the question is will Garrett, Matt, and Adam feel the same? Check out this bulk sized review, and be sure to stay tuned until the end as we reveal what we are going to covering next, as well as give some acknowledgments. As an aside, we’d like to give a big thank you to all who listen and give us feedback every single week. We greatly appreciate it.

In the tradition of Friday the 13th and A Nightmare on Elm Street, producers said t wait long to green light a sequel once 2022’s Scream was a certified hit. Sure enough, a script was churned out that put a whole new spin on the Friday the 13th Part VIII Jason Takes Manhattan. Let’s just call it, Scream Takes Manhattan. But, as with all Scream productions, there were problems. Not the least of which was Scream mainstay Neve Campbell did not like the offer that was put on her table to come back. When producers did not budge, Campbell put out a statement that she would not be coming back and she wished the franchise well. Put a pin in that for next week. In the meantime, Courtney Cox’s Gail Weathers was coming back, along with all survivors from next week, along with Hayden Panattiere’s Kirby, for an adventure/horror story that takes obsession with serial killers to a whole new level. Join the Three Men and a Retrospective Podcast as they get into the logistics of 2023’s Scream 6, and Garrett and Adam once again watch an entry in this series for the very first time. Listen to Garrett get giddy over the return of Kirby and Adam obsesses over Samara Weaving. And of course there’s the controversy and review. Come back next week as The Three Men and a Retrospective Podcast closes out the Scream series by reviewing Scream 7, as well as reveal what series they’re starting next!

In 2011, it was not good luck to wait 11 years to bring the band back together and do another Scream film. Scream 4 lost money, and plans to continue that trilogy went by the wayside. Flash forward another 11 years. 2022 brought back key players like David Arquette and Neve Campbell, while ushering in a new batch of kids. But without Kevin Williamson writing the script, and new series scribes/directors Radio Silence taking the helm, how does 2022’s Scream entry add up?? Join Garrett and Adam (both watching Scream 2022 for the very first time) as well as Matt as they review the certified hit and decide whether it should be built upon. And keep coming back as the guys are leading to a review of the new sequel Scream 7!

Eleven years after the release of Scream 3, producers were ready to try again. Though the difference is this time, they didn’t have too many schedules to work around. Everyone from Neve Campbell, Courtney Cox, and David Arquette, not to mention director Wes Craven, had nothing else going on and were ready to play in the Scream sandbox again. Though Craven did have some some standards. If he was coming back, Kevin Williamson had to return to write it and the script had to be as good as the first film. So Williamson waited until a break in The Vampire Diaries TV show to churn out a script full of things Scream fans come to see. Yet, the fans didn’t show up. Once Scream 4 was finally released in April of 2011, even with the inclusion of Heroes’ Hayden Panetierre and the returning cast, the film landed with a thud. Is it warranted? Join Garrett, Matt, and Adam as they review the last film of the series that Garrett has seen. Be sure to return next week as they review Scream (2022), a film of which only Matt has seen. Remember, all this is a lead up to a review of the just released Scream 7!
