SINNERS is now the biggest Hollywood original movie of any kind at the box office since 2017 when Pixar's COCO came out. To find a live-action movie that made at least $200M domestic, we have to go back much further. This is truly bananas.

The day of my first conference style presentation is here! Join me today for the CLA Scholars Day at MTSU where I will be discussing Scream and fandom.
March 20, 2025 - 2:30 pm - Peck Hall 207 “How can fandom be toxic? It’s about love!”: A look at Scream’s (2022) Reflection on Fandom and Franchises Presenter: Amanda Triplett, Master’s Candidate Liberal Arts Faculty Advisors: Dr. Christopher Weedman, Department of English and Dr. Janet McCormick, MALA Director/Department of Communication Studies Abstract Everyone is a fan of something; be that a book, a film franchise, an actor, a sports team, or anything else they find entertaining. Some people enjoy being a fan on their own but for many, they seek out others who like that same thing, a fandom. In my analysis of Scream (2022), also known as Scream 5, I will look at the intertextual connections between the film’s meta-commentary on the nature of film franchises, the growing toxic fan behaviors of the fan-text-producer reactions represented in the film and comparing it to the real-world incidents involving Star Wars: The Last Jedi and Ghostbusters (2016). In doing so, I will explore how Scream 5 calls attention to toxic fan behavior for all fandoms and how it affects matters on an entertainment industry level, not just within the horror community.
