Scream (1996 film)/Awesome

Across the series:

 * Dewey gets a single one in each film. He not only survives getting stabbed in the back by the killer in the first film, but in the second one stabs him at least several times in the back and still lives. Dewey also is the only character aside from Sidney and Gale to dispatch the killer, shooting, the third film's Ghostface, in the head.
 * Sidney not only punches the ever living hell out of Gale Weathers in the first Scream, but she does it again in Scream 2 in the same fashion as before.
 * Using Red Right Hand as the series' main theme is pretty awesome and foreboding.
 * Any time Sidney confronts the killer at the end is always a Crowning Moment of Awesome for her. Her final fight scenes are always awesome.

The first film:
"Gale: "I guess I remembered the safety that time you bastard.""
 * Sidney taking out the killer.
 * Tatum spending most of her chase scene kicking the killer's ass, smashing his face into a freezer door, hitting him several times in the crotch and face with beer bottles, and finally flipping him onto his back when he tried to bumrush her. Had she just hit the garage door button when she had the chance she would have not only survived her encounter but walked away less injured then the killer.
 * Gale shooting the killer towards the end with the one liner:

"Sidney: "We're going to play a little game. It's called guess who just phoned the police and reported your sorry mother fucking ass!""
 * Sidney's phone conversation with the killers:



The second film:

 * When Sidney is confronted by, he begins comparing himself to , to which Sid replies "You're forgetting one thing about  -- I fucking killed him!" Sid's delivery AND the line itself is incredibly bad-ass!
 * Randy Meeks gets a by stalling the killer over the phone so Dewey and Gale to find him. It ends with him chewing out one of the first killers,, as well as the killer, fully knowing it would have.
 * Sidney shooting the already dead killer in the head with the deadpan remark "just in case".
 * Ghostface gets one when he attacks Sidney and Hailee while they are under the protection of the FBI by quickly and brutally dispatching people trained to stop people like him.

The third film:
"Jennifer: "My lawyer liked that!" Gale: "Not as much as I did.""
 * Ghostface gets one by tricking someone into going back inside the house. Prior before this, Ghostface was faxing script pages to the actors, and when they decided to get out of the house. Ghostface then sends yet another script page, leaving one actor to go back inside
 * Another one goes to Ghostface just for being Crazy Prepared..
 * Gale punching Jennifer in the face.

"Sidney: "Will you just get on with it? Because I have heard this shit before! Do you know why you kill people? Do you? BECAUSE YOU CHOOSE TO! THERE IS NO ONE ELSE TO BLAME! WHY DON'T YOU TAKE SOME FUCKING RESPONSIBILITY?""
 * Jennifer

The fourth film:
"Sidney: You forgot the first rule of remakes, . Don't fuck with the original."
 * At the end of Scream 4, just when  is about to shoot Gale, Sid sneaks up and

"Dewey (explaining how he was taken down): [The killer] snuck up behind me. Sidney: They always do. "
 * Which is then followed up by.


 * The various times when Sidney busts out karate kicks to the killer. Between Scream 3 and 4, she has taken some levels in badassary, and she sets a quota for horror characters everywhere.
 * Kirby's first conversation with Ghostface is pretty awesome on her part. Although she wasn't aware she was really talking to the killer at the time.
 * Kirby winning the trivia round Ghostface springs on her. Then, risking her life by leaving her safe spot to attempt to rescue Charlie.
 * Sidney smashing a picture over Ghostface's head.
