== Scream (1996) ==
* Why does Ghostface say that Casey got the second question on the phone wrong? He asked who the killer of Friday the Thirteenth was, she said Jason.
** I think they meant the killer from the first movie not the entire series. The killer from that movie was {{spoiler|Jason's mom.}}
** It was a trick question. Ghostface never specified which Friday the 13th, which was the whole point. In the 1st one {{spoiler|Jason's mom's the killer, but Alice also kills her, thus she's a "killer" too. Then there's the copycat in Part 5,}} then there's Jason.
** Yeah, it was definitely a trick question. [[Heads I Win, Tails You Lose|Casey was screwed no matter what she said.]] I'm paraphrasing here, but at the end {{spoiler|Stu and Billy say something like "Oh, this is the fun part. We ask you the questions, you get it wrong, BOOKAW! You die!" "You get it right...and you die."}}
* Does Ghostface ever ask quizzes about horror movies in any of the other movies?
** {{spoiler|Yes, in the fourth one.}} Also, logically speaking, none of the other killers could actually know about the trivia. {{spoiler|All 4 people involved are dead.}}
Line 15 ⟶ 14:
** They wanted Sidney to watch? {{spoiler|Billy was angry at her because her mother broke up his parents' marriage}}, maybe he wanted to make her suffer by drawing out the process and show her exactly ''how'' he was going to get away with it before he killed her.
* How, exactly, could the killers expect to get away with their plan? Billy would have a lot of explaining to do - like why was his shirt covered in red tinted corn syrup and why was the corn syrup also all over the master bedroom in a way that would make it obvious that somebody faked a killing. With semen and other samples on the bed, it goes without saying that the police would very quickly figure out that Sydney had sex with him that night in that bed and that shortly after, he pretended to be killed. To top it off, he also had gunshot residue on his hands, and Sydney's father - the man supposed to be framed for the murders - would show obvious signs of being tied up for a couple days not the least of which would be the unmistakable marring of his face and wrists from the duct tape.

Line 62 ⟶ 19:
** The only kill you could possibly be referring to is {{spoiler|Mrs. Loomis}}. {{spoiler|Billy, Roman and Jill}} were all shot in the head when they were attacking Sidney, Dewey and Gail. Sidney was confident that {{spoiler|Mrs. Loomis}} would return for a "final scare", just as Billy and Mickey did. Yes, the right thing to do would be to wait for the police to get there and deal with it. But the woman a psychotic murderer who'd killed {{spoiler|Sidney's closest friend}}, but was also responsible for planning the deaths of {{spoiler|her boyfriend, roomate and several others}} and had planned to kill her and frame her for the murders. The bitch may have been defenseless, but getting shot in the head when she was probably dead anyway does not put her in the category of "sympathetic mass-murderer".
** And as for "Sidney's a murderer" thing, that's the point.
