** 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 [[Too Soon]] not exist in the Scream universe? You would think that ''Stab'' would get a serious case of [[Dude Not Funny]], with the short time frame and especially given the fact it was a crowd-pleasing slasher flick based off of a real-life tragedy. Sure the whole thing was basically a commentary on the screwed-up bloodlust of pop culture, but it's still incredibly disturbing.

* Jay and Silent Bob's cameo. It mostly appears as a throwaway gag but when them existing within the Screamverse, it begs the question, how much of [[The View Askew Niverse]] films are canon? It just boggles the mind.

* What the hell was with {{spoiler|Roman}} being the killer? Gale finds him in the basement, and after checking his body pretty thoroughly she declares him dead, and they never explain how he was able to STOP HIS FREAKING PULSE.
