Fridge Brilliance
- A minor one that hints to the twist, compared to Scream (1996), that there's only one killer rather than two of them. Ghostface speaks in his physical appearances unlike the original film because, besides a voice modulator, the killers only had one voice modulator - one would call the victims and the other would kill them.
- Also, Scream and Scary Movie are both published by Dimensions Pictures around the same time as the third film was being produced. This would've explained why the killer speaks in Scary Movie but not in the original Scream - the killer only spoke on the phone until the third film! Just like the third film, there was only one killer!
- Doofy being the killer is obvious in hindsight: not only is seen he doing a creepy Kubrick Stare in every scene he's in, but there's also the fact that Gail knows exactly when the killer will be at the Lover's Lane. Only one character actually talks to her aside from her cameraman.
- In Scary Movie 2, Cindy tries to placate the angry black cat by apologizing for pooping in his litter box, which really pisses it off. This is actual normal cat behavior, as cats will usually bury their droppings, and only leave them exposed as a show of dominance. Cindy leaving her own droppings out for the cat to see compelled him to put her in her place.
- The rap battle between George and Fat Joe in 3 also takes a dig at how who won can be determined not by the material being spit but by how much the crowd gets behind you. Notice how George's actual lines never once go after anything about Fat Joe; it's all George making fun of his own white background without any kind of incisive shots at Fat Joe. Compare that to the 8 Mile equivalent where Rabbit also does things like expose Papa Doc as a wannabe gansta poser in the climactic battle even while he refers to his own white trailer trash background. Still, the crowd gets hyped up (with some thumb-on-the-scales hyping by Malik) and the narrative shows it as George winning — well, at least until the hood went up.
Fridge Logic
- In Scary Movie 2 Theo is clearly wearing a g-string, but during the Charlie's Angels (2000)-inspired strip scene she switches to panties. Either it's a Continuity Snarl or she mistakenly changed into another set of lingerie.
- Lindsay Lohan appears to be wearing a leotard during the opening sex scene with Charlie Sheen in Scary Movie V. Um.... how does one have sex with a leotard on?
