Time for more 'Scream 3' rumors and lies. The first but that is in italics is so stupid. Many things that Wes and said completely proves this wrong. But if you enjoy reading crap, here you go. Editors notes are in Lightblue bold.

"It appears Kevin Williamson is pissing Miramax officials off. He has promised to have the script for Scream 3 done several times and missed the deadlines. It was originally due back in April of 98 and he missed that.Actually, Kevin wasn't even contracted to write 'Scream 3' in April. So why would there be a deadline? Then it was September. Missed that. Now he has missed the December deadline.Actually, Kevin is supposed to start writing in January of 99 It appears Kevin Williamson is trying to milk Scream 3 for all he can get. He has been sending bits and pieces to Miramax but never the complete script. So far all they have are a couple of key scenes. They do have an opening sequence, a new Casey Becker phone copycat scene, and a couple of others. But I guess those scenes that Kevin has been sending them aren't very good. Now studio officials are considering bringing in a new writer to pen the Scream 3 script.Never would happen in a million years and Wes Craven has already agreed to direct if the script is as good as the two previous ones. It appears though that Kevin Williamson is going with the storyline of Sidney Prescott getting killed in the opening sequence and Gale Weathers and the stars of 'Stab 2' becoming the stars of this film, which Bob and Harvey Weinstein don't like because they'd like to finish the trilogy with Sidney Precott (Neve Campbell) in the lead. They were also rather pissed because in the Casey Becker copycat phone scene, Kevin Williamson thought it would be cool to have a boy get offed in the scene instead, a cousin of Sidney Prescott's who is coming for her funeral and gets offed. Only the boy will be around 13 years old and nobody wants to see JTT in a Scream film..Jonathon Taylor Thomas is 17 Oh, and the majority of the rumors on this page are fake, Master P isn't even considered for a role because there are no roles really completely written yet. But of course, you can't believe everything you read on the net so you might take this with a grain of salt. I'll be back with more scoops when everything around here is jiving."
Now, we have a little Christmas story that is so dorky to be true. No member of Miramax would do this, unless its a lie.
"Twas some nights before Christmas, when all through the Miramax Chrismas Party, all creatures were stirring about Scream 3. The stockings were hung by the chimney with care. In hopes that Father Death would soon be there. The executives were all smug in there predictions while visions of box office receipts danced in their heads
"Things heard throughout the night:
'Did ya here, Williamson has finished the script' 'God I hope he did' 'Bob has talked to Gywenth and Ben about cameos' 'They would never do a movie like Scream' 'They would if he dangled another movie infront of their faces' 'You mean a 2 movie package?' 'He wouldn't stoop' 'Do you know who you are talking about? He would. He has.' 'Were they really in the mob?' 'Shut up with the mob crap' 'If The Faculty fails we know what to blame. Whoever came up with those ads should be shot.' 'Is Drew coming back?' 'Not as Casey but maybe a cameo, I think it would be cool' 'Isn't that a big internet rumor?' 'I think so.' 'Christina Ricci is said to be a fan.' 'Lets hope. Face the facts, the Scream 2 opener was a huge let down. We need someone famous and good to make it a classic.' 'We don't even know if the script is written!' 'Yeah, but they still have names that they want.' 'Who else thinks Kevin will make it a walking billboard for "Dawsons Creek".' 'I don't, he has already gotten them enough jobs. Time to give different actors a chance.' 'Whatever. 'Buffy' 'Dawson' 'Felecity' actors will be in it. No new faces.' 'Well Buffy is a must.' "
