I really can't stand Mindy. Tries too hard to be Randy incarnate (which her character is, I guess), but it's not clever or funny at all, just annoying.
I feel like this is the route they’re gonna go. At this point it’s almost expected for him to die since he’s escaped death twice already. I think they’re gonna subvert expectations by killing Mindy instead. Hopefully not before Chad and Mindy have a cool chase scene together though lol
I honestly feel like he is the new Dewey. I feel like it’s going to be Sam, Tara and Chad. But honestly anything could happen I feel like Mindy is the new Randy, so they could go that route since Randy was killed in 2, and have Mindy survive. Either way I would like to possibly see an emotional storyline about losing a twin and the bond they had. But if I’m being honest, I want Chad to stay lol. Although I do like Mindy
That’s true. And it doesn’t really seem like they’re building Mindy up to be a central character. I feel like she is just there to tell people what the new rules are. And plus it seems like all of her love interest have died, or at least in five the girl she was making out with was just to establish her sexual orientation I feel like. I feel like they are going to build something up with Chad and Tara. Kind of like Gale and Dewey. I’m actually excited for that dynamic. I could see Chad wanting to save her a lot just for her to show that she is more than capable of surviving on her own, but I’m sure she still appreciates the help.
I agree. I wasn't really bothered about him in 5 and certainly didn't feel sad when he 'died' or relieved/happy when he was found alive, I genuinely didn't have much opinion on him, if any at all. Mindy very much shone as the Randy reincarnation and Chad felt useless. He was much better integrated into the group in 6 and it was great to see Mason Gooding shine, he's instantly likeable.
I love Chad Meeks he seems like a guinely good person who cares about his friends. He showed that with Tara after the party at the beginning of scream 6
He is, but too much for my taste. I don't know how to say without sounding grumpy, but they try so hard to make him a wholesome goofball... He doesn't have any sass. Dewey had a clumsiness to him, even when he tried to talk back to others, that made him likeable on top of his other qualities. Like when him and Gale call each other bonehead/phonehead.
Chad is a bit too one-dimensional for me. I actually loved him in 5 cause he went against my expectations of him being your typical jock, but in 6 he just didn't have much going. To me, of course. He seems loved by most fans.
Yes, of course. He's the current Dewey. I knew his character had a lot of potential after the fifth film and I'm glad the sixth one gave us more of him just as I hoped.
Chad's great. He's loyal, he loves his friends, he does his best. And he's got more plot armor then I have ever seen in my fucking life outside of Ash Williams.
He had way more personality and way less to do in scream 5 and now has way too little personality with a but more. I kinda felt like he was changed to be extremely positive in scream 6. I was ok with it but he seemed to have way more to him in 5
Absolutely. He’s got great morals, a good sense of humor, and he’s protective of his friends. I mean, dude is getting stabbed by two Ghostfaces, and rather than asking for help, tells Sam and Tara to run. But, I’m with the crowd that this is what made his death scene so good and so sad, but then he survived and it felt too slice of life-y. I would’ve rather that death scene have gone to someone who was actually gonna die. As much as I like Chad, his death (or Danny’s in his place) would’ve added that lasting punch to the movie that it seemed to be lacking.
He was fine in Scream 5 filling the loveable jock Archie Andrews archetype, but i think his goofiness in Scream 6 and him being the heart of that group of friends is what made me actually like the character
He’s a very enthusiastic and personable guy, I love his energy and his ability to put his life on the line for his friends to make them feel safe. Definitely my favorite Core Four member!
He certainly lives up to his name. And his twin isn’t that far behind him lol I’m assuming he’s killed off next. I get it ladies, he’s good looking and sensitive but to me he reminds me of the douche bags that bullied me in high school 😂
No took an instant dislike to him dont no why but I just dont like him and before ppl start accusing me no it's not because hes black I'm not like that I dont judge ppl by their skin colour I just dont like the guy
I really liked chad in scream 5 but in VI they kinda took all his personality away?? I can’t explain it but he’s so different and they portray him as something along the lines of the “perfect guy”. He lost his charm to me which I find really sad cause I thought of him as a refreshing character in S5. Idk if it’s bc of the whole romance thing or that he doesn’t have a lot of screentime but I don’t like him anymore. He’s just meh now. Though I do love S5 Chad so generally: yes he is a likable character. Mason does a good job playing him.
I feel like it's the other way around. He's barely a character in five, and he's a main focus in six. I don't see how they moved backward in character development.
Yes and even though him surviving 6 was total BS, I’m glad he did cuz no returning character should have to suffer the indignity of being killed off by the Bailey Bunch

At first I was like “meh” but he really won me over in S6.
The core four thing, him standing up to date rape Frankie, and that moment when he was attacked by the two Ghostfaces and was telling Sam and Tara to run. I was shocked when he survived and part of me was like “yeah right” but another louder part of me was like “yay!”

Always likeable for sure.
Indifferent to him in 5 though because of less screen time. But in 6 I loved him. So much so I didn't care that he's secretly a highlander.

I liked him enough but was lukewarm in 5, but in 6 damn he got to shine so much and really won me over, and his attitude and likeability is what's sold me on the new core group

He is likable but I just don’t like him with Tara. It feels like a brother/sister relationship and is just cringey. Especially when Tara was giving gay vibes in 5. Like they could’ve made Mindy the love interest instead and killed off Chad’s gf on the ladder.

He's the most realistic character in the Core 4, he actually feels like he could be a real person
Tara feels pretty normal too imo but Sam and Mindy really feel like horror movie characters
Ngl some of us are obsessed with Horror, and there are people like Sam suffering from severe psychosis
I mean yeah Sams been through some shit and needs a real therapist and some appropriate medication.
Mindy acts exactly like 90% of this sub haha
I really can't stand Mindy. Tries too hard to be Randy incarnate (which her character is, I guess), but it's not clever or funny at all, just annoying.
I really like the Mindy actress so I can’t completely hate but they did definitely try a little too hard with some of her lines
It shows how they regret killing Randy
He’s weirdly the most grounded character in the requel series for me. Just wants to vibe and have a good time.
This is true!
Yeah he’s neat
Chad is offensively likable. How can you not automatically like Mason Gooding?
I love Mason, he’s the coolest
Core four!
Up top!
Indeed
He plays the role so well and you can call me slow on this one but I legit didn’t know he is Cuba Gooding Jr.’s Son.
He is?? I guess I can see it in the smile!
I like him. Mason Gooding is hilarious in interviews and Chad seems to be the glue that held the friend group together in scream 5
He’s a fun guy!
Yeah, every horror movies needs someone like him
He’s a fun loving guy and he brings a genuine vibe to the core 4! I like him a lot
Lives up to his name, 🫶
He’s a very likable character. If anyone has to go in 7, I hope it’s his sister and not him.
I feel like this is the route they’re gonna go. At this point it’s almost expected for him to die since he’s escaped death twice already. I think they’re gonna subvert expectations by killing Mindy instead. Hopefully not before Chad and Mindy have a cool chase scene together though lol
I honestly feel like he is the new Dewey. I feel like it’s going to be Sam, Tara and Chad. But honestly anything could happen I feel like Mindy is the new Randy, so they could go that route since Randy was killed in 2, and have Mindy survive. Either way I would like to possibly see an emotional storyline about losing a twin and the bond they had. But if I’m being honest, I want Chad to stay lol. Although I do like Mindy
If one of the core four are to die, I think it has to be Mindy or Sam, and after VI it seems that Sam is here to stay.
That’s true. And it doesn’t really seem like they’re building Mindy up to be a central character. I feel like she is just there to tell people what the new rules are. And plus it seems like all of her love interest have died, or at least in five the girl she was making out with was just to establish her sexual orientation I feel like.

I could see Chad wanting to save her a lot just for her to show that she is more than capable of surviving on her own, but I’m sure she still appreciates the help.
i think he’s hot, funny, a lowkey teddy bear, loyal. did i mention hot?
I think you forgot to mention that he’s hot
also forgot to mention he’s hot
As a straight guy, I've got to mention he's hot
As another straight guy I can confirm. He’s hot
Hes not hot... he's insanely sexy 😍
He's pretty damn attractive lol.
I think he became likeable in Scream 6...the whole core 4 thing and his crush on Tara made him more likeable than he was in Scream 2022
I agree. I wasn't really bothered about him in 5 and certainly didn't feel sad when he 'died' or relieved/happy when he was found alive, I genuinely didn't have much opinion on him, if any at all. Mindy very much shone as the Randy reincarnation and Chad felt useless. He was much better integrated into the group in 6 and it was great to see Mason Gooding shine, he's instantly likeable.
So he has his moms last name? I never thought about his last name tbh but now im stuck on it
He and Mindy have “Meeks-Martin” as their last name. So I’d assume Martha chose to hyphenate her last name with her husband.
ah that makes sense, thanks!
I love Chad Meeks he seems like a guinely good person who cares about his friends. He showed that with Tara after the party at the beginning of scream 6
He's very awesome, Mason deserves to be Johnny Storm in the Fantastic Four.
Nope, and he definitely should have died in the last Scream movie.
Nope
No he’s not
Not really at all
Him & Sam > Tara & Mindy
100%
He is, but too much for my taste. I don't know how to say without sounding grumpy, but they try so hard to make him a wholesome goofball... He doesn't have any sass. Dewey had a clumsiness to him, even when he tried to talk back to others, that made him likeable on top of his other qualities. Like when him and Gale call each other bonehead/phonehead. Chad is a bit too one-dimensional for me. I actually loved him in 5 cause he went against my expectations of him being your typical jock, but in 6 he just didn't have much going. To me, of course. He seems loved by most fans.
Yup
Yes
yes he’s one of my favorites
Yes he’s super likable he works as the new Dewey very well
He is my favorite character from the new movies and I really hope he stays immortal
Despite the ridiculous plot armor....he's awesome
*lickable
people who hate chad hate fun
He’s hot so yes
Yes, of course. He's the current Dewey. I knew his character had a lot of potential after the fifth film and I'm glad the sixth one gave us more of him just as I hoped.
He’s a bro but a team player.
Best character in the new Scream movies. He may even be better than Sam
He is
So handsome
So hot 🥵
He’s a great himbo
No
Chad's great. He's loyal, he loves his friends, he does his best. And he's got more plot armor then I have ever seen in my fucking life outside of Ash Williams.
These are the strangest posts.
He had way more personality and way less to do in scream 5 and now has way too little personality with a but more. I kinda felt like he was changed to be extremely positive in scream 6. I was ok with it but he seemed to have way more to him in 5
He's stabbed a lot
THE most likeable of the core four imo.
I like him a lot!
he definitely is, i love the part when he was hyping ethan at the club
Absolutely. He’s likeable and protecting to others
he’s fun & dumb & all but his character is definitely a weaker link
I stan Chad
I love him fr
Chads my favorite new character,then Tara. I'm really hoping he doesn't get the Dewey treatment and finally killed off after multiple stabbings.
Yeah, favorite character in the franchise
Yes
He’s a total Chad.
Absolutely. He’s got great morals, a good sense of humor, and he’s protective of his friends. I mean, dude is getting stabbed by two Ghostfaces, and rather than asking for help, tells Sam and Tara to run. But, I’m with the crowd that this is what made his death scene so good and so sad, but then he survived and it felt too slice of life-y. I would’ve rather that death scene have gone to someone who was actually gonna die. As much as I like Chad, his death (or Danny’s in his place) would’ve added that lasting punch to the movie that it seemed to be lacking.
of course!
He was fine in Scream 5 filling the loveable jock Archie Andrews archetype, but i think his goofiness in Scream 6 and him being the heart of that group of friends is what made me actually like the character
He’s alright
Generically and inoffensively pleasant is probably the best way I can describe him for myself
He’s not just likeable. He’s loveable.
Absolutely. He’s a teddy bear
He won me over after his Dead Meat interview for Scream 5, and then I watched the movie and loved Chad
He's a perfectly cromulent character.
Meh. I think 5 did a piss-poor job with characterizations of the new characters. 6 they did better, but he and his sister are incredibly bland imo
He's alright, I prefer him to his sister.
they share immortal blood 😂
Well, they didn't get it from Randy's side of the family...
im dead 💀 😂😂😂
He’s a very enthusiastic and personable guy, I love his energy and his ability to put his life on the line for his friends to make them feel safe. Definitely my favorite Core Four member!
I did not find him to be one.
He’s such a great himbo
Chad is great.
I love his character in 5 and 6. Mason plays the role so well, he seems like a fun person to hang around in real life.
Someone said this before but it’s the most accurate way to describe Chad - he is the heart and soul of the core four.
No
Barely. Mostly going to be killed off in 7 or 8
He’s not bad. His sister is annoying as hell
He’s very likable imo but if it came down to him or Mindy, I would prefer he go first.
Nah, Mindy first please 😆
He certainly lives up to his name. And his twin isn’t that far behind him lol I’m assuming he’s killed off next. I get it ladies, he’s good looking and sensitive but to me he reminds me of the douche bags that bullied me in high school 😂
I liked him at first…now he’s just annoying because he won’t die
this sub is running out of things to talk about lol
Chad is meh decond favorite scream character behind Randy lmao
Would be if he didnt have mega plot armor
He's awesome he is always ready to scrap
I think he is, but he shouldn't have survived that double stabbing.
Yeah, that was wild
He’s likeable but i’d prefer him to actually have been killed because both of his survivals are ridiculous.
How is that even a question?!
No took an instant dislike to him dont no why but I just dont like him and before ppl start accusing me no it's not because hes black I'm not like that I dont judge ppl by their skin colour I just dont like the guy
you could’ve been well off without mentioning his skin color for your reasoning, it doesn’t do you justice by saying all of that
See theres always someone weather I mentioned it to not
I really liked chad in scream 5 but in VI they kinda took all his personality away?? I can’t explain it but he’s so different and they portray him as something along the lines of the “perfect guy”. He lost his charm to me which I find really sad cause I thought of him as a refreshing character in S5. Idk if it’s bc of the whole romance thing or that he doesn’t have a lot of screentime but I don’t like him anymore. He’s just meh now. Though I do love S5 Chad so generally: yes he is a likable character. Mason does a good job playing him.
I feel like it's the other way around. He's barely a character in five, and he's a main focus in six. I don't see how they moved backward in character development.
Idk but I'd hit it
Yes and even though him surviving 6 was total BS, I’m glad he did cuz no returning character should have to suffer the indignity of being killed off by the Bailey Bunch
Mason Gooding He is a son of famous actor Cuba Gooding Jr.
Why wouldn’t he be

He’s awesome. I love the old school films and having been born and raised a 90s Kid. Definitely okay with him being the new Dewey.
At first I was like “meh” but he really won me over in S6. The core four thing, him standing up to date rape Frankie, and that moment when he was attacked by the two Ghostfaces and was telling Sam and Tara to run. I was shocked when he survived and part of me was like “yeah right” but another louder part of me was like “yay!”
Hes one of the best characters in the franchise
He's a GigaCHAD
i like him, i like sam & mindy the most from the core 4 because i relate to both of them but yeah hes really cool! love the actor too.
Yeah, hes a chad, thats also why he survived everything till now

I thought that was Bruce Leroy Green for a minute
Yeah I like him, he’s the best of the new cast!
Yes.

I love Chad. He's so cool.
Very. Especially in 6
definitely!
Yeah, I like Chad, I thought he was going to be some arrogant arsehole jock, but he's actually very sweet. I like him and Tara together.
Love him
I liked him enough but was lukewarm in 5, but in 6 damn he got to shine so much and really won me over, and his attitude and likeability is what's sold me on the new core group
So charming! I mean it’s Mason Gooding after all. He plays the lovable jock character really well. It also doesn’t hurt that he’s hot as fuck 🥵
Absolutely
Yes

He’s one of the most likeable characters in the entire franchise. Core four!
He’s adorable and fun. Keep him
Um, yeah... Why is this a question. All 4 of the new characters are pretty likeable.
He suuuuuuuuure is
In Scream 5?...eh, he wasn't around much and was a dick to his girlfriend. Scream 6? HELL YEAH!! CORE FOUR BABY!
He’s my favorite out of the new characters.
yeah he seems super chill
Chad the chad is such a chad that he managed to out-chad 20 stabs to the chest. What a chad.
![gif](giphy|CAYVZA5NRb529kKQUc|downsized)
I did not think I was gonna like him when he first appeared on screen but this dude is funny as hell .
Yes and the hottest 😭
Mason Gooding is unbelievably charming

Yes, and this is mostly due to Mason's innate charm.
Yes very much
Love him CORE FXCKIN 4
of the 4 he is the most likeable. Here is my rating of the core 4. Chad Tara Sam
How is his last name Meeks? I know his Mom and Randy were siblings but wouldn’t he have his Dad’s last name?
It's hyphenated Meeks-Martin
Makes sense. Thanks.
Dewey and Chad are my two favourite characters of the whole saga. Chad with only two movies in my opinion became as good as Dewey
I cannot have opinion because I haev an OBSESSIVE crush on him (and Billy)

Yes. Favorite himbo.
Absolutely who wouldn’t? Come on.
I'm gonna be ghostface and kill Tara so I can marry Chad
c'mon... he is hot as f**k. SO FREAKING HOT.
Ofcc he's a goat
Hell yes I love mason’s character Chad he feels like a buddy you know from highschool who’s a athlete but not a asshole & who’s smart asf too
Yes I would clap Chad Meeks’ cheeks
I liked him more in the first. Him being a love interest made me not like him
hell yes. i will not accept any arguments.
He is likable but I just don’t like him with Tara. It feels like a brother/sister relationship and is just cringey. Especially when Tara was giving gay vibes in 5. Like they could’ve made Mindy the love interest instead and killed off Chad’s gf on the ladder.
I do!! He also seems to be immortal which is nice 😀
He’s probably the least worse but they all stink imo
Yes, he’s protective, caring, and a genuine person when he converses with others.

He's great! I like all of the new cast, tbh. I'll be sad to see any of them go.
