A special makeup-effects man working with "Tyson" on the set of Stab 3 is named Stan, a possible reference to legendary makeup-FX man Stan Winston. The house used during the climax, where most of the killing takes place, is the same house used as a school in Halloween H20: Twenty Years Later (1998). The empty cinematographer's chair on the "Stab 3" set has the name of the actual Scream 3 (2000) cinematographer, Peter Deming. Throughout the movie the actors and actresses complain about the rewrites and the three different scripts for "Stab 3". These complaints actually originated with the cast of Scream 3, because of frequent rewrites and three different endings. Gale mentions Jennifer's relationship with Brad Pitt. Courtney Cox's "Friends" (1994) costar Jennifer Aniston was married to Brad Pitt. Set a record in its opening weekend for number of screens in the U.S.: 3,467 (later surpassed by Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (2001) with 3,762). Jay and Silent Bob, the popular drug dealer characters from Kevin Smith's movies, appear as tourists visiting Sunrise Studios who spot Gale Weathers and mistake her for Connie Chung. Director Cameo: [Wes Craven] can be seen dressed as a tourist walking behind Jay and Silent Bob, outside the "Stab 3" set. The Nick Cave song "Red Right Hand" is played in all three of the movies. During the studio tour, the tour guide mention's that the next stop on the tour is the set of Seinfeld. Patrick Warburton, who plays Steven Stone in the movie, was famous for role as David Puddy on Seinfeld. During Randy's taped message to Sydney, Dewey and Gale, he refers to the Star Wars trilogy. Carrie Fisher, who played Princess Leia in the Star Wars trilogy, has a cameo in the movie as Bianca, the studio archive keeper. Lance Henriksen's director character shares the same name as the famous 17th century English poet John Milton, best known for his poem Paradise Lost. In Paradise Lost, Satan deceives Adam and Eve to choose temptation over God's Eden. Their decision leaves them expelled from Eden, forever corrupted. "Paradise Lost" suggests the debate concerning whether it is better to be bad than good. Director John Milton in Scream 3 dupes Maureen Prescott into believing that she can become successful in Hollywood by performing sexual favors. In a similar fashion as Adam and Eve, she loses her innocence to false promises of grandeur, receiving only bit parts in Milton's films. As a result of her corruption by Milton, Maureen Prescott fully embraces promiscuity as evident by the Scream trilogy storyline. Slipknot's "Wait and Bleed" is on the soundtrack. Slipknot is known for wearing masks. The bathroom Sidney finds Angelina in on the set of "Stab 3" is the same bathroom used when Sidney is attacked in the original Scream. You can tell by position of doors and soap dispenser design. Neve Campbell made a deal which stated that she could have been on set just for 20 days, which is also why she isn't as predominant a character as she is in the other films. Throughout the film Sydney can be seen to be wearing the Greek letters around her neck that were given to her by her boyfriend Derrick, in Scream 2, shortly before he was killed. Between Scream 2 and Scream 3, David Arquette and Courteney Cox (two of the four actors who feature in all the Scream movies) got married. They met on the set of the first movie, were an item whilst shooting the second and by the third they were married. Courteney added 'Arquette' to the end of her name, as can be seen in the credits. Courteney Cox and David Arquette had to cut their honeymoon short to begin filming Scream 3. Kate Winslet, Shannen Doherty and Charisma Carpenter were all close contenders for the part of Christine. Kelly Rutherford got the part. The green outfit worn by Parker Posey while on set is the same one worn by Courtney Cox in the first movie. All sets for "Stab 3" were replicas of the originals since the sets were destroyed after Scream wrapped. David Arquette (Dwight 'Dewey' Riley), Neve Campbell (Sidney Prescott), Courtney Cox (Gale Weathers), Jamie Kennedy (Randy Meeks) and Liev Schreiber (Cotton Weary) are the only actors (and characters) to appear in all Scream films. The film features cameos by Heather Matarazzo, Carrie Fisher, Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes, the latter two as Jay and Silent Bob. Compared to its two predecessor, the film used the least amount of artificial blood. Scream used 50 gallons of artificial blood, Scream 2 used 30 gallons, and Scream 3 used as little as 10 gallons.
