Scream 4 wasn't exactly a box-office blockbuster.

And even before the fourth installment of the horror franchise was released, Courteney Cox told us she was pretty much dunzo with Gale Weathers.

It doesn't sound like she's the only who's moving on from the ghostface killer...

"I don't think there will be any more Screams," David Arquette recently told us at the Samsung Infuse 4G launch party in L.A. "Maybe if they relaunched it with some new people or something..."

As for if he'd even want to come back for more, he said, "I mean, I love doing the movies. I just don't know if there will be any more."

Franchise newbie Aimee Teegarden is a little more optimistic about the possibility of future installments.

"I know that they were talking about doing another trilogy..." she says. But would she return?

"In a heartbeat!" she said. "[Wes Craven]'s such a sweet guy and such a great director, knows exactly what he wants and is just very driven. And I think it's so amazing to understand and get to work with him as an actor."

No we want to hear from you. Is it time to hangup the ghostface killer mask or should Wes Craven try for more? Sound off below.
