Anyone who loves happening across Carrie Fisher cameos and guest appearances will fondly remember this one from Scream 3 back in 2000. Co-starring Courteney Cox, Neve Campbell and David Arquette, the film made an impressive $160m off a $40m budget but to fans of the GFFA this scene, partly written by Carrie and featuring her as Bianca Burnette, a former actress who lost out on the role of Princess Leia to Carrie Fisher, is the real winner.
