I mostly go by the belief that Ghostbusters 1 was a pretty good, reasonably memorable comedy, the second wasn't that great but was okay it didn't need to rebooted and and any reboot regardless of cast was probably gonna be bad, and i'm probably gonna be right like if they really are remaking Alien with a dude, that's gonna suck just by virtue of being a modern reboot of a franchise that was originally good because a unique combination of talents brought together at the right time that cannot likely be replicated

Gostbusters was good because of the theme song, the actors, and some good cinematography and design that made it memorable. also historically because it was one of the first big 'summer movies' and was relevant at the time. like most 80s snl crew movies the plot is paper-thin but nobody cares Ghostbusters 2 was pretty bad, with a handful of good parts. mostly bad, though. new ghostbusters will probably be boring and bad and nobody will care (except the studio lol). even the actors already seem pretty checked out from the start new aliens will suck because aliens was like the citizen kane of 80s action movies and its been so heavily copied its going to be hard to do anythign that doesnt now come off as trite

They are literally just selling childhood back to 40 year olds, I don't think there's any real attempt at film making here. This thing is put together by scientists and market analysts to extract maximum dollar per memory unit. Of course the logo is the end bad guy. It had to be that or the Marshmallow Man or Slimer. What else could it be? Nostalgia doesn't work well when you mix it up with new characters or ideas. It will be considered a success and there will be sequels and predictable video game tie ins. This movie will make a fat profit and the merchandising will be very lucrative. Lego Ghostbusters (original and new) is practically a given. Every mom will want a coffee mug with sassy buster's famous catchphrase "Suck My Hairy Box You Shitcock Ghostball".

Just another reason to question why they feel the need to remake it, female leads or no. Apart from FRANCHISE CASH for the studio obviously.

imo this is a pretty good rundown on what made the original GB good http://commentarama.blogspot.ca/2009/08/film-friday-ghostbusters-1984.html there's no reason a movie built around a bunch of broads can't have the same but lol that would take talent and effort and why bother when your product is critic-proof by design

Yeah they've been doing teaser trailers or pre-launch campaigns before the actual trailer comes out for decades now. Here's one from 1978: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65GVp8fErGI These days the actual trailers are such big news (or the production houses try to convince everyone that they're big news) that they tease the trailer release dates

That article is a joking response to how few female movie characters get toys. There were hardly any made of Rey from Episode 7 for instance.

I think the main problem was that Finn got the lightsabre while Rey had the stick. It was mostly bitching for the sake of it.

They should remake The Thing for the fourth time, only with a whole female cast. The monster should obviously do nothing but sprout dicks.
