I've literally never seen any of the Ghostbusters movies. It was before my time and it was all overwhelmingly merchandised by the time I was a small child. Obviously I've seen a few minutes of the movie here and there over the years flipping through bad channels like FX or whatever.

I already knew about Slimer loves wieners/other memes and the Ghostbusters song they play at Halloween since I was a child so I already 'get' the references and have never felt compelled to see the movie.

New one looks like some BS Hollywood executives threw together with market data only to make a quick buck off of your nostalgia...again. Never mind the all female cast, it looks like a hollow recreation that missed all the points that made the original good.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation. I refuse to see Black Panther because they didn't ask the Black Ranger to be in it.

Yeah it is fine. Nothing really wrong with it but it sure left me wondering what all the hype is about.

Ghostbusters 2 was pretty lovely. I bet the new ghostbusters will be pretty lovely too.

More fun than being able to freak people out IRL by being able to truthfully say I've never seen it? Doubtful.

this is really fun to do. i was never a big movie-watcher, so whenever someone brings up a well-known movie, i always make sure to mention that i've never seen it.

That's the vibe I always got. I made this thread because I saw in another thread a pic of some guy getting threats for refusing to see the new Ghostbusters movie.

I'm pretty sure I played the Ghostbusters (which I didn't see) game along with some other over-licensed mediocre IP games on Sega Channel.

I should play the Ghostbusters game. It's just been sitting in my queue ever since I bought it for 37 cents during a steam sale.
