I'm kinda bummed that this awesome thread is now marred by this really. Also say all you want about a trailer being badly edited but "aw hell naw, the devil is a liar (?), that's gonna leave a mark, the power of patty compels you" is just plain not funny.

As a grown man who almost bought a Terrifying Toilet Ghostbusters figure over the weekend, I liked the new trailer. I'm not expecting them to compete with the original. Just have some heart, and it looks like they have it. I'm also happy to see that the black woman is practically Winston. I know it's not progressive, but I don't find it offensive that the black people in these movies are the normal human beings to play off the nearly autistic white folks.

Death By The Blues posted:Man I am just tired of the same flat clean look in practically every blockbuster film. I just want some depth or shadows in my frame. Also, I do like the idea of neon blue ghosts but man it is the most unoriginal neon ghosts you could come up with. This is the main issue I had with the trailer. The cinematography just feels so boring and uninspired, especially compared to Kovacs work in the original.

cat doter posted:the reason they're lovely about this particular film means supporting it is important, none of us know if we'll like the film before seeing it, impressions and reviews can only speak about someone's personal reaction to it, so if the impetus to see a movie is "this movie features prominent roles for women and I want to support that" then who cares because that's a good loving reason This Ghostbusters Cash-In is Really Important. These Disney Princesses are wearing raw denim and the results might be shockingly important.

It was a lovely trailer. It's apparent that the weakest parts of the movie are the lazy, cheesy dialogue and the ham-fisted physical comedy. I hope the visual effects and the story line can fill the void. Kate McKinnon is very talented with accents and impressions and we've seen what she can do with the right material and cast (Casablanca, Long Island Medium, Carol). SNL became unwatchable after Mike Myers left and she's the reason I came back after 20 years. SNL is still generally awful and if this trailer is a true synopsis of the movie, I have a feeling I'll watch it like l watch SNL: scanning for Holtzmann and ignoring the rest. If you can't get enough of that gun-licking, SNL does strike gold once in awhile https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6-QG-rFf4po

The downvote situation on the trailer is about how you'd expect it to be: There's currently 56,849 comments but apparently Sony have been busy deleting the worst ones. Edit: oh hey I wonder if anyone has made a reaction video to the new trailer yet ...

The whole colorfulness of it bothered me. It's just the wrong filming style to "feel" like ghostbusters... their stuff is supposed to look and feel cobbled together. It's "unlicensed nuclear accelorator" that was cobbled together... now it has a tron like gun that pops out of it?!? WTF. I'm a Millennial that grew up with those movies because my dad loved Harold Ramis and the whole thing just feels wrong. Like I saw someone else say this is not Bridesmaids with ghosts!

Because of how much the trailer references the original movie, a lot of my friends think this movie is a flat out sequel. That's a shame.

If it was an authentic reboot I could almost understand it then. They'll make more money (or at least think they can) by catering to children and adults tagging along because "it's Ghostbusters"... and probably women who would never go see the original Ghostbusters if it was released now. Since they glaringly are putting it in the same universe it doesn't make sense. The original characters were considered hacks in academia. Venkman was openly considered a shyster. Stantz was the kind of weirdo teaching absurd history courses at a Community College. The stupid whiz-bang pistols coming out of the proton pack just irks me so much. Spengler and Venkman were afraid of their own tools... why would 30 years later we have some tron crap on them?

Because it's not 1984, technology and culture have changed, and the new film being more reflective of 1984 than 2016 would be dumb and a waste of everybody's time and money.

The "30 years ago they saved the city" is non-diegetic; it's directed at the audience. It's saying "Yes, we know you're only interested in this movie because it says "Ghostbusters", so here it is." One of the main characters in this movie gets kicked out of their teaching position because they wrote about how ghosts might exist. That makes no sense in a world where ghosts invaded New York City twice.

Does 2016 have more in common with 1984 or Tron? They could have made the packs slim and small. I actually like how the proton streams are vivid and seem less unstable. I think storywise if the smart one was a kid from Spengler's experiments who followed all his stuff later in life would be perfect. She built the packs to improve on his "garage" type hacks. I don't mind the scenes where it seems they're outside one of their places. It makes it seem like the second Ghostbusters. There's just some glaring "Ewok" type poo poo that is bugging the crap out of me and right now it's those stupid pistols.

Eh, there's also been a bunch of recent remakes that got sequels: Clash of the Titans, Halloween, The Hills Have Eyes, Journey to the Center Of The Earth and The Ring all got sequels and Planet of the Apes and the Texas Chainsaw Massacre* both got prequels. Upcoming remake sequels include Alice Through the Looking Glass and Journey 3: From the Earth to the Moon. * They subsequently ignored the new TCM films and made another sequel to the original TCM and there'll also be a prequel to the original this year.

Those are horror franchises with niche audiences when compared to something like Ghostbusters. You're making the mistake of assuming that the movie has to be really good to successfully launch a new Ghostbusters franchise, when really it just has to not be aggressively terrible. Enough people will see this on opening weekend alone to justify a sequel, the budget is around $150 million, so you know its going to at least double that. And that would probably be a worst case scenario.
