My biggest GB question that always bugged me was, they were totally broke right? So why the hell did they spend part of Ray's mortgage loan on a god damned arcade machine for their second level living area? You really only see it when "this fine meal here represents the...last of the petty cash", but I never understood why they'd spend money they didn't have on drat Donkey Kong machine I think?

It fits in pretty well with how they were spending their money. Ray buys the old busted ambulance. Ray is all too excited about the old run-down firehouse and ruins the negotiations. It would make perfect sense that he would go out and buy a Donkey Kong machine if he saw one for sale.

Ray didn't give a poo poo.

Shouldn't this be L. Tulley and D. Barrett? Or V. Clortho and Zuul or something? Didn't they know Louis' name?

When they bring Louis into the firehouse they don't know who he is at first, he just keeps calling himself the Keymaster.

He calls himself Vince Clortho but Janine very quickly gets his name from his ID. They keep calling him Vince to humor him because he's bonkers.

The fact they would have had to pre-animate it and Rick would have to get the timing down perfectly is even more impressive.

Edit: Janine's computer in the first GB is a DEC Rainbow 100, first released in 1982. They also appeared in Beverly Hills Cop, The Philadelphia Experiment, Buckaroo Banzai and Tales from the Darkside - Season 1, Episode 5, "Mookie and Pookie", all from 1984. Also Egon wired it up wrong!
http://starringthecomputer.com/computer.php?c=28
There were ad campaigns for the Rainbow 100 on TV so it wasn't incredibly widespread but it would have been fairly well known for a few years before Ghostbusters came out.

Jesus, Mookie and Pookie. Whenever I see Tales from the Darkside it's almost always Mookie and Pookie.

This is an explanation I will accept. I'm now adding that arcade machine to the list of poo poo Ray can't help himself from getting/doing.

Couldn't understand any of it, but it looks like a way better edited trailer than the one we got.

Clearly Chris Pine is the key to all of this working. Men really are better. Go men. Boo women.

My cousin is absolutely heartbroken at this trailer (growing up in the late 80s/early 90s, we were Ghostbusters fanatics). The trailer looks like it's going more for sightgags and slapstick as opposed to the more... subtle, I guess(?) Humor of the original.

Also, if there's no William Atherton cameo...

Disappointed sure. It's clearly not what some people wanted (which was apparently a direct beat-for-beat-same-actors-same-as-the-first-one-but-with-new-effects remake).

Heartbroken?

If you have that much stock in a comedy movie from the 80's then I don't know what to tell you. People should not be this emotionally tied to a Sony IP.

No one's childhood is being raped.
No one's rights are being infringed upon.

You can all freely ignore this movie that clearly puts you in emotional distress and go watch the original instead! In fact I recommend that. It's a great movie!

I would rewatch the original Ghostbusters if you thought it wasn't a ton of sightgags and slapstick. Like seriously. The film's subtle moments are great but it features tons of slapstick humor and goofy visuals. Like the entire payoff to the ending is a bunch of scenes of people hilariously covered in marshmallow fluff (including one who manages to avoid most of it inexplicably.) The single most iconic ghost from the show is Slimer who exists to cover people with green mucus. Ghostbusters is not a subtle movie though it does have some fantastic subtle humor.

I mean, compared to this one seeming like it's going for loud and zany, more subtle was the best term I could think of.

I'll take your word for it that she is referring to goo getting into the folds of her labia in this PG-13 rated film.

The reason I do a lot of R-Rated comedies is that you want a movie to feel honest. But the Ghostbusters world doesn’t need that level of swearing. We’ll have to be PG-13 with this one. I would like to make it R-Rated, but I won’t. You want the biggest number of people to watch it and not be put off by it.

Get Real is the run I just finished! Now I'm going back to the previous volumes.

Esp since the new run International mentions a Chicago branch that I haven't heard of before.

You know you didn't have to go post that, right?
But it's fine, I guess...

You just keep being you!

Faiiiiiirly sure it's more like the term "in every nook and cranny", which has multiple alternatives like "crook and cranny". Some people may even say "crack and cranny".

I guess it always comes to butts for goons, right?

To throw my screaming into the wind, the only thing I don't like from the trailer is the stereotypical "sassy black woman". But, hey, I'll have to wait to see the movie to find out if that aspect is as bad as I worry.

Not to mention general lowbrow or silly physical humor





Which isn't a bad thing but I really think people are forgetting Ghostbusters could be fairly loud and physical. The new one looks different but it's also being made decades later. This doesn't mean it will be good but just the mere fact it's loud and flamboyant doesn't mean it is bad either, especially since subtle humor rarely plays well in trailers.

I mean I'll point out the Ghostbusters trailer (while I think legitimately better than the new trailer but that is tinged by knowing the context of the jokes) isn't exactly a laugh-a-minute or the best conveying of the film. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vntAEVjPBzQ
