I still say that I have absolutely no issue with this.  It has absolutely no bearing on my enjoyment of the original and more or less than the sub-par sequel did.  I can still watch Ghostbusters and enjoy it.

 

I will go see this, as a separate film and gonna say probably quite enjoy it.

 

No jimmies being ruffled!

I don't see the point of altering franchises with established storylines, lore, and characters and forcing women into them for the sake of fulfilling progressives and their idiotic obsession with "diversity" (code for "we hate straight white men and want them out of everything"). Retconning stories and altering them just makes films boring, predictable, and cheap.

I personally have no problem with the inclusion of women in films, in fact women have been appearing in films for decades. But at least do the actresses the decency of an original story.

yeah rebooting a classic franchise that didn't need rebooting sounds like it's destined to fail or at least flop at the box office sales.

 

they should've just carried on with gb3 and used some cgi to do a egon ghost in the plot as a tribute, surely they could've got someone to voice him.

 

to me this movie sounds bad, but like you, i have no issue with women in movies, but the cast is really a bad choice.

Looks ok to me.  So is this still not a sequel?  While the footage doesn't make it seem like it, the intro does.  I'm confused.

I have no idea either. I quite enjoyed the trailer after 20+ viewings. OH! and there's more! BTS stuff!

The trailer gives me me very mixed feelings.

 

one one hand, the ghosts look great, BUT that's also the problem.  They look too good, in a very uncharacteristic statement from me, There's too much CGI and the CGI is too good. it doesn't look like ghostbusters. 

 

The old classic animatronic and film trick ghosts had a feel to them that made them seem "realistic" in their way. these just look like really awesome CGI. and not the nice gritty real ghosts of ghostbusters. 

 

on top of that. the trailer gives the whole story away, and the whole story is basically a line by line retelling of the original movie. down to the token black "guy" and "his" role. 

 

They simply replaced the characters with women and placed it 30 years in the future and apparently everyone forgot that ghosts even existed in those 30 years... smh.... why... 

 

I'll watch, it. but it's definitely not going to be a classic.
