I am not gonna bitch and moan about reboots as I have nothing against them in principal.

I am not going to suggest that Hollywood owes me anything based upon my own personal nostalgic investment in the original movies.

I simply have no desire to watch this.

Exactly. The reason Hollywood does keep making reboots is people are going to watch them, and they're spending good money to do so. Hollywood is a business and making money is the proinciple point of business.

 

I'm also not entitled to anything, Hollywood hasn't directly made me any promises, they don't owe me anything. If they reboot or even if they do a GB3, it takes nothing away from the original two movies (yes, i even enjoyed the second one). Those movies remain unchanged and a great nostalgic treat.

 

All the bitching and moaning could mean that the best movie to ever come out might never be made. It's not to much of a stretch to think it could be a good movie.

We just have to wait and see what happens, and if the movie turns out to be utter crap, then just don;t go and see it.

 

I can see why people get upset, but that;s only because they let it.

Kate and Leslie are pretty good on SNL. Kristen Wiig may be decent if she doesn't go over the top on her acting like she tends to do. Melissa McCarthy however...that one I wish they had avoided...

Just because they're funny in one thing doesn't mean they belong in another.

I don't like that this is a reboot, and I don't like any of these choices for casting.

That's just my opinion, but I have no interest in this film at all now. I'd rather they never make another Ghostbusters than this.

hrmm interesting to see how this one plays out,  a reboot of such a popular classic with a bizzaire all feminine twist;  if this is bad enough it might shock Hollywood into easing the break peddles on all these unnecessary reboots.  Alternatively at the other end you can also imagine the critic narrative being hijacked and any negative commentary on this or comparisons to the original must mean you hate women zzz.

Going to watch it ion the theater just to spite all the hateful asses here and everywhere else

 

Cast looks OK, not sure why suddenly you all hate funny ladies, would prefer an original story tho. But if Murray is still attached to the project, it can't be all that bad

At this point Murray is a bad joke himself. In reality this whole movies existence is probably credited to Murray trolling someone and it then getting turned into a real idea.

Faith in humanity gone :(
I was looking forward to this with the original cast 'passing the torch' to a new generation of Ghostbusters, but this plot, this cast? Im sorry but no. And they doing a reboot thats even worse :/
What happened to Dan Ankroids script? Im guessing that got trashed in favour of this version. 
I wont be watching this at the cinema, and the stupid would be lucky if I downloaded it once it hit torrent sites either. I will give this one a clear, wide birth.

    • FotoSketcher Studio 4.30

      By Copernic · Posted

      FotoSketcher Studio 4.30 by Razvan Serea FotoSketcher Studio is a free creative tool that instantly turns your photos into artwork. With just a few clicks, you can apply styles like pencil sketches, watercolor, oil painting, ink drawings, cartoons, and abstract effects. Powerful yet simple sliders let you adjust every detail to match your vision, from subtle enhancements to bold artistic transformations. You can also improve your images with tools for contrast, sharpness, color, and brightness, plus add frames and text. It supports JPEG, PNG (including transparency), BMP, and WebP formats for both opening and exporting. Available for Windows (64-bit) and macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel), FotoSketcher also offers batch processing, manual retouching, and custom effects for advanced users. Completely free, including commercial use, with no ads or spyware. FotoSketcher Studio 4.30 changelog: New LUTs effect In the Photo Lab category you will find a new LUTs (Lookup Tables) effect for custom colour grading. It comes with 18 presets built right into the application (Cinematic, Kodachrome, Golden hour, Portrait and more), each with a live preview so you can see the look before applying it. Right-click the preview to compare with your original image. And if you have your own .cube files, you can load those from disk too. New "Stylize" category Added a brand-new Stylize category with four new effects. Three of them (Mosaic, Circles and Triangles) are built on the same space-filling idea, turning your photo into tiled mosaics, clusters of circles, or a low-poly triangle look. The fourth, Cartoon, is a bit different: it gives a clean graphic style with defined lines and solid colours. A little tip - set the colour intensity to 0 and Cartoon draws a pure outline drawing with no fill. Combined with the "Do not erase background" option, you can run it on top of any other effect to add crisp contours in two quick steps. Auto-Enhance and Full Reset Two small but handy additions. Auto-Enhance (just press E) tries to optimise your source photo - exposure, white balance, local contrast - for a 'dehazed', natural-looking starting point. And Full Reset clears everything back to a clean slate in one step (working image, history, LUT, script, brushes and sliders) without having to close and reopen the program. Press Ctrl+Shift+N, or right-click the exit button. Scripts The script engine has been updated to support all the new effects, with a few new commands and improved help. If you would like some inspiration, the recent scripting tutorial on this blog walks through several ready-made example scripts. The usual improvements The interface now uses new colour accents for better readability, the history gallery has had a few tweaks, and you can now open .webp images directly. On top of that, this release includes some performance improvements and a good number of bug fixes.
