Oh...

 

I don't know what to think of this now after watching the trailer. 

 

Hmmm...I have a strong urge to go back and watch Stranger Things for some reason.

God I really need to get around to watching Stranger Things. It's been on my list for awhile but I keep getting distracted by other shows lol

I thought the same thing. Given the success of Stranger Things and the first IT film, this could do fairly well.

Kids? I'm not sure I agree but it can't be any worse than the last attempt. Right???

I think the kids are just part of it.   They don't want to try and give too much away.

last movie was a bad reboot.

 

This actually looks interesting and entertaining. It makes sense in a way since this is back in the original universe; these kids seem like they're the grand-kids of the original members, or at least one of them is; and they stumbled across where the originals had stashed their gear after retiring.

Some of them are directly related to Egon, which is a nice way to still have him play a part even thought he's not around anymore.  So yeah, this is pretty much a direct sequel with a future handoff to new characters.  We'll see how it goes because they're pretty young, and yeah, those proton packs aren't suppose to be light, no way kids can do it.  Who knows how they'll pull it off though?

I'm looking forward to it. I'm guessing Bill Murray comes back as a ghost, and I'm HOPING we get Egon and Slimer ghosts.

Just going on the fact that they didn't reveal the old cast yet.  :)

Yeah, he either returns as a ghost or an old grandpa together with Dan Acroyd.... either way, looking forward to it! Definitely going to the local theater to see this.

Is there a release date yet? I'm not watching the trailer as I want as much of this movie to be a surprise as possible. 

end of the trailer states November so it's going to be this year at least (Y)

Thoughts?  I saw it last night and liked it... some great easter eggs and fan service.  The story needed some work, but was enjoyable overall.  

Sara and I were at the mall, and I said on a whim lets go see Ghostbusters, but when I got there and asked for 2 tickets, he said they don't' have any two seats together as it was sold out.

    • We had no idea as kids how much time and energy it took to be an adult 😅
    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval by David Uzondu Image via @realDonalTrump (X) As OpenAI prepares the release of its next model, GPT 5.6, the White House has instructed the company to limit the distribution of the software to a small group of government-approved partners instead of the general public, as it has done with previous releases. According to The Information, OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman sent an internal memo to staff on Thursday explaining that the federal government will approve access "customer by customer" during an initial preview phase. Altman noted in the communication that this restrictive rollout is "not [their] long-term model" for software deployment, and the company plans to work toward a "more sustainable" distribution method later. CNN said that both OpenAI and the Trump administration view the capabilities of GPT 5.6 on the same level as Anthropic's Mythos and that government officials intend to "collaborate with frontier AI labs to develop shared approaches for addressing the challenges of scaling this technology." The latest restriction comes just weeks after the US Commerce Department decided to restrict Fable, a version of Mythos with extra safety "guardrails" to prevent users from exploiting software vulnerabilities. Not long after the release, though, researchers at Amazon found a way to bypass these restrictions, prompting an aggressive response from federal authorities. The government ordered Anthropic to cut off access for non-US citizens located outside the US, non-US citizens living inside the US, and incredibly, even Anthropic's own foreign-born employees. Anthropic now appears to be building a workaround to resolve this compliance block with an update to its Privacy Policy that introduces a category called "Verification Data" to handle KYC and Digital IDs. This setup could mandate digital identity checks to filter users by nationality, requiring a government-issued ID and facial biometric data. Who knows? Maybe in the future, you would have to scan your US Passport or State ID to prove your citizenship before you are allowed to chat with Fable 5 (or any other model).
    • When Windows 7 was released I created an AutoHotkey script that uses Alt+` as a keyboard shortcut to move a window across monitors. I have been using that script for over 15 years and this is the first time I have come across another app that uses the same shortcut!
    • I called it last year that they wouldn't end support when they said there would. There are too many people still on Windows 10 waiting for something better to upgrade to and 11 ain't it! The recent promises of fixing Windows 11's many problems is nice, but unless they deliver on those promises in a big way then I expect customers will still want to stick with 10.
