If it was in an established universe instead of a reboot it could of been really good and of gotten the propper hype.

The women you see spreading tripe and hate are NOT feminists. Don't disregard the many due to the actions of the few.
TextWampa
I'm a feminist and I think it'll suck because it's a shit, unnecessary remake. But cool generalization, broski.
staralixstar
And for every feminist, there will be a man saying it sucked because of the women. Neither side is right. Neither is the majority.
hardytardigrade
And then every neckbeard will blame feminism... oh wait, that happened before the trailer even came out.

Already happening with the trailers. I don't like the women, but they aren't why it's going to suck.

Their GENDER isn't why it's going to suck. Their acting/lines/delivery/comedic style will very much be part of why it sucks.

JaXm
Personally, I liked it. Kind of dumb, to be sure, with some serious deux-ex bullshit. But solid action, and some fun character moments
DrunkSideOfTheMoon
It's like the original: If you go in looking for just a summer blockbuster, you'll like it.
I thought the first was better, if for no other reason than it didn't feel like the main characters were all invincible. Not once through...
... the whole sequel did it feel like any of the protagonists were actually in danger of dying, which kinda made it feel less 'thrilling'.
It's not shakespeare, but for a popcorn actioner, I'd recommend giving it the ol' look-see.

I agree the old Ghostbusters is a C+ film at best. But Paul Feig hasn't failed as a director yet.
LeMorteDRando
C+? Jesus. I'm almost curious what you would consider is an A+ comedy, but I get the feeling you have no sense of humor.
PartyLikeIts1994
Actually, looking at the cast, they have three of the funniest women in Holywood in leading roles, so there's that.
Funny for vagina jokes and "HAHAHA FAT LADY FELL DOWN"
What's not funny about crotches and fat people falling down?
flippywizgig
How is that worse than dick jokes and "HAHAHA FAT GUY FELL DOWN"?

It's not. But Ghostbusters never used that kind of humour.
It isn't, neither are funny

No argument from me. Saw a trailer for the new movie in a theater, and the new movie looks fucking horrible. I mean, the jokes are cringy.
Not to mention the whole thing looks like some exec said, "Just R63 every character so we can say we're 'with the times'" and walked off.

Same. Do people think a movie with female leads is automatically a masterpiece to feminists? Because no. Not in the slightest.
TacticusThrowaway
The official line is that it's only hated because misogyny. So there are feminists in the press defending it.

TheGoodReverendCleophusJamesoftheTripleRockBaptistChurch
Amen! I saw the trailer on netflix, they are relying solely on graphics and jokes instead of a good story. Plus, the cast is not funny.
Dingus2
That describes every mainstream movie since... Well... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_film#/media/File:Le_Voyage_dans_la_lune.jpg
Good story....did you even see the original?
HeckuvaEngineer
Graphics and comedy was pretty much why the first one was made..this one has the graphics, just bad comedy.
Watch the original trailer and tell me you could see "good comedy" from two minutes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vntAEVjPBzQ
Are you serious? This movie was made in Bill Murray's early days and was worth checking out for comedy.
AlltheAnswers
When we first heard this was happening, my husband said that the story should've been that these girls grew up idolizing the original 1/2
That is basically the plot of the Ghostbusters Extreme cartoon, its Ray(paralyzed) and 3 new busters, the leader is even a chick,
Ghostbusters, and they were continuing the work in some fashion. Sequel with new cast would probably work better... 2/2
My husband said the same. Then they could have worked on some cameos with the original cast.
Sageypie
Saw a great idea somebody had where the original cast had actually gone missing. New cast picked up their work and the search for them.
pois1
What about having the original cast dead, as ghosts?
That could be kind of neat as well. Could definitely see Bill Murray as a slimer type of character. Just the ghost who annoys and stuff.
fedoraeuphoria
It's actually your fault since Hollywood just creates what it thinks will sell and you all overwhelming support unoriginal films.
Jakesonyou
Ya I mean, Batman, Star Wars, Star Trek. No one liked those
LeeroyTheBird
Independence Day, Fantastic Four (wasn't great to start, but the reboot...), etc.
Independence Day is a sequel, not a reboot. And it's godawful. Second worst movie I've ever paid to see
hibsta
I was very close to paying to see Fantastic 4, so freaking glad I couldn't get a night off to go watch it
BitchButcher
You forgot Spiderman! Every 5 years a rebooted trilogy with the same story every time (of course)!
Somanyquestions
The Thing (1982), what a terrible reboot no one liked!
I did!
Yeah. but those were not the same movie just remade. It's another episode.
Star Trek movies have been reboots, and so were Nolan's batman films. Granted Nolan rebooted some awfully cheesy 90s crap
dogimo
Well the Star Trek movies are basically just the originals but with some changes made.
Darohan
The Star Wars and Mad Max reboots weren't that bad
Star Wars wasn't a reboot, Abrams just shamelessly stole from New Hope.
WalrusDongle
They're just hijacking the name of Ghostbusters to make a chick/slapstick comedy. Gonna suck

That describes every mainstream movie since... Well... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_film#/media/File:Le_Voyage_dans_la_lune.jpg

Good story....did you even see the original?
HeckuvaEngineer
Graphics and comedy was pretty much why the first one was made..this one has the graphics, just bad comedy.
ILikeToCallItLostWages
Watch the original trailer and tell me you could see "good comedy" from two minutes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vntAEVjPBzQ

Are you serious? This movie was made in Bill Murray's early days and was worth checking out for comedy.

When we first heard this was happening, my husband said that the story should've been that these girls grew up idolizing the original 1/2
MrtheOffender
That is basically the plot of the Ghostbusters Extreme cartoon, its Ray(paralyzed) and 3 new busters, the leader is even a chick,

Ghostbusters, and they were continuing the work in some fashion. Sequel with new cast would probably work better... 2/2
flippywizgig
My husband said the same. Then they could have worked on some cameos with the original cast.

Saw a great idea somebody had where the original cast had actually gone missing. New cast picked up their work and the search for them.

What about having the original cast dead, as ghosts?
Sageypie
That could be kind of neat as well. Could definitely see Bill Murray as a slimer type of character. Just the ghost who annoys and stuff.

It's actually your fault since Hollywood just creates what it thinks will sell and you all overwhelming support unoriginal films.

Ya I mean, Batman, Star Wars, Star Trek. No one liked those
LeeroyTheBird
Independence Day, Fantastic Four (wasn't great to start, but the reboot...), etc.
CthuluIsMyHomie
Independence Day is a sequel, not a reboot. And it's godawful. Second worst movie I've ever paid to see
hibsta
I was very close to paying to see Fantastic 4, so freaking glad I couldn't get a night off to go watch it
BitchButcher
You forgot Spiderman! Every 5 years a rebooted trilogy with the same story every time (of course)!
Somanyquestions
The Thing (1982), what a terrible reboot no one liked!
Jakesonyou
I did!
terryr
Yeah. but those were not the same movie just remade. It's another episode.
CthuluIsMyHomie
Star Trek movies have been reboots, and so were Nolan's batman films. Granted Nolan rebooted some awfully cheesy 90s crap
dogimo
Well the Star Trek movies are basically just the originals but with some changes made.
Darohan
The Star Wars and Mad Max reboots weren't that bad
CthuluIsMyHomie
Star Wars wasn't a reboot, Abrams just shamelessly stole from New Hope.
WalrusDongle
They're just hijacking the name of Ghostbusters to make a chick/slapstick comedy. Gonna suck

the problem is the consumer(s) of goods and services, not the producer :(
Imthedudeplayinthedudedisguisedasanotherdude
How so?
Jarjarthejedi
If people didn't buy rebooted junk we wouldn't get so much rebooted junk.
Imthedudeplayinthedudedisguisedasanotherdude
That makes sense. Thank you!
