I don't think a "passing the torch to an all-female Ghostbusters team" would have been a bad idea. But this whole thing is such a transparent cash grab wrapped up with a lovely dose of pandering to SJWs and feminist propaganda, it seems 100% unlikely the movie will be even moderately entertaining to most Miscers. Unless they just wanna watch it and talk sh!t about all the over the top acting and jokes falling flat over beers with other people who have moderate to good taste and above.

Sadly this won't be a complete bomb. Enough clueless middle aged people will see it just because they see Melissa McCarthy on the poster even though they were never big Ghostbusters fans. You know, the kind of people who paid to watch Tammy, Identity Thief, and whatever dreck she's been in and turned out mildly successful.

Never watch a movie directed by Paul Feig

Just watch how all the reviews rate it positively and all the audience ratings at 0%.
One critic labelled it "the movie of the summer".
Journalistic ethics, pushing agendas etc all came out during Gamergate and nothing has changed. You cannot believe any media whatsoever because they are either all bought or pushing their own agendas.

I was there too and i loved everything ghostbusters that was in the 80's. The movie legit scared me as a kid, then i grew into seeing it when i was abit older and i favored peter venkman. i could not get enough of him or the guys, who seemed like real friends that worked and hung out together. ego, winston ray were also awesome
then came the cartoons

this was my chit. i had all the toys, the tie in cereals and even the ecto cooler with slimer on it

I literally fell in love with this franchise as a kid. dont get me started on the fukin toys.
the ghostbusting was cool as was the characters that filled out the team. that , essentially , is why it worked then. I'm sure if they had a frame by frame remake with 4 other guys , it would fall flat because theres only 1 bill murray for example
this chit here that is being forced into theaters by sjw's hasnt got the same feel over all and is being used as propaganda for political reasons.
the film makers went out and said guys like me, the man babies who loved the movie, are haters for not loving this movie. They alienated the people that made it possible for this to even be a franchise then goaded people into thinking that if they dont support it they are sexist.
i hope it fails so this never comes back again. lets all agree to leave ghostbusters in the past, where fans like myself can rewatch on dvd privately and not see it bastardized for some social agenda

yeah it got 900,000 dislikes on YouTube, but it still got 260,000 likes. It will easily make its money back, but it won't make anywhere near as much as it should have. It should be pulling in Star Wars 7 and Jurassic World type figures, but it won't get near that.

is it funny that when they had a black man in the 80s he was nowhere near stereotypical and now they use one straight out of a blacksploitation sitcom?

Rotten Tomatoes 79% with 58 reviews in.
I sort by Top Critics (14) and only 2 of them are reviewers I read weekly or see pop as what the industry trusts (I run a movie theatre).

Peter Debruge - Variety

David Rooney - The Hollywood Reporter
Sony's email leak brought light to the fact that they know every other major studio has multiple franchises where each movie touches half a billion in sales, and they can't even get their 1 franchise Spider-Man to deliver. This will leave them to scramble back costs with home video sales (no wonder there's articles already mentioning "oh, but there's an extended cut dvd coming!")
Considering Pets just did $100+ mill with a bad story (from the people who last year made a movie about walking twinkies wearing overalls speaking french gibberish for 90 minutes) this will be a flash in the pan.
I am curious to see if Collider's Matt Goldberg will review this. He's hyper critical in his reviews, but at least he's honest.

Whereas Feig has previously managed to cross genre streams successfully, here he succumbs to the familiar curse of the digital-effects era: When there's almost nothing the computer can't conjure, it falls to the director to know when to stop.

David Rooney - The Hollywood Reporter
It's all busy-ness, noise and chaos, with zero thrills and very little sustainable comic buoyancy.
Domestic box office forecast is $45 mill for the weekend with an overall take of $130 mill... with a $150 mill budget.Sony's email leak brought light to the fact that they know every other major studio has multiple franchises where each movie touches half a billion in sales, and they can't even get their 1 franchise Spider-Man to deliver.

I went to RT to look at the reviews and every one that's positive is a female. lol! It looks like this movie was seriously pre-screened for a mostly female review audience or they are being paid off to post positive reviews.

Everyone knows RT is a chit website full to the brim with leftist SJW *******ry. Why anyone would pay attention to their film reviews is beyond me.

All this movie is trying to do is try to be as "2016" as possible. It fails to be funny, the cast members are all female, so it appeals to the SJWs either way. I swear to god our society is going down the ****hole as time goes by and this is irrefutable proof when movies like this come out.

Watched the classic GB this weekend. Never seeing the new one. The original cast didn't have to try to be funny, they just were. The new cast has to try so damn hard to be funny that it's not funny in the least bit.
