Havenât watched it yet, but thatâs what you said about the first oneâŚ
EDIT: Aaand Iâm back.
Shockingly, I may have to agree with the youtube commenter(!)
A huge improvement over the last trailer, I rate this one a solid 2/10.
I still donât get it. Is this a remake, a reboot or a sequel? It still looks like itâs just riffing off the original, badly. I have no doubt that, mediocre as this looks (and sounds), itâll end up better than whatever Aykroyd was pitching, but I donât think that would be hard. To me, itâs weird that they havenât even rolled out even a hint of any of the cameos from the original. Guess theyâre really, really small parts - 'cos even a token glimpse of Venkman would massively improve the goodwill for this film.
Wonder if this trailer will surpass the last one for downvotes?
No. No, it doesn´t.
If itâs so fantastic, then where are all of the mangenitals? ITS NOT GOSTBUSTERS IF IT HAS LADYPARTS!!!
i want to have kate mckinnonâs babies.
Iâve read various places itâs a reboot and not in the same universe as the original, which I personally find very disappointing. While I didnât like Ghostbusters 2 by a long shot, I like how it addressed them as being washed up and disgraced. I donât see why this new one wouldnât use some backstory from the original: like, their predecessors are long gone â Egon is dead, Venkman is institutionalized, Zeddemore is running a PMC, SpenglerStantz moved to Canada â whatever, just some sort of acknowledgement of the original members â and Bad Shit is happening and a new generation needs to do something about it.
I think people are really being dicks about how great this movie has to be to get them to just admit that itâs decent.
Ghostbusters (the original) wasnât fucking directed by David Lean or anything. It was a funny movie with special effects that were a big deal at the time. Thatâs it. There was not one groundbreaking thing about that movie other than possibly featuring prototypical hip-hop/rap in the theme.
Itâs not some fucking sacred epic that dare not be touched with unclean hands.
Itâs fair to be skeptical of any new product, but people are really being overcritical of this for some bullshit reasons. Like dogmatic adherence to traditionalism/nostalgia and a lot of misogyny coming from a lot of assholes. Fuck all that. If the movie sucks it will suck for reasons unrelated to gender or adherence to the original film. If itâs good it will be good because of the work of those who made it despite all of the rest.
itâs a Namequel.
I loathed the first trailer with all of my being, but I have to admit, this one looks a lot better. Not great, but at least it didnât inspire immediate hatred. The effects still look like awful cartoony CGI garbage, and the jokes still arenât funny, but at least theyâre no longer anti-humor. I still like the actresses and their ghostbusting equipment, I just donât have a lot of hope for the quality of everything else. I might actually give this one a shot if it gets overwhelmingly positive reviews.
Egon and Spengler are the same person. Iâm assuming you meant Ray Stantz. From what I heard, some of the actors from the original Ghostbusters will have cameos- but not as their characters. Seems like an odd choice, if true.
It seems to me that many attempts at legitimately criticizing whatever failings might be on display in these trailers are constantly being written off as women-bashing. Or maybe that just makes a good narrative for the media to run with â one that the studio is happy to encourage, as if, should all else fail, they will still be able to sell tickets on the grounds of âwatch this movie or the misogynists will have wonâ, or something.

i like it ok, i guess, but i just never understood why it needed to be rebooted/updated in the first place.
Theyâre called âbrandquels.â
This one looks like an enjoyable brandquel.
As enjoyable as anything without Bill Murray can be, anyway. 
Yeah, I agree. This trailer honestly doesnât look any better or worse than, say, this one:
I wish they didnât feel the need to stay so slavishly faithful to the animation aesthetics, and I certainly wish it were an original sequel rather than what will probably turn out to be a reboot/remake, but yâknow⌠thatâs our fault as audiences, for demanding âmore of what I thought was cool when I was a kidâ all the goddamned time.
Switching the gender of the main protagonists is a novelty, but not something that magically invalidates all criticism. Right now, the film looks like a typical uninspired, badly written Hollywood cash-in banking on the popularity of the original, the likes of which we see dozens of times each year. It will probably be mediocre like 95% of everything produced in Hollywood, but far from fantastic.
A remake using the original actors would very likely have turned out just as bad if not worse for what it´s worth.
I really didnât like the way they went about it, though. Glowing spirits swarmed across and through New York City, the Ghostbusters took down a skyscraper-sized marshmallow monster in the middle of downtown while thousands of people watched in person and millions on live TV, andâŚnow somehow theyâre generally agreed to be charlatans? What?
Wouldâve made a lot more sense if theyâd just focused on, hey, with Gozer gone thereâs not really a ghost problem in NYC anymore, so thereâs no work for the guys.
OKâhahaha. You almost had me with the Angry Birds rave, but taken in context, its clear youâre just trolling us at this point.
Um âŚRightâŚ?
Please God tell me Iâm right?!!!
