just a brief return post...

I knew sony was deleting comments, but NOW they are deleting videos showing the trailer in a negative light. and leaving up the racist and sexist comments up on youtube by the few idiots spouting them....in leaving those up, and deleting the valid comments, it's no doubt they are in full blown panic/damage control now, and just flailing away trying to do anything to desperately save this thing..including showing the fans in negative light, since thanks to the NDA, they can't really bash their own picture.

and sony seriously needs to reign in paul feig on twitter. even women on pro women groups aren't buying that he originally had jones and mcarthy's roles switched. especially considering jones character is all she really does on SNL, just like mcarthy does only the chris farley impression.

and that second trailer was even worse than the first (a Push, pull joke? that seems more like an outake!). Hemsworth is the only one, apart from the egon look alike, that actually seems like he enjoys being there. the rest all look asleep.

at this point it should be easier to avoid searching out reactions. all I have to do is bookmark that reddit post to keep up to day on this thing and i'll have my trashing this movie fix.
oh well. back into feigbusters exile.

I know what that movie will totally lack. Ron Jeremy as an extra in a crowd scene. THAT would be an easter egg ...

supposedly video bob, hated around the web prop re caster extraordinaire, is an extra in the crowd scene. you can spot him in the trailer. isn't that just as bad?

So now VideoBob isn´t just a recaster but helped ruin the new Ghostbusters Film?! Heads will roll ... oh, wait, wrong movie ...
 
it's kind of sad the effects in that look smoother than the stuff seen in the movie. especially slimer.

Although it'd be funnier, and far less serious if stay pufts head exploded from his angry face. that's the only face they didn't really show..


I think the fact that someone noticed this means the reddit posts are pretty spot on. warning, spoiler thingy ahead
 
went to go see zootopia today.

after groaning through the bay turtles 2 trailer... I was expecting to see ghostbusters pop up on the big screen...but nothing.

shouldn't it be on tv everywhere andin front of movies by now?

I've seen the angry birds trailer more times without even looking for it and that made me laugh more than this thing ;o).

about the only presence it had where these awful things

Just watched the trailer and the only things I liked was the GB theme and slimer. It looks like a freaking Scooby Doo movie. The add ons to the proton packs were knida neat since they did that in the game with the original team but aside from the nerdy chick the entire team is boring. Also the comments were funnier than the trailer with there being nearly 450,000 dislikes and 2 folks pointing out that nazis videos and bieber videos have more likes than the trailer lol
 
Well, VB is known for having uploaded his own homemade porn tape online a few years ago. So yes.... it is just as bad.

Sony Boardroom:

"See we have a twist on the failed stage dive gag. Instead of the the old bit where the skinny good looking one stage dives, then the fat one fails, we're going to have a bit where the white girl stage dives, then the black girl fails."

"OMG thats the funniest thing anyone's ever written! You must be a genius! Give this guy a medal!"


Normal room:

"See we have a twist on the failed stage dive gag. Instead of the the old bit where the skinny good looking one stage dives, then the fat one fails, we're going to have a bit where the white girl stage dives, then the black girl fails."

silence.

"See...it's funny because...she's black...and...uh...they dont catch her...and..hmm. Nevermind"

continued silence.
 
Anyone want to place bets that they're somehow going to turn the theme song into either some techno garbage or a rap song? Bobbie Brown in GB2 was bad enough lol
 
Well at least one good thing is happening because of this movie. Hi c is releasing ecto cooler for those of us to be able to relive our childhood days by being able to drink some ecto cooler and sharing it with our children now.

This is the only decent thing to come out of this whole freaking **** show. I hope its true! I would chug that stuff by the gallon if it came back!

There is also supposed to be a ghostbusters themed twinkie called key lime slime being released with the movie.
 
I thought Ghostbusters was a lot of fun and even enjoyed part 2. Maybe it's my age, 47, but for the life of me I can't fathom why people hold this "franchise" in such high regard as to spend countless hours arguing it's virtues or merit. It was an 80's comedy film. I feel the same way about Back to the Future. I could care less hay they do with this IP, if it is decent I would go see it. But this whole continuity stuff is really too much.
 
And sometimes, at a con or something, one of the fans will suddenly scream "They're just movies and comic books! Why do we even care?" and will run out, never to be seen again. Possibly they go take up golf or something.
