Do people actually think that type of over the top humor is funny? Only thing that looked good was the CGI. Everything else about this was a huge pile.

I was interested in it when I first heard about it, but that trailer is awful. I most likely won't see it now.

That blonde chick is a freak, though. Would cross streams with her.

Kristin Wiig is abysmally unfunny and having her be in anything is a heavy indicator that whatever it is isn't worth your time.

Trailer improved my view from certain disaster to the potential of simply being a movie I wont ever see but that may have a few amusing scenes in it.

I also agree this movie is not a remake, not a sequel, but a parody the original Ghostbusters.

Kate McKinnon is pretty funny on SNL. Movie looks pretty average.

It's not a sequel. The 30 years thing is marketing cashing in on your nostalgia. Feig has said a billion times it's a hard reboot and that he only does origin stories.

IT'S NOT A SEQUEL. I AM SORRY FOR ALL YOUR DASHED HOPES. THIS MOVIE IS GONNA BE SHIT.

Edit: Also, FYI, some of the original cast are making cameos, but as other characters. Supposedly Murray plays some dude who tries to debunk them or some crap.

The fuck trailer did you watch? It looks like a beat-for-beat remake to me, except this time they are all women...great. Even saw where the ghost leaving her body would be their slimer. Now what will be their Sta-Puft??? Its like the force awakens, except with likely shit production value and a only a fraction of the sentimental pull to overcome the cheesy callback script choices.
I could ask you how much of the trailer you watched. 6 seconds in the first words. "30 years ago 4 scientists saved New York. This summer a new team will answer the call." You didn't last very long if you missed that.

Maybe if the movie was called Paranormal Hilarity or something other than fucking Ghostbusters
That's a good idea. We should get the thread renamed to "Paranormal Hilarity (new ghostbusters)"

Fuck you. Fuck you right in the dickhole with a rusty spike.

Bridesmaids was a hilarious movie, people who didn't enjoy that film have a garbage sense of humor. If they are going to remake Ghostbusters I have no problem with them casting 4 women as the main characters to shake things up a bit. I have kept as open a mind about this film as anyone could. That trailer didn't make me crack a smile once.

Surprised there weren't any "girl power" moments in the trailer since, up until now, that seemed to be what they were trying to sell this movie on. That said, doesn't look half as bad as I expected, but also about half of what I'd want from a Ghostbuster movie. I'll catch it on cable or something out of curiousity.

Haha, people already crying that the black one isn't a scientist.
People were expecting Leslie Jones to play something other than obnoxiously loud black female stereotype? From what I've seen, that's about the extent of her acting abilities. That's like expecting that Melissa McCarthy would play something other than blundering fat woman in a Feig movie.

It looks better than I was expecting but it also looks a little too much like one of the live-action Scooby Do movies.

Could be fine? Probably won't be memorable.

Really? THE POWER OF PATTY COMPELS YOU didn't even get a grin?

Yeah it wouldn't work at all if McCarthy were to play something like a badass secret agent.

wtf is a feig movie?

Oh, I thought it was a slur of some sort.

Still might be one I guess if you don't like good comedies.

So the black woman is the outsider of the four, is not highly educated like the other three white women, and happens to work in the subway selling tokens...so Token Black. This is going to go well.
