The thing I like about the OG Ghostbusters is the vibe, not the lore. The reboot, Afterlife, and this all seem to be a completely different vibe than the original(s). I don't care about the intricacies of the worldbuilding, just gimme more of the unique balance of tones the original had.

Ehud posted:remember the library ghost? If they're in NYC yeah I want Janine and Slimer back, sorry nostalgia-haters. Library ghost and mini-Pufts can stay in the past, those make me worried Ghostbusters is going to be a rolling ball gathering up self-references until that's all it is. A real unexpected turn-around would be to have Walter Peck as head of the EPA but to be completely on board with the Ghostbusters now; even be the one who called them to help. If they still want him to be pathetic, have him groveling for their aid. I don't know, the trailer was a mixed bag of things I liked and things I didn't. Drone trap was cool.

It's this yea but at some point the Fandom decided what they liked most was the proton packs and stuff that was onscreen for 4 minutes, the same way star wars became about lightsabers.

City garbagemen that handle spirits instead of trash is such a funny and amazingly vivid premise for a movie. I gather these sequels are about how IMPORTANT these dudes were? It was just their day job ffs.

The folks behind Back to the Future say that they won't allow a remake in their lifetimes, so that's something.

Maybe there are some fans out there that disagree but I don't really see the point. The time machine was dope but you don't need a tricked-out sportscar to make a brand new movie about trying to get your parents to bang.

They should remake movies with great premises but terrible/bad execution. Like remake In Time. or Tomorrowland (Brad Bird betrayed us). Sliding Doors ( I actually like this movie but it could be so much better).

This looks very silly fun. But I guess they couldn't make an action-filled romp of the ministry's more well-known Operation Mincemeat.
