Making Chekhov gay would've been a nice "gently caress you" to Putin, but I can't remember if there was anything about him specifically being straight in TOS.

Crushing Chekhov under an all-American car was a nice gently caress you to Putin, so good enough.

like it literally looks like some 3rd rate cirque de sole thing or something where people are flailing around while being suspended from wires

It looks like those behind the scene features where you can see the action from unintended angles, everything is blurry and confusing because the camera is without direction, the effects aren't there yet, and the actors are wearing mo-cap suits and look unnatural and really awkward.

Except this is the final product.

It really is a truly unique and endearing character driven line. Abby being a Hockey fan and never quite making the team due to her other passion, science, comes full circle as she "slapshots" ghosts at the end. It's beautiful, really.

I get the feeling that marketing to social justice types is going to work about as well as marketing to the meme crowd did for Snakes on a Plane.

I remember that lol couple weeks when snakes on a plane release day discussion was cordoned to only two approved megathreads under threat of a ban if you posted about it anywhere else

then there was fury over the fact that our own futuristic sex robots' single didn't make it into the movie, and the safe/generic rock song from a band called cobra starship mysteriously did

Its been like what a decade? Since snake on a plane.

So lets see it was a 36 million dollar movie, which from my memory seemed to know how stupid the premise was.

Ghostbusters 2016 seems to have a 156 million dollar budget...

156/36=4.3

So they could have made like 4 meme based movies (scumbag steve, doge, bad luck brain, mega milk monster) but instead bet the farm on...social justice?

No its a lovely movie and they know it.

How many period jokes do you think is in this movie?

I wonder if those dumb "meme" movies would still be getting made if the Asylum hadn't cornered the market. The shock and surprise that Hollywood were actually going to make a movie called SNAKES ON A PLANE and it was about SNAKES ON A PLANE is lessened now when every other week there's a direct to video masterpiece called, "GIANT SHARKTOPUS vs WEAVIL TORNADO"

I read an article on on that. I guess Samuel L Jackson fought to keep the name. The movie was originally supposed to be titled 'Flight 337' or something. But then there's this whole movement of people who think all movies should be named based on what they are about. So their examples were like the movie 'It Could Happen to You' should have been titled 'Police officer gives waitress winning lottery ticket', and Forrest Gump should have been 'Special needs man overcomes adversity'. These people were super proud of this concept they were like 'We should know what a movie is about just by looking at the title'.

I don't remember a movement like that. I remember Samuel L Jackson saying that the only reason he joined the project was because of the title, and that's why he fought to keep it. It made him laugh.

I had a really good time watching Snakes on a Plane in a second run theater with my dad who has an intense fear of snakes, he basically jumped out of his seat during the scene where the snake bites that dudes dick.

This film will probably not inspire good dad-related memories. :(

I don't remember ghostbusters doing rolls while shooting ghosts with proton beams. Based on the first two trailers I thought it would be a mildly amusing but forgettable comedy. After that last clip I think it might be a horrendously bad action movie.
