okay we want an even distribution of cops and soldiers, so we'll have a line of cops, then a line of soldiers, then another line of cops, and then some more soldiers

Cops and army guys are just randomly scattered together pointing their guns at something with really bored looks on their faces, there's nobody in the background or any general commotion and this looks like it was filmed at some frogurt shop parking lot.

Sorry guys but I can't get excited to pay 20 dollars to see this movie to find out why not even the extras seem to give a gently caress and see some more god awful boring sitcom grade set design from Paul Feig and crew.

Am willing to miss the comedy experience of a lifetime.

Since I first heard about this I have the feeling this movie is secretly financed by somebody who really, really hated Ghostbusters and doesn't care about losing money.

If you want a third Ghostbuster movie, play that Ghostbuster game that came out a while ago. It even has all the original actors voicing their parts and is pretty well put together. As close to a third movie as you're ever going to get.

It's Paul Fieg. I just hope he figures out what the word "Composition" means at some point in his life.

Composition? No, we don't need any. We're just going to use whatever poo poo Nikki Minaj and Beyonce have out for the soundtrack.

Doesn't CBS's digital division own GameSpot? Seems like it would be a more relevant inclusion on their list.

Of course it is. The slow piano playing. A bunch of "action scenes" for a comedy about busting ghosts. Honestly, it's a pretty funny parody.

I probably will not see this movie. I can't really think of a reason I'd want to see this particular movie. I saw the original movies when I was a kid but have no feelings about them either, one way or the other. That is all. Well see ya.

Liked Bridesmaids okay. The Heat sorta ruled.

I'm not SUPER jazzed for this, but I also hate the /pol/-MRS horseshit hate parade that's been raining down on this.

My bet is that the movie will be more or less fine.

My guess is it'll just be another middling reboot offering. Has there been a good one besides Batman (sort of)?

Oh! I liked the remake of 3:10 to Yuma. Does that count?

I think some people thought the evil dead remake a couple years ago was alright, although I thought it was meh.

The movie needs to end with Dan Aykroyd in full ghostbuster attire bursting into their chinatown HQ with a cease and desist letter for unauthorized franchising of the Ghostbusters name.

But no, they wasted their cameo by making him a cab driver who says "I aint afraid of no ghost" or something equally cringeworthy.
