> first trailer for the new film, released in early March, became the most disliked trailer in YouTube history after a coordinated campaign by a group of mostly male naysayers.

Who coordinated the campaign?
>>69971776
>if you don't go to see Ghostbusters, you hate women
totally not a paid advertisement
>Sony has circulated online posters for “Ghostbusters” with looks that are more provocative than the janitorlike outfits displayed on one the film’s early promotional images. One set of dark, moody posters shows a shadowy Ms. Wiig in a profile reminiscent of the noir advertisements for the graphic novel-based movie, “Sin City.”
Will it work?

>Who coordinated the campaign?
It was me, James.
>But what many take issue with is Sony Pictures tired reiteration of racist tropes. Watch the trailer and see for yourself: the three white women are genius scientists/academics --specifically, a particle physicist, a "brilliant engineer," and a quantum physicist-- while the black woman is a jive talking, streetwise subway worker who knows the city, procures them a slick ride, and chauffers them around. What message does this give to black girls?

Someone remake this or the Golden Girls with an all male cast.

>>69972162
Because they're not sexist shitlords.
>>69972162
as a presumed film buff you should know that some trailers have completely different tones from their respective movies, for example Edge of Tomorrow and Pacific Rim had a gritty feel in their trailers but the movies were not like that
>>69971967
Exactly.
When all the legit critics hate it, even the women, and when it is horribly unsuccessful in theaters they will cry "patriarchy".
I watched the trailer after hearing about all the downvotes. The trailer didn't make me laugh, but cringe, so I downvoted it.
To be fair, the Ghostbusters 2 trailer doesn't make me laugh at all either.
Meanwhile, the original Ghostbusters trailer makes me laugh in the first shot.
>>69971776
They literally nazis now
>>69972430
the critics will force themselves to like it or just lie
they're public figures who depend on renown to get by
they really don't want to be targets for feminist hate
>>69972358
I completely agree, but the fact people are only taking an issue with hating a trailer now because they've adopted the film as pushing their agenda is terrible. I know a trailer doesn't always represent a film but the way some people are outright lying about how good it looks is pretty sickening.
>>69972473
We've been heading this way for a while.
>>69972514
You just think it looks bad because you're biased from the get go. You're focusing on the flaws and not the merits.
>>69972128
Golden Guys...
This is weird to think about...
3 widowers and a divorcee living in Miami, having poker games, playing golf, smoking cigars, drinking whiskey, and fucking chicks...
One would be a fat dumb guy that supposedly has a giant dong.
One would be a handsome playboy type.
One would be an "ugly" college professor.
Last would be the professor's dad, whose a foul mouthed wiseguy.
Shit, id watch it.
>>69971871
I honestly thought the media couldn't possibly be conspiring to promote a poor remake of an 80s comedy film franchise involving ghosts, but they are. There were so many mainstream media sites and celebrities that was just tearing that Angry Video Game Nerd critic, simply because he isn't going to watch the film, and, therefore, isn't going to review it. They accused him of so many bogus things, like he was sexist, immature, or intolerant, or just ignorant.
>>69972015
You have no clue what you're talking about..
r/theredpill is mostly about women and lifting. Nothing do with with alt right or Nazis
And /pol/ is order of magnitudes more active than it.
>Who coordinated the campaign?

>>69972493
exactly but it will get 8/10 and 7/10 from the bold ones and 0% on rotten tomatos, someone in a couple of years will start bringing it up as not being that bad because sony already invested way too much money, there is almost guarranteed sequel

/pol/ was always right wing you stupid morons. Sure there were sizable numbers of libertarians around during the rise of Ron Paul but now they've moved to Trump because he's actually doing what none of /pol/s meme candidates have ever done, divide both political parties and create the lulziest shitstorm in American political history.
Its fucking beautiful.
>>69972177
>CGI spectacle
You seriously think that? The CGI looks the same as any other movie from the last five years.
Do they HONESTLY THINK that there is some coordinated army of spooky MRAs and misogynists out there bringing down their gay little worlds?

Fucking prove it. You can't just put this type of shit in an article with no proof, fucking back that up. All these liberal dipshits do nothing but print article after article where they say whatever they like and have no sources for anything. You couldn't possibly prove that second point either, it's pure conjecture.
>>69974137
That would imply that /pol/ agrees with all of Trump's stances, which they don't. However many see him as the best chance to unfuck up the United States or at least aim it for a more prosperous future away from the paths of globalist neo-socialism Europe and Canada have taken.

Well, GamerGate (which is dead by the way, I was told this in many articles) was a VERY evil terrorist organization numbering in the billions that harassed trillions of women online but somehow never physically came into contact with any of them. To this day they are still alive and well (I was told this in many articles) with at least 800 billion members, doxxing and sending death threats to all women in existence at all times. Surely they could pull something like this off, right?

GamerGate is a coopted movement anyways that rarely ever delivers lulz anymore so who cares? Fuck half of their followers are nu-male cucks who care more about appealing to lesbians and game developers to where they became their own monster. One of them, the board owner of 8gag's biggest gg board, even censored people en masse over a year ago and killed activity for good after everyone found out that he was an ATF gun runner faggot who dox'd people he didn't like.
SJWs are crazy if they think GG is alive, they're the same retarded brand of SJW and almost as venomous.

Doesn't matter. The professional critics are going to inflate the ratings on imdb and RT and all of the femcunts and femfags are going to do the same (for free).
You don't think so then just go check Spy's score on RT and imdb. It's got a fucking 94% on RT (like 79 for audience score). It's a 7.2 on imdb. It's a shitflick and this one is going to be worse but the ratings won't reflect that and the average normie who isn't caught up in the e-drama are going to get tricked into seeing it. It's going to make a huge profit, I guarantee it.

So many words to say so little.
Geek/Nerd culture is bullshit fandom. It is pretentious, and gives the idea that the partakers are more intelligent than the non partakers, but not through merit through the absorption of media.
It's like having a bunch of fucking librarians who don't read books. They want to look like the product of an outcome, but the outcome is a really just the current state of a process or lifestyle.
As far as bashing Meninist, that's just saying you don't want equal rights, you wan't rights weighted on the side of females. Which females already have more systemic protections in place than males.

You're right, but what I'm saying is we have a generation of fucking posers who don't know about their hobby. Fuckers who wear Nirvana shirts but can't name a single song. Green Lantern panties, but know fuck all about any DC story arc.
Entry to geek culture is simply wearing the close, that's not how it's always been. Used to be about spending Saturday mornings at the comic story, playing D&D on Thursday nights and 40k on Tuesdays. Collecting Magic cards like they were baseball cards. Watching Tokyo Tank Police at 11pm and Macross at 5am.
Not saying that I was a better geek, I was genuinly interested in all those things. Now it's just a fashion sub culture.

But.. why hasn't anybody (of these media outlets) written about the trailer, they just throw punches to the air, but they never try to defend what according to them is being wrongfully attacked.. I mean does de nytimes (or the person that wrote the article) honestly believes that the trailer looks good? , does he/she think it should have a better thumbs up thumbs down ratio? Why is people bitching about something they know deserve to be treated as what it is, a pile of shit. I didn't see the nytimes writing an article aboutall the hate and terrible critics against the chipmunks movies or trying to spin it as a hate crime against animals/chipmunks..

Because it was the last time they had something they could point to and say, "This is objectively wrong."
I know about all the bullshitting that was done by SJWs, but there were death threats and doxxing made against women. It's like how BLM compares itself to MLK Jr. and what he went through, because they can put themselves on the moral high ground instead of acknowledging the full dirtiness of what went on.

Jesus fucking christ at those highest rated comments. The top one is blaming solely white males. I find it funny retards can look at comments and articles like this and still believe anti-white and anti-male propaganda aren't real and have no effect. It IS the mainstream line of thought and anyone who goes ''you people who complain about SJWs are just as bad they are a fringe minority of whiners.'' So New York Times is a fringe minority? If you aren't against them, you might as well be with them. There is no straddling the fence when it comes to ideals like that.
>>69975470

And this is why you can't tryst mainstream media, always trying to drive some agenda. Manipulating readers like that, they should be ashamed. Surely there are men who are legit muh-sorgey-nee-ists and hate the new Ghostboobsters because of them wimmin, but vast majority are people who are simply sick and tired of these shitty remakes and reboots, and this time Hollywood is remaking one of the most iconic franchises of the last few decades.

How come the new Ghostbabesters are all serious scientists and engineers? Except for the huge black woman of course.

Well, ghosts are objectively real and proven for like 30 years in this universe, so it makes sense that real scientists would be involved. Imagine the level of inquiry that would be turned on it, the grants these ladies have for their research, and how they're going to use grad students as ghost-bait.
JK, of course it's going to be exactly like the other movie, because these things can never come up with original plot that fits different characters (see Star Wars TFA), and the science angle will be just there for technobabble. Bonus points- no one will respect them because they're women, and you're going to get a scene of the department head being sexist and belittling them, and said head will suffer some embarrassing/lethal fate in the climax of the film.
