Throughout all this Ghostbusters remake hullabaloo, where was the hate train for the remakes of Robocop and Total Recall?
I felt like I was the only one that was truly livid that two classic Verhoeven movies were being tainted with boorishly CGI driven imitators, and still haven't seen either out of protest.
Yet, people were okay with Total Recall (despite the charisma vacuum that is Colin Farrell) and people even LIKED the new Robocop despite it lacking any good satire (A parody of Fox News and Bill O'Reilly? Oh my god this has never been done before!) and a fun but at the same time, plausibly gritty looking future (ED-209's in Iraq lmao)
So truly, why does the new Ghostbusters get the hate? Why the backlash against reboots now?
Your pasta is getting pretty stale.
Why are you making this thread again? Were your questions not sufficiently answered then?
It helps if the pasta made a point.
Both movies were panned universally.

The Robocop remake was so cancer it had a crowdmade competitor remake as a protest

Let's not go crazy here. They had lukewarm reception when they were announced and had lukewarm reviews at best.

Were you even here when those movies released? People made hate threads every day, even more than ghostbusters
Total Recall remake was pretty good

You are objectively wrong and a bad person

Are you an idiot? There was a big stink about those movies before they came out.

Please consider killing yourself in the near future
