>“Since we’re all in the business of ruining men’s childhoods,” he said, “Kristen and Melissa came up with this way to really enrage men, which they thought would be to do the ‘folk-lady’ version of ‘Ghostbusters,’ so I would like them to perform that for you.”

having an incredibly easy-to-hate but also loud group scream about every film/show with a woman in it, then get written about by neoliberals looking for an easy scapegoat for society's problems, both of which are free advertising for whatever awful company owns the film, will probably be the cultural mode for the next 10 years

This is 21st century marketing, its bipartisan politics in commercial space. But instead of pitting the working poor dems against the working poor repubs for the benefits of their political masters, its pitting women against men for the benefit of their corporate masters.

But please, go see yet another crappy hollywood remake twice just to spite this viewer who has no more interest in Ghostbusters 2016 than Total Recall 2012 or Robocop 2014.

I really, really don't understand how they can get away with this. I am honestly at a loss, not at the cringey, stupid rendition of the GB theme, but at the acceptance of the belittling, bullying and mocking of the demographic which gave them the opportunity to make this film in the first place.

I don't care for this movie, this is the first comment I've actually ever made about this movie yet the implication that I'm disinterested because it's got women leading is absolutely baffling to me. I am simply just not interested in watching a new GB movie and I don't have an interest in any of the leads.

Spy was pretty good with Melissa McCarthy, I found it pretty enjoyable...did I enjoy it because I wanted to support a socio-political topic? No, I watched it because the idea interested me.

People basing your social and political ideologies on what movies you wish to spend your time watching is quite a mindbogglingly ridiculous thing to do.

Someone, like a host, seriously needs to shut them down and say.

"Maybe it's not about these so called man babies childhood. Maybe it's because the trailer looked really bad, which is down to the actresses, yourselves, involved are not funny at all. It's not about gender, it's about the cast that's bland and unoriginal. There's better female actresses out there who can hold comedy even when it's not their main drive in their career. People like Rose Bryne. Now fuck off out of my show."

You just ignore it. They can't make money off of their work. Their real work is trolling men into attacking them then crying victim for numale bucks. They get more press and exposure responding to mean internet comments than anything else.

Fucking women, man. Whether it's lewd gaming with a webcam, nasal whinging about triggers, crying for those delicious sympathy dollars.

She actually wrote this. She actually thought this in her brain and decided she wanted to share it with the world. She premeditated to put this on her social media, but first she needed to find an image of Varys, and as she was finding this image, she was replaying in her head the joke she had made, and didn't come to the conclusion that it wasn't worth her time to post it. It probably took her approximately 2-5 minutes to put her thought onto the screen and within that allotted time she never thought to just keep it only as a thought and not bring it to reality. She probably posted this, and re-read it around 10-25 times as she smirked smugly to herself.

It's because it's fucking 100% true at this point. I've never argued it up until now because the facts weren't there but they are there increasingly. They say some stupid shit and get millions of views/hits and you guys get played like fucking gullible morons. It angers me that a thread about this was made, 100% for the fact that it wasn't even a hard shot at men and you guys are crying like it's the worst one yet. They've won. They can now say men are poopy heads and you will now cry like the boogeyman man baby they made up in their articles. How is that respectable on any level? The reaction is literally exactly as stupid and pointless as tumblr's outrage, who gives a fuck about the impetus for the rage when the end result is exactly the same? I don't say you are just the same as tumblr because I kind of side with them, I don't side with them at all, for the same reason I don't side with you, you are a fucking faggot baby crying that doesn't understand how the real world works.

two things
1) Agendas were usually more pushed in lower budget things and they avoided them for larger budget endeavors. This is pretty new. Summer blockbuster type movies are not where this kind of fight takes place. They're a kind of neutral zone.
2) It's not so much ignored as people didn't see and the internet hasn't always been around to allow so many people to bitch about it.
>>
>>71189541
That black creature is hideous.
>>
>>71190321
Exactly. There was nothing wrong with a black hero or an all-female cast. None of these things are new. It's fake drummed up opposition to something which would normally flop due to poor reception or lack of interest (Star Wars would never do THAT bad, but it still helped). 4chan and especially Reddit are easy to manipulate. /pol/ ironically is the most bluepilled board, because they always mobilize themselves to do the bidding of others. /tv/ and /v/ also play into this since we get into drama too easily.

Actually they are, you just didn't care about the politics so you never noticed. Die Hard 4 was internet censorship propaganda. Tomorrow Never Dies was part of an agenda to split Microsoft into 3 different companies. The CIA has admitted to having a strong influence on Hollywood and the Bush administration had a special budget where they gave funding and oversaw some ungodly amount of mainstream works of fiction to try to remain in some public favor.

You brought this on yourselves you dumb chucklecucks.

You could have easily just ignored this and let it fade into history along with the Robocop and Total Recall remakes.

Instead you retarded manchildren pitched an autistic, misogynist shitfit over women raping your precious childhood and in doing so gave them a year's worth of free advertising.

Now it's a much bigger deal than it otherwise would've been, it'll make more money than it ever would have, any criticism of it will automatically be labeled sexism, and it's all your fault.

Not really. Hollywood is simply churning out remakes in order to make money. It's not because they are evil or jewish or something, it's simply how buisness work. This time they struck an odd vein of gold with all the meninists and MRA's protesting their latsest cash grab, and they simply said fuck it, let's milk this thing for all it's worth.

This isn't just your average back lash against a remake of a popular movie, there are some deeply rooted mommy issues involved here. And far be it from Hollywood to exploit unhinged people, so here we are.

Thank you all for making the Ghostbusters remake such a big deal. It would have fizzled out and been forgotten about in a month. But now it's a cultural phenomenom. Good job, men.
>>
>>71192052
Actually no. She was getting a good deal of attention well before the "manchildren" happened to her, which there's a lot of proof that that much of what she claims happened didn't. She pulled in more who had the agenda of changing ALL games to suit their agenda. It's not muh sekret club you cretin. It's people who don't give a shit about something except as an avenue to push their agenda affecting real change that affects all who do actually enjoy it.

See it's not the wanting changing, it's wanting everything about it to change that's the problem.

Not him but it was a strawman, it no longer is at this point. They've clearly gotten under the skin of their opposition and are playing them like finger puppets at this point. All you need is one idiot to make a joke about a sandwhich or a kitchen and the strawman is upgraded to a hasty generalization. 10k more sandwhich/kitchen jokes and it's not even really a hasty generalization. There is only the moment, and at the moment this shit is going from a censorship/artistic integrity debate to some good dialogue on equality muddled with misogyny. Anyways, 4chan newfags fell for it hook line and sinker, and now we all are made to suffer for it.

Imagine if the situation was reversed, and it was a group of men, re-making a female-led franchise.

Imagine the reaction of women if a group of men replacing female actors stated "We're interested in ruining women's childhoods." Imagine the amount of outrage a comment like that would generate among the feminist / tumblr-core females.

This entire movie, I could care less about honestly. I never really liked Ghostbusters in the first place, and I won't be seeing this irregardless, but it's hilarious how ass-blasted they are over people not wanting to see their shitty movie.

Now that "nerd culture" has become so mainstream that it excludes social outcasts, what is the current/next counter-culture? What kind of fringe subculture is emerging to replace "nerd culture" as the anti-mainstream refuge of western society's young introverts and losers?

The Alt-right? Traditional conservatism? Social Justice? Memetics?

Because whatever it is, it might well be the future. This shit comes in cycles, what is socially outcast now will slowly spread among the cultural underground, then be pandered to by commercialism until it becomes mainstream. At which point it loses it's street credibility and is replaced by the new "cool."

This "nerd" fad will soon become grossly unfashionable for about a decade, then briefly return as a retro revival before becoming history. The million dollar question is predicting what trend will replace it.

Not only can individuals create such a change (seriously now, we're not talking about changing that large of a group here), but that's not the problem. The problem with her is being a focal point for a movement that's a lot larger than ONE PERSON. Is she the only one? No.

>Everyone in the game industry would have ignored her if gamers didn't prove her point by acting like complete retards in reaction to her opinions.
They didn't though. Seriously, look it up. Most of the threats she published were sockpuppets. But that's literally exactly different from the abject lies and misrepresentations she made.

Even if this is true, which it probably isn't, when she began her kickstarter, which is what started this whole thing, /v/ was making threads and threads about it and how awful it was, they were collectively freaking out. These people weren't Anita making threads about herself and talking about herself them to make it seem like /v/ hated her.

Video games going mainstream was fucking awesome for gamers. We now get games with better production value than most Hollywood blockbusters and can compete online against millions of people. VR is on the horizon, and there are as many movies being made about game franchises as there are games being made from movie franchises. There's more originality and innovation in the video game industry than any other entertainment medium now, and I love it.

As far as video games are concerned it's a great time to be a genuine nerd. Even the selling out of so-called "journalists" in the industry, and the amazing childish backlash when they were criticised hasn't dampened people's passion for vidya. It's not just mainstream now, it's an unstoppable part of our culture, like music, movies and literature.

History might look back on this time as the golden age of video games.

These games "reviewers" for major gaming sites admitted it was normal for people in that part of the industry to accept bribes, favours and presents from AAA production companies in exchange for positive reviews. It was common knowledge and never even denied because of all the fucking archives of them talking about it. There was even a group, GameJournoPros, where 150 of them all congregated to literally conspire against their consumers for personal gain. They haven't denied any of this because they can't, it's on the fucking record. This is the scandal that Gamergate was originally about.

When they were confronted with the dishonesty of this, they went full damage control, insulted their entire audience and started throwing around accusations of bigotry, redirecting and reframing the discussion to avoid addressing the issue. Again, at no point did they deny their corruption or even address it, because they were bang to rights.

And all of this was pretty much known for years before the Zoe incident. Yet, it took a girl cheating on her boyfriend to awaken the mighty warriors of the internet? Perhaps spurred on by a feminazi (Anita, blesed is her name) turning her judgmental eyes on the gaming community? And let's not forget that the gentle neo-nazis of /pol/ worked quite hard to get the gaming community to jump on their anti-feminism wagon. So yeah, the gaming journalism deserved a good boot to it's ass. It's just weird that all it took to get it rolling was slut-shaming and anti-feminism.

>objectification

Women are objects, like every other physical piece of matter.

Consensual sexuality is not "objectification" no matter what your gender studies teacher says.

>making fun of the audiences who pay to see movies

Great marketing Sony.
Addressing the hate doesn't change the fact that a majority of people, regardless of gender, still are actively boycotting your film.

No I just haven't devoted myself to the matter as you have.

You do realize if you find me insufferable you can just leave and go somewhere else?

I'd rather keep you quarantined to this thread if it means you won't spread your dumb everywhere else.
