Pretty bad, almost none of the jokes land, the plot is extremely predictable, and the trailers give everything away. That being said for all the commotion made about the heavy-handed feminism, there is actually very little, they never make men look bad or have patriarchy jokes, it's literally ghostbusters, but they're women. The shilling of feminism isn't it's problem, it's problem is that it's unfunny and extremely forgettable.

I've been hearing that all the men are assholes, pussies, or morons though. Like a school president flipping them off with a double bird and saying things like "I thought I let you off ten years ago" and such. Seems pretty anti-men.

>>71877343

The commotion didn't come out the film being filled with feminism, it came out of feminists being butthurt that the film and the trailer were being rejected completely before the film came out. People didn't really complain about the feminism until fucktards over at places like The Guardian made it about that.

Thanks for your money my goy.

>>71877535
Not really true, the biggest asshole in the movie is that bitchy politician woman, so it's not all anti-men the "ten-years ago" joke has nothing to do with sexism, Wiigs character gets fired from her college because of her belief in ghosts. McCarthy works in a different college that has a paranormal department, she reassures wiig that her college with fund their investigations because they're open-minded and believe paranormal research is a valid field. It then hard cuts to her boss talking to them in an office and he says angrily "wait!, your department is still open? I thought we shut that down ten years ago?" Which is supposed to be humorous as she's been mooching off the uni for years without realising, thinking that they think Paranormal research is a serious field.

Chris Hemsworths character is made to be the most likeable character, he's an idiot but not in a "LOL men are dumb" kinda way, ozy osbourne makes a cameo. Honestly the whole anti-men angle is a bit of a stretch, there is very little "girl power" moments. They never even draw attention to them being women.

>>71877556
There were very little laughs in the audience. The only real laugh that was had throughout the audience, was at the very beginning a tour guide is showing a group of tourists around an old haunted house (the one where wiig gets puked on by the ghost in the trailer.) , he mentions that at the time it was built it had state of the art anti-Irish security fences. We all had a laugh at that. I live in Ireland. Besides that, the only laughs were had by the young children at the slapstick humour throughout. Nobody in the cinema stayed to watch through the credits scenes if that's any indication.
>>
>>71876912
Since this seems to something dividing critics; did the four main leads have any chemistry between them?
>>
>>71878631
Not really, Wiig and McCarthy had chemistry simply because they're the only characters that have a history, but even then it wasn't great, Contrary to popular opinion, I really disliked McKinnons character, I found her to be really forced and her "quirky" level was set to 11, she was weird for the sake of weird and didn't get a single chuckle out of me. The black one wasn't funny either and comes into it about 1/3 the way in. None of the characters playoff each other's personalities like they did in the original. It's like they were assigned a certain character archetype and the humour stems from them being "that" type of person, as opposed to witty banter between each other, the laughs are supposed to come from individual actions of the characters.

Is it true there is a joke involving a dumb delivery man?

>>71876912
How fast do you think you'll forget about this movie. I think my record was literally 6 hours with the recent independence day. I was talking to my brother the day I saw it and literally went, "oh yeah I just saw it"
>>
>>71879081
Yes, there's a really forced joke when McCarthy is ordering a Chinese take away about three times throughout the movie, whenever the delivery man comes and gives her her won-ton soup, there's only one won-ton in it, and she sends him back and berates him for it. In the end when they save the day he turns up and gives her soup that's just all won-tons with very liitle soup to show his appreciation and she says "Look, all I want is a nice soup to win-ton ratio, is that too much to ask?" When testing their weapons earlier in the movie they accidentally blow up his delivery moped, which he give a sad "I have the worst luck ever" expression when he sees it.

>>71879532
Not too much, it's actually quite short and as I said there nothing in it that pissed me off, all the reports of jokes about periods, fucking white males and the patriarchy are either not true, taken out of context or exaggerated. The movies pretty bad though, the jokes are incredibly lame, but I have a high tolerance for shit movies.

>>71879677
Very, Very quickly, it's kinda like the robocop remake, where it's so similar to the original, but just worse in every way, but yet not bad enough to Burn itself into your memory. It's just pointless, and never does anything exceptionally well, or exteptionally badly, it's just a worse version of classic ghostbusters that never needed to be made, it's almost beat for beat the same, just with different locations, less likeable characters, worse jokes, and the ghostbusters ghost instead of stay puft. I'll have forgotten it in two days. In a year I'll have forgot they even remade ghostbusters. In the future they'll be making top 10 lists of "remakes you never realised were made of classic movies" and this will be number 3, and I'll "holy shit, remember when they did that?, what the fuck?". Nobody will remember it in a month.

Is it true that they don't really do much capturing/containing of ghosts, and just kind of blast them with lasers until they explode/fall to the ground?
>>
How are the special effects?
>>
>>71881191
Not OP (maybe he can confirm) but my understanding is the lore is explained as containment, then halfway/two thirds through the movie they just start blowing up ghosts, directly contradicting what they had explained earlier.
>>
>>71881191
Yes, this is mostly true, the only time they capture a ghost, is that scene at the heavy metal concert with the winged demon ghost. They capture that one, then back at base they let it out and it kills Bill Murray (I'm not joking.) They never catch another ghost in the movie. In the end when the bad guy opens a portal into the spirit realm and all the ghosts are unleashed on New York, they go to tomes square and fight them all in a relatively lengthy action sequence with their proton weapons. They never capture any of these ghosts, they just lasso them, swing them to the ground and they disappear. Which makes no sense.

Loving the questions, keep them coming.

>>71881237
Pretty OK, all the ghosts are CGI, which is to be expected, like the other GB's movies, the ghosts look really cartoony and exaggerated, so the CG not looking realistic isn't really a problem. I actually enjoyed the ghosts designs though, they're really colourful. The giant ghostbusters ghost at the end looks like a giant sack cloth, a bit like oogie-boogie from the nightmare before Christmas, and I thought that was an interesting choice.

Who do you think the target audience for this movie was?
>>
>>71876912
Is the positive score in RT is justified?
>>
>>71881564
>>71881583
He's not playing his original character though. He's playing a public figure who's sceptical that ghosts exist and is determined to prove the ghostbusters are frauds. He turns up at their apartment and demands proof, they place the trap containing the concert ghost on the ground and open it, they have their proton weapons pointed at it so they can leash it when it comes out, but it opens and nothing happens. The lower their weapons, Bill Murray is like "well, that settles it" and then the ghost shoots out at Murray and throws him through a glass window to his death. Then Chis Hemsworths comes in and dopily says "that man left through the wrong door?" The team looks at him with an "are you kidding me?" Look.
>>
>>71881831
I think it was aimed at young kids indicated by all the low-brow humour, and Ghostbusters fans (even though I think ghostbusters fans would hate it) indicated by all the fan service. I think they made an attempt at making fans like it, but they pulled it off badly.

>>71881873
Not at all. As I said above, for a movie that's supposed to be a comedy, it's really not funny, if you enjoyed the Heat or spy, there's a chance you'll like it as its a similar type of humour, but even then it's not even half as competent as those movies. Very little of the jokes are funny, and with most comedies there are two or three major comedic set pieces with smaller jokes dispersed throughout, here it's just smaller jokes that are rarely funny. So it doesn't accomplish its job as a movie that makes you laugh. As a ghostbusters movie it's just a remake of the first one that's inferior on every level, so what's the point.

It doesn't deserve its positive score on RT, I'd give the movie a 4/10, simply because, while its bad, it's not painfully bad and I never felt any contempt towards it that would warrant a below 40%

OP here, there's also a scene where Wiigs character gets caught on tape raving about ghosts, and it gets put on youtube and it goes viral, they read the comments and it says something around the lines of "ghostbusters, more like ghostbitches." , which is an obvious reference to the less than stellar reception the movies initial trailer got.

One that would make me so all-powerful and borderline omnipotent, that I wouldn't be able to enjoy anything as I'd know deep down that every second I wasn't using my powers to save people I would essentially be killing people through neglect. You couldn't enjoy anything, want to relax and watch tv? There are people dying all over the world and you are condemning them to death, which makes you a bad person.

A friend of mine is a girl, and a huge ghostbuster fan and definitely going to go see it. However, it's because McKinnon's character is so over the top quirky it appeals to her (as someone who is legit quirky)
My sister wants to see it too, but she doesn't have high expectations. She's more excited for AbFab.

It has been one horrible horrible decision after another. I can't believe they went ahead with the release.

The Sony Leaks showed all the sneaky shit behind the scenes between Feig and Amy Pascal.

They took a Godlike franchise and turned it to complete and utter shit.

GHOSTBUSTERS ARE NOW SOCIAL JUSTICE WARRIORS! YAYYY!

The funny thing is that they centered the whole thing around some huge dance scene that involved all of New York, and the ghosts, doing a big old boogie dance to an old Bee Gees song. That was going to be the highlight of the movie!

Everyone dancing and shucking and jiving! Everyone in New York. It's going to be so great!

Good. After reading reviews about the pacing that would have stopped the film out right and really put a nail in their coffin but at least cry baby Feig didn't get his big gay dance number.

Belief in the supernatural is a metaphor for feminism in this movie.
Wiig gets fired for being a "believer", McCarthy is trying to tell her colleagues that Supernatural(Wimmyn's) studies is a valid field.
The whole things is a "THIS IS HOW WE'RE TREATED FOR BELIEVING IN PROBLEMS THAT DO EXIST" shill.

I know BTTF was talked about but Zemeckis owns part of the rights and has said publicly that he won't allow it, that he feels a remake/reboot is completely not needed (obviously he's right).
I know I've read about reboots of Beverly Hills Cop and Lethal Weapon, tho I think those morphed into potential tv shows - and lethal weapon is a tv show now. Damon Wayans isn't a bad choice for Grover's character but the rest looks like dogshit, not that it wouldn't be dogshit just by existing anyway.

I stopped crushing after sometime high school which was a long time ago. When I'm interested in a girl I let it be known, not going to waste time pining, or hoping she's into me too. And no I don't do any of that PUA bullcrap.

>>71884625
You don't go to the movies with a girl you're crushing on unless she knows it's a date. I can help you avoid the friendzone you're clearly shooting for but I don't have high hopes. Chances are very high you're already there and there is a very very very slim chance of escaping that pit.
>>
>>71884905
>And no I don't do any of that PUA bullcrap.
A lot of that is stupid, yeah. But the root of all of it is confidence and not giving a shit, or at least ACTING confident and ACTING like you don't give a shit.
The rest falls into place afterwards, assuming you're not super fat/ugly/gross. And even then with enough confidence you can do almost anything.
>>
>>71884090
Yeah, I read an interview where he said something like that.

No, Feig, they weren't trying to bond with you. They just didn't like you. If you were even remotely like you are now when you were a child, you got bullied because you deserved it.

>>71882026

I know he's not playing the original character.

But Bill Murray always was the one thing preventing a Ghostbusters III from ever happening. And his ideas were practically as dumb as some of the shit we supposedly got in this movie.

He wanted Peter to die, and then come back as "Funny ghost sidekick character" spewing out one-liners and dumb comedy.

It would have been pretty retarded

>>71883770
Nothing creepy at all, if the pukeing ghost wasn't in trailer that may have been a jumpscare, but you can see it coming. The horror has been taken out of the horror-comedy.

>>71883832
Pretty ok, I guess.

>>71883976
It has a few, the one that sticks out most in my mind, is that fart on tape joke from trailer 3, it's just McKinnon pranking wiig saying its a legit ghost on tape, then the fart noise happens, wiig says "that's disgusting", mcKinnon replies, "Would it be more or less disgusting if I told you it came from my front and not my back.", A queef joke.

>>71884226
There was, but it was cut, as test viewers found it film-ruiningly cringey. The remnants are still there though, the bad guy is approached by police with guns in times square, and using his ghost powers freezes them, in the saturday night fever pose.

They don't hate you, they just are establishing you as the prey so that it isn't them.

>Women are funny; it's a great movie

It pisses me off that the first reviews I read were all just the latter, as though we just got over a "women aren't funny campaign" and I need to change my biased views and accept that this movie is good because women are funny.

Some of the reviews weren't even about the movie, they were literally propaganda.

>>71888127
the thing i don't get about the agenda being pushed is we have had plenty of female protagonists and lots of females headlining funny movies. While of course there are people on the internet being mean, that's not how the real world is. I can't even fathom making an issue over a female being the main character in Alien, or Terminator.
Bridesmaids wasn't considered a watershed moment for females in a comedy - it was more that it was a gross-out comedy that typically was a dude thing. Even then it seems like mountains out of molehills.

TLDR: I wasn't aware, and i suspect 99% of normies weren't aware, of some anti-female bias in hollywood comedies until the ghostbusters "issue" and it all feels blatantly forced.

The amusing thing about the calling male fans misogynists and chauvinist is many of them adore female leads in different media. The thing that turns them off is when a female character is specifically made to pander to women. That's when things turn to shit and the female character becomes a tool for man hating agendas. You never see male characters be made solely to appeal to just males. They are designed to be all encompassing.

This is the first time I've posted on this subreddit despite lurking since it's beginning, but I just can't hold it in any longer.
What the actual fuck is wrong with people anymore? From what I've seen, this movie is so incredibly offensive and poorly done it looks like something one would expect from a pretentious art house flick, not a major film studio with a pedigree. Big names from across the industry and even further are piling onto this pile of shit defending it and saying it's the best thing ever while insulting every naysayer with ad hominem and strawman attacks. Just look at what they did to James Rolfe for just saying he wasn't going to review it. I'll have to watch it myself before I can legitimately criticize it, but I have zero expectations.
This isn't a movie at all, but a thinly veiled man-bashing political statement in a poorly made disguise. It's a disgrace to the original, which looks like Citizen Kane in comparison. It'll probably make The Room look like a masterpiece.
All I know is that I'm fucking offended by this shitty movement as a multi-ethnic intellectual gay man who has actually experienced actual prejudice and racism in the real world. It's fucking cancer, infecting every bit of media that I cherish, filling the minds of some of my friends with its sickness, and tainting the creative gene-pool. We need a strong dose of Chemo to rid ourselves of this regressive bullshit before it's too late. And let me tell you, it really feels like the end is fucking nigh.

This movie brings into blatant light the integrity issue with movie critics.

Almost all are claiming that "It's not as bad as the trailers made it look, but it's not great. It's average"

Then giving it 4/5 stars, 85ish/ 100, or A-.

I've seen reviewers go on and on about the jokes missing, the ghosts looking stupid, the plot being dumb, and the direction being off. All while giving it a high score.

It's truely sad at this point.

Bill fucked a lot of things over. He went through some weird revilation after Chris Farley died and wanted to do away with comedy so that people would take him and his career more seriously. I guess it's partcially true that he was being type cast as that life of the part frat boy but the way we went about it was horrible and borderline fedora tipping on how bad he wanted it.
>>
>>71893294
He's still a secretary.

The most ironic thing about his character is that he is literally being objectified, his entire character is a handsome, buff hunk that all the women lust after and make suggestive comments to. He portrayed as a complete bimbo, only there for a pretty face for the women to see. He wears a tight t shirt most of the time and there's a scene where he innocently asks the busters about whether his acting head shots are alright where he's shirtless and they're all like, "wow Kevin, they are pretty nice..."

The irony stems from the fact that the idea here is that the roles are reversed, so it's a man as the secretary now, so now HE'S being objectified. But Annie Wilkes was never seen as attractive by the ghostbusters at all in the originals, she was always just the cynical bored secretary who was never given any sex appeal and none of the characters made advances on.

So they actually added sexual objectification into a series that never had any to begin with, they're literally going backwards.
