They are still mad as fuck at James. Some choice quotes

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/19/fashion/ghostbusters-internet-attacks.html?_r=0


>“I refuse to watch it,” he said, sitting with his rimless glasses amid a gumball machine, “Star Trek” memorabilia and bookcases stacked with old VHS tapes.

>Next, I sent him an email. I wanted to know what he made of the furor. His response was astonishing. He was offended by some of the blowback — because, as he wrote in an email, it seemed to him that those angry over his video “have not watched it, or have been misquoting me or twisting my words.”

>Mr. Judging Before Seeing was mad because people were judging before seeing.

>When finally coaxed to the phone, Mr. Rolfe, who works from his East Coast home, did not want to talk about his “Ghostbusters” video, saying he thought it spoke for itself, and he didn’t want to address the fallout. “When people attack me, it’s always about trying to get a reaction,” he said.
Why are they so mad that some internet celebrity don't want to see a movie?
>>
HE'S LITERALLY HITLER
>>
i generally dont mind the nyt but this article belonged on a third rate blog
>>
Because Rolfe isn't being a good goy and buying a movie ticket, which his viewers might consider to be a good idea after they watch his video.
>>
The New York Times is garbage, but I thought this article was okay.
>>
And Sony is still going to be mad until the movie comes out and bombs. Until then, you're going to continue seeing paid shill articles like this one spin damage control in desperate attempts at getting people to talk about their shitty movie.
>>
>It's not overtly sexist - though there are whiffs

WORLDWARIIIWHEN?
>>
>>70855194
This is fucking hilarious because James literally doesn't care about this crap, he's just an autistic nerd who liked the original Ghostbusters movies, now celebrities and national publications are all over him for not liking a movie lol. It's like something that would happen on Curb Your Enthusiasm or something
>>
It's just Sony astroturfing and damage control. Just ignore it because you're giving them the recognition they're looking for. They know the movie is bad and is going to bomb but they're in too deep now and their jobs are on the line.
>>
What I don't get is, why does it matter that some low tier YouTube celebrity is not seeing this flick?

If these people are, as they constantly say, on the "right side of history" then it won't matter whether AVGN watches it or not.
>>
>>70855194

Because he's a FUCKING WHITE MALE
>>
>>70855370
He's obviously a Jew.
>>
>Mr. Judging Before Seeing was mad because people were judging before seeing.

He saw a trailer of all the best bits of a movie spliced together, made to entice the viewer. He was not enticed and decided not to spend money or 90 minutes of his life on a movie he almost certainly would dislike. He did not say the movie was objectively bad, or the director was a pandering hack or anything like that. He admitted his biases freely. He liked the original movie too much to see it remade.

Meanwhile people condemned him as a bigot without watching 30 seconds of his free video.

They're very different things.

>>70855361

It doesn't.

This person was obviously paid off by someone. The article wreaks of so much desperation, it doesn't even concentrate on it's own focal point. It talks about the Digital Age or whatever and it eventually just devolves into making fun of James Rolfe.

The sin that Mr. Rolfe committed wasn't bashing the movie. No, he committed the most heinous, most blasphemous sin of all (if you're a part of Sony's marketing team) - he said he wasn't going to see it.

Love movies or hate movies, these studios don't care. But threaten to not give them your money? That's UNFORGIVABLE. Mr. Rolfe is in a position where his voice reaches a lot of ears, especially in the geek community where most of the potential audience for this film is. He's public enemy #1 in Sony's book. His influence can potentially hurt them, even if it's just in a small way.
>>

James ignored them, made another video explaining why it would suck the day after and it triggered them even further.

It must piss these people off real bad that James ain't responding to their bait. Look how giddy the writer of this piece was when they got James to display just a tinge of anger over the reaction to his video.

Imagine if James was on Twitter trying to defend himself. Or made a respond video to all the articles. It would have been a gold mine for these people.

James just said he likes the franchise. And for the same reason he is not going to see it, that's it. He even mentions he could be wrong or doesn't have a problem with people watching.

It will be. All that controversy is to push the brand name recognition and put it on the radar of people. They don't give a fuck about the quality, the critics or the reception of fans. It will be a mediocre Hollywood movie, like most of them are. They know fans are going to hate it. They are going to make money. Capitalism ho!

Holy shit what a fucking retard. He was specifically saying he wasn't going to review it, because he wasn't going to see it. He saw a trailer, he didn't like what he saw, he's not going to see it, therefore his opinion on it is worthless. Holy fuck what a cunt.

Because these hollywood shills act like these corporate scumbags are entitled to your money. Same way game journos get pissed off when someone doesn't want to pay 60 USD for something that looks like trash with no demo and calls them entitled if a game is bad. You're not fucking entitled to success just for making something you stupid cunt. Business isn't soccer with a participation trophy.

SJWs aren't actually trying to help anyone. They're glorified trolls. They're no different than the common playground bully.

What sucks is that there actually are people who actually DO fight to make a difference by actually putting themselves out there, helping people.

There's people who used to call themselves "feminists" who no longer do so, just because they refuse to be associated with these third wave pretenders.

>>
male or female cast, I'm not going to watch a movie that pretends the original doesn't exist. This is literally fan fiction-tier. Just because it's made by Hollywood and has millions of dollars to market it, doesn't mean it isn't essentially just fan fiction. Only way I would've watched a Ghostbusters movie is if it used the original cast and they all came out of retirement or something.

The fact that you made an all female cast doesn't upset me whatsoever because I've already written off the movie once you admitted it has nothing to do with the originals. I don't pay money for fan fiction.

James probably only made the video to stop people asking him about the movie.
>>
>>70856417
There's a difference, though. Lucas and Hollywood use charity events for publicity, using their time for other things and just giving away the money would be much better, if you actually cared about the plight of the people, but it's also about visibility, circlejerking, networking, image etc. so they don't get much recognition for what they are doing.

Same deal with anything in what idiots consider "nerd culture". They try to pin stuff like lack of interest and boycotting with "toxic masculinity" and a fear of women but in reality it's just the old principle of voting with your wallet. Don't wanna see anymore poorly made remakes? Don't pay for them.

This reminds me of the whole censorship fiasco going on at /v/. Maybe this makes me a loser but it frustrates me to no end that people (female journalists) haven't even played or heard of a franchise before, let alone play video games in the first place, would demand for massive sweeping censorship to everything made from now on. It doesn't effect them or anyone else who doesn't play it in any way, shape or form. Yet they want it abolished simply because it exists. What's more, they think they understand Japanese culture inside and out and can accurately judge something coming from a COMPLETELY different market without ANY social context.

Not really, I hated it more, I was kind of pissed off, now I realize that I was overreacting because the remake is forgotten and the original is still relevant, I was just ass blasted because I wanted a sequel with the original robocop, I was also really butthurt with the Total Recall remake.

I was this way with the Robocop and Total Recall remakes because they looked like modern, slick, CGI garbage and refused to watch both and still haven't seen either.

Ghostbusters having a huge negative reaction is because it's a much beloved all ages family comedy with beloved characters, and it certainly isn't a satiric hard R Paul Verhoeven movie. (btw I think Robocop and Total Recall are much better movies than Ghostbusters)

Honestly, I think it's his tone.

He's so confident, speaks freely, without a script, and has a smug smile on his face the whole time. He looks like he enjoys what he does and takes pride in his opinion, and I think that's what pisses them off the most.

identity politics are just the new face of marxism though. Marxism used social classes to push for wealth redistribution and leftists are doing the same today by using identity politics.

>Marxism used social classes to push for wealth redistribution
No it doesn't. Advanced communism would abolish wages, there would not be, in RELATIVE terms, any such thing as wealth.
The wage gap, which I do not believe in as a form of oppression but the choice of women who don't wish to enter STEM fields, is due to several reason. For example, women who want to take time off work to have children are penalised for a physical difference - you are not creating profit for a company so you do not get money or long term opportunity - this is despite the fact that no one should give a flying fuck about some CEOs profit, having children is a part of nature - money is not. Secondly, while I do believe there is more merit in someone with an engineering degree than a womens studies major, a lot of female dominated fields such as nursing are still highly important to society - and yet they are paid less. I'm not saying nurses should be paid shitloads, I believe people should not being paid shitloads in the first place. Bring everything into the middle.
