The Ghostbusters Thread (Old, New, Animated, Whatever)

[That Chris Guy]

Not even dignifying this movie with a view - I'm pretty sure I'd walk out like I did with Scary Movie 4. I hope it crashes and burns so both Sony and Feig's faggotry on this project comes to a screeching halt.

When your movie trailer shows scenes from the climax of the movie, including the final villain...

Your movie probably isn't that good.

Your movie probably isn't that good.

When your special effects look worse than the stuff from over three decades ago, you fucked up.

Again... this is all for a film that all signs points to sucking shit. Not because of the women, but because it's a lazy rehash of the other two movies that recycles the same jokes

Lazy is the operative word here. Earlier somebody posted Redlettermedia's video mocking all the trailer reactions, but like with most of their stuff, it had a good point. "Protonpacks! Slimer! These are things I know!"
Its a lazy cash grab shielded weakly with feminists blindfolded to this

It's the ghostbusters logo Couldn't they have come up with something more creative?

It's like the film is cannibalizing itself. What a fuck up.

I'm almost afraid to see if the ghost is the full logo or not( the red circle with the line through it).

So I just saw an ad for Progressive on TV...THE OFFICIAL INSURANCE OF GHOSTBUSTERS. They couldn't have made their boasts about how "forward thinking" their movie is if they had McCarthy literally use her ham fists.

Side note, I think this ad gave me terminal brain cancer

This is Batman v Superman all over again: spending loads of money on advertising in hopes it will generate audience turnout.

I bet it will be like Batman Vs Superman because retards with kids will put it number one in the box office the first weekend. After that it will be last in the box office.

I've never seen an article shill so hard in my life.

Buzzfeed is beating off to Sony's money.

For fun, I found the promo for the original cartoon. Enjoy!

I'm curious has any other media movies, games, books, whatever tried to make "fuck you you're all just haters!" A major part of their advertising campaign? I tried to think of another example and couldn't come up with anything, probably because being openly hostile to potential audiences is so fucking stupid.

From what I've heard that was most of the sales pitch for Remain in the recent referendum in the UK.

The last major ad campaign that I can recall doing something similar was the Tiger Gamecom handheld in the late 90's. They didn't market it by calling people haters, but instead insulted their intelligence and called them dumb for not buying a shitty handheld. Owning a Gamecom meant you were savvy, otherwise you're just an idiot.

The Gamecom was subsequently a massive failure.

Well it probably helped that the Gamecom is really, really terrible:

Which is a decent prediction for how the movie will be based on the trailers.

I bet they did the all female cast on purpose just so they could pull the misogyny card at every criticism. It's essentially become the ultimate comeback.

"Oh you don't hate this movie, you just hate women."

What? You guys didn't know about that? The villains name is "Ronin". That was revealed like last year.

I just saw a commercial for this movie on the telly.

I'll give Sony this, they're getting this awful-trailer thing down pat, because it was one of the worst commercials I've ever seen in my life.
