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

All this retarded stand-your-ground mentality for terrible movie, which includes actual non-related stars and everything.

The best part it's actually more sexist to use the women as a rallying point to defend the movie, since it focuses on them in spite of what is obvious based on the trailer; that the movie will suck shit and be another horrible and lazy remake. If they were all dudes, I'd still call them out for reusing so many jokes from one and two. I'd still call them out for the accidental racism by having the black character be the not smart one that speaks jive at points. I'd still shit on them for cheap effects. I'd still shit on them for having the worst PR stunt outside of throwing a party for someone's death.

Only about 40 more days until reality crashes with these idiots.
 

Another female fan who isn't assuming everything is misogyny.
 

Hipster slackivism at is finest.

If some of the proceeds of the film would go to charity for disenfranchised women, then yes, you may construe seeing Fembusters as a political gesture. But sorry, you're only supporting the fat cats at Sony.

I have a feeling that this film will go down in history as the litmus test for cuckability in the 2010s, much like the Twilight films were in the 2000s. If your boyfriend agrees to see the film with you, you can cuck him with impunity.

Saw this on Twitter. If this is an actual legitimate quote, I don't know what to think. Because it sounds like a 12 year old trying to pretend to be Akroyd.

EDIT: Apparently it is real. Given the grammar and nonsensical sentences, I'm honestly wondering if he was drunk when typing this.

Well, Dan Akroyd isn't exactly what I'd call a stable person.

Aykroyd is a fucking nutcase, as much as it pains me to say it. He's become so disconnected from reality as of late, it's as sad as it is hilarious. To demonstrate, here's him sperging about UFOs for 80 minutes while chain smoking like Denis Leary:


So, yeah. The Facebook post of him defending the movie with the vocabulary of someone who's had one too many to drink seems completely plausible.

He's very, very seriously into the paranormal stuff. As far as I've ever heard when Ghostbusters hits on what's thought of as legit ghost science it's thanks to him.

A long time ago he was on Art Bell hyping that paranormal show Aykroyd had for a month or so on SciFi, and he basically read the sales pitch about it being fun and tongue-in-cheek verbatim, then immediately explained how it was completely serious business.
 
Maybe they're appealing to the feminist crowd. "It's the movie the MRAs don't WANT you to see!"
That and sheer nostalgia and reuse of comedy bits, which is clearly what you need to do for a comedy to be good. I don't see the film bombing because retards will hatewatch it and the international market will make the difference, but it will suck amazing balls.
 
The New York Times just did an article on James, though I use the word 'article' loosely. I can't believe people are still upset about a guy not seeing a movie. I think my favorite part from it is this:

"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."

Keep in mind this writer's coworker called James's wife a gold-digger on twitter.
