New, new, Ghostbusters movie

[masraum]

Looks like this one is supposed to be 2 generations after the original, Egon Spengler's grandkid.

That's been on hold for like 1.5 years

I have hope. But Hollywood has screwed me so many times before.

Filmed near my place. A bunch was filmed at the Turner Valley gas plant.

[svandamme]

looks bad even in the trailer.
Where's the humor
bad cgi
kids? it's a kids movie now? (as if previous experiment as a chick movie wasn't bad enough)

Just more proof, Hollywood has run out of ideas, and just films the same plot with different actors, but way cheaper actors, as in less talent.

What made the original movie so good was how the actors merged into the characters. Today’s movies have to be politically correct and woke.

Which has been going on for 100 years. Lots of older movies are clones of even older movies. Most plots have been done at some point below. Sure, some are more blantant than others.

Music is the same. New song comes out today that's a cover of a song from the 60s or 70 or 80s, but then if you research, that song was a cover of a song from the 50s.

One of the things I like about the British TV shows is the plots are not all the same thing over and over. Dr. Who has some great villains, like a statue that creeps up on you only when you are not looking at it. If you watch it, it can't move. Of an alien that you instantly forget you ever saw the second you are not watching it.

Parent trap is one of the most overmade movies. Completely ruined from the original story.

As for music. You can only rap about taking xanax/drugs, sex and cash so many times.

I never saw the first one, and I'm a film freak. Just didn't seem like my kind of flick.

[GH85Carrera]

The original Ghostbusters is great with talented actors, and of course Sigourney Weaver. Many truly funny moments.

[stevej37]

It looks just like Poltergeist IV

Rental at best.......or wait for the freebie on Prime.

[rusnak]

I liked the trailer. But I really loved the original, so probably it's nostalgic for me.
