Tombstone Mountain Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 I've grew up on the original and have indoctrinated my boys on it. It's got a shot at being funny as hell. Funny chicks = great casting. Chris Hemsworth is the receptionist. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disembodied Spirit Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Not interested. Women scientists?? Yeah, like that is reality.McCarthy has turned into Steve Guttenberg, turns down no roles, and the jokes are lame.And of course...we have to have the Angry black chick. Ernie Hudson was not angry in the original. He was funny.This broad has made a career of being angry.She is punching MM in the trailer, so expect numerous racially motivated shots at white people, because that is who the audience is and we can't say anything about it. If it's on HBO in the Summer of 2017 I'll take a glance, but it looks average at best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancient Ways Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Not interested. Trailer was lame. Is it simply a reboot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormtron Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 I was willing to give it a chance despite initially feeling like the casting was gimmicky, but the trailer truly looks like garbage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancient Ways Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Poor writing. Melissa M. won't save this one.When/if it fails I hope the decision makers understand this. I'm concerned that the blame is going to be placed on having female leads which I think everyone is fine with, it also needs to be good though.

Turbine Freight Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 The "Is it the hat or the wig?" joke is actually quite clever given the female leads. The rest of it looks rubbish. Also, the black character is annoying already, God knows what watching her for 90+ mins would be like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 If they were examples of the films best humour, then I hate it. If it's a warm up for bigger laughs, then to say it might have funnier moments is hardly a stretch. Wow that sucked. I noticed before it started that it had way more dislikes than likes, and I see for once I agree wholeheartedly. Waste of a mostly great cast. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disembodied Spirit Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 They are also conceding some defeat at the box office.Originally scheduled for a July 1 release, Ghostbusters was pushed back 2 weeks to July 15.This allows Independence Day : Resurgence and Tarzan to grab all the $$$ for 2 weeks.However, Ghostbusters will have 1 week to make up the $152 Million budget before,Star Trek Beyond and another Jason Bourne film are released on July 22.

Shame they can't save it for another date. And I am surprised they are so certain Tarzan will do better than Ghostbusters. I am looking forward to it, but most people seem more excited about Disney's The Jungle Book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J2112YYZ Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 The trailer did nothing for me. Hopefully the writing isn't too bad and Melissa McCarthy and Kristen Wiig are good enough in it to make the movie watchable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, I am dead certain it hasn't, but this lineup I am convinced has more greatness ahead of them! I hope this film is good. I just don't see how it could be, based on this embarrassment of a trailer. Easily the worst trailer of the past year, as far as major release movies go.

Del_Duio Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 (edited) Nobody asked for it, nobody wants it.That trailer is utterly terrible in every single way possible. Do you remember the excitement when ECO-1 flew out of the firehouse, lights and siren blasting?Remember how awesome that was? Yeah, this new crap has none of that in it at all.And I think Kristen Wiig and the 'Hillary Clinton' SNL woman are pretty funny, but this was just.. not. SONY is even deleting as many negative comments about it as they can. You know that can't be good!! Edited March 21, 2016 by Del_Duio 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must've missed this gem: No, The Ghostbusters trailer is worse. It's just this Star Trek trailer is much more disappointing because it's Star Trek. Beastie Boyz doesn't make it cool, retro, or anything but not Star Trek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
