Laughing Man Posted March 6, 2016 Melissa McCarthy in the new Ghostbusters. then it might be at least somewhat bearable. still unnecessary, but bearable. Link to comment
Aanchir Posted March 6, 2016 Melissa McCarthy in the new Ghostbusters. then it might be at least somewhat bearable. still unnecessary, but bearable. I still don't get this criticism. It's one I've seen leveled against a lot of movies, not just the new Ghostbusters movie. Since when is any new movie "necessary"? Link to comment
Laughing Man Posted March 7, 2016 there was no reason to reboot the Ghostbusters franchise at all, especially a reboot starring one of the most horribly unfunny and untalented actors in modern comedy. call me cynical, but it just feels like a gimmicky attempt at cashing in on a beloved franchise and indicative of Hollywood's larger problem with the trend of churning out sub-par reboots and remakes of movies that were perfectly fine as-is.

It's one I've seen leveled against a lot of movies, not just the new Ghostbusters movie. Since when is any new movie "necessary"? I think Scythey means more need/want than necessary. Did people want a new Star Wars movie? Yes. But were there really people just desperately hoping a new Ghostbusters film would come out? Probably a few, but not really. I see what she's saying. Was it really necessary to tack another movie onto a dead franchise? 1 Link to comment
dotcom Posted March 7, 2016 ...are you sure about the Star Wars thing? 'Cause, back when Disney bought the franchise and announced they'd be doing more movies, I remember reactions were pretty mixed. I don't really think anyone was chomping at the bit for more Star Wars after the prequels. Link to comment
Hordaki Posted March 7, 2016 Sorry, but I'm gonna stop this before it gets out of hand. I just meant this to be a fun 'what if' question and it's getting heated. If you guys wanna debate the Ghostbusters reboot you could start a topic in COT. But here, I'm gonna lock this post and try again with a less Ghostbusters-related actor. Link to comment
