It doesn't look great. Stunt casting plus branding everyone who may have had reservations about casting based on gender rather than how funny the actors are as misogynists. Then there's the trailer, Bridesmaids with proton packs, the black lady's not a scientist for some reason, is it a sequel or a reboot, what a mess. All the originals back but not playing their original characters, how monumentally thick is that.

Looks to me like Sony are trying to bury it already. Fantastic Four's publicity has got nothing on this.

It's no worse thought out and superfluous than any other shit remake though, and some pretty decent comic talents are being wasted by Hollywood as thoroughly as male comic talent of yesteryear. So there's equality of sorts

Ghostbusters 2: The Heretic

John Boorman (the genius behind Zardoz) decides to fuck up the Ghostbusters series as badly as he did The Exorcist series. Starring Steve Guttenberg as the green vomit
 
Looks choc full of stereotypes "I know the streets" and miley Cyrus lookalikes.... I was out at the ectoplasm vagina joke.

Jesus..
 
The new Star Wars is shite too, pandering too much to non-whites and women in the lead roles. Compare and contrast to Part IV (A New Hope) which is a classic and is mostly acted by white Anglo-Saxon male Protestants.

How can Finn be black when we all know the only other black person in the universe is Lando Calrissian?

Ghostbusters 2 killed the series and had they made the third with what's left of the original cast then it would also be a terrible idea.

The original is a classic and Ghostbusters should be left well alone.

They'll be remaking Its a Wonderful Life with a twist next. This one will have two leanians with kids coming from sperm donors. When the family Internet business goes bust and one contemplates suicide God will send a friendly Martyr who hasn't earned his virgins yet (bomb vest exploded early) to come down and save the day.

Ghostbusters 2 was actually good, until the stupid ending.
