Forget Ghostbusters. If Sony wants to revive an 80s franchise, go get Thundercats. 

THIS^^^^^

 

Thundercats has potential for a massive audience thanks to its popularity back then.

I take back all the floppage talk.

. This film is going to be massive, since the hundreds of millions (there were that many, coirrect?) of men who sight unseen hated on the 2016 all-female film for ruining their youths will pack the theaters now that "the real GBs" will be revived with presumably all men (or at least 90 % men) and directed by the son of the original director. No stupid "SJW PC propaganda, no shoving agendas, no pesky women and their cooties." Right? Right?

This better do Black Panther numbers.

Wow, I've always wanted Jacob Tremblay to be a Ghostbuster. Thanks Jason Reitman.

[Firepower]

It sounds as bad as the previous movie. Sony is bullshiting people again, what a surprise.

[Hatebox]

Wait, so it's kids now? The days of cigarette-smoking schlubs who dreamt of ghostly blowjobs sure was along time ago.

Way too toxic now.

That was my bet, that they would try to get the IT/Strangers Things money, obvious pick for the studio, work perfectly with that franchise.

Surprisingly, I'm not mad at them going the Stranger Things or IT set in 1980's as opposed to the 50's route. I mean, why not? The casting must be as on point as those two properties though.

I'll remind those who think that kids team is a great idea (and I think those people didn't watch the original at all) that the original Ghostbusters was about 4 30+ year old males who decided to open business to make money. The idea about 12 year old kids in costumes with proton packs who answer calls and drive a car is absolutely idiotic. It's gonna look terrible and it doesn't make any sense at all. It sounds as terrible as the previous movie, if not worse.

I will imagine no one will actually call the kids and that they will not make a business.

 

That in this version it will be like stranger things, for some convulated reason kids will have to fight a bunch of ghost (say if they copy it to save a friends) while thinking or actually having no adult believing them that the ghost is the reason for the kids issue or missing.

 

They will probably find a bunch of the old adults equipment and just have to make them work again with a little fix and not invent anything by themselve, figuring it out montage style.

kid ghostbusters sounds way more annoying than lady ghostbusters. but they want that IT money i guess.

[filmlover]

Who wants to bet they’re gonna cast Jack Dylan Grazer (IT, Beautiful Boy, Shazam) in this as one of the kids?

Or Millie Bobby Brown. Don't be surprise if any of the kid actors from Stranger Things or IT (2017) get casted in this.

Honestly, her response is just embarrassing.  It's a fucking movie.  The 2016 one didn't follow the original films, wasn't successful and lost Sony a lot of money, plus it wasn't  widely liked by the general audiences, and now a choice to not include it is likened to some of the asinine and pathetic things which are FAR more important that our President has said and done in the last 2 years.

 

Hell, I don't even really care about the new Ghostbusters film either, but man.  Trump and the problems he's creating 'IMO' are far bigger than a Ghostbuster film not including Leslie Jones.

Even Star Wars got nothing on the level of toxicity surrounding this franchise. This is why they should've given it a rest for at least a few more years.

[LaughingEvans]

Wasn't the original success of Ghostbusters a product of the overwhelming charisma that Murray, Aykroyd and Ramis brought, plus Reitman's intelligent way of turning a disaster movie full of special effects into a comedy?

 

If they don't bring back something that good, how can they expect the reboot to take off?

Make her the lead, obviously.
