Ghostbusters: Afterlife

Re: Ghostbusters: Afterlife

I'm inclined to judge it harshly based on the meta narrative of how this was "giving back to the fans" after the fallout from the 2016 film (almost as if the controversy made the suits really take...

Re: Ghostbusters: Afterlife

Well, that's surprising. If anything, the ways in which the film attempts to not only work around Ramis's absence but also fold it into the actual text of the film (especially during the climax)...

Re: Ghostbusters: Afterlife

Already saw this two months ago but didn't think it was worth posting about at the time. Easily one of my least favourite films of 2021.

Re: Ghostbusters: Afterlife

Heh, so nobody bothered to post the scene that went up a while ago where Paul Rudd deals with miniature Stay-Puft men?

Re: Ghostbusters: Afterlife

Definitely a frame influenced by the twin exhaustions of toxic fandom and soft reboots, I'll admit. Hard not to look at the shot of the cover being pulled off the Ecto-1 and being reminded of the...

Re: Ghostbusters: Afterlife

On the other hand, the fact that so much of the trailer hinges on a middle-aged guy trying to get a bunch of kids to care about the Ghostbusters is certainly a choice.

Re: Ghostbusters: Afterlife

The fauxstalgia is what kills it for me. Kinda wonder if it's trying to be unfunny on purpose.

Re: Ghostbusters 3

Aykroyd's definitely figuring out a way to re-animate Ramis at this rate.

Monkeypunch is right - regardless of how good (or not) the remake actually was, the outpouring of hatred against it now has to be accounted for whenever there's a new attempt at adding to the...

It definitely strikes me as one of those properties where it can only really work once like (as mentioned) Jurassic Park or Halloween and any attempt to replicate its success through reboot, sequel,...

Re: Ghostbusters 3

Re: Ghostbusters 3

Leaving aside the idea that the reboot even needs to be apologised for, I question whether a man who filmed three Diablo Cody screenplays is going to go out of his way to appease the Ghostbros.

Re: Ghostbusters 3

To be fair, it is Honest Trailers. Just like Cinema Sins, they point out the flaws with every single movie they cover regardless of how much they personally liked or disliked it. I feel like I could...

I'd advise against having such inflexible expectations. Otherwise, you're just going to end up convincing yourself that it's bad regardless of its actual merits.
