Movies

Even so, the disappointment registering across all demos that watched it can hardly be attributed to any protected class.

Rumor has it that GHST3's own studio weren't bullish on the movie when a cut was screened for executives. Sony will let the chips fall where they may on this one. And they should. I still hope this achieves a certain level of success, it'll mean a lot for the female thesps not in this movie who keep waiting for their opportunities to shine. 

The official ghostbusters trailer has 104.7k 'thumbs up' and 191.7k 'thumbs down'... has a ratio like that ever appeared on a big trailer? {nm} RamsFan2004 Mar 04, 12:21

Not that I can recall. I thought it was bad when I first saw it at just over 50% dislikes, now it's approaching 2/3rds. Crazy {nm} MattW Mar 04, 12:35

I thought it was bad. The movies from the 1980ths called, they wanted to give the new movie their special effects to improve it {nm} mattep74 Mar 04, 12:46

my son thought it sucked too {nm} Dorfman Mar 04, 13:05

What do the ladies in the house think? {nm} Antibody Mar 04, 13:26

As a girl, I thought it was unfunny, derivative, and cautious TwoMisfits Mar 04, 15:43

So now, in addition to yelling "uh-oh" for SUPE2 I must now do the same for GHST3. {nm} eallensbp Mar 04, 12:57

Well, feel free to short both stocks. {nm} ~JPV~ Mar 04, 13:18

Please let us know how shorting SUPE2 works out for you. {nm} Raven9167 Mar 04, 14:14

Based on the comments, some of the thumbs down is straight up sexism. {nm} Antibody Mar 04, 12:58

Sexism on the internet? Why I never! :) {nm} notfabio Mar 04, 13:04

How are you speaking for all demos? IMO, it looks fine. {nm} Antibody Mar 04, 13:12

if there had been no original Ghostbusters, it would be the next "RIPD" {nm} slipping jimmy Mar 04, 13:14

Disagree, PFEIG-MMCCA team-up has a proven track record. {nm} Antibody Mar 04, 13:16

It's actually about ethics in ghost journalism. {nm} jjmarino Mar 04, 14:09

Not a big movie but the 1st Jem & The Holograms trailer was worse - 1.7M views - 2.2k Thumbs Up 10k Thumbs down. 80s kids don't like reboots {nm} drakkar Mar 04, 13:45

Except if they're as well done as 21JST. {nm} eallensbp Mar 04, 16:25
