That doesn't mean much - there isn't really another big summer comedy

Posted by: TwoMisfits (a.k.a del_SCA_TwoMisfits) on May 02, 13:49 in response to Antibody's post EW: According to a Fandango poll released Monday,...

This is a summer of supers, cartoons, and action/sci fit sequels.

But who knows?  Maybe this will be like Jurassic World last year - big nostalgia, dinosaurs, and Chris Pratt sell a good movie to epic heights.  Big nostalgia with the ghosts could sell an okay movie to bigger heights than it otherwise would...maybe.

EW: According to a Fandango poll released Monday, moviegoers selected GHST3 as their most anticipated summer comedy. Reshoot over weekend. Antibody May 02, 13:37

CINTL? MDNWD? {nm} numbersix_99 May 02, 14:24

Serious question: How many summer comedies are there this year? ~JPV~ May 02, 13:50

Those are the only other 2 that I could think of {nm} shadowking May 02, 13:52

CON4R, MDNWD {nm} RogerMore May 02, 13:55

BMOMS {nm} Antibody May 02, 13:55

NEIB2 {nm} Jay_Beezy May 02, 14:03

BMOMS, CON4R and MDNWD are all priced to open under 15M. Not exactly competition for biggest anything at that level shadowking May 03, 04:14

Oh I'm anticipating too but to BOMB! {nm} Baron_Darcon May 02, 13:54

You don't want a good Ghostbuster movie? I don't understand rooting for it to fail. {nm} Antibody May 02, 14:04

its speaks more about the person than the movie {nm} Moviesnob May 02, 14:07

yes, i do want a great Ghostbusters movie {nm} slipping jimmy May 02, 14:16

Oh I wanted a good Ghostbusters movie, but this abomination isn't that.I want good movies not crap. It'll take 10 years to forget this turd {nm} Baron_Darcon May 02, 14:18

You haven't even seen the movie yet. {nm} Antibody May 02, 14:19

Given how much trailers give away it's not hard to see valid formed just off of them. medv4380 May 02, 14:36

One trailer, 2:30 of footage. It'sabsurd to expect pratical effects in the 21st Century. {nm} Antibody May 02, 14:41

Sadly previews give soo much away in it's trailers if you pay attention. Also SONY'S email breach gives tons of info way explained in these Baron_Darcon May 02, 23:05

Melissa's style of humor is basically a "WTF, really?" & "f*** that" attitude to everything...that's when she's at her best IMHO... tealfan May 02, 14:46

Moviegoers didn't seem to mind a beat for beat remake of Jurassic Park with better CG. {nm} Antibody May 02, 14:47

or a beat to beat remake of Star Wars: A New Hope with better CG. {nm} Antibody May 02, 14:48

I'd argue that Jurassic World didn't have better CGI. It certainly had more of it, frankly to its detriment. {nm} Jay_Beezy May 02, 15:02

You're comparing rehashes of the plot to remakes medv4380 May 02, 16:41

+1. {nm} Captain Obvious May 02, 17:22

No, GHST3 is also a rehash of the plot to Ghostbusters, not a remake. {nm} Antibody May 03, 09:32

They tried a sequel already. Only goes to show how much it failed cause no one seems to remember it Moviesnob May 02, 15:12

I have the Ghostbusters II soundtrack {nm} RazorHawk May 02, 15:15

you dont forget anything dude. your mind is a steel trap {nm} Moviesnob May 02, 15:17

Ghostbusters II soundtrack gave us the hit song "On Our Own" by Bobby Brown {nm} RazorHawk May 02, 15:36

Adam Levine talked about the Ghostbusters II sound on this season of The Voice... (link inside) RazorHawk May 02, 15:38

Yep, I have it as well and listened to a few songs just the other day... {nm} ~JPV~ May 02, 16:06

I really like the Oingo Boingo track {nm} RazorHawk May 02, 16:21

Actual i LOVE Ghostbusters 2!! Long live Vigo the Carpathian!!!!! Vigo the Cruel! Vigo the Torturer, Vigo the Despised, Vigo the Unholy! Baron_Darcon May 02, 22:56

Longer - Turds have Staying Power. 'Battlefield Earth' (2000). {nm} Captain Obvious May 02, 14:23

Yup. It'll leave a huge stain for a long long time... =( {nm} Baron_Darcon May 02, 22:59

Few movies have an awful trailer and turn out to be great movies TwoMisfits May 02, 14:32

actual lack of understanding / intelligence, or sarcastic lie? {nm} TJNFL1 May 02, 16:51
