Here's some funny: it's mostly the female movie critics giving GHST3 the positive reviews. How political is that??
And if Paul Feig or Sony wanted a female-led reboot...did they really have to pick a grungy/gritty, '80s sci-fi/horror genre mash-up exclusively enjoyed by frat bros, fanboys, trolls and the male nostalgia engine? With the who's who of '80s bro humor, Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis (RIP) and Ernie Hudson, plus a seductive Sigourney Weaver, an adorable Annie Potts, and a silly Rick Moranis? With special effects, action, gross-out moments.....
I'm serious, stop me any time this is beginning to sound like a chick's movie. It never, ever, ever had women as part of the audience--SO WHO THE HELL ARE THEY MAKING THIS REBOOT FOR? Reboots are made for brandname value! They're taking a brandname and ripping it from the people who originally gave it value: THE DUDES!
It's like selling Disney exclusively for adults! Or Tyler Perry movies for Asians! Or superhero movies to the Twilight crowd! It's paradoxical, always misguided, and has never been okay with me.
I hope the female 2016 "Ghostbusters" flops like nothing else ever has. Worldwide gross: $1.00. That's what they deserve for what they've done to the brandname that can't be salvaged now--at least for another 5 years to wash the effeminate, anti-masculine taste of the 2016 "Ghostbusters" out of our mouths.
Really, in Paul Feig's world, are all men gay, or does he just not consider the heterosexual male's perspective in his worldview at all? It felt purposefully exclusionary towards my audience's demographic, interests, and tastes.
How is that a true arb? If anything, to me that speaks to how difficult this one is to predict. {nm} Jul 13, 19:06
arb in the wall street sense, not how it is mis-used on HSX. You could lock in over $600k (after comm.) risk free {nm} Jul 13, 19:14
The same thing happened for IDAY2. Great for arb or synthetic short @ FILM.OW * 2.7 {nm} Jul 13, 20:56

Right - funny. If you actually do some quantification... Jul 14, 07:34
Doesn't matter. Ghostbusters is for dudes, man! No girls allowed! {nm} Jul 14, 08:31
It's not the fact that they cast women that's the problem Jul 14, 08:54
+1, I welcome the opinion! Here's a fresh perspective, forum! {nm} Jul 14, 11:26
