which would be $780m in 2021 dollars and remains INSANE for a summer comedy.  probably should try and figure out what the next "Ghostbusters" is rather than just chasing these little sugar high imitations of the platonic ideal.  make a thing that will make teenagers pay to see it 10 times in theaters over a few months, dum dums
