Ghostbusters trailer has arrived islander Mar 03, 06:12

uh-oh {nm} jwammo Mar 03, 06:18

Lame and unnecessary. {nm} hyperzeitgeist Mar 03, 06:19

YIKES! {nm} RazorHawk Mar 03, 06:20

Something's missing... {nm} billy Mar 03, 06:21

Who ya gonna call? A new screenwriter. {nm} RollingThunder Mar 03, 06:21

What's that? {nm} RamsFan2004 Mar 03, 10:18

Awesome. I can't wait! {nm} Biff68 Mar 03, 06:30

Wow, that's awful. {nm} queensguy Mar 03, 06:33

I liked it {nm} islander Mar 03, 06:35

As a Millennial seven years younger than the original... UConnHusky Mar 03, 06:54

So in this universe the original guys existed... but they didn't have an ecto-1? {nm} RamsFan2004 Mar 03, 06:58

no... this a reboot of the series so the former movies never happened. {nm} RazorHawk Mar 03, 07:15

yet they mention the team from 30 years ago and show the Ghostbusters symbol as graffiti just to confuse me {nm} tealfan Mar 03, 07:29

Seems like they're banking on that happening a lot. {nm} RamsFan2004 Mar 03, 07:34

desperate people do desperate things {nm} RazorHawk Mar 03, 07:39

yeah I don't think the first 5 seconds of the trailer have anything to do with the movie. {nm} Dorfman Mar 03, 08:41

Having their cake and eating it too. {nm} RamsFan2004 Mar 03, 09:08

Meh. Where's the connection? {nm} tatoufan Mar 03, 07:54

Video has 9k likes, 10k dislikes. Ouch. MattW Mar 03, 08:08

oh my goodness does that look bad. {nm} captainadam_21 Mar 03, 08:17

Maybe, they're just keeping the best parts for the actual movie, like most trailers do. {nm} queensguy Mar 03, 08:27

But thats like the opposite of what they do for so many movies these days. Too many movies the best parts are what you saw in the trailer. {nm} Dorfman Mar 03, 08:29

I was just kidding. {nm} queensguy Mar 03, 08:34

Kate Mckinnon is going to own this movie. {nm} HurricaneKid Mar 03, 08:36

Yeah.. Shes the only one that comes across remotely funny in this trailer. {nm} Dorfman Mar 03, 08:39

+1, I think they'll also get a lot of mileage out of Leslie Jones--as long as they don't rely on black jokes. Like her slapping Melissa. {nm} chosenone2oo5 Mar 03, 11:38

My gf was like eh.. I'm like eh.. {nm} Dorfman Mar 03, 08:40

OH NO! Women, the demographic this was CLEARLY made for (not the fanboys who actually pump money into the series), don't want it either! {nm} chosenone2oo5 Mar 03, 12:00

From this i'm not buying McCarthy in the Venkman/Murray role. {nm} Dorfman Mar 03, 08:43

+1 {nm} chosenone2oo5 Mar 03, 11:38

All I know is this movie looks so bad Ernie Hudson must be spinning in his grave... {nm} queensguy Mar 03, 08:50

..... you mean Harold Ramis, right? {nm} HurricaneKid Mar 03, 09:20

I was just kidding. {nm} queensguy Mar 03, 09:29

puke jokes / gross-out jokes = surefire sign of terrible unfunny writing. Especially when they make the trailer {nm} andy007 Mar 03, 08:56

I have found this summer's Pan. What a pile of hot garbage. {nm} Initech Mar 03, 08:56

who is Chris Helmsworth sposed to be in this movie?? Or is he just in it to walk around in a tight shirt? {nm} Dorfman Mar 03, 09:00

*Hemsworth {nm} Dorfman Mar 03, 09:01

He's the hot intern / assistant {nm} RamsFan2004 Mar 03, 09:08

figures {nm} Dorfman Mar 03, 09:30

Clearly the villain. They tried to not reveal too much in the trailer but they couldn't help themselves. {nm} DTshakes Mar 03, 09:27

He's the Annie Potts of this version. Note the glasses. {nm} BSmurf Mar 03, 10:04

He's just another attempt by the studio to draw women into buying tickets for a men's franchise. At this rate, no one will be buying any. {nm} chosenone2oo5 Mar 03, 12:06

Dude. He's the tall eye-candy. Like Sigourney Weaver last time. {nm} jjmarino Mar 03, 14:38

The tall eye-candy for who? The gay "Ghostbusters?" Because women aren't going to want to see the film. It's not connecting. {nm} chosenone2oo5 Mar 03, 17:01

My 16 year old son is a HUGE Ghostbuters fan and thought this looked like sh** {nm} Dorfman Mar 03, 09:03

I found the SFX off-putting. Too much shiny glowy CGI going on. {nm} BSmurf Mar 03, 10:06

Unfortunately--that's the visual cues of the original. It could've been withheld a bit to enhance the practical effects. IF there were any. {nm} chosenone2oo5 Mar 03, 11:40

Besides Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones--this looks like hack soft-reboot work. Everything about it. I didn't laugh once. They're gonna flop. {nm} chosenone2oo5 Mar 03, 11:36

Good lord that looks awful. So of course it will go gangbusters. {nm} Buckee Mar 03, 12:26

Yet an other franchise form my childhood ruined.... Smartlink Mar 03, 12:39

You act like they're deleting the original movie from existence. Nothing is ruined. {nm} Biff68 Mar 03, 13:04
