Movies

Yeah! And what about "Porky's?" Or "Caddyshack?" Or "Stripes?" Or "Revenge of the Nerds?" Or "Weird Science?" Paul Feig = salivating.

Posted by: chosenone2oo5 on Jul 14, 00:46 in response to Catzan's post I think Paul Feig should do Animal House next, right?

He just can't wait to hollow out all bro-humor, belly laughs, gross-outs and raunch--the stuff that gave the movies their very specific tone--and label it the same (no reboot titles--just "Porky's" again, and "Caddyshack" again, and "Stripes" again...), but make it something completely different, so that all the fans of the original can look at the new one, not recognize it, and then Feig acts like it's US who's wrong!

He's a bloody idiot. If he wanted to make "Ghostbusters," he should've done that. If he wanted 4 women hunting ghosts, he could've called it "Busting Ghosts" so we didn't have to see a treasured piece of nostalgia have its name, brandname, its very identity convoluted to resemble what Feig REALLY wanted to make.

I'm not kidding. He didn't make "Ghostbusters," so he should've NEVER called it "Ghostbusters." Period.

Look at the disconnect between what GHST3 stock traders and GHST3 Derivatives traders are expecting for OW. Now that's a true arb {nm} tomcat90 Jul 13, 18:51

How is that a true arb? If anything, to me that speaks to how difficult this one is to predict. {nm} Hersheybar 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} tomcat90 Jul 13, 19:14

The same thing happened for IDAY2. Great for arb or synthetic short @ FILM.OW * 2.7 {nm} stormgod Jul 13, 20:56

Here's some funny: it's mostly the female movie critics giving GHST3 the positive reviews. How political is that?? chosenone2oo5 Jul 13, 23:16

Neighbors 2 Sorority Rising kinda covered "Animal House that was at 120 too delisted at 53..... {nm} Baron_Darcon Jul 14, 02:19

PINK2 - Duh! {nm} dukeness Jul 14, 10:13

No, "Pretty in Pink" is a John Hughes chick flick--Feig is too easy a pick for that. We were picking '80s dude movies. Keep up. {nm} chosenone2oo5 Jul 14, 11:27

dukeness is joking. Keep up. {nm} RogerMore Jul 14, 11:58

Not all of those were dudes movies. I'm female and loved Caddyshack, Stripes, and Revenge of the Nerds! {nm} JDolphin Jul 14, 12:20

Right - funny. If you actually do some quantification... click999 Jul 14, 07:34

Doesn't matter. Ghostbusters is for dudes, man! No girls allowed! {nm} stevie1der328 Jul 14, 08:31

It's not the fact that they cast women that's the problem TwoMisfits Jul 14, 08:54

+1, I welcome the opinion! Here's a fresh perspective, forum! {nm} chosenone2oo5 Jul 14, 11:26
