Ghostbusters II already sucked so why bother?


It's actually just part 1 that's cool.

Because milking a cow until it dies, sometimes several times over, is what the business of Hollywood is today.

Pretty much this. There's money to be made, so they'll do it.

GB II is BOSS!

Nope. Just watched it again a month ago. It's quite bad.

Just watched it at Halloween. It was excellent.

It was mildly entertaining at first viewing but has little rewatch value because of it being such derivative work of its predecessor and has such a crappy buildup. But if you like it go ahead, like it!

I love Ghostbusters II! I've thought it was a great sequel since I was a little kid, and I still watch it now and laugh hysterically. I've always thought the hate for this movie was bullshit.

"Sure, the blackout was a big problem for everybody. I was trapped in an elevator for two hours and I had to make the whole time. But I don’t blame them...because one time I turned into a dog and they helped me. Thank you."

If you don't laugh at that moment there is no hope for you, haha.

I love Ghostbusters II, and I always will.

I agree, Sut! It was good! The haters of it can suck a bag of rocks!

A properly executed GBIII could have saved and strengthened certain story elements from the second film. I always hate when they give up on a weak sequel. I'm not the biggest fan of GBII, but the lore and equipment expansion of the Ghostbusters was some really solid worldbuilding.
