About 20 years too late for this


And with the recent track record of Hollywood producing lame to outright awful reboots, remakes, resequels, rehashes, seq-hashes and what ever other form of IP manipulation for capital gain sucked of every bit of the soul of artistry you want to call it, that tries desperately to bring back old loyal fans by spreading the carcasses of old decrepit or even deceased fan favorite actors on the screen while simultaneously trying to appeal to a more modern woke crowd by filling the films with modern virtue signaling and identity politics preaching lacking all subtlety; I see very little hope this Ghostbusters sequel will be exempted from this trend. In short I see no hope.

they might pull it off this time

Yeah...They just might be able to!

I don't know man, did you see what they did with Terminator? And that had James Cameron 'involved'. I think we have to stop tolerating the product they are putting out. I won't see this in theaters, I am not saying we should 'boycott' I just think we should take our business (money) somewhere else for a while.

Yeah, I'm thinking Blues Brothers 2000 type of awful. Even if they do make it lets all pretend they didn't.

Oh yeah, I forgot BB 2000 even existed; we'll probably have to do that for this one 2.
