"Excuse me Miss, do you like pineapple?"
THAT WAS SO AWESOME OMG
ALL MY FAVORITE SNL DUDETTES YAAAAS
I actually think I'm going to enjoy it. It looks fun!
The trailer is OK. I've liked Paul Feig's films and I like the cast, so those are my main grounds for optimism. On the other hand, not like worthwhile remakes/sequels (or whatever this is) are common, so I guess we'll see. Hope it's good anyway, will really annoy knuckledraggers across the internet if it is.
"Excuse me Miss, do you like pineapple?"
Nostalgic nerd says:
Funny lines from the two 1980s films:
"Its the stay puft flour man"
"Lets teach this prehistoric bitch how we do things downtown"
"Ive met some dumb blonds in my time...........only a Carpathian would choose New York City to be reborn in"
"Its every New Yorkers God given right to be mean"
"Thats right, this man has no dick"
Egon: "Try to imagine all life as you know it stopping instantaneously and every molecule in your body exploding at the speed of light"
Venkman: "Right. That's bad. OK. All right. Important safety tip. Thanks, Egon."
I'm not sure about this one.
It might be good, but it might just be too stiff. If the humor feels forced, it won't work.
Some of the trailer made me chuckle, some of it felt forced. So I'll just have to wait and see.
Omg those youtube comments. Oh my god.
The thing currently has upvotes 5,097 and downvotes 4,978. The comments are full of really sexist trout.
(edited this one)
"N***** comedy = screaming as loud as you can"
"Oh nice, a girl with hair that stops at her forehead, 2 fat chicks, a fat black woman, let me guess, one of them is lesbo, one is genderfluid? Sponsored by buzzfeed and tumblr? Comedy died when women started forcing jokes, way to ruin a classic "
"why would them remake ghostbusters with 3 woman and a black man"
"For full political correctness someone of them must be lesbian and another one - mentally retarded."
"This is why women shouldn't have been given the vote. Slippery slope."
etc etc etc
I imagine they posted the comments on their way to the nearest Trump rally.
"Excuse me Miss, do you like pineapple?"
W-wait
People dislike Melissa McCarthy? People think any of those four is unfunny?
I'll maybe go see it, the trailer was just a regular trailer - nothing good, nothing bad. I just don't like remakes in general so I went in with a frowny face.
Of course I didn't even glance at the YouTube comments because I knew the utter sludge that would be in there. I'm surprised any of you did, unless you like feeling mad and sad at the same time.
I checked the comments too, the top one is this: "As much as I love the idea of the all girl Ghostbuster team.. I much prefer the idea of talented writers."
Pretty much sums up my views. The trailer didn't even get a chuckle out of me, I was pretty disappointed. The dry wit of the original seems to have been replaced with a mixture of "hey this is slightly awkward right" and screaming and yelling. I appreciate that's more appealing to modern audiences and I'm the weirdo for not liking that, but I'm struggling to see more than a typical "hey remember this from your childhood? it's back!" Hollywood movie.
