Oh, wow. Yes, I remember the part in the original where Winston slapped the shit out of Ray screaming "THE POWER OF PAIN COMPELS YOU!!!"WinterWyvern said:All I saw was the exact same type of jokes of the original movies.Sexual Harassment Panda said:[
I've shown the trailer to a number of people who don't spend a pathetic amount of time on internet forums (like we do) and who don't have much of a clue of the kind of warfare that goes on online over "gender issues"(wouldn't know what an MRA or an SJW or what the return of feckin' kings was) and I gotta tell you that not a single person I know has been impressed by it. The best I've seen is a confused face and zero laughter. Most people cringe at it and ask questions like "what did they do?" and "why did they do it?".
Except this time it was women cracking them.
Note how natural the acting is, how serious the tone is, and that the joke is actually clever.
I don't agree at all. Trademark Bill Murray smart-assery is worlds apart from the kind of shlock I'd say this was. This looks sub-Sandler (since some of his older films actually had a bit of funny in them). This is almost like one of those disaster-movie Meet the Spartans abominations with a Ghostbusters skin, going by what they've shown us.
If Meet the Ghostbusters looks like fun to you, that's you. I'm going to stand over here with all the people who don't believe that the humour or the tone resembles the original film at all.
