Ghostbusters(2016) Epic Rant & Movie Review

[@morgothfromangband6082]

The most freaking issue is that the actresses still think that everybody hates this movie only because women are in the main roles. These actresses are really crazy.

[@blok--head7472]

Here's my idea for a real Ghostbusters 3... The trailer starts with the piano version of the original theme looming over the city, but it starts to zoom into the old abandoned station from 1 and 2, but many years later. Ray, now older looks back on a group photo of all 4 members, to which Ray says "Where have the times gone?" And as the music proceeds to get more emotional when Ray states how the team was never the same after Egon's death, Winston became depressed and was out of contact, and Peter decided to expand his career in television, while trying to forget the hardships of losing a friend. And just when Ray starts to close the building down for good, he hears a loud moan from the basement. He sees what it is thinking someone was hiding in the building, but when he goes down to the old laboratory, he starts hearing a familiar voice once checking the lab. "Long time no see old friend." Ray freaks out from the sight of a ghost, but noticed it meant no harm. Low and behold, Egon's ghost now walks the plains with Ray telling him what he's missed since his passing, but Egon worns Ray of a new spectral disaster that's on its way, and they need to bring the gang back together for one last hurrah to stop the menece, and save the city from a new apocalypse. Ray gets his gear, fires up the rusted Ecto-1, and with Egon floating beside him he states "Looks like old trends never die." *Cue Ghost busters III* and theme song Just a thought of concept, but what do you think of the idea?

or if they wanna do strong female characcters louis tully dauned a ghostbuster outfit and proton pack why not ginene as a ghostbuster she s a female? if they had a good script around that i like different

That would be cool.

[@artofmore7197]

Paul Feig = Michael Bay in reverse when you think about it.

[@1f5sda]

To add to that, Rick Moranis was smart enough to refuse to make an appearance in the film.

[@ramboraph4life]

If I want to see a juvenile take on Ghosbusters...then I'll just watch the underrated 2001 film Evolution with David Duchovny and Orlando Jones. I don't need nor want to see a flick which Buttfucks Ghostbusters by having EVP farts, shooting the Ghost Logo in the dick, and references to 20 other/better movies. Great job on the epic rant. This movie sounds Unfunny as Fuck.

[@christallh24]

FUCKING.WOW! I've never come across another person that likes "Evolution" and thinks it's underrated. I think "Evolution" was an actually *funny* comedy.

[@christallh24]

I wish "Evolution" would be re-discovered, re-evaluated and reviewed. It was silly fun.

[@OcpCommunications]

I will review that after I am done with my Ghostbusters marathon of reviews and videos. I don't mind the film either. I don't love it. But I do find it to be a fun movie regardless.

[@The_Husband_of_Jane_Lane]

I did watch Evolution on HBO Zone (or one of the HBO channels or other premium channels that we have for free for 3 months) less than a few months ago sometime after my dad ordered cable. And the only reason why I did is because it was made into an animated series (which aired 3 months after the film) and I didn't get to see the film in theaters back in 2001 when I was 9.

[@OcpCommunications]

PHILL SHIVELY I don't have Ghostbusters: The Video Game. But when I do? I will try to do a review and play through of it, because I do have a 360 now.

[@Imallsticky69]

Loved your rant! I agree with everything you said. I had a problem with the cameos. Why weren't the actors playing their characters in the GB franchise? They were pointless and completely unfunny! I hated this movie so much. It was a slap in the face to the original GB and GB2.

Well if I did say that? I would be lying. It was not a good movie, let alone a stand alone one.

[@The3ninjakids]

I know, but once this film was released, everybody turned a blind eye on the film they weren't fond of, giving it positive reviews and even a certified fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

[@OcpCommunications]

***** Not everyone. Richard Roeper hated this movie. But yeah, the pass it got for being "progressive" was infuriating.

[@The3ninjakids]

And this movie definitely changes my views on Paul Feig, seeing his batshit attitude towards the hate this film was getting prior to the release.

[@OcpCommunications]

***** Yeah I lost a lot of respect for Paul after the way he handled the PR of this film.

[@SykeMediaTV]

Hollywood should have used the $150 million on writers and directors that are banging on there doors everyday working in restaurants while trying to get there original scripts made into GOOD movies!

[@LeftBrainRightBrainYouTube]

Ghostbusters 1984 was released in 1,339 theaters and made 13.6 million dollars on opening day when the annual average movie ticket cost $3.36 Ghostbusters 2016 was released in 3,923 theaters and made 17.2 million dollars on opening day when the annual average movie ticket cost $8.43.

Loud volume warning 21:15 - turn your volume down before he shouts.

[@Johnlindsey289]

I'd rather they leave this franchise alone after the remake flopped. Ghostbusters never needed to be continued in film. They couldn't get a cast reunion together outside the video game and after Harold Ramis died any idea about a third film should have been put to rest. They had plenty of material to work with the franchise in other mediums. It didn't need saving as a film franchise. It left enough of a legacy as a pop culture icon of the 80s to stay as a two film series. The problem is film studios are too greedy for their own good and think that established franchise films coming back hold some kind of guaranteed profit margins based on brand name alone. Nobody is smart enough to look at a brand like Ghostbusters and properly and efficiently determine the best ways to utilize it based on the fanbase and the legacy it holds. Look at Back to the future as an example of utilizing the brand in ways that don't mess with the legacy it left. They show enormous respect to their fanbase coming out with different merchandise and apparel and media over the years. They know you can't recreate the magic they had so they let the franchise live on through the fans love of the trilogy. Ghostbusters did so well with the video game. They gave their fans something so authentic and respectful to the films that it's such a shame they had to go the route they did for GB2016 in order to bank off its name. I am very thankful the new film flopped at the box-office and how it killed the franchise and sometimes it's better to kill something then let it suffer. This franchise is now like a wounded half-dead animal since the Real GBs ended and nothing else good has came out in the last 25 years with the exception of the 2009 video game and the merchandise and comics by IDW, no movies since then and other games during the years have sucked and Extreme GBs was ok show and this remake flopped at the box-office. You just can't recapture the same lightning in a bottle like the original as the original focused on a brilliant mature intelligent script and reminded how well crafted it is a supernatural fantasy comedy adventure with horror trimmings, a solid cast of talented comedy actors who are given just enough space to subtly give wit around without undermining the world of the story. Has an edge to it in the original as the original is what i call great filmmaking. The new version hits some viewers in the face with painfully forced juvenile Sandler (modern Sandler mind you)-esque humor, a poorly written unfunny script, poor pacing and plus no passion but money grab is. Plus none of the edge of the original movie and a lame villain who lacks the menace of Gozer and Viggo. This shows what 80's and 90's comedy did right, and what some modern comedy is doing wrong. Not to mention shooting the logo in the dick as a bad guy which is an insult to the franchise and there is no passion in this remake and just a cash-grab made by Sony. I have a few female friends who thought this remake was poorly written, sexist towards men as one of my lady friends said it's an unfunny insult to women with such man hating agenda and well i enjoyed a few of Feig's movies, i felt he was the wrong guy for this project and even he didn't want to do it at first but he had to for the paycheck and he felt out of his comfort zone as R-rated films is what he is good at and not big budget PG-13 films as after this flopped, he should go back to original stuff. Hollywood needs to focus on making good films and focus on the new franchises like Jack Reacher, Bourne, John Wick etc. not digging up some old favorite franchises and desperately sucking the dried up blood of the corpses into some focus-group approved poorly written piece of junk. Ghostbusters is best left alone. They should had made Ghostbusters 3 years ago like in the 90's, and now that Harold Ramis is dead so has Ghostbusters. Studios need to rediscover the spirit that made great series/movies, not keep recyling past glories. I hope some people here will understand what i am saying as the world has moved on and some franchises need to be dead and left alone only for the memory of the original to be seen/loved/watched by everyone for years to come on what quality filmmaking is all about and that i am right with my truth about why some series should be left alone as some would and not to recycle some past glories as we moved on and need some fresh new things for current film. Sometimes dead is better like Jud Crandall in Pet Sematary would say and the franchise died with Harold Ramis.

[@1f5sda]

GB2016 deserved to bomb at the box office.

[@nathanforester5993]

I knew it...I just knew it. I knew this was going to blow ghost chunks and I was right. I'm not against the cast at all - there's nothing wrong with female protagonists, heck some of my favorite video games have a female lead like the Tomb Raider series, Drakkan, Bloodrayne and even Primal which has a girl who can turn into a variety of demon forms. But this was a stupid idea from the get-go, I mean how desperate do you have to be to try to reboot one of the most renown movies of all time?

[@tvmattkc]

I understand how both you and Angry Joe feel. Having a negative viewpoint about the movie doesn't make you a sexist or misogynist. You're a Ghostbusters purist, which is something I totally respect. I saw the movie last night, and for me personally, it was a mixed bag of both good and bad. Let me elaborate... Here's what I liked...the female leads (who for the most part were likeable), Kate McKinnon's character (who I thought stole the show), some of the humor, the scene at the Aldrich Masion, the wise-ass college dean, the scenes where they're testing the equipment, the update on the car and proton packs/ghost trap, the ghost "puncher", the scene at the rock concert, the brief appearance of Stay Puft, and some of the designs of the ghosts looked pretty cool. I even thought the soundtrack was pretty good (minus the awful Fallout Boy cover). Here's what I disliked...Chris Hemsworth's character (who's very out of place in this movie), the terrible CGI, the forgettable villain, the lack of competent male characters (they're all stereotypes), the lack of deadpan characters, the lack of subtlety with the humor, Bill Murray's humorless cameo, the fart joke, the pointless dialogue about wonton soup, Erin discussing her ghostly encounter when she was young (which goes nowhere), the abundance of unnecessary callbacks to the original movie, and of course all the lame jokes that were featured in the trailer. A Ghostbusters movie with an all-female cast I think deserves better treatment than this. Having said that, I thought it was just okay...I'd give it a C+ or a B-. I went in with very low expectations, which may have helped somewhat. It didn't turn out to be the complete turd I thought it would be -- and I don't think it's quite deserving of all the strong vitriolic hatred its gotten. I will say that no matter how hard this movie wants to be like the original, it will never happen. The original 1984 film is a bonafide comedy classic that set the bar very high. It will outlive this movie for generations to come. If you want to get a better understanding of my opinion, check out Doug and Rob Walker's review of this film. They pretty much hit the nail on the noggin. They're both fair, critical, and also truthful.

[@tylermane77]

[@DareToBeDeviant]

Bahaha! I've never seen so many reviews for one movie but good on ya, fellow moviegoer. I finally got around to seeing this free online and also wanted something back. The gal I was watching it with had her face buried in her hands a good amount of time it was so awful, unfunny, Chris Hemsworth was unrealistically stupid, the scenes shifted so weird so the pacing was off and things were hard to understand. What an epic fail when this self-hating man makes a movie about promoting woman-power and the result is pissing off women who've seen it. _Ballbusters_ by Paul Feig will not earn (his estimated) $500 million. I heard the merch is being liquidated at super-low prices everywhere. The dolls have more 3-dimensional depth than the on-screen characters did. I watched this movie with a neutral state of mind like I did with _Goosebumps_ and I smirked. Once... with the rest of runtime asking myself "what am I watching?" or "what's going on?"

[@Johnlindsey289]

A poorly written piece of junk eh?

[@jwnj9716]

Nothing makes sense, how the fuck a nerd all of a sudden has the power of Gozer? Plus he is a fucking idiot for not controlling the Ghostbusters to dance or at least freeze them so he can get a better chance of killing them. I wonder when back to the future remake comes out and gets all the hate, what will Sony or whoever the fuck is in charge will say? "Oh you hate it because you don't like time travel" ??? By the way, if this movie never gets a sequel, it will be the next super Mario bros movie because of that ending plus it has the same joke almost instead of pizza, its Chinese food. Super Mario bros is way better than this. This honestly makes all Michael Bay Transformer films look like the Shawshank Redemption. Meanwhile, the angry video game nerd is sitting far away with his beer and watching the movie burn down to the ground. Chop top's movie reference to Rambo 3 was more funnier than anything in this, plus Rambo 3 wasn't even out yet when that joke was made. I can see his version of The Thing 1982, alien men, flame throwing their dicks, only the women don't get infected, blows the Thing up by attaching the bomb on it's penis with the line "No boys allowed". The poster or trailer should say "Man is the warmest place to hide. Stay away from our tits"

What we got was something that had no idea what it was supposed to be, with all the worst aspects of sequel and reboot and none of the benefits of either. [Star Trek is an example of how to reboot right - sure, it's rehashing some of the basic plot points of the originals right down to Khan being the second-episode villain and the Enterprise appearing to be destroyed in the third film (no spoilers, it's in the trailer) - but the alternate continuity of that reboot has been clearly and officially established, and the torch was duly and respectfully passed through the Two Spocks. At no time did it ever shit on the fans or ignore the previous films; it deliberately went its own way and the Classic Trek fans were free to enjoy or reject Abrams' vision as they wished.]

Just got 2 say u look & sound like a cross between Peter & Egon :)

I don't mind that comparison at all. Thanks.

JayDee284 I saw that link. Someone else shared that.

The conception of this movie was suspicious, the marketing of this movie was ill conceived, and this movie was typical feminist/anti-male that should have had only 10% of the budget and written for LifeTime Movie Network.

[@SavageHulk2002]

I actually enjoyed the movie but it's no way better then the original

[@ErebusHellhound]

Me and my dad agreed to wait for the movie to be available on cable.Not on demand, but on a random movie channels either HBO or Starz.

[@thekaratekidpartii2169]

i've almost literally just got out of the cinema watching Ghostbusters [2016] and i couldn't disagree with you more. this film is the shit! and Kate McKinnon was wicked good. really weird and funny and weird again. who knew that in my lifetime there would be a ghostbuster i would want to have sex with :) i must admit the opening worried me a bit, because it looked too small in comparison to the original and the score was overbearing. but after that it was all good. i laughed pretty much consistently but not all the jokes landed, especially the ones from the trailer. . . but i did notice everyone else in the theatre laughed a lot, some like really uncontrollably. and there were some really little kids there and they seemed to be having loads of fun [it is a kids film after all]. yeah, really good flick. also, i disagree about the pg-13 thing you said. i think the 'look! women can be vulgar, too' joke that is popular in films like bridesmaids is really gimmicky and one note; so it was refreshing to see they didn't go in that direction. anyway, always enjoy listening to your funny little rants and good to hear different opinions. keep it up! cheers. [although, sometimes you go really loud and it rattles my speakers!]

[@Vampiranhador]

Why promise a sequel in the trailers(30 years ago 4 scientists/friends saved new york) and give us a half-baked rip off of the original movie with few changes and an extremely feminist undertone instead ? That's just asking for trouble. A 'passing of the torch' kind of film would've fitted the franchise a whole lot better then this half-baked rip off remake. The women aren't really the problem, sony is for lying to us(trailers) and ruining a perfect opportunity to do something special with the great source material the franchise has to offer.

[@Johnlindsey289]

Do you think they should just leave this franchise alone and the series died with Harold?

[@Drixenol86]

It felt like the post-ABC interference episodes of the Real Ghostbusters. More goofy than scary.

[@daverafalko9636]

Rate these remakes from shittiest to least shitty: Poltergeist Robocock Ghostbusters TMNT

[@OcpCommunications]

Ghostbusters/RoboCock TMNT Poltergeist

[@codyw1]

I will never watch any of them.

[@justintahair9119]

love your posters like predator 2 and the blob 1988 i rather be watching those that this

[@bigideas3]

I didn't think it was great, but I don't think it completely sucked either. The balloons made no sense to me, but I wonder if it just means the ghosts found the floats in storage and possessed them? They dropped the ball on that. The DeBarge scene was the worst for me. I can't remember what proceeded the scene, but it just cut to her lip syncing and it came out of nowhere. Completely pointless. Also, I guess shooting Rowan in the privates was more for the humans because I don't think a ghost would have junk anyway, right? Didn't understand the mutilated ghosts.

[@SykeMediaTV]

The problem with Feig is that he wants to be on the other side of the camera .. I have never seen such a celebrity hungry director! ...... and you have been pronouncing Feig wrong! .. the last part is pronounced 'uck' :)

[@StitchRizz90]

It should have been a parody of Ghostbusters like Scary Movie was a parody of Scream.

[@claytoncondo3460]

This reboot should never been made and left alone in a shelf. The original ghostbusters will always be 1000 times better that this insulting reboot. And how come this movie doesn't get any Razzie nominations of 2016? What we're they thinking!?

[@beyondlimitationsvideo]

Pixels? Really... Pixels is an Oscar-movie compared to the Nope-Busters!

[@Rickyroo1980]

I agree, the film was sheeeite

[@jamesmclain1471]

anyone else see a superman symbol embedded in the predator 2 poster?

[@Trippy141_]

Eh, didn't care for it. The original was better.

[@williammason3229]

if you had no choice and had to watch Ghostbusters or Dragon Ball Evolution. which one ?

[@OcpCommunications]

Dragonball: Evolution.

[@totalbadass8358]

Did anyone else cringe during the in-your-face Papa Johns product placement?

[@OcpCommunications]

I did..

[@jamesonreese1932]

lolol this review/rant needs some epic music added to it...cos it was ..simply..truly...EPIC!!! #bustingmyballs!!!

[@DynamiteBigB]

It was an alright rant but you really should edit the loud noises down a touch, as they were out of nowhere (like the siren noise) and almost gave me a headache

[@MenCaveTV]

Our rant is funnier and for more refined. But yeah we agree.

[@bigmetroidfan1263]

Ghostbusters (2016) is worst than The Thing prequel and I can't believe I'm saying that.

[@theprodigalheel3942]

I think if Jonah Hill would have wrote it with a cast like Observe and report it would have been better. It should have been a passing the torch film.

[@samuraijack9956]

Hey man the yelling is too hard on the ears in headphones!! you need to move further back if you're gonna do rants like this.

[@OcpCommunications]

Yeah..I honestly am sorry about that. I either need to get a mic or do what you said...but the thing is? I don't have a lot of room in my bedroom to move that far back...But still I apoligize for hurting your ears.

[@samuraijack9956]

+OcpCommunications they're better now, thanks! Gr8 review/rant btw 👍👌

[@justintahair9119]

sorry bout that if you can it helped me which ever device youhave viewing this is i hope it helps to just turn the volume down

[@justintahair9119]

just trying tobenice and help ya out bud

[@daveyjones5702]

there is a simple explanation for all of this: cocaine.

[@centrevez2075]

the extended cut was way worse then the theatrical version. frankie holtzmann smales.alienbugstomperfan(the original is now an 12 rating in the united kingdom as from 2013)

[@Caretaker6139]

I tried to say something about this movie earlier today about how I felt about it to my friend and he immedeitly talked me down and saying about how if I refused to see this movie than I have no right to say anything about it.

[@OcpCommunications]

Well your friend is wrong and has no business speaking for you if you ask me. You have a right to have an opinion on anything. Including this mess of a movie. Trust me. You are not going to have some kind of revelation about the quality of the film if you watch it. It's just going to be more shit than what you already saw in the trailers.

[@Caretaker6139]

I've heard alot of opinions about this movie and I refuse to give my money to a these people. my main reason I don't want to see it is because, Paul Feige and some of the other actresses took the Anita Sarkeesian approach to criticism and call anyone with a negative opinion Sexist Man-children.

[@Caretaker6139]

not too mention that Ghostbusters did not need to be rebooted, a Sequel would have been better.

[@justintahair9119]

mikes right you friend has no bisiness speaking for you your entitled to your own opinion and thats wahtmakes us unique as you are your own individual person

[@tygerblab16]

I haven't seen it, but I will for free, in the safety in my home so I can scream holy hell! Remakes suck, except DREDD. Very underrated film, thanks to the original that was horrible. The sad part is the material they showed in the trailers could have been written by anybody. "That's going to leave a mark?" They're right.

[@RobRobertTheMusicMan]

Major letdown when the original actors are in cameos as different people. I know its a reboot, but still cameos as different people...ugghhhh. I just noticed that on IMDB.

[@RobRobertTheMusicMan]

You're right about the title "Ghost Movie" That is what I was thinking when I seen the trailer. Now even though there is some real racism towards Leslie Jones, I really think that Sony is eating it up hoping it will give the movie more money from it. I'm too much of a conspiracy theorist.

[@worldstarpictures7021]

What's worst about calling the sexist trolls out (especially for a big company to do that) is that most likely more sexist people are going to rise and strike harder than they do now.

[@MightyNostromo]

Good review. Saving my money.

[@Zorros2ndCousinTwiceRemoved]

You're killing my ears. Other than that, I'm in total agreement.

[@JPerez9011]

Ha ha ha!! Mike I told you this movie was shit. I saw it for free, but paid for food and alcohol at the Studio Movie Grill here in Atlanta. I will let you know that the waitress cut me off midway through the movie, because I had to be drunk to take this movie in. The friend I went with ordered me drinks instead so that I could make it through this shit with an ounce of sanity. God bless her! I saw it for free and I still want the money back that I paid for drinks and food!!

[@tkmairidith3345]

I saw that movie on a sunday and I thought it was ok but it just didn't capture the magic of the original Ghostbusters movie or its sequel some people were laughing at some of the jokes but I wasn't it's just not a good movie but I have to admit I like Kate McKinnon's character I don't know why I just do but the rest of the plot and the movie sucked

[@justintahair9119]

i didnt even know this film had a script you could tell it was improvised the thing is tho kate can be funny i will level with ya as bad as snl is and not funny anymore i rather watch her as hillary

[@Rob1972Gem]

Just like most modern films pore storyline/script just made to make money

[@Johnlindsey289]

Do you think the franchise died with Ramis and anything else after his death is a shitty cash grab?

[@dashdynamite2419]

I can tell by the way he's talking he likes this movie. By the time it comes out on DVD/Blue Ray he will change his mind and buy it and a year from now he's going to another video saying "this movie is better than I thought it was"

[@OcpCommunications]

You think I like this movie? I hate this movie. You must not know me very well. I will not buy this film ever. It's an unfunny horrible disaster of a movie. And I will never change my mind on it. It will never be for me.

[@laurenced2916]

I want to see this to see how bad it really is but don't want to give Sony any money for it. It's a dilemma! A question, OCP. Do you think William Atherton was a better bad guy in ghostbusters or die hard? I hated the way he messed with the kids in die hard!

[@OcpCommunications]

He was a great asshole in both films. As for the movie? Wait till it comes out on home video. If you are curious. Trust me. Don't give this trash your money. But if you want to? That's your call.

[@theprodigalheel3942]

Buy a ticket for another movie and sneak in to see Ball Busters
