I don't care that it was pre-packaged nostalgia, it did a great job of honouring the past while setting up the future, which is what it was meant to do. And the problem with 2016 wasn't their gender, it was that it had literally none of the elements that made the original movies great: the dry, sardonic comedy played straight, the elements of genuine horror/fright, zero ties to the original movies/stories, wasted cameos where they don't even play their characters (and were forced to be there), etc. I really wish people would stop perpetuating the idea that the hate for 2016 is purely gender based.

For me, this was a really perfectly timed comeback, my dad and I watched and quoted Ghostbusters constantly when I was growing up. And we even talked about going to see this when it came out, he died last year and I just got brave enough to watch this. Needless to say the end absolutely destroyed me. I wish I could see my dad one more time . So while everyone else thought this movie was just ok, I think il always have a soft spot for it.

I didn't mind the movie, but I did feel disappointed. The film was a rehash of the first one instead of exploring new ideas and using ideas from RGB. And there wasn't much chaos with ghosts chasing people around. And there was no Kylie Griffin!

What they did for Harold Ramis was absolutely brilliant! To including him like that was very touching. I was a young kid when I watched Ghostbusters with my mother. Now I watched Ghostbusters Afterlife with my young kid. She loved it. Plus with my mother having passed away recently....yeah I lost it at the end. I didn't understand the end credit scene though. He was standing back in an old dusty firehouse. Didn't Dan say the firehouse was converted into a Starbucks?

I don’t go to the movie theater all that often. It isn’t worth it to me. I usually wait five to ten years to see something on DVD. This was the only movie I saw in theaters that year. I think it was the first one I saw in theaters in about three years. Absolutely worth it. Watched the first one with my mom a few days prior since somehow she’d never seen it and then we watched this one together. So good.

[@vullord666]

@@AregPone that's exactly why they weren't funny though. "Dad jokes" are only funny with the right crowd of friends and then only because you made them and everyone knows it's bad. If you aren't laughing before you've even said it and your friends aren't laughing in pure anticipation knowing you'll say it, then it's not the right environment for the dad joke to be funny. I have agree with honest trailers here. Her jokes are good dependent only on the supporting characters and their dynamics, which wasn't there for all the jokes.
