While I think the movie looks fucking stupid, this sperging out is getting pretty autismo.

Right? A bad movie is a bad movie, they get released all the time. The fact that everyone is SO against it makes me think there is some misogyny involved.

There are maybe three people who genuinely give a shit about the all-female cast. What's really getting people's crimson-stained panties in a knot is that it's a shitty remake of one of the most beloved films ever made. As it turns out, not many like seeing something they love get skewered for the sake of making a quick buck on the brand name alone.

Basically any misogynistic comments toward the film are made by goons hoping to get a reaction out of the bozos that honestly think misogyny is the sole reason anybody would opt not to waste their money on this film.

Boo fucking hoo. Shitty remakes are done incessantly.

"omg childhood ruined omfg how dare they??!/1"

If your childhood can be tainted because some passable movie got remade into a bad movie, then you've officially run out of things to complain about.

but who gives a shit? The old movies are going to still be there. This one will probably be forgotten in a year anyway.

People need something to gather and bitch about. Though, it wouldn't have gotten this bad if not for the idiotic misogyny accusations.

Which is either an intentional bit of unorthodox advertisement or a brilliant stroke of luck on Sony's part, given how they're milking the controversy for all its worth.

I agree, but it's still not misogynistic.

It's something, because people do not flip their lids this much when any other movie gets a shitty remake.

Yes, I can.

If you're saying it's pandering because they used the gender flip schtick, then EVERY gender flip in the history of film/tv (a LOT) is pandering

you're dumb, but not that dumb

Tyger · July 12, 2016, 11:17:40 PM

I'll be the first one to call out femenist cancer but I don't really think this was femenist pandering.

I think they just thought it would be funnier with all women and they knew they could never replace Bill Murray

It would have been only slightly more notable than usual because Ghostbusters is such a popular film, and any remake at all would have stirred up complaints regardless of gender, but somebody felt the need to call out, "you only hate it because you're misogynistic scum!"

And then it snowballs, and all anybody can focus on is the controversy surrounding the movie, while Sony nods and says "uh, yeah, misogyny, boo, down with the woman-haters, give us your money", when the initial complaints had nothing to do with the cast possessing vaginas.

I wonder, if the film starred disabled characters and turned out to be ass, would there be accusations of ablists hating it?

Just think of it as the Total Recall Remake has become (ironically enough): Literally what?

It will fail at release, get mentioned on the news for about a week, maybe two if journalists and radical feminists put a sexism spin on its failure, and then it will vanish into the depths of budget DVD bins at Tesco/Walmart and be ultimately forgotten.

Not a thing to get in a huge fuss over really.

And it's not now. That's just what bitter preteens on the Internet with too much time on their hands are insisting upon. It's a Ghostbusters remake that's employing a gender flip for comedic value. Not everything is the big bad feminist out to get you.
