#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 It's happened very often that some female actress, comedian or presenter caught my eye, I Google them and they turn out to be a lesbian.I wonder what that means....

mstrox 6,651 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Not bad, except for McCarthy who I don't care for. In the few movies I've seen with her, she delivers all of her joke lines like she's delivering the punchline on a sitcom, or yelling some dumb SNL catchphrase.

Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 But as white, priviliged males, we have to try hard to maintain the appearance of accepting these women as nerdy, enthusiastic scientists carrying heavy unlicenced nuclear accelerators on their backs because disagreement with the new feminist establishment of political correctness will result in permanent ostracisation, alienation and exclusion from society. Especially Twitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mstrox 6,651 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Yeah, Egon is the only one who had a "scientist" look - the rest are kind of everymen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,351 Posted January 28, 2015 Author Share Posted January 28, 2015 Melissa McCarthy just isn't funny.The other three women definitely are, but I dunno if they are right for a Ghostbusters movie. Then again, we don't know how similar to the 80s classics this new thing is meant to be, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wojo 2,453 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Well Winston was an everyman, so he's one exception. I wasn't thinking about him with my original comment because nobody ever remembers token Winston. He had a more spiritual approach to the ghosts, but didn't have a big enough part to explore that. Ray wasn't as eccentric as Egon, but he still had enthusiasm for the ghosts. If anything, Peter was bored by the ghosts. It's like he hung out with these other scientists because they all went to college together and owe each other money, but he just wants to get famous, rich, and laid. He's better than this daily ghost business, but he plays along because he's needed. The other two legitimately are fascinated by the ghosts. I admit that if you grew up with Aykroyd and Murray on SNL, it'd be hard to think of them as scientists. The difference is that Ghostbusters was Aykroyd's creation, he came up with the basic concept and Ramis helped refine the script. It's not like somebody else thought it'd be funny to put him and his friends into somebody else's work. That's what this female Ghostbusters is. They're taking four funny women and shoehorning them into an adaptation of somebody else's work because they need a new Ghostbusters team that is 100% gender opposite. It feels like it won't come across as an organic team, unlike the original. I don't know, ladies, prove me wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,351 Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 Official art from the Ghostbusters FacebookI just can't help but think of this new project as a new film cashing in on old film's success, and not a continuation, even a spiritual one, at all. I dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
