mstrox 6,651 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 It's the best possible trailer based on what I expected from the director and cast. Wiig was Wiig. McCarthy was McCarthy but not completely off the rails. McKinnon and Jones look to be amazing. It looks like an expensive movie. Slimer was there. There was some giant lumbering ghost. Should be fun. I don't know how I feel about the "possession" angle, but it happened in both of the previous GB movies (Dana/Louis and Janosz) so I guess we'll see how it plays out.

Brónach 1,302 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I'll never understand the "let's retain the wrong elements" type of remakes. For example, why does tnis need a sort of "origin story of the team". Why don't you start in media res with, I don't know, "there's these four and they catch ghosts", and then go forward from THAT point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brónach 1,302 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 And will they manage to create from scratch a team chemistry not very noticeable in the original to start with? And can the ghosts or whatever be scary for once? Remember when Cuarón put extreme creepy into a children's fantasy adventure? What about this? The blonde actress would look sexier if they didn't force it in and make her lick the weapon. Also I bet they made the four straight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, they're like eleven minutes long. At first they're like little sketches for a while until they start getting intertwined and the arc can go forward.

mstrox 6,651 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Yeah, typical season of a half hour cartoon is 26 episodes, and the typical season of a shorter cartoon (such as Steven Universe, Teen Titans Go, etc) is 52. They'll traditionally air two episodes together in a half-hour block. A lot of the older NickToons were like that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giftheck 916 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Slimer and the "thirty years ago" thing... you mean to tell me... the first two films still happened in this timeline, yet the original actors are not playing their original roles any more?

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Would that be more acceptable if it had taken place in a "new" timeline? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giftheck 916 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Well, yes. Placing it in the old continuity rather than in a new one makes it harder to believe that they are playing new characters. One actor you can pass off. The whole cast bar three (Harold Ramis, Rick Moranis and Dickless), and you're asking for an extreme suspension of disbelief. It would be easier to accept in a new continuity is what I'm saying. However, I must say aside from my issues with that, the trailer looks... I don't know, it almost looks like a dumb popcorn movie, one I might see just to laugh at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's even more of a shame in this case because the original movie was genuinely creepy and not a kids film. The opening library scene was truly frightening, obviously the things going on in Dana's apartment, and even the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man, despite his silliness, had a bit of evil going on. Also, Winston wasn't a scientist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
