2000-through a chunk of the 2010s were about "rebooting", but little by little some franchiese have been leaning back to "returning" to original continuities/series. A part of me wants to believe it's because the companies found value in the original stories and worlds, but I'm more inclined to believe it's a play off the "cinematic universe" thing by saying, "Hey, why are we REBOOTING these franchises?! There's already a good established worlds to milk, er, build off of. The hard part, an established franchise and world, is complete, we just have to set NEW MOVIES in those familiar worlds!!"
Well Bill, I hope you're happy for fucking with this guys project for decades and having him pass away before doing it... Man, this stings so badly :(
Lol the two aren't remotely close. GB2 is a masterpiece compared to that recent piece of shit.
Gutts was in a few Hallmark Christmas movies as Santa Claus's son.
They are I believe but I have serious doubts he would want to be involved
I watched this in the theature, I wanted the reboot to be good so badly so we got more Ghostbusters, I even wrote a review of my thoughts on it and that there's absolutely a good film hidden somewhere in all of the filmed material... But the final result is absolutely not a decent, let alone good, film as it is. Terrible cinematography and editing, almost no one ever seems to shut up for a second and take the film seriously, almost non of the jokes work, it somehow rehashed ideas more than 2, the score is god awful, Kevin is ridiculously dumb to the point of being disfunctional and the list goes on and on and on.
I mean, we literally had a Ghostbusters movie come out 3 years ago that used CGI and puppets for the ghosts so we know exactly what a modern Ghostbusters will look like. Feel however you want about the actual movie but the special effects were fine. The reason the old ones looked more faded was due to how the film of the ghosts was layered over the film of the actors, something they don't need to do anymore so the effect is lost but they can probably emulate it if they want (I don't know why Feig would have tried to do that for his movie but I could see Reitman doing it for this, he used the original title cards and practical effects for the teaser) Seeing it in 3D was fucking awesome with the proton streams breaking the frames of the screen and making it look like the excess proton goop was falling out into the theater. I'm sure Reitman's kid will do it right.
people can do movies because they like them and not care about the paycheck
