New Ghostbusters Film out in 2020

You could maybe argue Fury Road as well, wasn't nominally called a reboot but I think in a lot of respects really was. Questionable whether it was better than the Road Warrior of course as I think both are great films but at the very least it didn't represent a significant downgrade.

I think you also see the difference in politics as well, Fury Road is actually IMHO a far more political film than the Ghostbusters remake with a female co lead rebelling against whats essential a cult of "toxic masculinity". Its a film with some weight to it by an ambitious director, it tells the story it wants to tell and for me does it well. The Ghostbuster reboot though is a pretty empty film made by a not very ambitious hacksih director, its politics really only exists as tokenism to sell the film. Its the same with Starwars sequels for me, very little weight to those films and what political points The Last Jedi makes are feel poorly developed and ham fisted afterthoughts, the main politics involved is using tokenism to sell a product in a cynical fashion and the end result IMHO is that ti actually damages the causes it claims to support.

I didn’t like Fury Road. But I also didn’t really like Mad Max either. I never picked up on Fury Road being about toxic masculinity. But I never really read into shit in movies. I just watch them to enjoy them for what they are, entertainment. I take them at face value. I didn’t think Ghostbusters was about feminism as much as I thought it was just a ridiculous movie with a bunch of SNL like bits they thought were funny.

All this reading into shit reminds me of that Southpark where they read Catcher in the Rye. I honestly don’t think the writers intend for there to be many of the themes that people retroactive read into them.
 
Who gives a shit. His Dad is a legend and the last movie was trash.

I thought it was a sequel of the originals.

An “unboot” if you will, ignoring the new reboot like it never happened?

You don't fuck with classics.
Ghostbusters is a perfect movie. They're just exploiting a name property.
 
Lol at SJW. Thanks to their outrage, I now listen to Burrs podcast. On another episode Bill goes on a rant on Valentines Day. Shit was funny.

Fury Road was entertaining but over rated. People were claiming the CG was seamless but it was really obvious which scenes had it. Wasn’t a fan of chopping the frames either to make the action scenes look better.

You’re just pissed because there was no rape scene in the new Death Wish. And did you also like the Kilmer and Clooney Batman movies? I’m guessing you did, which disqualifies your opinion on pretty much everything.

You gotta be fucking with us here. Nobody has movie taste like that.
Nope, im no longer taking this bait.

First, I don’t really give a shit. Ghostbusters was good, but it wasn’t by any means as great as everyone is now pretending it to be to further their political narrative which is that women are ruining American culture.
Second, his comments were a jab at the remake with women, which sucked, but not because it started women. It sucked because it was basically a long SNL sketch that sucked and didn’t end.
Third, you are bitching about this, but where were you when the Asian chick in the new Star Wars movie was getting racist tweets and everything else sent her way? I’m guessing you were one of the people tweeting those messages.

Isn't your tag line racist though?

I hate that the fact that because this is a “thing,” it will most likely result in the producers making sure that the movie ends up having an extremely strong feminist touch.

Nah. They learned their lesson with the Genderbusters flick.
 
That quote doesn't even mention the previous movie and barely alludes to it. Anyone offended by that is a damn moron. I think it's more likely a ridiculous misinterpretation by the "journalists" trying to spark some outrage for site hits.

They filmed it at a higher frame rate than movies normally film at.

Most movies are 24fps, fury road was 60 or 120 or maybe some of both. Been a while since I read up on it.

He's specifically talking about some of the action scenes, where the movie is basically on fast forward. I didn't that shit either. Very cheap trick I expect from a B movie.
