Honest Trailers: ‘Ghostbusters II’ Already Ruined Your Childhood
  |  @   |  

Before we get started here, let it be known that I love Ghostbusters II and consider it one of my favorite comedy sequels. That is NOT to be confused with comparing it to the original, because that’s blasphemy. With the reboot of Ghostbusters (aka the most pre-hated movie of 2016) coming to theaters Friday, the gang at Screen Junkies decided to go back to the first attempt to cash in on the greatness of the original 1984 classic with a new addition to their Honest Trailers series.

Check out here below the Honest Trailer for 1989’s Ghostbusters II, which strives to make the point that this sequel already ruined your childhood (not mine, though!).

‘Ghostbusters’ Might Not Open In China
  |  @   |  

International box office numbers can be huge, but the one market that can have the biggest impact is China. Films like Warcraft and Pacific Rim can bomb in America but find huge success in China and earn enough box office revenue to give studios the confidence to greenlight a sequel. With Paul Feig‘s Ghostbusters starring Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Leslie Jones, and Kate McKinnon hitting American theaters this weekend, it only makes sense that China also gets a piece of that pie.

However, there is word that the film might not even make it there, ultimately hurting its worldwide box office gross. More on the story below.

But if you were among those who disliked that version, a new Japanese pop take on the song has been released that you might just enjoy. You can watch the video below.

Listen: ‘Ghostbusters’ Theme Song By Fall Out Boy and Missy Elliot
  |  @   |  

When rebooting a film like Ghostbusters, there’s going to have to be a reboot of the film’s theme song. It’s inevitable. When it was announced that pop rock punk band Fall Out Boy would be collaborating with Missy Elliott on the track, many suspected that it would have a heavy contemporary mix. And they were right.

The single has just been released and depending if you are on board for Paul Feig‘s vision or not, you may or may not like it. Give it a listen below.

‘Ghostbusters’ Trailer: Don’t Piss Off The Ghost
  |  @   |  

The Ghostbusters reboot has been met with an inevitable catch 22, with an outcry of fans criticizing the film either mimicking the original too much or being too different from the original because of the contemporary tone. There doesn’t seem to be any way that the film can win.

Despite that, Sony will move forward with the new reboot directed by Paul Feig. The reboot stars Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon, and Leslie Jones as the new team who will save their city from what McCarthy’s character describes as “The Apocalypse.” While we have all seen something like that before, we haven’t really seen it through the perspective of four very funny leading female comedians. And hopefully that will dispel any doubts or worries. Check out the new trailer for Ghostbusters below.
