Re: Ghostbusters trailer!

(Anonymous) 2016-03-05 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
I've come to the conclusion that I might be coming at this movie from a different direction to most people. I see it as an action film with some comedy rather than a comedy with action, so I expect to be entertained but if I don't laugh, it won't disappoint me. I feel like that's what a lot of people are looking for. So many comments about the trailer were that the jokes weren't funny or weren't original enough, and that just didn't bother me because I thought the whole thing looked entertaining.

As far as the TFA, I haven't seen the new Star Wars but hearing that it's basically a retelling of the original doesn't bother me at all. New characters are sufficient for me to be happy, because there will be new chemistry and freshness just from the new characters. I heard that TFA was purposefully derivative because the director wanted people to accept the new characters. Hitting so hard on the nostalgia and plot on the first go-around allowed him to introduce the new characters more safely and in a manner more people will accept. If the next movie takes more chances, then I think this is a good strategy. So, if they do something similar for Ghostbusters, I'm not bothered. Plus, I'm not the type who needs everything to be new and different and "fresh". There are no original ideas anymore. I think some of the story elements will have to be slightly different; that's enough for me.

And, it's been 30 years since the last Ghostbusters. I've obviously seen it in the interim but I don't remember it that well. It will be nice to see it in modern day with new characters. I think it will be fun if you want it to be fun, and you'll find things to hate if you want to hate it.
