Agree so hard. I actually love the remake just in its own, but I extra love it for taking all the fun parts and leaving behind all the really creepy sexist gross bits out. People just have really strong nostalgia glasses plus they hate the ladies. This movie was never going to get a fair take, but I'm happy it exists.

[(Anonymous)]

I didn't like either of these movies. I found the remake to be a bit more entertaining as it got like one or two chuckles out of me, but not to the point where I'd watch it again. But I can't stand the original and do not understand or get the near-worship of it, it was boring and profoundly unfunny to me.

The villain in the remake made more sense, too.

[philstar22]

Agreed. Remake has issues, but it is really fun to me. And there isn't the sexist creepy stuff to make me uncomfortable.

[(Anonymous)]

I adored the original, but I prefer the remake so much, and 99% of it is because none of the team is a creepy sexist pig who carries daterape drugs and was probably sleeping with his students. And I say this as someone who loved Peter in the Real Ghostbusters cartoon.

[(Anonymous)]

The remake is the only Ghostbusters movie that matters to me tbh. Four of the best female comedians of the time playing a group of dorky friends with nuclear weaponry? FUCK yes.

[(Anonymous)]

I also liked the remake, I do feel like they dropped the ball a few times in the remake, but it's still underrated.

[greghousesgf]

I liked the remake better and not because they were women, I just thought it was a good funny movie.
Also Leslie Jones had very funny lines and her character had a specific job (New York historian) which is a lot more than Ernie Hudson ever got.

[(Anonymous)]

I do still like the original but couldn't really get into the remake - NOT because I think its a bad film, I just didn't really enjoy it. But I fully accept that I have trash taste and honestly I've watched worse and more problematic stuff than Ghostbusters 1 + 2 willingly, so my opinion barely counts.
Perhaps nostalgia and 8 year-old me having a crush on Janine Melnnitz is to blame, but I still get a laugh out of the original movies so its fun to rewatch sometimes (and in fairness, I only watched the reboot once, so maybe I need to watch it again to get it? idk).

[tabaqui]

The original was fun and different, plus Sigourney Weaver playing comedy, and Annie Potts being hilarious, I just liked it. I just kind of 'la la la' through the gross creeper parts, because I want to see the stuff I enjoy, but I wish it wasn't in there (and I hate how ding-batty and weird they made Annie Pott's character in the second movie, and totally ignored her romance with Egon).

BUT - i really liked the remake, too - it was funny and clever and had interesting ghosts and things, and it pissed the basement dwellers off immensely.

[(Anonymous)]

100% same, I was thinking of making a secret saying basically this. Like, it's not the most amazing movie ever but it's significantly better than the originals and I am still kinda pissed they decided to make another movie based on those and not the reboot. Like, I would've actually watched a sequel to Ghostbusters 2016.

[(Anonymous)]

I liked the original, but I love the remake a lot more, precisely because they got rid of the creepy, sexist stuff. I refuse to watch the sequels based on the original.

[(Anonymous)]

I saw the original in the theater when it first came out. Yeah its funny, nostalgic now, Murray and Ackroyd were comedy gods of the time, and so on. I saw the remake on TV, and I think it's better than the OG. I must be one of the few who thinks so tho.

How so? I think it was a mistake to have Zack Snyder do the Superman and Justice League movies, but I'm not understanding what that has to do with snobbery.

Also, Wonder Woman (the first one) was really good and Aquaman was fun!

Paimon always reminds me of Tama from World of Final Fantasy, another annoying creature that would have been more useful as rations.

This brought back memories of me watching I Love Lucy reruns as a wee child with no idea that inflation was a thing, and thinking that Ricky flipping out over Lucy spending FIVE DOLLARS!!!! or some other small (by modern standards) amount was just another one of the jokes, but gradually I realized they were being serious but didn't know why, and one day when my mom was watching with me I finally had it explained.

I've only read her Tortall books (I adore Kel so much) but I just found all four if these in a used book store and I grabbed them and am looking forward to reading!

And really, fuck Numair. I didn't really care for him on my first read through but each time I reread them as an adult I get more annoyed with him and that whole set up.

What was the last youtube video you watched?

[(Anonymous)]

Just finished watching a 2 hour video by StrangeAeons about the drama connected to BitOfEarth.net and feeling like lying down on the floor for the next three hours. Mostly because all of it sound eerily familiar like its was something I heard in passing way back then on LJ, and the fact that the videos ends with 'Oh yeah there's more when Jordon moved onto another fandom' and I'm resisting the urge to try and look up wtf else happened after that bit of the saga.
