This idea has been passed around for awhile & recently resurfaced on SourceFedNERD's review of the second international trailer for the new film ( https://youtu.be/mrgUzxt2rIo the 16:30 mark) It begs the question that, if you support GB16's theatrical run, are you unknowingly giving Hollywood fuel for its "reboot-itis"; a pass to create more (poorly thought out) reboots/rehashings? Think Michael Bay's Transformers franchise. Many often complain of the films' lack of character development & that they are nothing more than big budget explosion parties, but because the past films have proven to be lucrative, they continue to make more [directionally] that are in the same vein as the previous ones.
Could this trend happen to Ghostbusters? Say the newer audiences, despite the overwhelming downvotes for the trailers, see the movie & though many remain at odds with Paul Feig's vision (money talks!) & that becomes the new standard for all future GB-related content? Will it become generationally divisive?
