First off, this is discussion only. Any fighting or name calling and I'll have this post locked. No one's opinion is more important than anyone else's. Please be respectful!
Something occurred to me. Over the course of this year so far it seems that a lot of people have become more vocal about their displeasure of Ghostbusters 2. Now as an 80's child I love the sequel and enjoy it more the older I get. However, I'll admit the film has it's flaws. The plot is more or less a rehash of the original. But there are still a lot of great jokes (Murray is in fine form here) and Peter MacNichol is wonderful as Janosz plus let's not forget the impact that it had for those of us who cosplay: a variant uniform with different patches and accessories, the giga meter and lastly the Slimeblower.
But in the recent months leading up to and surrounding the release of Answer The Call, it seems that the GB 2 hate train pulled out of the station when people became critical (not trolls but those with rational critique) of the reboot. So if so many, that claim in their eyes, that they love the original but dislike the sequel that's made by the same cast and crew, be so desperate for a sequel to ATC when if the original crew couldn't make a good sequel, why would Feig and Company fare better?
Again no mud slinging but good discussion!
