Talk about stuff that has nothing to do with Ghostbusters!

The film totally stunk.

But it did one thing. It was so bad that people will now accept a passing of the torch movie because it is the only way we can realistically see the old Ghostbusters one more time.

Before 2016, long before, I used to occasionally look on forums for news of hellbent and other ideas for Ghostbusters and the general consensus was 'oh no! No passing of the torch! The originals or nothing!! No will ferrel or Vince Vaughn etc al...nobody but the originals!!!'

Now, without the 2016 pile of crap, people would NEVER accept a bunch of kids as Ghostbusters, especially not a little girl as the main character!

But after 2016...this all comes as a relief, as it is being done with even greater care to get it right, and be as close in tone to the original as possible. I doubt that they would have tried so hard to get the retro goodness of afterlife if it were not for 2016...they would have updated it and yes, probably put Jack black or someone in it.

Now that we get the originals back it's great.

Plus, personally I think it might turn out to be a very smart move, because those kids will grow up quick and they will be more adult in the sequels, like Harry potter, and they have plenty of years to stay with the franchise and do sequels if people like it.

People like stranger things, and the movie is largely for kids after all, so these things attracting them will only be a good thing...plus they recognise ant Man from marval. Kids don't really know about Ghostbusters these days, it was a hell of a long time ago. And for the adults, we love it so we will go see it. Parents and kids will be happy to go to the theatre.

The 'nostalgia' is also a good thing, because this will be introducing this world to a younger audience, so reitman obviously wants them to see in this all the things that we saw in the original that made it great. Many kids won't have seen the original so in a way, this is a remake, without being so, that can show newcomers the elements of Ghostbusters, while all the nostalgia will also be great for fans of the original because..well, it was all great stuff...who doesn't want to see more terror dogs or stay puft?;

Also, with the original Ghostbusters being old and having less screen time, it helps with passing of the torch because if we are not seeing so much of Bill Murray and co, we can at least see plenty of the same monsters and they were characters too.
