LOL everyone at Paramount already knew. And that was last October. And Ghostbusters is totally worse. We watched the screener and it’s a dyke convention.
Ghostbusters is such a simple concept with a ridiculous number of possibilities to make a quality film. I find it almost impossible to screw something like that up. Just get 4 different people together (one being a smoking hot chick), give them proton packs, and capture ghosts. Capture enough a d you piss off a giant ghost that’ll give you one hell of an ending. The new pinball machine does just that with the old cast and it works great!
Star Trek has to be a bottom of the barrel scraper. There is hardly any ad campaign and it’s being released at the end of July. I have a feeling it’s going to be Trek V bad ... And it kills me to say that as I’ve liked JJ’s take in general. However, again, they just don’t seem to get the fact that not everything has to have some kind of overt PC message. Just get a rotten bad guy, a sexy alien chick, some cool ships, and save Earth. Save all the depth for the TV series.
I don’t know how you put up with those dipshits out there Max. :-). Well, I’m sure the pay is good :-). But if I worked in an industry where James Cameron gets accolades for a puke spewing, predictable story like avatar, I’d go on a Falling Down spree.
