This isn’t a sequel to the 1984 film. It’s a sequel to spinoff merchandising objects and the coddled memories of kids who were too young to understand that the “Keymaster” and “Gatekeeper” bit was a sex joke. It strip-mines a nostalgia for something that never existed, as calculatedly phony as the ersatz Americana setting, shot in Alberta, Canada. “Ghostbusters: Afterlife” treats with pseudo-religious reverence the events of a movie in which a ghost blew Dan Aykroyd in a firehouse.
Fuckin Brutal. Ban all fandoms why do they keep trying to make sequels and shit to a two hour SNL sketch that has never worked outside of that one movie
a movie in which a ghost blew Dan Aykroyd in a firehouse
skull vodka man didn’t get head from a ghost, he only had a dream of getting it. His work was taking all his time, he was sexually frustrated, he had a sex dream. It had ghosts because he works with ghosts, that’s it. He didn’t actually have sex with a ghost.
Also it wasn’t in a firehouse. He was sleeping in a firehouse, but in the dream he was in some kind of haunted mansion.
I will stan the genderbent Ghostbusters film because it did new and interesting things. It wasn’t great. But really, the first wasn’t either. Being funny and interesting is enough though so it’s fine.
I am sad that this is not just a live action remake of the eXtreme Ghostbusters though
I don’t stan anything Ghostbusters related. They are all bad except the one movie in the 80’s and I wish people weren’t so bloody attached to the security blanket of “franchise” that you can’t market a big movie anymore unless it’s already based on something
Nah, the 80s one is bad to. It was just bad in ways we didn’t recognize as children. It was also good. Same with 2, and genderbent.
The genderbent one did capture the SNL vibe. Which is bad. On the good side it did a bunch of cool stuff with cinematography and wiriting especially in reguards to female characters that I don’t think has been matched yet. So it is cool it exists just so some future filmmaker can have those shots in their brain.
Aaaahahaha
:le-pol-face: “But it’s still better then the all-female Ghostbusters!” sniffs own farts
Why is there an ad for DualSense controllers at the end of the trailer 😆
