I haven't seen it, but my brother called me up last week and told me never to see it. His wife wanted to watch it and they both hated it.

The studio deleted regular negative comments and only left sexist and childishly racist comments.


What's your source on this?

This. Plus, if the actors and directors had not been complete dicks to everyone, the backlash would have been lower.



Not to mention that the villain is a blatant "frick You" to Ghostbusters fans as a whole. And this was before most of the backlash, but even from the time they were writing the script that just said "hey, lets make man babies from the internet who actually like the franchise as the villain and make him as over-the-top pathetic as possible. And then of course we'll kill him by shooting him in the dick." He's the worst villain ever in a comedy.

FWIW, Ernie Hudson was at Louisiana Comic Con this weekend, so there was a good amount of Ghostbusters cosplay going on. Few kids dressed as Ghostbusters, mostly guys that were kids in the 80's dressed up. And I may have seen one little girl show up in GB costume. This movie didn't spark any "now little girls will want to be Ghostbusters" trend, from what I've seen.
