The first Ghostbusters trailer on Googtube is very close to having a million dislikes. Currently sitting at 986,000+.

I guess a video game where three people compete to see which one is the most gay was DOOMed from the git-go. Probably be able to pick it up for .99 in GameStop and have it just for the comedy effect.

Guess the market for gamers who love ugly, boring, unfunny dykes is not quite as strong as they thought....

No Tanya Roberts or that other later Angel?

Cheryl Ladd took over for Farah Fawcett-Majors when she got too big for the show. She was robbed for an Oscar as Holly in Logan's Run.

No market for the movie, no market for the game. This whole reboot has “stinko” written all over it.

I was a huge fan of the original, and even thought the second was OK enough to watch.

Can’t think of a single reason why I’d want to watch a remake that seems to have no point other than to replace men with women in the cast.

This game didn’t have much to do with it overall. I’m a gamer and Fireforge games sucked. I haven’t seen this one but it was the studio trying to market without going with a major company (cutting corners). This would have happened anyway

My ten year old had zero interest in playing this. In fact he goofed on it the entire time we watched the trailer for it.

Honestly, I’d rather play Duke Nukem Forever.

That happens all the time. Not because of the gamers, because of the game companies. It’s one of the favorite dirty pools, one of the big companies (like EA) contracts out to a small developer who can’t afford to have multiple projects, they feed them just enough of the promised money to keep them alive until completion then suddenly checks stop going out. The company can’t afford to live long enough to fight it in court, they go under, EA keeps all the revenue. It’s a dirty industry.

Like Rush said, Feminism was all about allowing unattractive women easier access to the mainstream of society.

Personally, I’ve always considered the franchise kind of sophomoric and banal, but it was entertaining in its own weird way, largely as the result of the chemistry among Murray, Akroyd, and Ramis. Take that away and all you’re left with is “vapid.” Throw in some misandry and you’re cooking up a sure stinkbomb.

Chapter 7, that’s complete stiffage of your creditors. And we’re supposed to be angry with Trump’s four chapter 11s; he still had to work out some way to liquidate stock and assets to pay the bondholders, just avoided the capital gains in doing so and still maintained controlling interest. Smart business.
