Why did Ghostbusters 2016 fail? What happened? The cast was great! Everyone loves the Ghostbusters. Maybe people just don’t like powerful women in beloved roles? HA! LOL!
Maybe… just maybe, the movie sucked. We love video like this one from The Critical Drinker. It’s a side-by-side comparison of scenes from the original and the 2016 remake of Ghostbusters. Ya see, in one version the writers and director do things in a smart, economic, funny way. In the other version? It’s the 2016 remake that well… isn’t as good. We’ll be nice.
So, it’s not about fear of strong women. It’s about filmmaking, storytelling and not sucking.
