Ghostbusters (2016)

[alythonian]

Saw this last night, really enjoyed it. Funny, sparky and with enough links to the original.

Chris Hemsworth as a dimwit himbo is a sight to behold!

The credits were very funny too.

A good silly night out.

8/10

I just saw this and there is an end credit scene that could mean a new movie. Not to be mixed up with the early end credit scenes which has the only appearance of Sigourney Weaver in the whole movie. This is just like the Marvel comics movies where the credits finish and there's about 30 seconds more to watch.
There's also a blink and you miss him cameo for Alice Cooper as they approach the theatre. He's the one running past them and the camera.

Ooh I missed Alice Cooper!

Ooh I missed Alice Cooper!

You really didn't. I'm assuming he's referring to the guy listed as 'Metal Head' on IMDB. Who is actually Daniel Ramis (son of Harold). The only cameo in that scene is Ozzy Osbourne.

It certainly looked like him, with the eye shadow.

Phew. Thanks. I saw Ozzy.

saw this at odeon lest sq (royal circle ftw!) and not even this screen with its great sound could save it

blatant sexist, casual racist, tosh.

good god is it rubbish, so forced, but hey at least it keeps up the tradition that movies released this year on monday are infact rubbish.

no wonder there was no advance screenings for this as proper word of mouth will rightfully destroy this movie.

0/10

Sexist? Because it was females lusting after a himbo? Because the reverse never happens eh?

er

not just that but every male character was deemed incompetent in this movie

A 30 minute video posted on youtube which includes someone calling themselves Angry Joe. Oh well that settles that argument then. Please.

[D-Fens]

Is there an argument? The movie used a sexist trope as a joke, you can see the joke or you can take it at face value and call it sexism.

I thought it took the typical American approach of repeating the same joke over and over until it has lost all meaning and humour maybe that's why some are just calling it straight forward sexism.

But it's not a contentious point, the concept of hiring a secretary based on their looks and ogling them is clearly part of the movie?

[raj101]

dumbism perhaps is the word.

not seen it yet so will reserve judgement till Thursday. Hell the first film wasn't all that though - why we got two sequels rather than simply condensing all the good material into one, that'd be just too common sense to happen.
