What gets me is that it's Ghostbusters in name only. The universe is rebooted, so ghosts aren't known to the public, none of the original cast is appearing, and from what the director's said he's trying to make it scarier, which wasn't what the original intent of the franchise was. The series was meant to be a comedy first. As well, all four of the actresses are comediennes, which sort of takes away from the idea of having a straight man to set up the comedy, not to say it's impossible one of them could play that role.

In general, it feels less like Ghostbusters and more like "let's take the basic idea of hunting ghosts in New York and sell it with a money-making label." I just hope I'm proven wrong and it turns out alright. The last thing I want is a Ghostbusters movie failing.
