no3Ljm Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Ok. Not sure if this is correct: Spoiler So it's basically the kids accidentally loosen the ghosts that Egon trapped underneath in the middle of nowhere and now they need to recapture it?

505thAirborne Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 At the rate movies go these days, especially sequels I have minimal confidence in this one. Seeing Gil Kenan as a writer, I'm going in with very low expectations that this Stranger Things meets Ghostbusters doesn't have dreadful one-liners or moments of "Don't ask how that's possible, just turn off your brain". That said, I truly hope to be pleasantly surprised. I'd prefer that from being disappointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pablumatic Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Weird seeing a Spielberg-ian style movie constantly invoke imagery and sometimes even footage from a comedy of a different genre. If I see this at all it'll be on home video. Not going to pay theatre prices for "Remember this?" the movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny you say that because the humor and tone of the original film was closer in line to that of the Indiana Jones trilogy especially The Last Crusade than a straight up comedy of the times like Stripes, Caddy Shack, The Three Amigos, or Spies Like Us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M'Kyuun Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Given that Dan Akroyd, the guy who came up with the idea in the first place and wrote/co-wrote the first two films has a writing credit on this movie, it's coming from a pretty reliable source. Ivan Reitman's son is directing; I'm sure Jason had his father's counsel to lean on, and hopefully his great sense of humor, to maintain continuity in look and feel. And by revolving the plot around the late Egon's grandchildren, there's a nice tribute there to the impact Harold Ramis, RIP good sir, had on the original films. Looks like they've got a good cast in place, both originals, and new, to carry the torch. I'm looking forward to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danth Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Nice to see Annie Potts is still cute as heck. Paul Rudd is great in anything so that's a plus. Getting a bit tired of Finn Wolfhard being in all these 80's throwbacks. Well...I guess it can't be worse than Ghostbusters 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She’s on Young Sheldon and has looked great there too. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See Corvette Summer if you hadn't yet, she was really cute and young in it. Also starred a very young, pre-Wampa mauled, Mark Hamill too. Kinda cheesy for today's audience but worth checking out to see those two in their very early roles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember watching that as a kid. Cool car to my kiddie eyes (still is), and it had LUKE!! Though, I was always confused about the scene with Potts' character in the pool...

tekering Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 The wand is $125... The backpack it attaches to is $400 (provided at least 7000 people pre-order one)... Presumably, the hose to connect the wand to the backpack will cost an additional $75, and will be a Hasbro Pulse exclusive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
