this is going to be incredibly lame. None of these women are funny (most female “comedians” aren’t). They’re just going to squat and piss all over Ghostbusters.

***Spoiler Alert*** Melissa McCarthy will play a zaney, crazy lady who is just cra cra in all the wrong ways. And Kristen Wiig will play a moderate one liner jokster who’s hip and cool and who is a total dick. There will be a lot of vagina and dick jokes. And the entire movie will be shit and every Ghostbuster fan will hate it. The End.

There is absolutely nothing that could make me see this movie. I can’t stomach Kristen Wiig or Kate McKinnon. Neither of them are remotely funny. This movie is going to tank.

Oh man, I wish them nothing but bad luck. Horrible, horrible, horrible. Boycott this crap in the making.

What happend to using Gillian Anderson and/or Linda Cardellini? They need to balance the comedians with the more serious actors for this to be a success.

I can think of at least a half dozen actresses / comediennes more suited for this project other than Melissa McCarthy. She must have one hell of an agent to continue getting starring roles.

Note to writers: pleeze don’t write some political agenda into the script. I won’t pay to see lesbians at a party again, or watch Bill murray try to be deep.

When the new Ghostbusters arrive at their first ghost sighting – a tramp is on the sidewalk.

“They were the Ghostbusters, honey. We’re the Ghostbitches!”

let me be the first here to congratulate one and all for showing us how not to cast a movie…comedy is meant to be funny, but it is also suppposed to have humor, which is a very different concept…this whole project seems to be without funny, humor, or a concept…
