Ghostbusters: Leslie Jones Is (Understandably) Mad There's a New Reboot

https://screenrant.com/ghostbusters-3-sequel-leslie-jones-reaction/

“So insulting,” she wrote in a tweet Saturday, adding that it’s like the version she starred in “dint [sic] count.”

“It’s like something trump would do,” she tweeted. “(Trump voice) ‘Gonna redo ghostbusteeeeers, better with men, will be huge. Those women ain’t ghostbusteeeeers’ ugh so annoying. Such a d–k move. And I don’t give f–k I’m saying something!!”

As some may know the all female cast version that came out a year or two ago was a big bomb. And it wasn’t just because they were women. It just wasn’t funny or entertaining. So the smart people are now giving fans what they wanted in the first place.

And of course it’s sexist and bad and of certainly Trumps fault too. Like I always say, just imagine if people said about Obama or women what is so acceptable to say about Trump or men? It’s truly amazing what you can get away with.

And again, women claim they’re the ones being oppressed? LOOK AT THIS ****!!! A male actor would NEVER work again if he said this about women. Never.

And I really like her. I knew she was a flaming liberal but it’s just impossible to watch someone after they say what you already know. Why can’t they just keep their yaps shut?

 

I don’t get it, the new one blew...not because they were women but because it was bad.

 

Not according to Leftists. The movie did badly because people hate women. Because everything is better if we just had more women. That move actually proved women specifically have absolutely nothing to do with success. But the narrative won’t change.

 

This belongs in Entertainment, but even I couldn't believe how bad the remake was - even worse than the often grindingly dull original. The original's only salvation is the hilarious Murray-Weaver byplay; the remake is just a travesty.

 

I happen to agree that things are typically better with more women

 

Things are better when they’re better. Lots of bathing suits are better with more women Football is better with more men

 

Not necessarily. Things were better with Dan akroid and Bill Murray. And they were terrible with Leslie Jones. More women doesn't make it better. Not even saying Leslie Jones is bad.

 

This pig thinks shes better than bill murry? What a joke!

 

You also dont hear christian bale crying that ben afflek was the next batman. You dont hear mark walberg crying about the planet of the apes reboot. why is this liberal trash so entitled?

 

That dude is pissed!

 

Geez, here we are in 2019 and folks are still making a big deal out of "women in roles men played"....ugh, how about making a good movie instead of re-making one? This isn't 2008.

 

The all female reboot would have been wonderful IF it had all been about plot and characterization and humor rather than exclusively about leftist social engineering and justice warrior crapola. It's the same thing regarding the last Disney created Star Wars fiasco in which they urinated on all the proven principles of good story telling to go wide full open Justice Warrior and social engineering garbage with a super woman character who was apparently born with the knowledge of how to beat the greatest of jedi warriors and automatically out fly and out shoot any Han Solo style pilot. These were all stupid decisions made by the upper level hierarchy who BELIEVE in preaching at the audience rather than entertaining them.

 

it sucked so bad i actually wondered if they where trying to go all feminism with it or actually tryd to hurt the movement

 

Don’t get me started on Starwars and all of the BS female empowerment **** they’re rubbing in people’s faces. It’s just too much. And it hs nothing to do with having more women in Starwars. It’s the method in which they’re doing it. Also the blatant robo/human sex innuendo in Solo was just naseating and wasn’t funny like it could have been, along with the SJW shtick.

Okay, now that we got that outta the way -

Let's put aside the inconvenient fact that the guys playing the Original Ghostbusters are just as liberal as that dude Jones and that any kind of plotline or joke in GB3 that even microscopically looks like support for Trump has as much chance of happening as I have of sprouting wings and flying. Let's even put aside the argument she's making - "Gonna redo ghostbusteeeeers, better with men, will be huge. Those women ain’t ghostbusteeeeers’ ugh so annoying. Such a d–k move.” - when if you reverse the genders in her statement you get the argument that made her gender-bender Ghostbuster movie possible in the first place. The problem here is that Jones thinks Hollywood in in business primarily to make some kind of SJW message, when in fact it exists to make a profit. And her version did not. The studio wants to make a profit? Go with what works. They want to LOSE money? Go with Jones. The math isn't that hard. Get Woke - Go Broke.

You're kind of seeing this now with Dr. Who, where you have the first female Doctor, but the writers didn't say "Okay let's write good stories with Jodie Whittaker" - what they did was write preachy, indoctrination-level SJW stories for Jodie. And Dr. Who has always been left-leaning, at least since the Seventh one, maybe before. But it's gotten so bad I stopped watching after a few episodes, and the ratings show that I'm not the only one bailing out on that franchise since they went all-in for the left.

It's possible to have a good, solid, entertaining show that just happens to have a left-leaning message in it. What the studios are doing is putting the cart before the horse, let's have the leftist message THEN maybe put in a story. That's where we are now and when you piss off half the customers out there, they go elsewhere - along with their money. Like I said before - the math ain't hard on this one.

 

hollywierd has always used movies/sitcoms as a vehicle to influence society, today they are 'shaping' the next generation... its why dems love them...

 

Why is this the go to lefty response these days? It's as if you all have no clue what the definition of trolling is.

When a lefty says something incredibly stupid and gets called out for it, that's not them 'trolling' the right.

It's as if your desperate need to insult overwhelms your ability to think.

To the left, the rules are different if you can squeeze yourself into one of their many victim classes. They believe that being a victim should automatically guarantee success.

 

And as if on cue:

Seriously? That's you're ONLY response to the thread?

Someone was triggered.

 

Which really sucks about Doctor Who. I'm familiar with Jodie Whitaker and Chris Chibnall from Broadchurch, a phenomenal show(at least the first season), so I was excited when they were both announced for Doctor Who. Now I haven't had a chance to see the new season yet but from everything I keep hearing they just politicized the whole season. I don't want that. I watch tv and movies to get away from all that crap. When I tune in to something like Doctor Who, which is one of my favorite series by the way, I do it for the adventure and characters.

Now I don't blame Jodie for the show since she isn't the one writing the script or directing it but Chibnall has to go if ratings are as bad as I'm hearing. Their is just no excuse for that kind of thing. The show needs to be fun, not preachy. And from what I'm hearing the series will be taking a hiatus after this season. They need to use that time to find a new show runner and one who understands that people don't watch for the politics.

Also I still want Robert Carlyle for the Doctor at some point.

 

There was a great video explaining why the reboot was so awful. Instead of having different types of comedy from physical to sarcastic to the straight man for the jokes to bounce off the reboot made all of them the bumbling physical comedy types. Also the Wig chick was just ****ing creepy in that movie. She is exactly what I think a female child molester hiding behind some bushes in a park would be like.

 

Yeah I was actually surprised that Whittaker is pretty damn good as a Doctor, better than Capaldi by light years. However, the political hammering that never ends has completely destroyed that show. There has literally been one good episode this entire season, the one in ancient India/Pakistan.

It also might not be Chibnall's fault. The BBC has a great deal of say on what happens or doesn't happen in their programs and all this political bullshit could just be coming from the higher ups in the network.

Dear Chibnail,
Please make sure to put in at least 15 minutes per episode of political propaganda and make sure to hammer it home so hard that it would be impossible for even the dumbest person to miss it. Doesn't matter if it messes with the narrative or flow of the plot just put in in there no matter what. Or we will refer to you as a Nazi and fire your racist white ass.
Lots of love,
BBC Ministry of Truth

 

Capaldi was actually pretty good when he was given a decent script to work with. His first season just sucked because they decided to sideline him and basically gave him nothing. Now his second season he totally blew that out the water. He was on top and gave a great performance. His last one he just seemed tired but I think that was more the Doctor than him. I was happy that Clara was gone but he was given a mediocre companion with Billie. At least he had Nardal though. I loved him.

If you've never seen Broadchurch I would recommend it. Jodie does a wonderful job as someone who is grieving and is angry. You might already be familiar with it so their's probably no point in saying of this but just in case be prepared because she owns her role and it honestly makes you feel something. David Tennant stars in it as well so that's a plus although his accent can be a little difficult to understand at times so you may want to have subtitles ready. And I have to mention the music. Olafur Arnauld's score for this show is just amazing. Just listening to some of the tracks makes you want to cry. It's not an understatement to call it beautifully sad.

 

Yeah I saw the first season. The second season bored me to tears didn't even make it to the third episode.
