I should start off this by saying that this article was
fueled by at least 2 bloody Mary's, a
strong mixture of cheap whiskey and Root Beer, and maybe one joint. There most likely will be some typos and a
few grammar issues as well. Hell even if
I wasn’t consuming the things I mentioned.
There will still be problems with this article. These are just more random thoughts of a
movie insomniac.
I got this idea for this article as I was watching Ghostbusters. Not the 1984 original, on which is a classic
and I don’t need to explain why it is so loved by many people. I’m referring to the 2016 reboot with an all
female cast. Many people and critics
trashed on this movie before even seeing it.
When they did watch it, the one from 84 was so in graved in their minds
that they couldn’t get past that the only connection between both movies Is
that both sets of characters catch ghosts.
I don’t think the 2016 version is perfect but I did enjoy very much the
story it told. I found it kind of odd
that in the original one, when The Ghostbusters
started their business; everyone believed that ghosts were real. There was only one skeptic in Walter Peck(the
guy who wanted to shut down the storage containment center) and he was painted
as the villain. In the reboot, only the
four women believe they saw a ghost and it’s everyone else that does not. I found this to be a much more plausible plot
and I loved that the gadgets they used were flawed and not perfect.
