Good sleuthing, Snowth!

I'm right there with you. Fans are literally complaining that their movies have been "erased." Um, no, it's right there on your shelf. Go watch it, no one's stopping you. How about worrying about the lives that were erased on the news this morning? What has happened to fan culture?

I'm still giving away that Comic Con ticket; I do not want or need it any longer. But yes, you and I are good. :)

I accept your apology. You had every right to state your opinion and I'm sorry if I went for a low blow. You weren't attacking me, you were attacking a movie, and I should learn to let things go sometimes, lol. You have to understand, I have been harassed by supposed fans on social media for...

Please read the article again. And do not ever speak to me again. I'm done. With all of it.

You said: "I would personally put Ghostbusters in the list, alongside Back to the future, Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Jaws, ET... of movies that should not be remade." That is the anti reboot culture she was talking about. And you bemoaning "where it stands now" wasn't about the sexism thing...

Read the article again. She wasn't only referring to the sexism thing. She also mentioned people freaking out over reboots.

His daughter has already said she doesn't like people using her father's memory to bash this movie. The death is what is tragic, not your feelings about a movie. Like I said, if you want the Comic Con ticket, you can have it. I'm done with fandoms.

Anyone want a ticket to Comic Con? I won't even charge for it. That's how little I care at this point. ;)

Not that it's any earth shattering crisis but I probably won't be going to Comic Con this year. I know there are good geeks out there, but right now I don't want anything to do with this culture. It's incredibly sad.

I'll give them the benefit of the doubt a bit and say it's just the latest symptom of fan entitlement, which has been a growing annoyance. Ghostbusters just happens to be the latest victim. Say what you will about Ghostbusters II, but they did try to warn us about negativity. Who would have...

So a fan board just told me, "Don't let the door hit you on the way out." And a few other oh so pleasant things. Why? Because I defended the reboot of course. Has it all been worth it? I just don't know anymore.

Good luck!

Right, it's not like they're supporting the double standard. Abby points out that Erin's questions are illegal (which was my first thought, lol).

If you mean the part about the world having more important things to worry about, I agree. :) All in all, it hasn't been a debacle, apart from some very toxic "fans." A lot of people ended up enjoying the movie, and again, outside of the Internet, people are able to agree to disagree.

Excellent!

Oh absolutely, I agree they are two stand outs in pretty much all the episodes. That was at the same time? Wow, time flies, lol. And Jane Curtin also had Kate & Allie in the 80s too. Yeah there are always those actors who clearly would be amazing if just given the right vehicle.

Gentlemen...you're on your own. :cool:

Yeah from what I read, his parents wanted to get him into a good school, so when the admissions person asked if he wanted to be a priest, he responded, "........Mmm...Yeaaaah....sure." Lol. Still it must have had some kind of impact, looking at some of the themes in Blues Brothers. ;) Yeah...

Yeah I saw that, yikes, lol. Can't say I understand the negativity there, but to each their own.
