Looks mediocre...at best. Looks like a typical Paul Feig movie inserted into Ghostbusters.

As to the continuity questions: this is a reboot, not a continuation. All of the original cast except for Ramis (dead) and Moranis (retired) are making cameos but not as their original characters.
If true, that is a truly horrible idea.

Still holding out hope. And McKinnon as the female doppleganger to the cartoon Egon is the best thing about this whole movie.

I think the only thing that could save this film at this point would be some sort of Ray Parker Jr and Bobby Brown collaboration on the soundtrack

It sucks that these very talented and funny women will inevitably be blamed for this not being funny, when in fact it's Paul Feig's fault. He's a fine comedic director, but his writing is mediocre. They really should have gotten a MUCH stronger comedy writer.

Doesn't look horrible... but I wasn't laughing and I am not compelled to see it.

I think Ghostbusters 2 already proved some things are better left alone!

That was aggressively mediocre. Nothing remotely funny, amusing, or intriguing in that trailer.
My thoughts exactly. Even the music was meh

I can't get over the fact they made Kate McKinnon look identical to Egon from the cartoon

I can't get over the fact that anyone other than myself watched the cartoon--well, at my age. I believe I was around 13-14.

No matter how this movie turns out, its not going to change how people view the original.

I certainly haven't--Teen Titans every Saturday morning with my boys--but, I felt pretty guilty as a 14-year-old.

I was holding out hope and defended the all-female cast idea from the get-go, but I have to admit... this looks pretty bad.


The all female cast didn't automatically make it bad but they still had to go out and make a good movie. Right now it doesn't look like they did.
Really???

There is a lot of room between the original, and a disaster. They could have at least attempted to shoot in the middle.

I'm travelling today so haven't had a chance to watch it, but all I'm seeing on FB is people can't wait to see the movie now.

McCarthy keeps on delivering in my book. When I think something looks dumb or she's done, I'm wrong. Spy, Heat, SNL. She's really funny and extremely talented.
Buuuut this looks bad not s Lesile Jones fan at all. And don't eff with one of my favorite childhood movies.

McCarthy whips my ass something fierce. Don't know what it is about her. I even think she's funny, but only in the smallest of doses.

There was weird continuity in the cartoon. It was made from the perspective that the Ghostbusters movie was made about these cartoon characters who were the "real Ghostbusters". The cartoon characters even commented about the actors that "played them" I think.

I went from skeptical about this to absolutely hell no.

The original was a comedy in that comedians interlaced a serious, almost creepy vibe of a movie with comedic value. It wasn't campy or over the top.

This is campy and over the top. Ghostbusters is not a Saturday Night Live skit.

Definitely avoiding this. Way to sell out Dan.

This movie looks terrible. Like someone else said, the female cast thing was fine, but not this one. I also hate how Hollywood's is taking great movies with solid comedic relief and making them over the top comedies. The first one had funny quips and one liners, not this Bridesmaids style humor.

Much improved fan edit of the trailer:



How is it possible that a fan could create such a monumentally improved trailer? Those marketing people should be shown the door.

For those of you saying you're fine with an all female cast, just not this one...who would you cast instead?
