Is that the orange, bleach blonde guy who looks like a shitty, smug elf?

Yeah, he lead the harassment campaign against Leslie Jones yesterday.

The more I think about it, Peck was a jerk, but he wasn't wrong.

Yes he was. He was using his position at the EPA to take down the Ghostbusters because he was a skeptic and didn't believe in ghosts. That's why he used the excuse of the chemical leaks when he went to the Ghostbusters, but told the Mayor that they were using tricks to fool people into thinking they were seeing ghosts.
What little destruction we saw the Ghostbusters do because of their equipment was A) just for comedic effect, B) only early on when they were first using the equipment, and C) NOT THE CONTAINMENT UNIT!

Permanent bans rarely ever seem to be.

I don't know that I've ever seen a perma-ban on twitter before.

Finally got to see the movie last night. Loved it, so did Erica.

It is a lot more joke-focussed than the original, which helped me not to compare them as much. I liked the design of the ghosts more than I thought I would, and I liked that they seemed threatening throughout the movie. The cameos were probably unnecessary, but hell with it, I enjoyed them.

I've seen some claiming that they could tell that Bill Murray was miserable and hating every moment of being in the movie. I think that's ridiculous. First of all, I don't think Bill would give a shit about any "threat" the studio would make, the man just does whatever the hell he wants. It seemed like he was relishing the character to me.

I'm sure I have a lot more to say, but its early now and I'll just space it out.

Did anyone else notice the satirical aspect of what Bill Murray's character represents? I mean, right before they interview him (the first (and most important) cameo) the show's narrator says something like with the blessing of this character, the ghostbusters would be legit.


I mean....seriously? BRILLIANT. Fucking Brilliant!

Absolutely. Also he kind of got a wish out of it.

He's been joking for years that the way they'd get him into another Ghostbusters movie would be to kill him.

It would be funny if he came back as a ghost in the sequel.

Still as a skeptic, not believing he's dead.

After everything i've seen and heard.... not sure i want to see a sequel. 

[The Lurker]

I'd like a sequel, but if it means they're gonna use Aykroyd's Ghostbusters in Ireland idea, ehhhhh...
