As a huge fan of the original movies, I'm still on the fence about this reboot. Your thoughts on this trailer?

I can't stand Melissa McCarthy...
Same. Though I'll probably see it because my wife loves her and Christen Wiig, who I also hate. Though I'm willing to giver her a pass because she was pretty good in The Martian. I just can't stand the way she's 100% sarcastic all the time in every role. It's her one character: affronted sarcasm.Came here to post exactly this. I probably won't see this in theaters exactly for this reason.
Love Melissa McCarthy, love the rest of the cast. Will most likely see this in the theater. Looks hilarious to me. Also I loved the originals with Bill Murray but the man is almost dead, also he likes the new movie.
This will flop hard. This movie will be the definition of bargain bin. McCarthy was good in The Heat. Overall she is overused and underwhelming in comedy. Everyone else in the movie do not look interesting either.
yes does i like itI feel a lot better about this movie after watching the trailer - it actually seems really funny.

This. Rosie Jr. I can't stand her. Movie plot is terrible.
Ugh looks terrible. It doesn't even look like it has a story, just a bunch of bad jokes held together by overdone CGI. The whole "women ghostbusters" theme seems totally contrived and obnoxious. And of course you have the token black woman. None of them even come close to having the presence of the original ghostbusters cast. Remember, ghostbusters wasn't just about constant bad jokes. Bill Murry was really the only main cast member of the old ghostbusters who's role was pure comedy. The others derived comedy from good story writing. In this preview every one of them is just constantly spewing cringe-worthy bad jokes out of their mouths non-stop. This doesn't even seem to pay homage to original, as they seem more intent on "re-inventing" everything with a new overdone CGI version (new traps, new weapons, etc). None of the original cast aside from maybe Bill Murry seems to have any part in the movie. Obviously Harold Ramis is dead but why not the others? Finally, wasn't the main complaint about the 2nd Ghostbusters that the slime was overdone? I guess they didn't get the memo because even just in the preview it looks like half the movie is going to be about slime
I look forward to downloading this for free and watching it while I'm shitfaced drunk, because I'm not sure I would make it through he movie otherwise.
I don't even know who she is.
