>It was only because I knew these girls were funny. When you see the film, and you’ll delight in the film, it sort of rumbles along in the beginning. And you go ‘Oh God, are they gonna be able to pull this off?’ Believe me, I feel like a stepfather to the whole thing. But there is just no quit in these girls…
What did he mean by this?
He meant "Please don't ruin my life Sony, I already hate it as it is"
/thread
bill murray is actually hell
more like "Please empty the wheelbarrow full of money directly into my trunk, Sony"
>you’ll delight in the film
rip in pea groundhog man
Why didn't they use actually funny comediennes like Sarah Silverman, Tina Fey, and Amy Poehler?
aw hell naw
Who has the Murray webm after they showed that cringe bad clip?
sony let it become a paul feig vanity project because they really wanted ivan reitman not to do it for some reason
Because the bigger names likely knew what a hornets nest they'd be kicking over
Do Americans really find Tina Fey to be hilarious?
They mention her every time to defend women being funny.

This movie looks so shit
>doesn't want to be involved with the movie
>Bernstein tells him he is going to sue his ass if he doesn't promote it
Well, the leaks were right
youtube.com
FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAART!
These grills are hiiiiii-larious!
She wrote the SNL sketch where Tim meadows is the census taker and has to interview Christopher walken
Don't talk shit about my waifu you little shit, I will find you and kill you
Objectively speaking, if somehow the cast were young versions of Bill Murray, Dan Akroyd, Ernie Hudson and a reanimated Harold Ramis but the jokes were the same, it'd still look like shit.
>keep quietly moving the movie back a week at a time
>no rating yet
>no early press screenings scheduled
>expecting this to be anything but a turd
That's pretty much the consensus, the movie doesn't look funny or interesting, apart maybe from Chris Hemsworth playing a dumb blond secretary
>it hurts to live
2nded want to see
...
>thinking that jews who are willing to fuck you over for not saying nice things will pay you money
Kek, poor guy.
>tfw no Kaitlin Olsson, Maria Bamford, Aubrey Plaza, Tina Fey ghostbusters
Say what you will, but her look could have made her the Harold of the group. Silverman could have been the Dan, Amy the Bill, and Mindy Kaling could've been a decent normie like Ernie
The entire exchange is appallingly bad, and THIS is what they use to promote the movie? Both the dialogue and the acting reminds me of high school/college tv/film projects. It's trying so hard to be funny, but it's falling flat on it's face because no one involved knows what the hell they're doing. I can't wait to see people trying to defend an entire movie of this garbage.
Fucking hell
Kaitlin reading a phone book angrily is enough to make me laugh.
The cynical "fuck it" laugh that quickly dies off is what sells it.
I don't get why people think Bill Murray is being forced to promote and have a cameo in the remake. Those wiki leaks were about Ghostbusters 3. I think Bill Murray is legitimately glad about it. Why? Because this means he'll no longer have to be bugged about Ghostbusters 3. Bill wasn't ever a huge fan of Ghostbusters like the other cast members were.
link?
looks like they removed the "i dont know if it was a race thang"
haha penis
Pretty sure people are going to terrorize him about being in this awful movie, yet refusing to do a proper Ghostbusters 3 for 25 years.
it was funnier with the race part
if you can be less than 0 funny
>you will never be an editor on this movie hurriedly chopping out shit that is being poorly received in an effort to salvage it
feels good man, they even took out a shot of the dancing scene, though whether that was because it's really fucking dumb or a spoiler who knows.
Crash and BURN.
Wow that actually sounds worse. This Sarah Silverman is funny meme has to stop.
>don't say gay when something isn't cool, that's not cool
>doodies, XD I'm a girl you guys
She's not that funny as an actress but she wrote comedy gold
Have they really been doing this? Don't want to give them any kind of boost by googling this but if they are actually pushing the movie back at the same time as making all this feminism hysteria gain a foot hold, they really do expect this shit to bomb and making sjw's go see it twice or three times for the sake of feminism is their only hope for making money back.
Sad how the Jews tapped into the "see it so you can stick it to the man" mentality for dead pool and now this is how they will market anything that doesn't have an immediate positive feedback.
>Mfw the Oscars get "boycotted" by feminists when this shit doesn't get a nomination.
I... I actually might have watched this, but it's entirely dependent on the Director and cast of writers. Could Sup Forums save this shit project, assuming that it had bit Greenlit as A) ONLY Female main cast B) At least one token minority (of negro dialect and descent) to make the Merchant happy C) 2-3 directly plugged homages to sell the script.
Come on. How would you do it better if you had to make it, Sup Forums?
>I... I
Promoting the film was written into his contract.
Same as how when Sony made Tom Hanks shill for their products at the 2009 E3. Except Based Tom turn it around on Sony and made them look like ass.
The scene is dragged out with so many failed jokes. They just keep going with it but nothing lands. Better scene would be as follows
>pulls up in car as girls come out
>"a hearse? that's a bit on the nose isn't it?"
>"my uncle owns a funeral home not an enterprise rent a car"
That's literally all you need. The enterprise line is the only mildly amusing bit in the exchange, make that your punch line and move on with your story.
>Down with the Patriarchy!
Pure agony
Thread theme
youtu.be
I cannot watch that. Really too sad. Murray, McKinnon, and Wigg are too funny and talented to be doing this shit. Kate is just starting out so I'll give her a pass, but Wigg should know better and Murray clearly fell victim to the clink of the shekel. So, so disappointing
I swear to fucking god if someone yells something along the lines of "hit him where it hurts" just before this I'm going to fucking shit myself
>implying
But realistically they probably couldn't afford them
>tfw bringing Murray out to promote it is only making it worse
if they could just admit they are doing a chicksploitation movie they wouldn't get half as much shit
>dont wanna watch our movie huh
>MAYBE GO CRY TO YOUR MAMA IF YOU CAN GO UP THOSE STAIRS FROM THE BASEMENT YOU VIRGIN-CIS-WHITE-MALE-ASSHOLE HUH? HAHHAHAHAHA
>GO FUCK YOURSELF...DIS DA FUTURE BOI AND SURE AS HELL UR NOT WELCOME
>*shoots laser at dick
>HAHAHAHHA DID IT HURT BOI? FUCK YOU FUCK EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU
>COME SEE OUR MOVIE OR UR JUST A LOSER YOU FUCKING LOSER LOL
>implying it isn't going to cut to all the main characters wincing and one of them obnoxiously exclaiming "That's GOTTA hurt!"
>
>Silverman flashing her hairy pits in 4k
I would literally buy tickets for every showing available and become a vocal feminist to see this.
Ivan decided he couldn't do it after Ramis died, he wanted the Lego Movie guys to take over
They don't actually funny people.
They want people they can use for SJW purposes.
Holy shit. I actually called this before I saw it. Calling obligatory "hemsworth made me slimy" reference to go over kids heads and at least one girl fart. No. There will be two. An early one and a punchline fart later in the film. Genius.

Tina Fey is an excellent writer when it comes to female comedy. She understand you can't just write a role for Seth Rogen or Jonah Hill, swap the gender and add in a little "oh yeah did I forget to mention i'm a GIRL" and expect people to believe it.
Take Mean Girls for instance. Yeah, you can consider that an all-female comedy movie, but the comedy in it plays to women's stereotypical flaws and strengths. There isn't an ounce of "anti-patriarchal" or "girl power" moments throughout the film that isn't genuine or at least has purpose. What's more, she understands male characters aren't just rugs to be walked on and used up for dumb punchlines and plot points in female centric comedies.
That laugh looks like a cry for help.
"You get a car!" Get it? Because Oprah Winfrey said that one time and she's black, and Leslie Jones is black, so that means it's funny.
Poor Bill.
>the faces of the cast when the blonde said "I was in utero".
Christ, that's truly cringy.
How do we save him?
I don't want another Robin Williams situation.
Well fuck me. That's eerily close to what I pictured. There will be another.
They threatened to sue him if he didn't do a cameo in the movie.
>Taking a movie that relied on dry, witty comedy in response to situations played straight and turning it into a farce
I've seen Ghostbusters maybe twice, and even I know this is abysmally missing the point of the original.
>felt like a stepfather
he means he feels estranged and probably hates it.
>I feel like a stepfather to the whole thing
Literally My Wife's Son: The Movie
>feels like a stepfather
Wait, aren't stepfathers by definition a "cuck"?
Is he saying he feels like a cuck?
Thank you.
The people defending this (and there are people defending it, amazingly) are just like "So what, it's a fart?" How far off the mark does this have to get before they realize they're looking at shit.
Mean girls is fucking GOAT
...
He means "why did it have to be Bowie and not me"
Yeah it's honestly the movie of my generation.Tina Fey is a great writer.
Ain't just your generation too. A reading teacher in my high school wanted to show a movie to the class, guess what they asked for?
Mean Girls.
Kill Me Murray
>What did he mean by this?
This movie is a complete cluster fuck but I have to sit here and grin and bear it and pretend that I like watching monkeys perform abortions because If I say anything otherwise these 3rd wave cunts will follow me around for life like the face Herpes on Lena Dunham.
Bamford actually poked fun at Girlbusters in her Netflix show.
I think him saying he "feels like a stepfather" is actually a really funny and subtle jab at how fucking stupid this whole thing is and how much he hates it. It's not his kid but he's been strong-armed into raising it anyway.
Unfunny shit.
Possible fix:
They come down and start checking out the car while they banter. It's a fluid shot that follows them from the front of the car to the back, where they discover a coffin. Argument ensues over whether it's just a model or an actual corpse and who has to check. McKinnon peeks in and confirms it's real, and there's a small freak-out.
Wiig and McCarthy browbeat Jones a bit more for not checking first as she gets in the car to take the body back to the funeral home while McKinnon silently muses. Trio watches as Jones departs.
McKinnon: Crap. We could have used a good corpse. Let me call her.
McCarthy/Wiig: NO!
There. I just devoted more love and attention to this scene than anyone involved in the project. Where's my fucking check?
Compare it to the original
I'm glad I wasn't the only one to think that's what he was implying.
Oh, I know only too well. That original scene is pure, certified comedy gold, and it's just a THROW-AWAY scene.
Bill's in hell.
>that look on Bill's face after he hears the price
See, that's what this new movie lacks. Fucking subtle changes in the actor's faces even, selling the joke. That's what makes this shit funny and well done.
One (you) was transfered on your account.
>implying bill doesn't always look miserable
>2010's American """humor"""
>dry, witty comedy
>THIS MAN HAS NO DICK
i do like ghostbusters tho 2bh
>tfw the original Ghostbusters crew was so awesome that their dick joke wasn't even about a dick.
Looks like a shitty SNL skit
We should all coordinate to leave memorials at our nearest theater for the original film when this "remake" comes out, Bill would understand.
> taking that joke out of context
That's terrible
