12:06 <@Mirage> The trailer for 'Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire' doesn't realy do anything for me..  All I can say is the movie better be different and *much* better than the trailer.
12:06 < Evilpig> saw the trailer for letterkenny season 12 last night. from it this will be hte last season
12:13 < aestetix> uhhhh
12:13 < aestetix> there's ANOTHER ghostbusters movie coming out?
12:19 <@Dagmar> Yes.  The honestly-written reboot did very well
12:19 <@Dagmar> The "gender equality shitshow" I think we're just going to pretend isn't canon
12:20 < aestetix> the one from 2016
12:20 < aestetix> I didn't watch that, the trailer was fucking awful
12:20 <@Dagmar> The _movie_ was fucking awful
12:21 < aestetix> Did you actually watch it?
12:21 <@Dagmar> They didn't even accomplish anything for "gender equality"
12:21 <@Dagmar> They had Hemsworth play the gender-swapped Janine, and then made really sexist jokes and engaged in passive sexual harassment of his character
12:21 <@Dagmar> Like, Janine was a badass who everyone respected
12:23 <@Dagmar> The whole thing seemed like a hatefully-written revenge movie for someone's delusion that the francise was previously some set of saumemr T&A flicks
12:23 <@Dagmar> er summer T&A
12:23 <@Dagmar> All it had going for it was more expensive special effects, which suffered from "neon shit syndrome" where everything is suspiciously overly illuminating in the scene
12:24 <@Dagmar> The new setup focusing on the decendants is _pure joy_ tho
12:24 <@Dagmar> It was an objectively great movie
12:28 <@Dagmar> Probably the worst thing about the bad one is that a couple of the stars were doing the talk show circuit swearing up and down that the movie was not _exactly what it turned out to be_ while simultaneously acting martyred that anyone would even question it
12:29 <@Dagmar> Clearly some folks feel that the rule of "two wrongs don't make a right" don't apply when one of the wrongs only exists in the heads of the unstable
12:31 <@Mirage> Dagmar: Watch the trailer for the new 'canon' continuation... https://www.imdb.com/title/tt21235248/
12:31 < PigBot> Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire (2024) - IMDb (at www.imdb.com) https://tinyurl.com/ysd9g4de
12:34 <@Dagmar> No less terrible than Ghostbusters III
12:35 <@Dagmar> Actually, probably still quite a bit better than GBIII
12:35 <@Dagmar> That one was mainly a propaganda/tourism orgy of backpatting
