Mass Hysteria! - Ghostbusters 2016 Trailer Review from a Ghosthead

Hello New York!

Leslie Jones, Melissa McCarthy, and Kate McKinnon in Ghostbusters (2016)

A preface: This is my first post here. Woo! In short, I am an 80's/Sci-Fi/Superhero movie fan with a strong emphasis and way too much knowledge on Ghostbusters, Back the the Future, Bill & Ted, Doctor Who and a number of other properties. Ghostbusters is extremely special and I've been watching it longer than I am able to remember. As a kid I walked around in a Ghostbusters jumpsuit with my plastic proton pack, carrying my Kenner figures and Ecto-1, and strictly called my mother Egon for some reason. In 28 years, only the calling my mom Egon thing has changed.

But enough about me, on to the main subject, a bit of excitement from yesterday!

(Note: some of my post was previously posted in the comments of our We Got One trailer release post yesterday. Sorry if you've read any of this already)

"We got one!" Ghostbusters (2016) Trailer

Well, it's that time of year. It's finally come. After all the talk and discourse it's time for the people of America to gather together and make an important decision that could potentially affect the entire country: "Should we go see the new Ghostbusters?"

Yes, welcome to...

Ghostwatch 2016 will be our up-to-date(d) coverage leading to the Summer release of Ghostbusters (2016). Let's not bury the lead, let's get to watching the first full trailer for the new film.

Well, what do we think? Are you excited? Are you apprehensive? What will the tone be? Let's have a (positive and restrained) discussion in our comment section about this first look of the newest jewel in the GB crown. Myself and Brute Squad member FOX will be moderating.

Here's the earlier teaser trailer.


[Editor's Note: Please, respect everyone in the comment section. I hate to have to say this, I understand Ghostbusters brings up a lot of emotion from people, but that is no reason to get mean or nasty. Passionate is fine, sexist is not. All comments deemed as such will be deleted. Let's have some fun people.]
