Kate McKinnon looks like the best part of that.

I'll watch it, but I remain skeptical. It's not the fact that it's an "all-ladies Ghostbusters" or that they're "ruining my childhood" or whatever. It's just that these are the same people who made Bridesmaids, and that was a really really bad movie.

It really just makes me miss the Original. Probably not fair, but whatever.

It looks bad. I'm surprised to see people react positively to it on social media.

I liked that movie "Spy" with her in it but that was more because Jason Statham was hilarious.

Nice to see they are going the Force Awakens route of remaking the first ones with no original thought whatsoever. Oh sorry, I mean they are "mirroring" the original. grrlpower.

Meh. I guess if my kids wanna go see it, I'll take 'em.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?
