I watched the Ghostbusters reboot this week. It wasn't bad but certainly not the original. I was not expected Chris Hemsworth to be one of the best parts of it. Pretty good last act too.
The effects have certainly come along way in 32 years, probably would have been worth it see the 3D version.

I just meant that around here you're not allowed to have a level, even-keeled reaction to the new Ghostbusters movie..

I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

what i'm seeing online matches what it said at the theater...i suppose either yesterday it was just wrong, or they decided to change it...i feel like i looked this morning as well and it matched yesterday, but maybe i didn't

I saw Jarmusch's newest, Paterson, a few days ago. It stars Adam Driver as a poet named Paterson who works as a bus driver in Paterson, NJ. I don't really know how to describe it, other than that it may be one of the most beautiful movies I've ever seen. It made me really happy. I may go see it again this weekend.

I was really excited to see Arrival and had avoided spoilers since it was released; watched it today: meh.

I meant that I saw it in theatres, and may go back again. I only pirate things after they've been released on DVD. I am a moral person.
