#ghostbusters 2016

It’s so annoying that Ghostbusters 2016 flopped because it’s such a good movie, and the only reason it flopped is because “4 female ghostbusters? The feminists are taking over!”

Like there are only 2 significant men in that movie, one is the villain, and one is sexualised like a female character in that position would be.

The effects are amazing, the acting and writing is great, and the cast is *chefs kiss* like who hired Kate KcKinnon to be the iconic lesbian Holtzman? Because they need a raise.

People are just mad that this movie is for the girls and the gays. The lead characters are all women, and the one guy who isn’t a villain is Chris Hemsworth acting as a stupid bimbo.

Thinking about Ghostbusters and how teachers in the 80s liked it because the little kids were playing Ghostbusters games as one big team working with each other instead of war-inspired games in separate teams fighting against each other because Ghostbusters is about teamwork and humanity uniting together against the manevolent unknown and how there's enough love for the movie to form factions of Ghostheads around the world and that love is being passed down through generations and even little kids today love it and are touched by it and how they're all best friends and it's always been about the human connection and the the guyhh sob ouhghh ouuhhhh hic sob euuhhhhghh huuehhghh

Since it’s Halloween season I’m obviously on theme with my current hyperfixation: ghostbusters so I rewatched and “ranked” the movies.

I’m currently rewatching the show but my ranking is only the movies so it doesn’t count bc I said so

Museum Worker Ramblings

one thing I will say about Ghostbusters 2016 is that the Aldridge Mansion tour guide deserved what he got

you should NEVER focus on sensation when giving a tour- tell a good story, yes, but most places won't even mention ghosts unless someone asks (even then, I personally lie if it is haunted- I owe the ghosts more than the guests, and part of that is privacy). it's about interpreting and teaching history, not scaring people. Winchester Mystery House, I'm looking at you

I'm guessing whoever's in charge of the guide corps doesn't know about the flipping candle gag, and that's pretty true to life. small institutions like that will often have new guides do a few tours with their supervisor along to correct major issues, but once they have the feel of it, they're left to their own devices with groups. he'll probably be canned if anyone finds out, though- better hope nobody mentions it on TripAdvisor

what's not so realistic is the idea that nobody has been in the basement since Gertrude's remains were found. small house museums use every scrap of available storage space- she'd be sharing it with a HEPA vacuum, Christmas garlands, the fire suppression system tanks, a staff minifridge and microwave, stanchions for events, programs from a neighborhood walking tour in 1995...the guides would definitely all have been down there before, probably on a regular basis

(it's also loosely based on the Merchant's House Museum, a real place in NYC that is indeed allegedly haunted by the first owner's daughter Gertrude. and the staff are indeed open about it. however, Gertrude Tredwell was a kind, historically-minded spinster who is said to seemingly enjoy her home playing host to museum guests. also the Merchant's House is currently facing damage from construction of a proposed hotel down the street from it; you can find action items to help save it here)

op disabled reblogs but I want this on my blog so here's a thing about ghostbusters 2016

An interview with Annie Potts for a 2016 UK magazine about the Ghostbusters, coinciding with the release of the 2016 reboot. Below is a notable excerpt in which she supports the Janegon ship and speculates why it didn’t last in the second film. FWIW this isn’t the only time she’s been on record as a shipper. She told Vanity Fair in 2014 that she always hoped Janine and Egon got back together.

Interviewer: Janine has a wonderful chemistry with Egon…

Annie: That was all in the script. I think the chemistry really has a lot to do with casting. They were all really fun delightful people. Harold was a lovely, gentle spirit, bemused and deeply funny. Everything with him was so easy.

Interviewer: How did you view Janine and Egon’s relationship?

Annie: It seemed that there was a budding romance there. I was surprised in the second one that they didn’t develop that relationship further, but comedically I think they thought that Rick and I…they wanted to mine that. I had a crush on Harold, and I think I’d have liked to continue that relationship. But of course Rick was wonderful and wonderfully funny, so it was a win-win situation for me. I thought Janine and Egon had a nice chemistry, but I’m sure as they were developing the script they were thinking there was just more comedy there to mine.

What’s something from a movie that has changed the way you refer to a certain object?

I’ll go first:

Haven’t called a Pringle a “Pringle” since this movie came out, and it makes me laugh every time 😂.
