2016 wasn't a Ghostbusters movie. That was fanfiction full of quirky OCs.

And it wasn't even good fanfiction.

They lost $70 million on the 2016 movie. I'm not surprised they didn't include it lol

That's pretty much their fault too since it grossed $230 million in theaters, and still didn't turn a profit.

The marketing budget was insane, and the director was expecting it to make at least $500 million. Having a Ghostbusters movie have the budget of a Marvel film - even if it included the original cast - is a profoundly stupid idea

The main character in the new Ghostbusters movie killed Bill Murray through negligence because she was so insecure about people not beliving her when she says ghosts are real and in the process releases the only ghost they catch in the entire film.

And the movie just keeps going as if it didn't happen.

It included the three movies within the same narrative universe. 2016 wouldnt fit in there.

It wasn't Venkman. He played somebody else. In the 2016 one, the original Ghostbusters never existed.

It's... passable, but clearly an uninspired cash-in compared to the wit and creativity of the first one.

Thats kind of the idea i got.... just at a glance, it seems the only worthwhile one is the first film and maybe this new one

No one wants the garbage 2016 movie with the 3 good movies.

Afterlife proved that the original movies still have plenty of fans while tastefully and respectfully passing the torch to the next generation.

Kind of hard to claim you hate women when the new movie has Phoebe, Lucky, and Callie only getting praises from fans and casual viewers. 2016 was a bad movie with bad characters all around.

I cant imagine anyone feels that the Chris Hemsworth Ghostbusters ever need be mentioned again. Kate McKinnon just is not funny unless shes got a good writer.

That's fine. I would have included it but well that's because I think the hate it gets is overblown. There are far worse sequels and remakes out there. It was just a below average movie.

But I understand why it's not being included.

The complaint has never been "women bad." It has always been "badly written women bad."

But because 90% of attempts to fill diversity quotas are clumsily handled and awkwardly conveyed, most instances are disliked by audiences... which leads to this illusion that audiences dislike female leads.

Which is fucking silly, because people absolutely love characters like Ellen Ripley, Sarah Connor, Furiosa, Wonder Woman, Gamora, etc.

They need good writing. Strong performances. A reason to exist within the story. There are tons of male characters who suck, too, and they suck for the same reason the sucky women suck.

"Women bad" was definitely one of the popular complaints being lobbed against the movie. People would like to forget that the backlash against Ghostbusters wasn't just the next episode in GamerGate, but the damage has been done and nobody who called "foul" back then is smelling it any different today. Any genuine dislike of the movie was successfully piggy backed off of, and increased, by media illiterates (anyone talking about "diversity quotas") and bad faith actors with an agenda.

Afterlife is getting plenty of hate for it being way too much of a rehash of the first movie. More people like it then dislike yes but it still gets a fair share of criticism.

I like Afterlife. I like all four Ghostbusters films and yes the remake is the weakest. There are far worse remakes and sequels out there. The hate for the reboot is overblown.

That's why 2016 doesn't fit in with this collection, regardless of it's reception.
