Luigi give James a medal

Number one

When you win by doing nothing, that’s when you’ve truly ascended

BOOM!!!!

More entertaining, too

I think that the movie made a bunch of money, everyone just hated it haha

@@superlink235yeah, that’s why they made a sequel with that cast because it was so successful…

"Treasures of wickedness profit nothing, but rightness will take people away from death."

That’s the reason I hate these people the most they are hypocrites who switch sides whenever it suits them

You know the product is bad when the producers on X says: don't like it don't watch it That thing is gonna flop for sure

ONG

Modern Pixar is the perfect example of this. Many of the movies after Coco (with Soul being an exception) feel like movies that are not made for everyone. Pixar was about making CGI movies for EVERYONE. When you force demographic pandering, it alienates the audience Pixar built upon.

@@SuperMarioJustin4 🤣thanks lol

Yeah and I don't know why ppl gave him all the hate. he legit explained why he wasn't going to see it and it's not offensive at all. That proves you can have a logical opinion but ppl will ignore it for they're own opinion. Ppl are idiots.

Sorry what? Neither Transformers nor TMNT hold the same significance to James as Ghostbusters does. My question is from this video, how can anything think sexism IS involved? Yes James did see the Transformers which he has openly said he does not like. He also TMNT which he openly says he does like. Now for Ghostbusters, he openly said he watched the trailer and did not like it. Therefore, he was not going to go see it. Seeing those movies, but not seeing this one. DOES NOT EQUAL SEXISM! (also Rogue One has literally nothing to do with this, which can be argued for Transformers and TMNT as well. No reason to focus on any movies beside this one.)

@@davidjames579 exactly, its why i wont give Woke Fate a shot or Captain Woke, you dont get to shit on people then expect their money.

That's because we followed the wise words of James.

I already noticed in the UK there are newer blue ray double packs of just GB1 and 2 omitting a certain other one.

I see the "Female" Ghostbusters title used, specifically because the 2016 one left so little impact or mark that you have to specify you're talking about that one instead of the "default" original incarnation.

Thankfully, the 2016 one is now known as "Ghostbusters: Answer the Call."

It was just shown on U.K. TV and it had a 2 stars rating, for comparison Mac & Me has 3.

Except those of us that agreed with him. Ghostbusters 2016 was never a bad movie because it had all female leads, it was a bad movie that happened to have all female leads.

HoKage_888 Look up Nerrel and watch his review on TLJ it changed my opinion

That's a little broad though. I respect people who also chose to watch the movie just so others wouldn't have to and gave in depth insights and comparisons. Someone who didn't want to watch it makes sense, and it's a perfectly valid choice. But it's not the only one

@@juliantapia1407 yess!! It doesnt mean they want views they just want others to avoid watching bad movies!

@@2hot4u68 In all fairness to James Rolfe, TFA was an overall slightly OK film. It wasn't until The Last Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker when the sequel trilogy really became absolute dog excrement.
