McKinnon is going to heist this whole fucking movie out from under everyone.

It's gonna be fuckin beautiful.

Yep, she's gonna break out big time.

She's unbelievably talented.

 

[Bobby Roberts]

OP needs to learn the definition of awesome, because this ain't it.

I think it's pretty awesome.

I mean, it's not cliche anime chick 467 holding a lightsaber and a gun, but it's got its charms.

 

[BluePigGanon]

I'd love this to turn out great but I'm so turned off by how cynical it is.

 

[EdibleKnife]

Makes me feel good

That's like the exact opposite of awesome. :X

Should have done a photo without the extra mist and green lights...

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

Meh.

 

[Platy]

That's like the exact opposite of awesome. :X

By opposite you wanted a backwards shot ?

Ghostbusters use blue lightish because blue is for boys

 

[JimJamJones]

First official promo picture from Feig's Ghostbusters is out and it's awesome

 

[Darksol]

Yep, that's green alright.

 

[evilromero]

So is the narrative that the old group is largely retired and/or disinterested, which leads to this new squad assembling due to recent paranormal incidents? I'm curious how they'll address the many years of inactivity since the Vego incident.

 

[InfiniteBento]

Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

[Obscura]

I like how they are standing according to their height.

That's the worst part of the image for me. That and how pissed off they look which is a running theme now.

Any word yet on Slimer? He's the only reason I'd see this.

 

[Askherserenity]

That picture looks like shit.

First picture was even better.

 

[True Savior]

Misleading thread title.

 

[chugen]

fuck is that

 

[Ishida]

That promo picture looks terrible.

 

[BertramCooper]

I'd love this to turn out great but I'm so turned off by how cynical it is.

How is it cynical?

 

[PsychBat!]

It's okay. Gonna wait for the movie.

 

[SuperBanana]

I've seen Comic Con photos look better than that. :|

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

Really don't like the picture, but the film ain't a shitty promo picture so I'm not worried, at least not yet.

 

[Netherscourge]

So long as it focuses on the paranormal, and not just "Ladies pretending to be Ghostbusters", I'll be happy.

The first movies had laughs, but they made sure it all surrounded a major paranormal event. If it turns into a gender-shifted parody, it'll suck.

 

[SneakersSO]

+1

 

[Jigorath]

Looks cool.

 

[Calvero]

It looks dope.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

It looks like Ghostbusters superimposed over Rapture captured using Mario Paint.

 

[Woody Invincible]

They look like they're in the middle of Andrew Ryan's Rapture.

It looks like Ghostbusters superimposed over Rapture captured using Mario Paint.

Dammit

 

[Finaika]

That's the worst part of the image for me. That and how pissed off they look which is a running theme now.

Any word yet on Slimer? He's the only reason I'd see this.

Why would they look happy? They're busting ghosts.

I would be very surprised if he isn't in the film. I'd say he's just as big a mascot character as Stay Puft is for the series, so I've got a very good feeling he'll be in the movie some way or another.

 

[Bjomesphat]

I can moderately tolerate Kristen Wiig (when she's not trying to be funny), but the rest are awful from what I've seen of them.

 

[PBY]

Looks great

 

[Davey Cakes]

It's okay.

I'm done with promotional images that say nothing about the movie. Give me some footage!

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

Dammit

I was surprised no one pointed it out.

 

[KalBalboa]

Hoping for the best. The actual quality of that photo is a bit dodgy (lots of high ISO noise, which is strange for a promo shot), but I can feel a great movie in all of this.

Ghostbusters is pretty damn important to me. Hope this rises above other modern remakes.

 

[CapitalismSucks DonkeyBalls]

/shrug

Generic and green to me. Their outfit looks like a Cleveland Browns throwback.

 

[evilromero]

Why would they look happy? They're busting ghosts.

But busting makes you feel good.

 

[Wingfan19]

What are they-some kind of cosmonauts?

Nah, they're exterminators. Someone saw a cockroach on 12.

 

[studyguy]

Was never really into the original Ghostbusters so I have no real say on how it compares. I think it looks cool, whatever.

 

[RustyNails]

Bomba

 

[Transistor]

awe·some
ˈôsəm

adjective

extremely impressive or daunting; inspiring great admiration, apprehension, or fear.
"the awesome power of the atomic bomb"

synonyms: breathtaking, awe-inspiring, magnificent, wonderful, amazing, stunning, staggering, imposing, stirring, impressive

informal

extremely good; excellent.
"the band is truly awesome!"

Awesome is not the word I'd use at all. Unless you're being ironic and you mean "bad" or "crappy"

Nah, they're exterminators. Someone saw a cockroach on 12.

Must be one hell of a cockroach

 

[TwEE-N-Toast]

Well I guess if you have low expectations.

 

[Dalek]

Must be one hell of a cockroach

Bite your head off, man.

 

[UnemployedVillain]

Why would they look happy? They're busting ghosts.

Uhh, because bustin' makes you feel good? Did you even listen to the original theme song?

 

[Archer]

They look like plumbers.

 

[Acidote]

One of the many little things I don't like is that the original cast looks like they were wearing work suits, and the new cast looks like they're wearing costumes. And those boots.

 

[spookyfish]

Where is the awesome?


I was promised awesome.

 

[JaggedSac]

McCarthy needs vertical stripes.

 

[Henkka]

Kind of a weird 'official' promo pic. Grainy image with dim lighting and a pretty overwhelming green glow in the background. The characters look somewhere between annoyed and bored. Is this a screen from the movie or something they posed for?

 

[Inferno313]

I love Ghostbusters, but I'm sorry, women just aren't funny. I don't want anyone to think I'm a sexist, I have a girlfriend afterall.

Spoiler

This looks great, can't wait. They're gonna kill it.

You almost had me you silly bastard

 

[Sephzilla]

The picture with the new cast in front of Ecto-1 was better than OP's picture
