I don't recall anything however I think I missed a few things throughout. Will need to give it a second viewing.Was there a reference to the second movie? I was keeping an eye out but don't recall ever seeing anything...

After checking out some articles, it sounds like the only reference was that occult bookstore Ray was still working at. I haven't watched GB2 in a while so had forgotten all about it.I don't recall anything however I think I missed a few things throughout. Will need to give it a second viewing.
Hopefully there's a sequel.After checking out some articles, it sounds like the only reference was that occult bookstore Ray was still working at. I haven't watched GB2 in a while so had forgotten all about it.
Reitman said the movie is still canon though, and if there's a sequel he will likely include more references to it.
A lot of it is done right to be honest. Definitely worth a watch to make your own mind up.Dammit, I've read a good enough number of critical reviews by fans to deduce that this is probably not a movie for me. What I gathered from several non-spoiler critiques was that this movie is takes pandering to a whole new level, it's basically Fan Service: The Movie. I love Ghostbusters and even tolerated the 2016 reboot but I always HATED fan service, it always feels like I'm talked down whenever it's shamelessly done. I know a lot of people love being having movies with the "See, we did the thing! Aren't we in tune with what you want?" but I think good movies should stand on their own two feet.
Not hating on the movie (or the people who enjoyed it) since I haven't seen it, just expressing what I don't like in films and this seems to have them in spades.
Definitely will since not cool to judge a movie without seeing, I'm just praying to Gozer that I'm wrong. Or maybe just wait for the blu ray.A lot of it is done right to be honest. Definitely worth a watch to make your own mind up.
I've not been going to the cinema myself in the current climate. I'm glad I pushed myself to go and see this. The proton pack and Ecto siren sounded really good on the speaker system.Definitely will since not cool to judge a movie without seeing, I'm just praying to Gozer that I'm wrong.

It's refreshing to see so many of us liking the film. Makes a change around here.Just saw it and I think it was nicely done. Lots of callbacks sure but it still told it's own story while respecting the original source material. My second favorite Ghostbusters movie. It was fun.

What else is new?Red Letter Media hated it.
If I was to nitpick it would be that I felt it took too long to really get going.It was Stranger Things meets The Goonies meets Ghostbusters but I thought they mostly held it together well despite some pacing issues that were probably difficult to avoid due to time constraints. It was an entertaining movie, I'm not going to nitpick it to death. If you are going to do a sequel to a loved franchise almost 40 years later and replace the old stars of the original while still incorporating them into the film, this is a decent example of how to do it.
Looking like Winston will be a big part of any sequel.Stay after the credits.

Even to a casual viewer I think it was fairly obvious that Egon (or any Ghostbuster really) was Phoebe's Grandfather.
Yea, not shocked by that. That is turning out to be their schtick lately. Just tear apart every movie. Doesn't affect my positive opinion of this movie at all.Red Letter Media hated it.
