Ghostbusters 3: Afterlife (2021)

WILL...NOT...WATCH

It looks dumb anyways. Even the trailer was slow moving.

It looks dumb anyways. Even the trailer was slow moving.

So much potential material left over the GB II. That ugly love child Oscar...Rick Moranis and Annie Potts, Ackroyd, Winston, Murray?

Let's you and me make a pact to boycott that mutha

Wasn’t much to the trailer but seemed to give at least enough to figure out what the plot is going to be.

 

[TheDayMan]

You guys are nuts. This looks fucking awesome.

All of them are listed in the cast credits (plus Sigourney Weaver) but the ugly baby and Moranis, who I’m pretty sure lives in a cave off the grid somewhere.

 

[Wild Turkey]

Yes. It. Was.

It's unbelievable that they could have 4 VERY FUNNY WOMEN, and the movie be so completely devoid of humor. It was awful.

The only parts that even had the tiniest semblance of funny, was Hemsworth's character and the fucking delivery boy.



Again, very funny cast, that were all cast as the same person, and weirdly unfunny.

Too much sugar coating in this review and you need to tell us exactly how you feel.

Trailer 2:

I have not read anything about this, so maybe the general story is already out there, but from that trailer…

It looks like the GBs from the 80s ended up having a storage issue with all the ghosts they caught, and Egon went to the middle of nowhere to bury the ectoplasm storage unit. Now, 30 years later, either his grandson “breaks the seal”, or somehow the container becomes compromised and all the ghosts they caught all those years earlier begin breaking out.

I never saw the “other” GB movie. I hope this one acts like it never happened, though, from everything I heard about it.

I never saw the 2016 one either but my understanding is that was a hard reboot and was never intended to be part of the same timeline as the originals. In fact I believe Bill Murray made a cameo but not as Peter Venkman.

Final trailer:

 

[michaeljordan_fan]

I liked it.

It's not as good as the original (how could it be?), but I think it tells a fun story centered on a family.

 

[calsnowskier]

Finally saw it.

It took a LONG time to get where it was going. But it was enjoyable enough for light entertainment. The end was extra cheese, but again, for light entertainment, it was fine.

Overall, not as good as the reviews made it out to be, but it was entertaining enough to get a thumbs up from me.

6.5/10
