This isn’t a sequel to the 1984 film. It’s a sequel to spinoff merchandising objects and the coddled memories of kids who were too young to understand that the “Keymaster” and “Gatekeeper” bit was a sex joke. It strip-mines a nostalgia for something that never existed, as calculatedly phony as the ersatz Americana setting, shot in Alberta, Canada. “Ghostbusters: Afterlife” treats with pseudo-religious reverence the events of a movie in which a ghost blew Dan Aykroyd in a firehouse.

Fuckin Brutal. Ban all fandoms why do they keep trying to make sequels and shit to a two hour SNL sketch that has never worked outside of that one movie

    It's amazing to see Lady Ghostbusters be a shameless nostalgic remake of Ghostbusters with Ladies that people hate. And then Kid Ghostbusters is a shameless nostalgic remake of Ghostbusters with Kids that people adore. It's THE SAME FUCKING MOVIE.

    I hate people.
