you gonna call welcome to watchmojo.com
and today we’re counting down our picks
for the top 10 Ghostbusters 2016 facts
well I believe in science I mean I I
believe in entertainment and I think to
contemplate the ideas of ghosts and and
survival of the consciousness it’s very
very entertaining
for this list we’re taking a look at
trivia and interesting information
surrounding ghostbusters I just got
bombarded with the most positive excited
tweet I mean for a day and I was just
like oh my god this is so great and then
suddenly bad ones started coming in and
then all of a sudden it’s just an
onslaught and then you realize oh my god
and there’s this tidal wave of hey just
to clarify
we’re talking about sony’s reboot of the
franchise and not the original 1984
classic number 10 it’s a reboot not a
sequel it’s a quest for oppression while
technically the third entry in the
franchise this 2016 film is not
ghostbusters 3 in fact it’s not even a
sequel rather it’s a full reboot that
won’t follow the continuity of the
previous two movies another cast of
characters will be crossing the streams
in a different universe when asked why
the film would be a reboot and not a
traditional follow up director Paul Feig
explained that he wanted to bring this
franchise to a new generation and allow
the new teams origin story to develop we
have dedicated our whole lives to
studying the paranormal now their
sightings all over the city we may not
get to see Peter Venkman passed the
torch or the proton pack in this case
but Feig seems confident that the reboot
root will give ghostbusters a fresh
start let’s go let’s go oh did you want
it alright so I like to LA to number 9
many stars turn down roles someone is
created
that amplifies paranormal activity they
might be the only ones who can stop it
when it was announced that the
Ghostbusters reboot would have four
female leads some of the funniest and
most charismatic ladies in Hollywood
were considered Jennifer Lawrence and
rebel Wilson met with Paul Feig about
joining the cast but you guys are gonna
get pitched slaps so hard your man boobs
are gonna concave the filmmakers
apparently also thought about enlisting
Anne Hathaway as a doctor named Anna
Emma Stone was notably offered a role
but she turned it down
although stone found the script funny
she didn’t feel like committing to
another franchise on the heels of the
amazing spider-man Rick Moranis who
played Louis Tully in the first two
Ghostbusters movies also declined the
chance to make a cameo the Canadian
comedian felt that after nearly 30 years
it just didn’t make much sense to
revisit the franchise number eight
Saturday Night Live alumni of plenty was
really no idea it’s just try something
was just speaking of Emma Stone the
actress was on Bill Murray’s fan casting
list for a female Ghostbusters crew
Murray also suggested Kristen Wiig and
Melissa McCarthy both of whom ultimately
landed leading roles Wiig reigned as a
queen of comedy for several years on
Saturday Night Live three other
actresses in the film Kate McKinnon
Leslie Jones and Cecily strong have all
been official SNL cast members as well
McCarthy while never an SNL regular has
hosted the sketch comedy series multiple
times and picked up a few Emmy
nominations in the process of course
Ghostbusters has always had strong ties
to SNL seeing as how Murray and Dan
Aykroyd were among the
not-ready-for-prime-time players in the
1970s the FBI has a new theory on the
Jimmy Hoffa case thank you it’s Colonel
Mustard in the drawing room with the
candlestick
number 7 Ghostbusters 3 stalled for over
20 years now and I keep hearing talk
about a Ghostbusters 3 and but you
nightmare yeah this is my nightmare when
people think of movies trapped in
development hell ghostbusters 3 is a
title that instantly comes to mind
ironically dan Aykroyd actually wrote a
script in the 1990s entitled
ghostbusters 3 hell-bent which would
have taken place in a hellish alternate
reality while this film never got off
the ground it did inspire the 2009
Ghostbusters video game all right ace
get ready doctor stance if you do the
honors proud to dr. Venkman
another premise involved Peter Venkman
dying and coming back as a ghost
however Bill Murray was never too
enthusiastic about returning to the
franchise following the death of Harold
Ramis in 2014
Aykroyd seemingly abandoned the idea of
a traditional Ghostbusters 3 but that
same year 25 years after Ghostbusters to
hit theaters it was announced that Paul
Feig would be directing a reboot we can
provide a real service number 6 Paul
Feig versus Ghostbusters haters on the
planet that happened to be women right
when it was announced that Ghostbusters
would have an all-female cast the
internet was flooded with complaints and
sexist remarks even Donald Trump gave us
2 cents
they’re remaking Indiana Jones without
Harrison Ford you can’t do that and now
they’re making Ghostbusters with only
women what’s going on after being
relentlessly harassed on Twitter Paul
Feig retaliated against his haters
ultimately telling them to quote just
let this movie happen during a 2016
interview the director said quote geek
culture is home to some of the biggest
a-holes I’ve ever met in my life
Figg would later clarify the statement
however saying quote I have never met
anyone from the geek world face to face
who wasn’t a warm kind person okay you
had your chance to cooperate but you
thought it’d be more fun to insult me
well now it is my turn wiseass
number five octo to
heart hearse part ambulance the ecto-1
is one of the most recognizable vehicles
in all movies and the classic car will
return in the Ghostbusters reboot with a
slimmer hood ornament but the film will
also see the debut of the ecto 2 now
we’re not talking about the aerial
vehicle of the same name from the Real
Ghostbusters cartoon rather this ecto 2
will be a motorcycle which has
apparently been modified with a proton
pack and other accessories set photos
and previews have revealed the dirt bike
being driven by Chris Hemsworth who
plays the world’s hunkiest receptionist
with a hot rod like this thor looks like
he’s ready to answer the call those
buses number 4
Neil Casey plays the villain Brian did
you have sex with someone in my workshop
while not a household name Neil Casey
has received praise for his work as a
writer on inside Amy Schumer and
Saturday Night Live
he’s also jumped in front of the camera
on several occasions making guest spots
on sitcoms like broad city and starring
in paul feig sci-fi comedy series other
space I couldn’t be less pleased to be
here however my mother needed my
sleeping chamber at home that’s her
Pilates studio in the Ghostbusters
reboot Casey plays a baddie known as
Rowan fede describes Casey’s character
as quote a regular New Yorker
whose goal is to bring some things back
to this world he wants to trap ghosts
but for a different purpose let’s see if
Rowan can give the likes of gozer and
Viggo a run for their money
I gotta tell you this onus none of this
is necessary or helpful
number three Ghostbusters virtual
reality we have a gift
we see what no one else is willing to
see have you ever dreamed of becoming a
real Ghostbuster
if so prepare for an epic invasion Sony
Pictures has teamed up with the void to
create a virtual reality attraction
known as Ghostbusters dimension debuting
at Madame Tussauds in Times Square on
July 1st 2016 this experience allows
participants to virtually hunt ghosts in
a New York apartment building equipped
with a proton pack and specialized gun
users will additionally get to visit a
haunted mansion
New York’s underground subway tracks and
the Ghostbusters headquarters in
addition both Paul Feig and Ivan Reitman
of the original Ghostbusters films have
also contributed to the project if this
tie-in is as awesome as it sounds we are
ready to suit up the spirit thing you
ever see number two the original cast
will make cameos
while none of the original Ghostbusters
cast members will reprise their iconic
roles many of them will make cameos as
different characters in this reboot we
won’t see Rick Moranis or the late
Harold Ramos but Sigourney Weaver Ernie
Hudson and Annie Potts are all on board
despite initially refusing to take part
in a third Ghostbusters film Bill Murray
eventually agreed to make an appearance
here as well little is currently known
about who exactly they’re all playing
although Dan Aykroyd will reportedly pop
up as a cab driver that interacts with
Kristen Wiig oh and Ozzy Osbourne is
also in the movie for some reason before
we unveil our number one pick here are
some honorable mentions
hi-c ecto cool
sliders refresh rate you’ve been warned
number one the most disliked movie
trailer ever here’s a bigger picture and
here these ghosts can possess the human
form as stated before not everybody is
happy that a Ghostbusters reboot is
happening if you need evidence look no
further than YouTube they had all that
time and now a new Ghostbusters movie
finally gets made as if now it’s
appropriate after the film’s first
official trailer was posted online in
March 2016 the viewer response was more
negative than positive by May 2016 it
became the most disliked movie trailer
in the history of YouTube with six
hundred and forty nine thousand nine
hundred down votes against roughly two
hundred and twenty one thousand four
hundred likes how bad is that well the
trailer for 50 shades of grey currently
has a little over thirty thousand
dislikes on YouTube
lighten me then while the Ghostbusters
trailer has been criticized for a
variety of reasons it’s not like
previews always properly represent
movies so let’s just reserve judgment
until July 15th when the film hits
theaters
