Yeah, but now we can't figure out which one's going to be retired killed off, to "legitimize" the new characters to "inherit" future movies in the franchise!

(notices Bill Murray came back)

...Strike that. :?

Apparently, Ben thought I meant "Bill isn't in this movie", not "Bill's only in this movie long enough to do a Harrison Ford, and finally get out like he wanted to in all the OTHER attempts at a GB3." :roll:

Nope, I was just reminding you that I had told you Bill was in the movie…before you apparently "noticed" that Bill was in the movie…

Sounds great, but…"Goonies meets Ghostbusters"? Not sure if that sounds good or not…!

Nice!

A little too much of a kids' movie, and I’d have liked at least *one* legacy element in there (Ecto-1 ad the logo aside) up in the clouds, but it’s otherwise a great teaser.

First review, from the Guardian, is, expectedly....not kind:
https://www.theguardian.com/film/2021/o ... udd-review

I knew we were in desperate fan-reffing trouble from the Lil' Stay-Puft Minions (do they make even remotely contextual sense in the movie??), but the alibi for invoking "Who you gonna call?" pushes it into crimes even the '16 abomination never committed. :x

The Guardian is the last place I would go to for a film review.
