The new Ghostbusters cartoon just got announced, will be out in 2027.
:[
Zoomers are just gonna have to euthanize 80's Xillenials at this point.
>>154081857Do you say that about people who still make King Arthur and Robin Hood stories?
>>154081892>bro my beloved childhood IP that sold me toys is JUST like modern mythologyThis doesn't work for capeshit and doesn't work for 80's shit either.
>Night ShiftBut like 95% of the Ghostbusters cases happen at night, they're already the night shift. What the hell?
>>154081915NTA, but it's hard not to notice that you didn't answer the question.
We need to kill GhostbustersOne good movie over 40 years ago and now we're stuck in OLD THING BUT NEW ad nasuem
>>154081816I don't know if it's a good idea to keep making these when there's an ever growing rejection of Gen X IP.
>>154081944GB2 was great, fuck off. And RGB is forever a classic.
>>154081938No, I don’t think culturally owned mythology that’s been preserved through tradition for hundreds of years is as irrelevant as a vehicle for 80s comedians.
>>154081938Why do you think people have to answer your questions?
Why are you all so miserable?
>>154081816This looks like an AI from 4 years ago trying to do the logo.
no monke, no watch
>>154082216Why would anyone be excited for yet another unwanted 80's reboot?How hyped do you think 80's kids would've gotten for Gasoline Alley?
>>154082271It’s been working for Scooby Doo for the last 50 years.
>>154082090>culturally owned mythology I don't think King Arthur was ever something people believed actually happened> hat’s been preserved through tradition for hundreds of yearsand if you were born into the first few decades of it you would have been bitching your ass off about it
>>154082800> I don't think King Arthur was ever something people believed actually I don't think King Arthur was ever something people believed actually happenedThat’s not what I said. I said mythology. My point was that those stories are not IPs held by a company. comparing capeshit or any corporate IPs to stories people told of their own interests is a false comparison. > and if you were born into the first few decades of it you would have been bitching your ass off about itI’d probably have bigger problems to worry about as a serf or something.
>>154081816If they’re just doing the Spiderverse style, I’m not interested.
>>154081816>new Ghostbusters cartoonneat
>>154081857>>154081944>>154081955>>154082271>GhostbustersLegendary movie that still holds up>Ghostbusters 2Not as well received as the 1st, but still great>The Real Ghostbusters cartoonAmazing, but drops severely when it tries to focus on Slimer>Extreme Ghostbusters Many people enjoyed this one more than the original >Ghostbusters the video gameBasically the 3rd movie that they never got to make. Didn't get a chance to play it all the way through, but thought it was pretty great.>Ghostbusters comicsI collected these for years, and they were an excellent continuation of GB lore.>The female Ghostbusters OK, every family has to have a black sheep>Modern Ghostbusters moviesMid, but watchableFor anyone who wants to shit on 80's properties, you picked a bad example. Ghostbusters media has been statistically well regarded. You want to shit on something? Try Thunder Cats. Poor guys keep trying, but never seem to get it right.
>>154083186The game is great but that should’ve been it. That’s the high note you end on.
>>154081857Just because you impotent faggots have nothing of your own doesn't mean you have to deep six our shit. I'm sorry that Skibidi Toilet will never reach the level of cultural relevance of something like Ghostbusters or TMNT, but that's not my problem.
>>154083186GB the video game is -so good-. I love the atmosphere of it. Especially the library. They really made it creepy.
>>154083220Reboot films are ok. Good way to honor the original while expabding the franchise. The less said about Dyke-busters the better of course.
>>154083228skibidi toilet is gen alpha, take your alzheimer's meds unc
>>154081944All I know is kids are excited as hell to see Ghostbusters walking around at conventions. So I think it's doing fine, all things considered.
>>154083220Between the game and the comics, I would have been fine with that being it, but I found the new movies inoffensive enough. It was good to have a palate cleanser from the bad taste that the femBusters left.
Starring...? Its not a new group, is it? Cuz thats got an iffy track record.
>>154083427Who exactly are you expecting to return? Dave Coulier?
>>154083427>Cuz thats got an iffy track recordnah we like new groups
>>154083599I mean use the original four characters.
>>154083622Well, that's more reasonable. It sounded like you were talking about voice actors, most of which I'd imagine are retired or dead by now.
>>154083665Surprisingly only one is gone: Winston's second VA.
>>154083620>>154083622Do it like the comics. Use the originals, but expand to include the next generation and spinoff characters. GB was turning into a franchise with teams in different cities, and to me, that leaves a lot of room for plot development.
>>154083701Umm... what about Lorenzo Music?
>>154083718Oh, right. Him too.
>>154083725Now I hate Mondays AND Boco.
>>154083768I guess I just remembered him more for Garfield than GB.
>>154083802I always remembered because I thought it was poetic that Bill Murray would go on to voice Garfield in the live action movies. It came around full circle.
>>154083850Fun fact, he only took that role because he thought the director was someone else.
>>154081816thi is going to be another surf dracula
>>154083250shoot yourself in the head
>>15408227180s kids enjoyed older media too because Reruns were still a thing back then.
>>154083665Welker (Ray) and LaMarche (Egon) are still working
>>154083850>>154083855Interestingly Murray always felt bad about Music getting fired. It was intended to just be a general bitching complaint much like everything else with Ghostbusters with him, he didn't want them to actually fire the guy and was annoyed they did in an attempt to placate him
>>154082156Answer his question.
>>154081920It's the 9pm to 9am shift.Really though, the implication that this will be more edgy or gritty than what we would expect seems like a hope too far.
>>154084341Is LaMarche still working? I haven't heard his voice in a while. Obviously he was in Futurama, but I think that's the last thing I remember him in. (then again, I've been skipping out on a lot of newer shows).
>>154083250Oh rightMurder Drones Fabulous Circus
>>154082271>80's kids would've gotten for Gasoline Alley?GA was already 70 years old by that point and moreover poorly syndicated then, fucking Mutt and Jeff was more relevant
>>154085147That’s the point.
>>154083250Cry harder knowing all you have is Spongebob and that's it.
>>154083228The point is that other generations don't want their childhood favorite IPs to go on for 45 years with progressively less inspired reboots. No one expects or wants Skibidi Toilet to last for 45 years and be passed down to their kids. Hell I bet you don't want that from the IPs you liked either because half the discussion over these old IPs is how much the new ones suck anyway.
>>154084534They had the writers or whatever talking about how they wanted to make the show feel scarier. So, I guess that's maybe something?
>>154083768To be fair, Boco is a retarded piece of shit and everyone already hates him.
>>154081857Not a bad idea.....
>>154085219Zoomers don't even remember when Spongebob was good.
>>154085356There isn't much that has been made in recent years that deserves to go on as long as things like Ghostbusters.
>>154084534Extreme Ghostbusters spiritual successor?
>>154081816>night shiftso is this GhostBusters Five Nights At Freddies?
>>154085356The reason studios keep these franchises going is because they sell. If the newer generations were producing anything worthwhile from a pop culture standpoint, the studios would leave those properties in the past.
>>154081816Real Ghostbusters and Extreme Ghostbusters are both solid so I am willing to give this a chance.>>154088160Don't jinx it. Ghostbuster turning into zoomer horror would be the second worst thing to happen to the franchise.
>>154088808>zoomer horrorNot that guy, but The Real Ghostbusters had references to Cthulu, The Addams Family, and Ninja Turtles, so I really wouldn't put it past them to reference haunted animatronics or Slenderman or liminal spaces like the Back Rooms.
>>154089222Tbf Cthulhu is from the 20s and the Addams Family from the 30s hardly contemporary references by the 80s.
>>154089552Oh, I didn't mean contemporary references, specifically. I just meant that they've referenced other material before, and that it would make sense that they might reference some other materials that have become popular between now and when GB originally released.
>>154081971>GB2 was great No it wasn'tNot being offensively bad like most sequels doesn't make it a good movie. They literally had no ideas which is why Bill Murray would rather play with a cute baby for most of the runtime
>>154082359Scooby Doo at least completely reinvents itself with each incarnation, which keeps things fresh. All these 80s slop franchises can do is "MEMBA THIS? MEMBA THIS? MEMBA BOBA FETT? MEMBA HE-MAN? MEMBA SMURFS? W-wait, why are these movies flopping!??"
>>154090513No, it wasn't offensively bad, because it was just good. All over. It's a very good sequel and did a great job of continuing from where things left off.GB is great. You're a fag. Die.
>>154090660>Scooby Doo at least completely reinvents itself with each incarnationlmao you have no idea what you're talking about
>>154090513I think Ghostbusters 2 has the better Ghosts causing mayhem scene with Flip City being such a great track but besides that yeah it's a downgrade.
>>154092153I liked the 2 death row ghosts from the opening. Also, it was pretty funny to me that the GB were reduced to entertaining at kids birthday parties.
>>154082271Honestly, I thought The Shadow and The Phantom were awesome as fuck. Though, given their box office, I don't think I was in the majority.
>>154081892Most of the recent King Arthur and Robin Hood stuff is garbage though
>>154082800Anon myhtology is specifically stuff that didn't actually happen, as opposed to history
>>154094630>Anon myhtology is specifically stuff that didn't actually happenno mythology which you can't even spell is collection of traditional legends and beliefs, by your definition every fictional story ever would be mythology
>>154094502>given their box officedarkman was a better The Shadow movie than the actual The Shadow movie is the problem.great theme song though https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXpWfd1BNkQ&list=RDCXpWfd1BNkQ&start_radio=1
>>154083243>Reboot films are ok. Good way to honor the original while expanding the franchiseFirst one is okayish if you don't mind the character assassination and how just half of the new characters are likeable. The second one is pretty bad.
>>154094999I just like Egon's granddaughter
>>154089552Cthulhu was contemporary thanks to the TTRPG that literally put it back on the table
>>154093748Yeah the Scoleri Brothers are not only magnificent effects wise but them surging with the electricity of the chair that executed them and their delightfully grotesque exaggerated shapes make them easily some of the best film debuting Ghosts. Honestly with the birthday party scene I feel if Peter Venkman was there he'd release a ghost out of one of the traps to spite the shithead kids lol.
>>154094999The transparent Sewer Dragon ghost was cool but the rest of the film was pretty nonsense and dragging its feet honestly alongside just having plot bloat and focus issues. Honestly I feel like with the family angle and that most of the Ghostbusters are kids, a film with the Grundel as a major threat would've been a solid idea if they have to spice up their nostalgia bait...though nothing will top his usage in Extreme Ghostbusters.
>>154085356>The point is that other generations don't want their childhood favorite IPs to go on for 45 years with progressively less inspired reboots>said Anon, confidently, on the comics and cartoons board where one of the most popular topics is capeshit that’s been going for 70 years or more
>>154097115Not the best argument considering how fucking dead the comic side of this board is.
>>154091262It's true. I don't even like Scooby Doo but they change the formula for each show. We went from fake monsters to real ones, adding and substracting from the main cast, cartoony self parody to a serialized long running narrative, kiddie audience to edgy adult audience, and vastily different stories each time. As someone who is not a fan I can understand why it's stuck around for so long.
>>154081816Bustin' makes me feel good
>>154089222It would be an appropriate myth arc for Ghostbusters. There's a technological aspect for Egon to reverse engineer. Built by a dead Ivo Shandor type sorcerer for Ray to research.
>>154099089The fact that I can't tell if you're referring to fnaf, back rooms, or slenderman is a pretty good indicator that the formula fits a lot of situations very easily.
>>154091108Holy ESL
>>154100272Are YOU esl? There was nothing wrong with what he said.
>>154100272Do you even know what ESL means? Are you that fucking stupid?
>>154083186The video game doesn't get enough love but it still had a lot of problems>bill murray was still an asshole and were contemplating on replacing him with another voice actor but bill still half assed it, this resulted in the parade level being cut >sigourney was too busy with Avatar>David Margulies(The mayor) his contract was terminated when brian murray(bills brother) got bill murray on board and they gave him the role as mayor.
>>154101802On the other hand...Alyssa Milano.
>>154101836How big are your damn hands, Boco?Ogre-ass motherfucker over here, holding grown women in his hand. Fuck off back to your beanstalk.
>>154082271I died to watch all of those comic strip animated prime time special in the 1980s. That’s how we got Garfield ongoing cartoon. It’s why so many people remember Charlie Brown and Snoopy.
>>154083701Just use Arsenio Hall
Ghostbusters has been doing pretty good in putting out quality. The new movies where pretty good, though they are still very Marvel like. I really think they need to go more on the horror and mystery side instead of making it more of an action movie. What really makes Ghostbusters fun is the hunting part and learning about what they are looking for.The games are still pretty good though. Spirits Unleashed I think is the best out of all the horror PvP games.
>>154103699>Spirits UnleashedHuh. I wasn't aware of this one. Looks fun! Wishlisted.
>>154084534Who the fuck is asking for gritty Ghostbusters?
>>154105210People who liked Extreme Ghostbusters having a bit more bite and horror in it I suppose?
>>154101425>>154101627You can't read English. I said it *wasn't* offensively bad, but that doesn't mean it's good either.
