And Leslie Jones is pissed about the Real Ghostbusters movie...

And it's delicious! She's acting all butthurt about it and going on a tirade that is exactly the same thing as the behavior the crew of her movie were mocking.

So insulting. Like fuck us. We dint count," Jones said in a tweet Saturday evening while tagging her co-star Melissa McCarthy, Sony Pictures and Paul Feig. "It’s like something trump would do. (Trump voice)”Gonna redo ghostbusteeeeers, better with men, will be huge. Those women ain’t ghostbusteeeeers” ugh so annoying. Such a dick move. And I don’t give fuck I’m saying something!!
Well, the 2016 movie did the same thing to the original 2 movies. Soooo, yeah... Let's ignore the issue that the 2016 movie DIDN'T get enough money to be successful for the studio... this is all Misogyny! Because that pesky Patriarchy has to ruin everything...

No Leslie, it doesn't work that way. While yes, there were some people that were sexist about it, they were the minority of the "haters". The mayority of people whp "hated 2016" was because they HATE REBOOTS IN GENERAL! Others, simply do not like Feig's directing.

I was against it, the moment they announced Feig, because I knew it would have Melissa McCarthy attached. And after seeing Bridesmaids and a couple of movies with McCarthy, well... I knew I was going to get a movie with humor so low brow that Family Guy would seem as sofisticated as Frasier. Then the "Grl Pwr! Smsh patriarchy" BS started...

The end result was a Yamcha... Had the movie been in hands of a competent director and had it been a sequel instead of a reboot, the "hatred" would've been less.
Hell, if you get a competent writer and director NOT FEIG and make a serious sequel to 2016... by serious sequel, I mean an actual Paranormal movie with comedic elements peppered in for levity; I'd watch it! I would not suppprt a Feig helmed" _________ Movie" parody of Ghostbusters.
