    lol, I feel the exact opposite and I grew up watching the old movies and tv show. Ghostbusters and TMNT were my childhood loves and still are my adult loves.

    Answer the Call was funny, goofy, and kept the spirit of the original. The women may have been neurotic, but they were also strong, competent, and said fuck it to everyone who kept putting them down. I watch it as often as I watch GB1. It’s a great watch for the gym, it pumps me up and makes me laugh.

    Afterlife and Frozen Throne were just nostalgia baited, coming of age, cash grabs that were nothing like the originals. After how ATC was dragged down by misogynists, I was very excited for Afterlife, I wanted to love it. I bought it immediately when it was available on iTunes and watched it immediately. The first thing I said when the credits rolled was “What the fuck was that trash?” because it was more like a teenage Goosebumps “horror” than an actual Ghostbusters movie. I hated it so much, I have zero desire to watch Frozen Throne.
