I enjoyed the hat, wig and glasses combo. I Also liked the delivery of the slaps and MacKinon’s yellow lensed glasses. Beyond that though, I’m going to wait and see.
Also, is it just me or do the special effects seem rather dated?
I want to say that ‘here you have it, the first Ghostbusters trailer has finally landed!’ But as you’ll soon see.
It’s not all bad. The music works with the visuals. In fact, it’s really exciting at first because you think it’s leading to a moment of revelation. Only, there is no revelation. Pointless is a word that comes to mind for this teaser to a teaser trailer.
Nevertheless, I’m still excited about this reboot because it stars three great ladies of comedy; Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy and Kate McKinnon. The director, Paul Feig is the man behind Bridesmaids (2011) and most recently the very entertaining Spy (2015) . As such, hope lives on.
I suppose it helps that in just over two weeks (March 3rd, 2016), we’ll have the next Ghostbusters trailer. May it be good enough to make up for the above, dare I say, ‘nonsense’.
One of the best executions of a teaser to a teaser trailer I’ve ever seen is for Deadpool (2016).
Michael Kenneth Williams and Andy Garcia also star.
