Ghostbusters - Who You Gonna Call ?

As most of you might be aware, Ghostbusters is about to be released. The feminist version is what some are referring to it as. I for one do not care about those who think the movie would be a huge flop. Even if it is, I will make sure I am able to watch it. Here are the main selling points of the movie in my opinion.


1.       Chris Hemsworth as a nerd -Call me superficial but the previous year’s
Sexiest Man Alive is going to be wearing nerdy glasses and playing a complete goofball. Can’t wait to finally watch him in something light-hearted after all the intense superhero/fantasy movies.

2.       A gang of girls fighting literal ghosts – Sounds like a fun girl time activity, if you ask me. Treasure hunt to be replaced by a ghost hunt. Finally, the change of pace all girl-groups are looking for.


3.       Sookie St. James aka Melissa McCarthy – Loved her as Sookie, the ditzy but unerring in Gilmore Girls, and looking forward to love her as Abby Yates.

4.       Kristen Wiig as Erin Gilbert - From the trailers, it is evident that she has a crush on Chris despite his less than average I.Q. Sound familiar? You got it. Just like most girls on the planet, she will be crushing on our 2015 SMA (Sexiest Man Alive).

5.       Leslie Jones – The lovable comedian kicking some paranormal a** and being rad overall, with the sarcasm and cynicism intact. Fans appeased.

6.       Zach Woods – Not many people might know him. He is the pale but adorable Jared from Silicon Valley, and I for one fell in lust him quickly. Ready to see him, no matter the brevity of his role.

7.       Steve Higgins – The co-host of the Jimmy Fallon Show is going to be in it. I don’t think you could go wrong with that.

8.       Lots of gunk and goop flying around -For the ones who love seeing our heroes tackle literal goop, it's gonna be a blast.

9.       The Ghostbusters franchise – As a child who watched the entire seasons of the Ghostbusters animated series and the previous movie; this would be a nice Throwback treat.

10.   Mr. Eugene Pool aka Paul Feig – For all the ‘90s kids out there. Remember Sabrina’s biology teacher from Sabrina the Teenage Witch? Well,  he has directed this movie. Quite an achievement, frankly.


I hope at least one of these reasons resonates with you and you go on to watch this hilarious movie tailor-made to battle the intensity of summer. I for one, don't think will be able to make it to the theaters, courtesy of exams.

Did you like the movie? What are your expectations from it? Do tell us in the comments.
