Let me get this straight, people are angry because: A dude saw a trailer he didn't like and decided to not watch the movie. Damn I've been doing this all my life, I'm a fucking monster.

I admire James for not giving a fuck about the keyboard warriors.

In summary for Bill Murray: Not interested. Not interested. Not interested. Ghostbusters 2016: Let me play a cameo where I get killed.

Just got back from seeing Afterlife. It's bitter sweet to finally see the 3rd movie get made. And by the son of the man who directed the original.

Logic, reason and well researched information? Must be sexism.

"Vote with your wallets." "That's sexist!"

2009 would have been the perfect time to come out with GB 3, on the 25th anniversary of the original. Have all the original cast back. The 4 originals with Sigourney Weaver, Annie Potts and Rick Moranis. Oscar would been 25 yrs old, out of college, Venkman the estranged father figure in his life, Oscar becomes one of the Ghostbusters, Venkmam dies and becomes a wisecracking ghost. A lot of material to work with to make a great final chapter in the Ghostbusters trilogy. Sadly, wasn't meant to be.

Ghostbusters The Video Game is the real Ghostbusters 3.

Alternative Hell version of Manhatten? You mean Super Mario Bros.: The Movie?

Ghostbuster 3 is the 2009 video game in my books...

Harold Ramis is the genius behind the scripts of GB1 & 2, with Aykroyd. Those 2 created the alchemy that all we loved. RIP Ramis :(

Ghostbusters II was definitely underrated

James looks like a total badass sitting behind the counter in his own video store xD

Sorry you got all the hate dude

Watching this a few days before ghostbusters afterlife. Can’t believe we’re finally getting the ghostbusters sequel we deserve…

Ghostbusters 2 is a very underrated sequel. People love to hate sequels. Predator 2 and Robocop 2 are also really good sequels. As good as the originals? Of course not...only James Cameron can make sequels that meet or exceed the originals. Two of my favorite movies, event horizon and pandorum, have less than a 30 for the metacritic score.

I just want to remind that the persons behind the two Ghostbusters movies, confirmed that Ghostbusters 3 is the Xbox 360 game.

You know, its sad. Ive been a fan of James from the very start of Cinemassacre. He is easily one of the nicest guys on KZfaq. Not only is he a Husband but hes also a Father. Not to mention some one who sets up donations for charities and childrens hospitals. What a shame that one of my favorite youtube icons is being labeled a sexist over a god awful reboot nobody wants to see.

Who’s here in 2019 and can’t believe we are getting a Ghostbusters 3??

It's kinda reminiscent of the Beatles. They kept talking about getting back together almost did in April 1976. Then it was all ended by the death of Lennon in 1980.

James, you're just....just so awesome man. Your one of my favorite people on the internet.

It would have been a better sequel then the reboot we're getting. Ghostbusters 2 is just so underrated. An underrated movie sequel and a fun one.

The thumbnail makes James looks like he's a news reporter. It would be cool if he did a gaming/film news show.

Ghostbusters 3 = The 2009 Video Game.

Just looked this up, Dan Aykroyd stated that Ghostbusters video game is the 3rd movie. That confirms everything for me.

"Every time you go see it, they make another. So, stop seeing it" Preach. Thank you so much, people fucking complain about these movies, then go see them. It's insane that no seeing a movie is something you have to say you are doing, but that's the way it is. I salute you.

Afterlife is now Ghostbusters III. Or at least, as far as film continuity goes!

Who’s here after seeing the Ghostbusters: Afterlife trailer?

If you have to pull the misogyny card to roadblock criticism, your movie may suck. Tons of respect for speaking your mind, James.

Based James not backing down in the face of slander and lies from shills and crazy ideologues.

I agree with James on this one. Ghostbusters 2 was not that bad. I would have loved to see them in Ghostbusters 3.

You gotta admire how James kept his opinion from this movie onto Afterlife. To the point where he never even touched the latter to not come off as a hypocrite. Which is kind of a shame I would like to know what James thought of the latest film. EDIT: Yes, I've seen the Afterlife review and its Great! Glad James came to discuss the film.

If they rebooted it with a totally new all-male cast or a mixed cast I'm pretty sure everyone would be just as pissed off.

I always looked at the 2009 Ghostbusters game as the third movie 👍

James Rolfe: Ghostbusters III, the non-existent film Ghostbusters: Afterlife: Did you call my name?

Coming back after Ghostbusters Afterlife to see what predictions were right.

"if it's a remake of a classic, rent the classic" - Jay Sherman (critic)

James is an American Hero and all around good guy.

After hearing you're description, it saddens me that Ghostbusters 3 was never made. I think the concept of an alternate, hellish Manhattan is very interesting and would have made an awesome movie. Incidentally it reminds me of Earthbound where you travel to an alternate, extremely fucked up town of Fourside.

It's very interesting to see these old vids about ghostbusters after seeing the news Ghostbusters Afterlife film.

Holy shit James was just on CNN and they were calling his and his peers backlash sexist and biased

"Every time you go see it, they make another. So stop seeing it." That should be on a plaque somewhere.

Well, there is a Ghostbusters 3 now. We had the 2 originals. the cartoons and now Afterlife... oh sorry, the cutscens from the Video Game as well.

Rewatching this after coming back last night from watching ghostbusters afterlife! And it was amazing!

I honestly think that this foul, disgusting reboot that they dare call Ghostbusters is also pretty stereotypical and sexist... Reason 1 - Kirsten Wiig's character clams herself to be the smartest scientist, however in the next scene, we see her UNABLE TO OPEN A GODAMN DOOR!! Reason 2: Leslie Jones' character is extremely stereotypical with her dialogue, always saying "Aw hell no!" and the joke she makes when nobody catches her off the music stage saying "I don't know if that was a race thing or a lady thing, but I'm mad as hell!" Ghostbusters is dead man...dead...

Rest in peace, Harold Ramis (Egon Spengler). We Ghostbusters fans will miss you.

I'm here from 2021 to tell you that there is hope to atone for 2016... and it's called Afterlife. Simply, perfection.

James must be so pumped for Ghostbusters Afterlife

The Ghost Busters game will always be the 3rd movie to me. That game kicked ass

I love how James gives the most passive and fair assessment as to why he won't be seeing the new Ghostbusters reboot and these feminazis attack him, his family, and his friends over it. AVGN is coming out of this so far smelling like roses.

R.I.P. Ivan Reitman (1946-2022)

ghostbusters is feeling the valve syndrome, can't count to three. XD

The previews look so bad, regardless of whether or not women played the roles. That doesn't matter. It looks bad. It's really low that people resort to accusations of sexism for not liking an awful preview.

Still one of my favorite channels on youtube.

OHHHH JAAAAAAAAAAMES We got some news for ya

Ghostbusters afterlife is the true Ghostbusters 3

That seems like a giant middle finger that Bill Murray only appeared in the reboot after saying no to all the ghostbusters 3

"If the movie stinks, just don't go." - Jay Prescott Sherman

As a kid I loved GB2. As an adult I still find it enjoyable if you watch it without putting it on a pedestal it's a great movie in it's own right.

who else here after the teaser?

James don't let those jerks get you down. Stand your ground. Rational fans have your back.

Ghostbusters 2 is one of the most underrated sequels of all time ! It has a dancing toaster, a man eating bathtub and some of the most quotable dialogue since.... since Ghostbusters !

Can't agree more. I'm not a movie buff but I've held the opinion for at least the last 6 years that anything that's rebooting a franchise just isn't worth it. The people who are deep into the material will hate it because that original feeling they want isn't there; the content will only be deep enough that they can make hundreds of millions on it; and anyone who isn't familiar with the earlier stuff will, at best, only kinda like it if they don't feel patronized by the cynically thin material. The other factor is social media, which so any people get exposed to before a movie comes out. It's also easy to follow a movie up to the point it hits theaters because marketing is now a round-the-clock effort, and the unintended consequence is people get burnt out and form opinions about what they're expecting to see before they even see it. The only way forward is to create new franchises. Bringing back all the old stuff just means creativity is spinning its tires in mud. The fact that there have been reboots of reboots within only a few years of each other (Spiderman and Hulk, I'm looking at you) tells anyone all they need to know about the absurdity of the lack of creativity in modern movies. It's all about money, and until someone cares about stories rather than hitting an arbitrary box office goal post that's based on Wall Street share prices, movies will only get worse and treat people more and more as dumb mice.

Anyone comming back to this while waiting for Ghostbusters Afterlife?

This love for good Ghostbusters obv means you hate women

let's all follow in the shoes of James don't watch the movie vote with your wallet

Ghostbusters 3: History of a cancelled sequel... that we eventually got.

Ghostbusters Afterlife of revival of Ghostbusters 3 project is coming in November 19, 2021

According to leaked Sony emails, they basically blackmailed Murray to appear in it.

I wouldn't have minded Ben Stiller as a Ghostbuster. His voice work in Madagascar and acting in Tropic Thunder showed he was a worthy comedian to be one.

The game was a great run through the aspects of all 3 movies...

I'm watching Ghostbusters afterlife in theaters on thanksgiving

I can listen to James talk about movies all day.

I support you and i will not be seeing the new ghostbusters

Just saw Afterlife and we finally have the perfect conclusion to the series. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Fall of 2021 looks very promising

Anyone else really miss Rick Moranis?

"Who you gonna call?" Those guys who hacked Sony so they can do it a 2nd time.

The part about the game being the unofficial 3rd movie reminds me how the Nightmare Before Christmas game is almost like an unofficial sequel to the original.

I remember being mad when James said he wasn't gonna do a review of Ghostbusters three years ago. If I could meet my past self, I would slap him across the face.

I think I'll see if I can get my hands on the Ghostbusters game and play that instead of wasting money to go see the new movie.

So ghostbusters 3 is essentially the Duke Nukem forever of the movie world?

Jason Raitman: Time to save the series.

It wasn't canceled, just postponed, and turned into a very awesome video game This summer is the fourth story...

His idea of a movie ABOUT the attempts of making Ghostbusters III sounds like a better movie than the remake we are getting this year.

"Just because it's not as good, does that mean it's bad?" That's how I feel about so many things

Such an in-depth, well researched and from the heart vid. Being a fan, I was dead serious in watching, but at 12:10 had me in stitches xD

Kinda crazy it took 30 Years to make Ghostbusters III and we’re about to get Ghostbusters IV in March 2024.

Dan Aykroyd chasing Bill Murray to make GHOSTBUSTERS 3? James is right! That movie would be dope! It can have Harold Ramis funeral scene, which finally brings Bill and Dan together. it could have hinted that Harold becomes a ghost maybe? and haunts Bill Murray. And at the end they steal all of copies of the reboot 2016 movie, and dump into an electric arc furnace, just like catching a ghost. While KZfaq hate energy is released , Jesse Eisenberg is trying to save all the copies, but gets ripped apart by You tube hate trolls for his role in BvS. And Harold Ramis resurrects, . It would be a movie about "ghost from the past" which this movie franchise has become. Also for some reason Woody Harrelson is in this movie, maybe as magic street performer who is obsessed about ghosts and Bill Murrayl.

I don't see why GB 2 got Sooooo much shit. that was an awesome movie. I mean come on, they made the statue of liberty move with a NES Advantage!

Murray wasn't pissed about Ghostbusters 2. He was pissed at Ramis over Groundhog Day.

Looking back at this video now, it has aged pretty well.

One thing you didn't mention about why Ghostbusters 3 didn't happen was the ongoing feud between Bill Murray and Harold Ramis following their fallout after filming "Groundhog Day." Which is pretty much the saddest feud imaginable, considering all the incredible work they'd done together.

Whaa???!! People hated Ghostbusters 2? Damn, that film was one of the most entertaining films I saw as a kid. The idea of a painting coming to life still is creepy.

Thankfully we at least got Ghostbusters the game, which indeed is the true Ghostbusters 3 worthy sequel. It's such a huge shame that they did the cashgrab reboot last year, it's not about who is in it. The whole script was worthless and the cheap cgi as well.

I wonder what u think of Ghostbusters afterlife?

I wrote this in the video in James's last video and I thought it would be nice to say it again in here: The studio should of used Harold Ramis death's as the main story element for the third film. Like, it takes place years later and the group had a falling out after Ramis's death. Ramis was killed by a demon who took possesson of him during a mission at a rural New York farm. Thats when a relative of Ramis's character (daughter or son who is a lot like Ramis's character) went out through New York city to find Bill Murray (or the character's son), Dan Aykroyd and Ernie Hudson to bring the team back together to fight against the demon that killed Harold Ramis. The demon wants to spread his possession powers to other humans as a way to take over the world so that satan can be brought onto earth. (demon or anti-christ as the villain.)

If anybody wants to hear why Reitman walked away, check out Mdnight's Edge YT Channel. What you'll discover is shocking. Bill Murray is in this new film yes but SONY threatened to sue him for jerking them around.

Is he going to say something about afterlife

Coming back to this after seeing Ghostbusters Afterlife! Please James! Do a review of it!
