A person who claims to work in post production (I'm guessing at Sony) has posted a breakdown of the new Ghostbusters on Reddit, which you could see here but not any more. 'Deep Throat' as they shall be known claims to have seen an early version of the movie and describes the plot from start to finish and reveals details of the original cast members cameo appearances.
Obviously there is no way of confirming the authenticity until the movie is released but if it's real the reboot will be terrible. Now, Deep Throat claims to have seen an early version which means improvements could have been made. It's also possible that because it's a quick summary that's poorly written it makes the movie sound worse than it is, especially considering most of the comedy is either absent or lost. Deep Throat may just not like the movie or the fact that it's a reboot and this is his way of showing it, maybe even sabotaging it.
Ever since I heard Sony was rebooting Ghostbusters I've been on the fence about it. I definitely think they should stop rebooting classics, maybe this movie will be good because it's not a carbon copy, but I doubt it will be as good as the original. Having said that, I will probably go and see the reboot, even if it's just to see how it compares. The comedy of Paul Feig is very different to that of Harold Ramis, Dan Aykroyd and Ivan Reitman. I'm not sure how well Feig's comedy will sync with Ghostbusters but I'll give him a chance. The post on Reddit, although interesting, has done nothing to change my opinion.
