At this point I'm surprised Dan Aykroyd isn't in this.

Ghostbuster fans are legendary. The fact that Ghostbusters isn't very good only adds to the legend.

John Holmes Motherfucker HE SLIMED ME!
It's not that bad. It's just sort of lacking in humanity.. I can see why the National Review liked it.

Old_Zircon It doesn't need humanity, it's got Bill Murray.

And my initial comment really was meant to convey my sincere affection for the fans. THEY'RE not lacking in humanity.

What is with this generation's obsession with using intellectual property they don't own? This cost money! They can't ever make money from this!

Just more proof that almost anything prefixed with "fan-" is going to be terrible. Fan-fiction and fan-films especially.
I'm reminded of the time I, out of curisosity went to a general Sci-Fi convention years ago partly because a friend I'd known since high-school was there running some sort of viewing room and he'd had various goobers try to get him to screen their fanfilms - most of which seemed to be Star Wars or Doctor Who fanfilms shot on VHS starring doughy, spherical non-actors who engaged in "firefights" with toy weapons while awkwardly scrambling around various "abandoned shopping plaza" type locations meant to be exotic alien locales.

I'm impressed by the production values. Not just the effects, but the cinematography. Watched about twenty minutes and then I was distracted by something, and left it running in the next room. I couldn't make out much, but it seems like 90 seconds doesn't go by without someone saying the word "Ghostbusters".
No, it's not very good. They must have had a GREAT time making this, and I'm sure have a GREAT time watching this. I don't know if anything else matters.
