That's right: Sony wants to be able to make money by appealing to their fanbase, instead of junt insulting them... and it's ALL YOUR FAULT.

Ghostbusters (2020), aka Ghostbusters 3, is an upcoming sequel in the Ghostbusters franchise. But unlike (and yet similar to) the Fembusters movie which preceded it, Ghostbusters 2020 will actually ignore the previous film in the franchise, and in turn take place in the same universe as the first two Ghostbusters films. This fact alone will make it infinitely better than Fembusters... at least until the filmmakers decide to inject SJW grievance politics into it for some reason.

Life in a Post-Fembusters World

Moar info: Fembusters.

2016's Fembusters film (aka Ghostbusters: Answer the Call, aka Ghostbusters: Actually Just Don't Pick Up The Phone) was the start in a thread of really shitty movies which represented a blatant takeover of famous AND successful media franchises, such as Star Trek, Star Wars, Doctor Who, etc. Specifically, some Media exec in control of a popular franchise feels that they're making too much money off them and that's not a good thing. So they hatch a plan to make sure they ruin the reputations of both the media franchise AND their careers, and that's a good thing! Their plan is simple, really:

  • STEP 1: Piss off fans who are paying customers
  • STEP 2: Prove your new film is on the side of SJWs
  • STEP 3: ??????
  • STEP 4: PROFIT!!

Too bad reality doesn't work the same way these execs think they do, and this has consistently proven itself to be a surefire way to LOSE MONEY.

Like with Steps 1 and 2... long time fans tend to be the ones who spend the most on your franchise. We're talking about tens of thousands of dollars. Per person. Insulting them, like calling them manbabies, saying they still live in their mother's basement, calling them misogynist women-haters (despite still living with their mothers), etc... that tends to make them NOT want to spend their tens-of-thousands-of-dollars on your products.

SJWs, on the other hand, are rarely long time fans who spend that kind of money on your franchise, IF they spend any money on you to begin with. In fact, SJWs tend to take the position that people are NORMALLY supposed to be pro-women, pro-gay, anti-white, anti-men, etc. Therefore, they question why they should reward anyone for doing something they're SUPPOSED to be doing in the first place? This is why appealing to SJWs is always a losing scenario, and for some reason execs never seem to catch onto this.

Fembusters was the first movie to start this trend of politicizing their movies as a way to "expand" their franchise beyond the "traditionally" male fanbase (or so they thought), as well as the first casualty in that trend. Other franchises tried to follow suit, but are also now beginning to realize they made a big mistake as well (some sooner than others, like with Star Trek Discovery's Season 2). And so it's no surprise that the first one to backpedal and return to their original formula of "not pissing off fans = MAD PROFITS" would be the Ghostbusters franchise.

Initial Reactions

On January 15th, 2019, the very first information of a new Ghostbusters sequel was released.

"Ghostbusters 3 is the fault of Donald Trump and you toxic white male fans!"

You mad Leslie Jones?

Paul Feig to the white knighting!

After a jealous and butthurt Leslie Jones threw another series of her shit-fits on Twitter over the upcoming and REAL Ghostbusters movie for cheap ass-pats, she suddenly plays her favorite game, the blame game, and blame it on.... oh, I know! The Eeeeeevil Orange Man himself: Donald Trump! And if Donald Trump heard the news of the Ghostbusters sequel, he would approve, just like he disapproves of Fembusters and quote: "What were they thinking?" That obviously makes the new Ghostbusters INSTANTLY EVIL and we need to stop it!

Of course she would cry self-victim for pity ass-pats from her followers, including male feminist ally journalists like Scott Mendelson of Forbes to write cringeworthy woke articles about it, saying it's the fault of the toxic white males. Little does Scott Mendelson know that he's a white male himself. At least there's no Ghostbusters article by Brianna Wu since 100% of it is nothing but playing victim card and blaming everything on GamerGate.

And then comes Paul Feig, the king of male feminist allies, the lord of cuckoldry, the white knight of the social justice round, the bane of all Ghostbusters fandom. After hearing the big mouth wailing of a unfunny comedian from Fembusters on Twitter, he comes to the rescue to defend her from the evil white male trolls and gives Jason Reitman's Ghostbusters 2020 sequel so much shit because Fembusters don't count as canon.
