Just a few hours ago the website Alternet.org published a piece about the new Ghostbusters movie that’s coming to theaters summer 2016. The thing is, and I think a lot of you know that already, that this movie’s one of the most disliked trailers on YouTube ever and that’s what Aletrnet wanted to talk about in their post.

The author, Elizabeth Preza, tells the readers that despite people being constantly rephrasing and complaining that the movie seems to be really bad, the real reason behind all this hate has misogyny all over it.

For those of you who have been living under a rock for the past few months, allow me to give a very short explanation: Director Paul Feig wanted to do a remake of one of hollywood’s most beloved comedies of all time, Ghostbusters. The movie was announced and last year the news came out that he was doing something completely different with the story and changing the male leads for female characters. Actresses and comedians Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones were chosen as the main characters. The trailer has been posted online on March 3rd, 2016 and since then, it’s had over 30M views and 600K dislikes on YouTube. Here’s the trailer for your appreciation.

You don’t have to be a movie critic or even a movie goer to know that this doesn’t look like the smart comedy we were all expecting.

The problem is that the world is going through a big change now. Women everywhere are trying to get attention for being underpaid and underappreciated, so when someone like a hollywood director stands up and changes the story of a big remake just to make room for more actresses to work as lead characters, it gets a thousand times harder to see this hate towards this good act, but that doesn’t mean this is based on the gender of the characters any more than on the fact that the trailer looks a little bad.

Everyone seems to be generalizing this in the easiest way possible by saying the hatred is misogynous and forgetting that the original movie was released in ’84, over 30 years ago! Changes had to be made, even bigger than the sexes of the main characters, in order for the movie to have the passing people are used to nowadays. Bigger scenes were added, a new script was written, new characters showed up, and the original fans didn’t appreciate that.

The audience was expecting a remake that would make them feel like they were watching the same movie, something as successful and well made as both the new Star Wars Episode VII and Jungle Book, but instead they got this messed up teaser, too exaggerated, with that pathetic romantic background story that does not fit with what people want to see nowadays. It would’ve been better to make a sequel instead of a remake, and probably hold back on the girly, cutsie stuff that’s making the original male based fandom feel weird.

We just have to accept that it has nothing to do with misogyny. Sure, some of the haters must be misogynists, there are all sorts of haters everywhere, but thank God these people aren’t the majority. Good people are the majority, and they don’t like to watch a poorly written movie or it’s trailer with all the bad, non dynamic jokes and, guess what, that gives away pretty much the entire story! Nothing to do with sexes or anything else besides the actual trailer for a change.
