    Also, is it in bad taste to take a 2 and 4 year old to see Ghostbusters? And just be screaming at them, "THIS IS GREAT ISN'T IT?!?!"
    Only if you neglect to record and share.

    This ghostbusters movie is really supposed to be good? Other than the first trailer, they've all looked really blah to me. Plus having the kid from Stranger Things star in it seems a bit redundant. We get it, kid: fun science fiction is your thing.

    It was awesome. I'm going to see it a second time on Friday. And Ghostbusters is my favorite movie, so if it sucked, I'd tell ya it sucked. But it was great. The trailers give away so little that it had me going in with low expectations, but the movie was great. I could nitpick a few things, but why bother.

    Ghostbusters, Jaws, Lebowski - in that order.

    I cannot wait for this movie. After that abomination of a remake they did with Kristen Whiig (and I like her!) this looks like complete redemption

    Yeah if ya love the first one, you’ll enjoy it. Early views of the trailer had me a bit down too (ugh…kids?). But I couldn’t have been more wrong. The Stranger Things kid is kinda useless, but his sister steals the movie. I don’t think I’m spoiling it to say she’s Egon’s granddaughter cause that’s referenced in the promotion. And dude, she channels Harold Rhamis. Frankly, she’s so good that the cameo by Venkman and company, while appreciated, wasn’t even necessary. 

    Lot of good call backs, while also advancing the 1st movie’s story. I’ve read some reviews that were down on “fan service,” but I’m a fan, so service me!

    Yeah I laughed a couple times. I wouldn’t label it a “comedy” as the first one is considered, but there’s a couple good one liners here and there.

    I remember having a couple of the Clifford books when i was a kid. I think one was him joining the circus or something like that.

    There's a whole segment on Real Sports about Jeff Ament's skate parks in MT. It is enjoyable.

    I know right? The first thing I thought of was "how long has this show been on"? By the way, it's been on since 1995 and Bryant Gumbel hasnt missed one in all that time.

    Welp we got a reliever. So that's cool. 

    At least it's only a 1 year deal. 

    Now about to dive into a lockout with just a stellar lineup ready to finish 3rd or 4th.

    Gonna try for the Friday night Beacon show, along with everyone else in the country. Should be very promising!
