Did you hear about the Ghost Busters Wii version?

Ghostbusters was pretty cool when I was 5-10 years old, but as an adult it is lame as hell. I can't believe that anyone wants to play a game based on a comedy from the 80s...

That being said, Wii games are constantly made with cartoony graphics whether you want to admit it or claim that you like it better than realistic graphics. Personally, it is nice to see improvements in every part of a game, including graphics, otherwise you are playing the same old crap over and over forever.

It's not just "a comedy from the 80's."  It's the most successful comedy of the entire decade.  And it didn't earn that title by just being for kids.  The movie is funny for all ages, and is still funny today.  I probably watch it once a year, but I should watch it more.  Good writing doesn't go bad.

Oh, I see... you think old movies suck and old graphics suck, and old everything sucks.  Well, enjoy all your new stuff.

LMAO, most successful comedy of the decade? Are you kidding me? Where exactly did you come up with that BS. And I happen to like a lot of older stuff, like movies, but I happen to have good taste and like good movies...

 

Anyone who doesn't like Ghostbusters can't possibly have good taste in movies.

From wikipedia:

With inflation adjustments, the film's original release grossed over US$500 million in the U.S., making it one of the highest grossing films of 1984 and the 31st highest grossing film of all time, domestically.^[2]

and...

In 2000, readers of Total Film magazine voted Ghostbusters the 44th greatest comedy film of all time. The American Film Institute ranked it 28th in its list of the top 100 comedies of all time (in their "AFI's 100 Years... 100 Laughs" list). In 2005, IGN voted Ghostbusters the greatest comedy ever. In 2006, Bravo ranked Ghostbusters 76 on their "100 Funniest Movies" list. In 2009, National Review magazine ranked "Ghostbusters" number 10 on its 25 Best Conservative Movies of the Last 25 Years list ^[4].

The 80's had some great movies of a similar nature. Back to the Future, Gremlins, The Breakfast Club, Goonies, etc. All are instant classics and amazing movies that even my kids now love. But, to say that Ghostbusters isn't in the top 10 or even good?! My God man... I don't even know what to say.

 

I never said any of the things you just said. I said that it is not the most successful comedy of the entire decade. First off, you can't possibly make that claim for any movie. The movie was very successful, and was good as a kid. However, as an adult and in today's world I would not consider it to be a good movie anymore.
