Glad that it kinda bombed the chances of there being another reboot a Slimer spin off and them turning it into a franchise are pretty slim now.

The cast was fine I wouldn't have minded seeing them continue but with a better script. But Ghostbusters as a reboot was always an iffy proposition since it's such an old property, it'll likely be moth balled forever now. 

Kinda funny that $46 million as an opening isn't good enough anymore either, but you can't expect a 30+ year old franchise to come back, you need to be able to build an audience first. 

$46 million is actually a pretty good opening but not for a movie that had a $142 million dollar production budget.  I'm thinking that Sony will sell off Sony Pictures/Columbia eventually since the only successful franchise they have right now is Bond and they don't completely own that.  The most likely buyer is Fox since they recently tried but failed to buy Warner Brothers.
