Ghostbusters 2016 was a shitshow, no doubt about that. There is alot of blame to go around for why it ended up so poor, the blame falls partly on everyone involved. If you look at the ingredients separately it feels like the movie had potential, you had a director who had done good work in the past, you had a producer who produced the original movies, you had multiple lead actors who had a comedy background and were well liked by many people. So, on the surface at least, it felt like the movie could have been good. The end result though was a terrible mess that felt more like a bad parody of the original Ghostbusters movies than a homage to them. I will say that I didn't take part in the hate campaign against anyone involved with the movie, it was a terrible movie but I felt no need to hate on those involved. I watched it, hated it, and moved on with my life, regretting the fact that Bill Murray held up Ghostbusters 3 so long that Harold Ramis died before it could be made.

I also didn't post anything of hate for the movie, just still didn't got around to go and watch (it is always on my maybe list, as was deathnote and I'm 2/3 in and finding it to be shit). But I do agree with you that it may be a case of a lot of good things that when mixed turns terrible. I didn't see her replies, but if she stood her ground without attacking back and accusing fans of any "ism" then she deserves respect.

My problem with Deathnote was not the casting, it was how light was portrayed.  Needless to say since you did not finish it, I will say only at the end does he come close to how the character is portrayed in the anime.  Bleach on the other hand is actually pretty good.
