Sony’s Columbia Pictures is attempting to block out the negative press by spreading a new trailer that’s littered with spooks.

There’s really nothing new in regards to the plot, other than learning that the Ghostbusters’ assistant, Kevin (Chris Hemsworth), gets possessed and becomes a tool for destruction.

But I digress, the trailer has a lot more CGI, and that’s clearly going to be one of the breaking point for fans. The more I see, the worse it looks, especially the ectoplasm tornado that just looks like green vomit sprayed across the sky.

Then there’s the ghosts (including Slimer), which are all revealed. Rowan, confirmed as the big baddie who looks like the Ghostbusters logo, appears to be the modern version of Stay Puft (see above).

“SNL” vet Neil Casey is the main Ghostbusters villain, Rowan, and was described as a convicted murderer who turns into a ghost after his execution is hit by a supercharged electrical storm. This gives him the power to raise an army of other ghosts, which could be made up of famous villains throughout history.

In the trailer we also catch a glimpse of him as a spook, which makes me think the logo ghost version of himself happens when he possibly possesses something with the actual logo on it.

There’s also a new shot of the villain Mayhem, who partakes in a really stupid joke at the concert we keep seeing footage from.

What bothers me the most about the film, in general, is that director Paul Feig has filmed cameos for many of the original Ghostbusters cast, including Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, Annie Potts, and even Sigourney Weaver. But they don’t play the same characters, which is just, I don’t know, stupid?

Anyways, there are some readers who are excited for this, and it’s unfair to condemn is completely without having seen it first. I will say this, though, we have kept our coverage to the absolute minimum. If anything, I’m really interested in seeing how all the negative hype affects the box office for the film. How powerful is our collective voice if people still vote “yes” with their wallets? There’s going to be a lot to take away from this when it hits theaters come July.

The worst cane scenario? We at least get to drink Ecto Cooler for an entire summer…
