TGE Ep 8 – Summer Movie Podcast – July 2016

“Who’s afraid of those ghosts?”

For the July Summer movie episode, Rhonda and I take on the ever controversial Ghostbusters reboot. There was quite a bit of fuss about the casting of a female Ghostbusters team and the internet exploded after the first trailer dropped, making it the lowest ranked TV trailer in the site’s history. We discuss the controversy and what we thought stood out in the movie (Holtzmann Forever!) and what didn’t work as well (man candy).

The all-star cast includes Melissa McCarthy, Leslie Jones, Kristin Wiig, and Kate McKinnon. Listen to hear us discuss the good and bad moments, what we enjoyed and could have done without. 

We also have some excellent shows for your summer binge-watching in our streaming recommendations. Make sure to check out Crazy Ex-Girlfriends and Ash vs Evil Dead on Starz or via Amazon Prime subscription.

To Discuss

What other gender-swapped TV shows or movies do you remember? When does it work or not work and why?

Until next time, get your geek on!
