Lol... it may be aimed more at the young adult market, but after the abomination of the last reboot I'll take that!

And presume that Jason Reitman is Ivan Reitman's son?

It's a decent trailer, I just hope it doesn't have to rely so much on nostalgia.

Oh god, we're going to get a terrible CGI Egon ghost aren't we? :(

Not gonna lie, I thought that too, but I'd like to think they're not going to digitally resurrect an actor to play a dead character, that's just too tactless. Clearly Ray and Jeanine are in this, let's hope they leave it at that.

I just hope this has a decent story. I don't have much of an objection for showing nostalgia fuel in the trailer, but once they've sold the ticket, the film needs to stand on its own legs. Most modern attempts to bring back classic franchises just can't seem to get that balance right.

It makes it look very JJ Abrams just without the lense flare. I'll give it the benefit of the doubt that it might be worth a look.

I've really wanted to see The Green Knight in the cinema since the first trailer came out. It's getting great reviews but it's been pulled from release in this part of the world for no apparent reason. The film is already going to be streamed in the US next week and it hasn't even been released in Europe. Well I ain't paying to see it now am I... #-o

Loved Molina in his original Doc Ock role, can't wait for more.

That looks like a pretty fun time to me. Doctor Strange was one of my favourite MCU films, so I'm always happy to see more of him, but am I right in thinking his next solo outing was supposed to be titled Into the Multiverse of Madness? Spoiler for the end of the Spider-Man film?

Had to stop watching. That was the whole film wasn't it?

I've started to realise that I don't remember a damn thing from trailers unless I watch the film soon afterwards. I'll not remember any of that by December, except that Doctor Strange is in it.

Hopefully Rusty that means you missed the bit at the end of it. Don't go back, you might enjoy that more as a surprise.
