Personally, I was upset they remade it (plus, I just generally hate remakes now that we have almost nothing but), I hated the idea of women (especially since it screamed of either being a cheap gimmick or a really transparent and not very good way to sidle their way into the hearts of women (or feminists). The second trailer they made was better than the first one, but with what they show in the first....it doesn't look funny. Plus, though I still might not have liked it, it at least would have been more palatable to have women as the Ghostbusters if they would have made them the daughters of the original characters. They could have had them just starting out taking over the family business. And since they already established Peter as having a son, Oscar, could have been the new secretary.
