To be fair. Why is it an all Female cast? Did anyone ask for that? I certainly don't remember hearing "Oh, Ghostbusters need to be remade with an all female cast".

Nobody wanted a Ghostbusters remake.

(starting off with that last sentence and working backwards) The problem is that the studio wanted a Ghostbusters remake. And if you start from the premise that it was going to happen anyway, at least this is slightly more interesting than a straight copy/reboot.
The trailer didn't horrify me. It looked like a generic buddy comedy, sure. But all trailers look like that to me these days, regardless of the film. At the moment I'm just trusting in the fact that it's a really strong cast and a reasonable director, and they'll hopefully end up doing something interesting.
