Leslie Jones Takes a Somewhat Hypocritical Stance on "Ghostbusters 3"




Sony Pictures: "Ghostbusters: Afterlife" Official Trailer ...


Leslie Jones, one of the stars of the 2016 Ghostbusters reboot, recently took to Twitter to express her outrage over the premise of the upcoming Ghostbusters 3. The movie, to be directed by the son (Jason Reitman) of the original film's director (Ivan Reitman) will reportedly serve as a direct sequel to 1989's Ghostbusters II, essentially ignoring the existence of the 2016 movie. And that's what pissed Jones off.

The thing is, that film ignored the existence of Ghostbusters II and the 1984 original -- which is what reboots do. Jones even complained that the filmmakers' decision to ignore the 2016 movie is something that Trump would do. Though four actors from the first two Ghostbusters films (Ernie Hudson, Bill Murray, Dan Akroyd and Sigourney Weaver) made cameos in the reboot, none of them reprised their earlier roles.  Ironically, Jones decision to publicly vent her highly hypocritical frustrations on Twitter actually is something that Trump would do. See the comedian's comments below:




“So insulting. Like f—k us. We dint count,” “It’s like something trump would do. (Trump voice) ‘Gonna redo ghostbusteeeeers, better with men, will be huge. Those women ain’t ghostbusteeeeers’ ugh so annoying. Such a d—k move. And I don’t give f—k I’m saying something!!”
