‘Ghostbusters’ Female Reboot Paul Feig Responds To Critics: Kristen Wiig, Leslie Jones, Kate McKinnon & Melissa McCarthy Not Ruining Sexist Childhoods [2016]

“Bustin makes us feel good,” and it makes Paul Feig good too. Feig, is directing the upcoming 2016 all female Ghostbusters reboot, starring Kristen Wiig, Leslie Jones, Kate McKinnon & Melissa McCarthy and apparently ruining the childhoods of misogynist everywhere, while he is at it. Now Feig is responded to the internets black lash, busting one of the dumbest utterances 30 year-olds keep repeating these days.

Paul Feig recently opened up to Variety about the river of slime that exist on the internet:

“The Internet is really funny -- I love it, but I hate it at the same time. The first wave when you make an announcement like that is overwhelmingly positive. Everyone’s so happy and you’re like, ‘This is great.’ Then comes the second wave and you’re like, Oh my God. Some of the most vile, misogynistic s**t I’ve ever seen in my life.”

Feig went on to discuss the most aggravating complaint coming his way:

“The biggest thing I’ve heard for the last four months is, ‘Thanks for ruining my childhood.’ It’s going to be on my tombstone when I die. It’s so dramatic. Honestly, the only way I could ruin your childhood is if I got into a time machine and went back and made you an orphan.”

That reminds us an awful lot of something we reported on a few weeks back:

“Recently, director Paul Feig announced that he was going to ruin the childhoods of thousands of misogynist, by answering the question ‘Who you gonna call,’ with Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones. That is right, Feig is going to go back in time and break all of your Real Ghostbusters figures, expect your Super Fright Features Janine Melnitz (with Boo Fish Ghost), as part of the continued effort to sissify America with his new all female Ghostbusters reboot.”
