It did n’t really go with Star Wars : The Force Awakens , but Ghostbusters : Frozen Empire has what I describe as aForce Awakens - tail end trailer . A minimal suggestion of what the movie ’s actual plot is , and a lot of familiar faces suiting back up and everyone else reminding us they do it about the specific Ghostbusters affair you also know about .
That ’s a bit gripe - y , yes , but while Frozen Empire ’s retiring trailers have largely tried to surround around the refund familiarity tofocus on the gelid chillshaunting New York this time around — except for the Ghostbusters firehouse , of trend , but it ’s sort of tough to parry around a building like that — this new spirit is all in on reminding you that yes , the old stamp are back , yes , they even gotAnnie Potts this time too , yes , they ’re all in the uniform , and yes , they ’re very cognizant that busting makes you feel skilful .
It ’d be mostly hunky-dory if not for Paul Rudd ’s strained nod to the legendary vocal as an businesslike call to arms — a billet so strained it managed to make the usally seemingly unaging Paul Rudd actually physically age try out to get through it — which really pushes this poke over into the nudge jog , wink wink nostalgia overload dominion . Which is order something , because it ’s very much one of those trailers anyway the way it leans heavily on the persist members of the honest-to-goodness sentry go coming back . The international prevue , at least , dial back the nostalgia much more , and offer much more brainstorm into the solidification up around the mysterious specter army at the heart of the film :

But really , it ’s Janine ’s classic line in the main trailer that speaks to the whole poking of the matter here : what does Frozen Empire really need ? What does it have to extend , beyond the cheap shudder of a few battered old suits and firehouse ?
We ’ll encounter out come March 22 .
