Can GB be remade successfully

This question's been on my mind as now Paul Fieg's taken his stance against an angry fanbase and says "well deal with it" basically.

Should we deal with it? Should we not give a damn about preserving Ghostbuster's reputation as a great movie franchise that deserves to be treated as such?

It's to me like remaking Home Alone. It's not impossible to remake that movie, but it's gonna be TOUGH AS HELL to do better than what they accomplished in that one. In fact Home Alone 2 is practically a remake of Home Alone 1 and it SUUUUUUCKED. So there you go as far as potentially remaking a pretty darn good first movie.

What kind of movie does he have and is it all that and we just don't know it... Should I even care? It's like the Transformers thing to me. No they're not remakes, but Bay said the same thing, DEAL WITH IT when it came to his complete massacre of the Transformers name.

I certainly hope I'm wrong. And this movie's not just big budget studio bullshit on toast. I mean there's some good to be had from a succesfful relaunch of ghost busters. YEAH we may have a shitty all girl movie for starters, but if it blows up, we'll get TONS of retro ghostbusters stuff coming down the pipe to capitalize on the new movie. So there will be stuff dedicated to the old films coming along to scoop up money alongside whatever they make regarding the new crew. It's like how Bay-formers ignited a HUGE re-surgance of G1 transformers stuff because now was the time to definitely bring that stuff back.

So if nothing else good comes of this, it could lead to a lot of cool Original GB stuff, all things taken into consideration...
