The results are in.

$46 million, #2 behind The Secret Life of Pets, in the middle of the $40-$50 million estimate.
So in other words, right what was predicted.
Let's remember - these are only estimates. We won't know how the film really did till this Monday.
I don't expect it to make much more given that there'll be the new Star Trek film this Friday.
"They say I'm old fashioned, and live in the past, but sometimes I think progress progresses too fast."...isn't that kind of her shtick
? Granted Winston was supposed to be an entirely different character.

Here's a tweet I found just now. (I don't know how to post a tweet, so this'll have to suffice.)
One guy writes to her:
"the fact that you don't understand this explains why your comedy is so bad. Fat Amy = fat. Lesdoggg = dog Get it?"
She responds back:
"no I don't get cause you not funny you dickless fuck you enjoy picking on women. Explains why you a Virgin"
(All verbatim, folks.)
Real class act there. Surely a professional comedian could come up with a better response than that?

Everyone involved in that exchange is a horrible human being but you can't guilt me into watching a film. Seriously, everyone. If you hate the film that much, purchase tickets to Star Trek and point out why you spent money on that and not Ghostbusters.
Maybe this is why Sony announced a sequel even if the numbers will probably see it ending up like Amazing Spider-Man 3.

Nobody's making themselves look good here.
I'm not denying there's some racist shit going on there, but maybe, just maybe, Leslie Jones could prove herself to be more mature than the trolls and not resort to calling them virgins?
It's not out yet, so what can we really do?
When it does come out, though, then we'll all have an excuse.
