I don't like everything she does, but I like Melissa McCarthy.  I thought she was a great choice.

I don't care about the gimmick of being "all girl".
My hope is that the writers made a good flick.

During filming of Airplane, Leslie Nielsen used a whoopee cushion to keep the cast off-balance. Hays said that Nielsen "played that thing like a maestro"

Agreed.
Any time is a good time for pie.

Agreed.

+1 I actually like the idea of all female leads. However, I'm sceptical that it's going to be a good film. The first one was an almost perfect movie and the 2nd was such a dud.  And now with Harold Ramis gone, I wish they'd just leave it be.

Think of it as an homage, rather than a remake or reboot.  Paul Feig worked with McCarthy on The Heat, and I rather enjoyed that.

No good will come of this.....  :(

Lol. I like Paul Feig's work, but Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy are two of my least favorite actresses. So I'm going to have to pass :P

I'm fuzzy on the whole good/bad thing

Crossing the streams would be the best possible outcome....

Gusington

One of my favorites of all time...I hope this all does the original some justice. Can we count on this female cast?

And we have a winner!!


Kristen Wiig is in it, too, non?  I like her.  Bridesmaids was a good movie.  And has anyone seen So This Is 40?  McCarthy has a small part in that and the ad lib in the principals office is pretty good.
