While pumping Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Leslie Jones, and Kate McKinnon for info – who’s most likely to Google herself, most likely to forget her lines (both which happen to be Jones) – the late night host asked, “Who is most likely to show up at a party uninvited?”

As for those middle-aged trolls living in their mother’s basement, the original Ghostbusters have a very strong message for you: if you’re clogging up the Internet with derogatory statements about the female cast, you’re not only backwards, you’re also astonishingly wrong. McCarthy, who sarcastically referred to them as “terrific fellas”, took a moment to call out the harassing group.
If there’s anyone who has any authority criticizing the Ghostbusters reboot, it’s probably Aykroyd and Murray. Giving it his seal of approval, he said, “When you see the film, and you’ll delight in [it], it sort of rumbles along in the beginning”. He knows that this is a big movie to make and that the concept itself is quite large, which means it can be hard to pull it off successfully.
Ghostbusters makes its long-awaited return, rebooted with a cast of hilarious new characters.
The all-female reboot of Ghostbusters has caused quite a bit of controversy out there and the ladies made their way to Jimmy Kimmel Live last night to discuss the haters and get a special meeting with the original Ghostbusters cast! But there is just no quit in these girls… “Danny and I and Ernie and Annie were just screaming like we were at a sporting event at the end of it”. Aykroyd and Murray have spoken anyway, and I believe them when they say it’s worth the watch.

Naturally, they all had a dance to the “Ghostbusters” theme, played live by original artist Ray Parker Jr. Ghostbusters will reach Australian cinemas on July 14.
