There's supposed to be a bomb there
Plus 100m ad campaign

Let me put how big of a flop ghostbusters is into perspective... The movie needs about 500m to break even at the box office. Next week is star trek. The week after Bourne. Movie tickets are 100% more expensive than they were when the original came out. This movie won't match the original release domestic total which is half of what they need to break even.

As for highest release for director and McCarthy... I'm sure the massive 100m ad budget  and having the ghostbuster name has something to do with it

Oh, and the toys have already been discontinued at stores
Why does it need 500  million to break even?
