I'm new here but found this thread from a Google search. I have thought that the newer films are way too glossy and cartoony. The first two films were gritty and the horror elements were a bit creepier. They weren't full on horror, but the lore and depiction was much scarier in my opinion. Now, I don't know if it's because I saw these movies as a kid and they actually did scare me, but on rewatching them they still give me that creepy vibe in a way that the new films simply do not. They're too polished. Ghostbusters can still retain comedy but they desperately need more of the creepy and gritty element.
