15 Worst Movie Moments Of 2016

15. The Stay Puft Balloon - Ghostbusters

One of the key reasons Ghostbusters fans were unhappy with the reboot is that the new film would ignore the original films, and create its own canon. It sounded like an extreme approach, but it was intended to let the filmmakers work free of continuity.

That didn’t stop them trying to shoehorn in a bunch of out of place cameos and easter eggs, and the third act really overdoses on Ghostbusters nostalgia. It takes one step too far when the team encounter some evil balloons, with one being in the shape of the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.

It’s a dumb, distracting scene that only serves to show how great the original is, and the reboot would have been better off not reminding viewers of Stay Puft at all; especially with his lame replacement about to arrive.
