Dan Aykroyd, co-star and co-writer of the original Ghostbusters movies, attacked director Paul Feig for over-spending on last summer's remake. The Ghostbusters remake is considered a box office flop, having made an estimated $70 million loss.Aykroyd claims that Feig's over-spending and refusal to shoot additional scenes directly led to the film's failure, ensuring that the Ghostbusters franchise will not continue.By the time Paul Feig's all-female Ghostbusters reboot finally reached theaters last summer, the movie itself had been regrettably eclipsed by the ugly cultural noise surrounding it. Between fans and non-fans getting caught up in accusations of ruined childhoods and thinly-veiled sexism, the movie's cast and creators were forced to address the controversy in every interview, and the overall tone of the thing had gone sour long before the movie bombed—despite generally strong reviews—at the box office. And a year later, there's still a lot of ill feeling around the remake.Dan Aykroyd, who starred in and co-wrote both the original Ghostbusters and its sequel, lashed out at Feig over the weekend for blowing his budget and destroying any shot the franchise had at more sequels. "He spent too much on it and he didn't shoot scenes we suggested to him," Aykroyd said during an interview on the British talk show Sunday Brunch, per The Hollywood Reporter. "Several scenes that were going to be needed, he said, 'No, we don't need them.' And then we tested the movie and they needed them, and he had to go back—about $30 to $40 million in reshoots." Though Ghostbusters made $229 million worldwide against a $144 million production budget, it's still estimated to have made roughly a $70 million loss thanks to the large amount spent on marketing (which is not factored into the production budget). " will not be back on the Sony lot any time soon," Aykroyd continued. "It made a lot of money around the world, but it just cost too much, making it economically not feasible to do another one."The strange part of this is that Aykroyd is on record as an enthusiastic fan of Feig's Ghostbusters. "Apart from brilliant, genuine performances from the cast both female and male, it has more laughs and more scares than the first two films plus Bill Murray is in it!" Aykroyd wrote on Facebook at the time of the movie's release last year. But that was back before the box office receipts came in, and as the old cliche goes, you're only as good as your last hit.
