Paul Feig is speaking out about his 2016 Ghostbusters movie after it was left out of an upcoming Blu-ray box set being dubbed as the "Ultimate Collection" of the franchise's films.

Feig, 59, directed the female-led reboot that starred Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Kate McKinnon, Leslie Jones and Chris Hemsworth, and he has frequently defended the movie against people online who maligned it before its release in theaters.

Original Ghostbusters stars Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd and Ernie Hudson each made cameos in the film, though not as their original characters. They do reprise their original characters in the sequel Ghostbusters: Afterlife, which hit theaters last month.

When a SlashFilm report pointed out that Sony was preparing to release a Blu-ray box set of the series without including the 2016 entry, Feig shared the story and called out Sony on Twitter.

"Um @SonyPictures, I know this must be a mistake," he wrote. "We do have a lot of fans and Bill, Dan and Ernie were in it and it won the Kids Choice Award for Best Feature Film the year it came out. So, I guess this was just an oversight? #weareallghostbusters."

The eight-disc Ghostbusters Ultimate Collection set includes the 1984 original, its 1989 sequel and Afterlife, plus bonus material. It's currently listed at $149.99 on Amazon for pre-order before it becomes available Feb. 1....

That's the biggest ripoff

Feig needs to quietly recognize that he made something nobody wanted and stop bringing attention to it.

For that price it should have the complete animated series too.

And the reboot with a skeet shooter and gun

Damn, the Kids Choice Award?

Correct me if I'm wrong but in the Afterlife canon, didn't 2 not happen?

$150 for three movies? They can fuck right off.

You're incorrect. It doesn't bring up the actual plot of it, however the director confirmed it was and there are several references. Afterlife is basically Strikers to Persona 5 Royal.

Kind of. There's some dialogue in afterlife that implies the second movie never happened, but the director has come out an explicitly stated that the first two movies are in continuity so it's most likely just a plot hole or error in the script.

It happened, Ray was in his shop from 2 in Afterlife when he got the phone call.

The 2016 movie was not in the same universe as the original movies so they probably left it out for that reason. This set is the movies all in the same universe where it is the 4 main guys then the long delayed 3rd live action movie Afterlife.

That actually is fucked

Ha nice analogy.

Thanks.

Get fucked, shitbag. You should have made a movie that wasn't wall to wall dogshit. As it stands, if they add that to the collection, they'd have to lower the price substantially.

Huh.

I got 1 and 2 for like $6.

So $50 per movie. Thanks, but no thanks. But lol at excluding the 2016 movie.

"Ultimate collection" without one of the movies and lacking the cartoon, which is one of like two good Ghostbusters things ever made, for an absurd price. Lame.

$150 for three movies?

For that price, it'd better come with a complimentary...

Of course they left it out, they want people to buy the collection.

For that price, they should throw in both cartoons and all four movies.

They might as well go the extra mile and include all the cutscenes from the game that was kind of in continuity strung together to make a mini movie. Sort of like how Kingdom hearts did it on their complete collection.

Even if they did, people would take it out of the box set and toss it in the trash.

If they put the 2016 movie in everyone would just throw it out anyway.

They sometimes put the 1998 Godzilla movie in the Godzilla collections.

Yeah but even though it was a bad Godzilla movie, it was still a fun watch.

Fuck, they should toss in the original Ghostbusters tv show that they had to buy the name from.

And the cartoon that came later.

Sounds like a giant ripoff anyway.

I'd love Sony to reply with a short and sweet "Nope, no mistake!"

Price is ridiculous though, $50 a movie? Should be $60 total.

The 2016 one has nothing to do with the other 3 so Iunno why it would be in there

It would also devalue the box set.

Lmao at them not considering that piece of trash movie but $150 for it is way too much
