Hmmm, although I don't think this is going to be a good film, I'm not too sure of your reasoning. There's nothing blue collar about Physicists and Scientist. There's nothing particularly wrong with female leads in these types of roles, either. The problem is that this remake is totally off mark for tone, look and feel for this type of story, as established by the original. The big question is why did they bother with a reboot when a sequel would've allowed them to cover so much new ground with the idea of a all female or mixed gender group of leading actors. The reboot means they are pretty much stuck telling the same story again, just with female leads. They tried to differentiate it by making it an SNL skit version of the original, rather than taking the subject matter seriously enough to make an entertaining scary comedy.
