‘Ghostbusters’ Debuts to $46 Million, ‘Secret Life of Pets’ Tops Charts
LOS ANGELES - Paul Feig’s “Ghostbusters” reboot has triggered intense debate over its decision to refashion the proton pack-wielding paranormal investigators as an all-female team. For some, the movie has been a feminist rallying cry; for others, a pop culture desecration. It’s also provided ample opportunity for internet trolls to engage in some misogyny. After all the chatter and the gender politics, “Ghostbusters” debuted this weekend to a solid $46 million from 3,962 locations. Sony hailed the results as evidence that audiences were responding to its new take on the decades-old property. But though it ranks as the best debut for a liveaction comedy in over a year, the film
will have to show some endurance, as well as resonate with foreign audiences, to make a profit. After all, dusting off the ectoplasm was expensive, with Sony shelling out $144 million to make “Ghostbusters” and millions more to market the film. That tops what most comedies cost to produce and distribute. Sony has been trying to get another “Ghostbusters” off the ground for decades, but it has often been the victim of original star Bill Murray’s mercurial vetting process.

Indonesia begins re-vaccinating victims of fake drug ring
JAKARTA - Indonesia on Monday began revaccinating nearly 200 children who received fake versions of imported inoculations from a drugcounterfeiting ring broken up last month after operating for more than a decade. President Joko Widodo urged calm as public uproar intensified over revelations that health officials knew about the syndicate producing the fake vaccines for several years but did little to stop it. The scandal has exposed major weaknesses in the government’s oversight of the health sector, which has expanded rapidly alongside a growing middle class. No illnesses or deaths have been directly linked to the fake vaccines, officials have said. “I want to ask people to stay calm because this incident happened over such a long time,” Widodo told reporters at a Jakarta clinic offering re-vaccinations. “We need more time to investigate so we can get the real data of people who suffered from these fake vaccines.” The ring used stolen vials and forged labels to make the fake medicine look like imported vaccines produced by GlaxoSmithKline and Sanofi. State-owned Bio Farma produces nearly all vaccines available in Indonesia. The syndicate sold fake booster vaccines for hepatitis B, diphtheria, tetanus and whooping cough to at least 14 health facilities in Jakarta and elsewhere on Java island. Health officials said the sham vaccines contained the antibiotic gentamicin and saline solution and were not harmful and made up only 1 percent of total vaccines in Indonesia. Investigators are trying to determine how widely the fake drugs were distributed.
Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones, is clearly designed to trigger a fresh array of sequels. “There absolutely will be more,” said Josh Greenstein, Sony’s marketing and distribution chief. “This is a restart of one of our most important brands.” The audience for the film skewed female, with women making up 54% of ticket buyers. It also resonated more strongly with older crowds, weaned on the 1984 original and its 1989 sequel, as 55% of the audience clocked in over the age of 25. Despite Greenstein’s optimism, some analysts argued the results were underwhelming. (rtr)

DENPASAR - The action on rejection against the Benoa Bay reclamation in disguise of revitalization is incessantly inflamed by Balinese people coalesced into the agreement (pasubayan) of customary vil-
lages rejecting reclamation. On Sunday (Jul. 17) was the turn for three customary villages, namely the Sanur, Intaran and Penyaringan to state their rejection against the Benoa Bay reclamation. Moreover, they (Sanur, Intaran and Penyaringan—Ed) asked President Jokowi to immediately cancel and revoke the Presidential Regulation No. 51/2014
