Really? I loved the first one but ghost busters 2 fell short. Hopefully ghost busters 3 will step up and deliver some new material. Will this be a video store film or a movie house film? I’m looking foreword to seeing the trailer.

If Murray is telling the truth, then it is the best thing to happen. Firstly it will stop the movie just ending up a poor rehash of what’s gone before. But it will also allow them to introduce some new ghostbusting characters so that if this ends up being a success they can follow it up with another one but with the new characters being the focus, whilst the originals put in cameos.

They treated it like a spoiler, but its not even confirmed yet, and something like that would be in the trailer. You can’t spoil something that doesn’t exist yet.

Its not a spoiler.. its a rumour.

If this was the Shamhammer saying “I am making this movie where the main character is dead the whole time and you dont know it until the end” then it might be a spoiler. This is hardly going to ruin the movie. Its a rumour about the synopsis.

Is it a spoiler to say they might make this a “passing the torch” film? No. Because we don’t know that they are even going to do that either.

if your source felt this news was spoiler tag worthy, you think maybe you could have avoided putting the spoiler in the headline?

Personally, I think the idea is genius. It leads to all sort of interesting possibilities for the plot….and future GBs, if there are any…..I will take Murray any way I can get him, even though I have heard he’s a cranky pain in the arse to work with….brillant comic minds can be touchy….

i think its a horrible idea….i mean why make a buddy movie about a team of wise cracking funny guys catching ghosts….only to make the funniest guy have some crap fodder accident that makes him a ghost…uuuuggggh

Yeah that idea isn’t as horrible as it sounds.

like you said as long as he’s the same dude (wisecrackin’ romeo) I’ll take him as I can get him..

It would raise an interesting question: what kind of ghost will Venkman be? Will they have to catch him? And what about other friendly fiends they may have unjustly locked up?

As long as the focus is on the old boys, I’ll be satisfied. I’d rather not see a talentless 20-year-old stealing the scene from the greats just so somebody can siphon off another tv series.

okay…if this is true…I have to say I personally think it’s a great idea! I mean not only will it keep things interesting, it makes sense, feels conclusive to the original characters – seeing how they would/could eventually pass on, and is quite ironic!

In any case I’ve always been looking forward to Ghostbusters 3, simply because it’s Ghostbusters.

maybe the movie could start with them battling some unknown evil or the Blair Witch and they all get killed off in the first 20 minutes of the film. then, as ghosts they pass the torch and teach the young guns. (id rather see no passing of the torch and have them continue doing what they do best… just as old guys.)
