Original Cast On Board For Ghostbusters 3

bowman9991 writes "Dan Aykroyd reveals that all the original cast have now signed on for Ghostbusters 3, including Sigourney Weaver, Bill Murray, Harold Ramis and Ernie Hudson. Apparently Bill Murray, who holds a one-fifth controlling interest, was very reluctant at first, not even willing to read a third draft of Aykroyd's script. Aykroyd would like to see Ivan Reitman or Harold Ramis direct, wants to introduce a 'new generation' of Ghostbusters, and believes they could be filming the new Ghostbuster movie by winter."

    Either we have very different definitions of "crazy shit" or your seven year old does way too much booze and drugs for his age.

    Please, don't let the 'new generation of Ghostbusters' consist of a goth girl, a hispanic guy, a guy in a wheelchair, and black mechanic.

    Maybe the original cast could be the ghosts.

    Besides, Ghostbusters isn't really an action film. It's a comedy with some effects.

    Who the hell can replace Bill Murray and Dan Akroyd?

    Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker? Chris tucker distracts Cuthulu with a continuous rant on Cuthulu's personal hygene and Jackie stunt fights thru the reanimated denizens of the Netherworld in a proton accelerated tuxedo.

    I don't know, it ended with some kind of lightning battle with an interdimensional god and a giant Stay Puft marshmallow man on the New York skyline... what category does that normally go in?

    The phone rings and a desperate call, but the team is already engaged and Rick Moranis is left to answer the call. Attempting to prove himself worthy of being a Ghostbuster, he goes alone to encounter a demon who sends him back in time several years before the original Gozer encounter. Rick does get some action with Sigourney Weaver this time, but some other things go horribly wrong. But there is plenty of action and special effects, and by the end of the movie the team is formed albeit with some slight changes. Ghostbusters Headquarters looks like the Apple Store. Complete with Macbook Pros. And lens flare. Lots of lens flare.

    They're going to resurrect him in the sequel. After all, he's the most popular guy in the franchise.
