| Ghostbusters 3 Just when you thought things couldnt sink any lower in Hollywood... Quote:
According to our source all four Ghostbusters -- Dan Akroyd, Bill Murray, Harold Ramis and Ernie Hudson -- have agreed to return to the franchise. A few years ago that would have been downright unbelievable, but considering they all just got back into their roles for the Ghostbusters videogame, it’s more than plausible that they’d do it on-camera one more time.
Now here’s the really interesting part; though not much is known about the plot, apparently the ‘Busters will be handing over their proton packs to Seth Rogan and the crew from 40 Year Old Virgin! Some may roll their eyes at this, but think about it; these guys are doing the same thing Murray, Ramis, Ivan Reitman, John Candy and their whole crew did back in the 80’s, churning out comedy after comedy, so it makes sense they’d take over these reins as well.
Of course all of it hinges on a budget, classic Hollywood story, but hopefully there’s a studio out there smart enough to know that the fans want at least one more Ghostbusters movie (hell, if done right, possibly a new franchise) and make this sucker happen.

| Re: Ghostbusters Remake/Part 4? So it's basically the same idea as years ago except with Apatow and co instead of the Ben Stiller frat pack?

| Ghostbusters 3 in the Works From Newsarama.com
After what seems to be years (okay, decades) of rumors and stories, a third Ghostbusters film is in the works, this according to The Hollywood Reporter.
As the trade reports, the film will be something that’s become popular with other franchises such as Batman, James Bond, and most recently Superman – that is, a reboot. Gene Stupnitsky and Lee Eisenberg, writer/producers of NBC’s The Office have signed on to write the film for Sony. Link |

How come no one pulled Al up for saying it was part 4 instead of 3? Even me? Shameful.
I haven't seen the US version of 'The Office' so I dunno if this is a better or worse prospect than Apatow and co.

| Re: Ghostbusters 3 in the Works Is it still going to be 100% CGI? Highly dubious about that.

| Re: Ghostbusters 3 in the Works i had some guy come in last week absolutely adamant that there was a ghostbusters 3 already and that it was on dvd. he wouldn't listen to 3 of us that 1) there was no such thing. ever. and 2) even typing it on the system wouldn't make it reality. he thought we were lying to him about it not being on the computer.
