Ghostbusters 3, hmmmm..

Looks like they may be about to do an all female Ghostbusters, not sure about this, part of the charm of the original was the geeky bloke thing, not sure if it will suit women, not being sexist and keeping an open mind but I cant get my head round it.

Hoping there is at least Cameos from Dan Akroyd and Ernie Hudson, and would be fantastic if Bill Murray put an appearance in seeing it has gone in a different direction to the one he was dead set against.

Just hope it isnt Bridesmaids with Ghosts.

Melissa McCarthy can do funny so that may work, dont know the others.

I just cant get to how the entire crew has gone female in the intervening years, needs to be a good premise, all the other cast need including, the fans of the original need to be appeased, I think if it were a franchise operation, that could work.

Wonder what car they will have, will Rick Moranis, Sigourney Weaver etc have a part to play, will Bill Murray get involved now ?

Will the writing be as good, will the writers get the original and pay it the respect it deserves ?

Such a shame Harold Ramis died, he was up for it.

You clearly aren't aware Rick Moranis retired from acting nearly 20 years ago to concentrate on his family after his wife died.

You clearly arent aware he is prepared to come out of retirement for GB 3 !

Yeah I read that last year but that was before the rumours of an all female cast and this reboot having no connection to the originals

That would be a shame, this would be more like "The Real Ghostbusters" than a sequel then.

Agree, like you say it doesn't affect what has already been made, it is more of worrying it will be a missed opportunity when we all wanted the same team back for another outing.

Would have loved to see a film where it was transitioned to a new generation so there was continuity.

Not sure if anything can capture the magic of the original, GB 2 didn't really but it had the original cast so it was enough.

I would agree that women arent as funny as an average as men, but some are, Melissa MCarthy comes across quite well. I think if they dress them right and set up the characters right then maybe women could do geek quite well.

Ghostbusters has been remade before by Ivan Reitman with a different cast, anyone remember Evolution ? so many similarities it is untrue.
