Which lessens the odds that we'll see adult Oscar.

Arguably he still can be in the movie, but say that his mother moved away or somesuch.

[Andrew NDB]

Yeah. I have a sinking feeling Oscar might be Patton Oswalt.

Semi-confirmation that Bill Murray is in it. Also, Annie Potts:

So much for his lack of desire to be part of the franchise.
Maybe it is a guilt for not joining project, when Ramis was still alive?

Something like that, maybe. Afterlife seems to have pushed him over that roadblock.

And here, he confirms it:

I hope it’s not moved to next year. I understand editing and stuff takes time but I’m just anxious for it.

There’s leaked images that reveal concept art for the new threat and things like equipment I think. I have not seen them...I don’t want to either. I wish they’d at least reveal the plot though.

Very minor spoiler:

Spoiler:

From the leaks people mentioned the Mini Pufts might return. Not sure it’s even a spoiler. They’ve been shown off with the logo. I hope they do return but I’d also like a new cute character(s) to go along with them.

Right? There's not even really anything out there for us to speculate on. Presumably Winston reopens the New York Ghostbusters HQ and... what?

You know I'm okay with that lol. I really enjoyed the last one, I want to see how Winston trains new busters! Winston always gets trashed because he was the last to the team, he wasn't in to science. He was just taking a job, and was exposed to all this crazy ghost shite! I can see some good stuff coming from this.

Whatever Winston is up to, it's probably going to be seen through the eyes of main little girl and Stranger Things guy from last one.

That's fine, there're both really good actors. And I know Paul rudd has been pulled back in, and I feel like his character represents all the og Ghostbusters fans. He's constantly gushing over Winston and W telling him it's not all fun and games. Sounds good to me

Exactly. It’s fun to speculate and there’s nothing to go on. The logo is covered in ice and I guess the containment unit is some factor.

I hope we see Phoebe and Podcast visit Ray’s Occult.

I had an idea I thought would be cool. Ray keeps a jar of the mood slime in his bookstore as a novelty item with a “Not for Sale” sign. If he gets any angry customers it starts to bubble.

Yeah, it's fine. My only hopes in this one is, #1 that it's GOOD, and #2, it has a little Ghostbusters 2 love in it. And we see some full-form Ghostbusters Ghostbusting. And we get Oscar, maybe.

I'm definitely hoping we get more busting! That's why I think they're going back to NYC for, I think we'll get some more containment chamber breaks. We don't know how many ghosts were busted off screen.

I really hope it's not as simple as that. But it might be. The Afterlife teaser at the end kind of suggested there's still ghosts in there. I wonder if a twist will be that Walter Peck is a super pro-Ghostbusters advocate in this, helping them out.

Considering the last movie incorporated aspects of the original Ghostbusters, why not have something to incorporate GB2? Vigo comes back some how

How about no, please? Afterlife was dickriding nostalgia, which was kind of a late realization of hopes for the Ghostbusters 3 with OG crew and a failure of Fembusters, but I feel like at this point they can move into a "new direction", which means new team hunts ghosts, while being overseen by OG Busters. Their presence in the movie should be enough fanservice as it is.

Basically something like Extreme Ghostbusters, but without 90s EXTREME gunk.

[Andrew NDB]

Uh oh... Ernie Hudson is saying the direction of the new movie is not what he'd have gone with.
