Ghostbusters 3 - for real, this time?
 

http://www.aintitcool.com/node/31441

I don't care if its clay-mation, JUST GIMME THE ****ING MOVIE!!!


But really, CG sounds like a good idea. The original cast is WAY too over-the-hill; even as a die-hard Ghostbusters fan I can see that. Harold Ramis doesn't even look remotely like he used to. Ageless CG-renderings of the actors is honestly the only way we'll ever get Ghostbusters 3, and I'm all for it.

The announcement that Murray is onboard threw me through a loop. Looks like everyone finally wore him down.

As for the title, "Ghostbusters: Hellbent", I'm not so agreeable. I know Aykroyd has always invisioned the third film as "Hell on Earth", which is fine, but you don't need to put "Hell" in the title. This is a family franchise, after all. I'm no prude when it comes to language, but such a "hardcore" title isn't really necessary.

And why give it a fancy title, anyway? "Ghostbusters 3" is ALL the general audience needs to hear to get them into theaters.

well we've been getting stuff like this for years, i won't beleive it until its finalized.

I'd hate if it was cgi though, what i'd like is a "passing" the torch a la Xtreme Ghostbusters. that way they can have a younger crew.

Oh man...leg spazms.

CGI or no I don't care as long as Slimer is in it! If Slimer aint in it I aint gonna see it! Slimer rulz!!! :evilgrin:

DUDE!! That's an excellent reason for a new GB game being developed. But, not too hopeful since it's been put on hold. :( What really makes me happy is that Columbia/Tri-Star is probably waiting for this project to be delivered before offering us economy cartoon DVDs (as in 'season sets'). However, being that the franchise is being switched to a new medium (CGI), there are legal limitations that would prevent it from being titled Ghostbusters 3. It's sad ('stupid', really) but true. That's why Hellboy Animated can be a direct sequel, but won't be called Hellboy 2. And, as far as GB being a 'family franchise'... I'm holding my tongue on that topic. :D

lol he is only a few minutes in the first fillm and only a cameo on the second one. its not like he was important, only in the cartoon. he'd probably only have a small cameo on a new one.

Eww, CGI. I would have greatly preferred a 'Getting-back-in-the-saddle' sort of thing with the older (Retired?) Ghostbusters. But this is better than nothing I guess.

That game was put on hold, because Zootfly just used the license without actually having the rights, but Universal bought the rights from Sony Pictures, and Universal is going to put Vivendi Games on creating a different Ghostbusters game. Aykroyd mentioned it in one of the Sun newspapers, like Vancouver or something. He talked about having to do mo-cap for it next year.

Well, here's what they look like NOW:

Harold Ramis

Bill Murray

Dan Aykroyd

Ernie Hudson

Hudson and Aykroyd don't look so bad, but Ramis and Murray (particularly Ramis) are geezers.

..!#!@#@$#@$#@@!!!!**

..Please tell me ,Dr.S that Ernie is gonna reprise Winston .. you bet maybe??

God i hope.. please .. o gawd !! Winston is still my hero !!

>v<

Won't be surprised in Hudson is the last to know yet again. :roll: To be honest the first movie probably wouldn't have done so well if it wasn't for him playing it straight. We would have gotten some goofy junk like GB2 the first time around.

I would bet my soul on Ernie Hudson coming back as Winston. Its his iconic role.

I mean, no matter how many good movies he's in (and he's been in plenty), he will always, ALWAYS, be know as "the Fourth Ghostbuster".
And considering all the convention rounds he does and how he interacts with the fanbase so positively, I don't think he's ashamed of it.

I'm cool with them doing it in CGI, after hearing what Dan wants to do with the movie I cant really see it working in live action without them butchering it with the budjet they would probably end up with.

Either way I'm happy as long as we get a new movie :D

Bah, I rather have the Marshmellow Man than Slimer. That was an assume villian.

But...Stay-Puft blew up in the first movie...

And anyway, right now, I'd rather have ANY GB movie than none at all. So I'm happy about this.

And now, I'm going to celebrate by watching the first movie

true about the stay-puft but if you ever seen the cartoon, u remember the stay-puft marshmellow man made a return in many episodes inside the contaiment field thingy.

I'm not entirely sure if I like the idea of having an all-CGI sequel to a franchise that's been put to bed for nearly twenty years. Then again, it would be nice to hear that theme music in theatres for the first time. :)

...did I say 'assume' in place of 'awesome'? I must of been tired as hell to do that...

Screw him being dead, he was still assume! <--- Did that one on purpose.

I prefer the evil one from the movie, and from one of those cartoon's to that goody goody dumb ass with with the stupid voice.

Good Stay-Puff-Marshmellow Man in his goofy voice: SLIMMMMERRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!

God I'll never forget that, and I haven't seen the cartoons on the air since the early 90's -.-

oh come on, the original guys just fit the parts so well, it would be hard to find replacements, and i don't think it would do as good in sales

man, i had forgot how old some of them guys do look though, but still the fact remains, they will forever be the Ghost Busters to me when i see them:D

I still love Egon.





... and I always will.

You would... :roll:
Seriously though...
:D

Ray was my favorite! He was the one that created the State Puff Marshmellow Man!:D

Having it CGI doesn't sound too bad to me. All that matters is a script that holds up to the original films in both quality and character developement. That's all what matters to me.

And Ernie Hudson would definately come back. He even played a Ghostbuster on the Super Mario Super Show. Granted, they had to change the name to Slimebusters, but it doesn't matter.

As for Box sets.... don't count on it just yet. The only Ghostbusters Box set is that lousy Filmation Ghostbusters cartoon that mad DIC and Columbia change the title to "The Real Ghostbusters!"
