An all Male Ghosbusters movie is also in the works at Sony
 

The all Female Ghostbusters reboot isn't the only movie Sony is doing, They are also planning an all male Ghostbusters film to compliment it.

In fact Sony has created a separate studio to handle the Ghostbusters franchise and branding, This new studio is called, Ghostcorps, The studio will be runned by Ivan Reitman and Dan Aykroyd.

This is an interesting development. Could it be the daughters of the four Ghostbuster members reforming their father's business while this is a reboot? This one has me interested and its nice to see Dan involved.

Anyone wanna bet their only doing this in response to some of the outrage because of the female Ghostbusters movie?

This better be based on the Filmation series!
None of you get that.:roll:

Plus the Russo Brothers will direct the all male Ghostbusters movie, They previously directed Captain America: The Winter Soldier and I believe are going to direct Civil War next.

This is so weird.

I know right? It sounds like an April Fools joke, But its legit, If this is what it takes to make new Ghosbusters movies, I'm all for it.

You're on the Internet. Everyone gets that.

Also, this sounds like Sony doing what Sony does and preparing to double down on something so hard they run it straight into the ground. If there's one thing Sony knows how to do it's mishandle and then bury viable IP.

What the...?

The all-female Ghostbusters movie was in development hell for HOW LONG? And now suddenly they're planning another Ghostbusters?

?!?!?!?

All male Ghostbusters because its never been done! :roll:

You know what I'd rather see? Since they already did it in comic... do a Turtles/Ghostbusters crossover film. :D

Could we just cut the bull and have a team of Ghostbusters that's blended?

Dan Akroyd has always been a favorite of mine, but God damn, he needs to sit down & give it a rest.

Yes! With a gorilla!

Where's my transgender Ghostbusters film? Where's my all Korean Ghostbusters film? I'm sick and tired of there being no Ghostbusters film about quadriplegics.

Mini Ghostbusters. All small person cast. Get Sony on the horn. I'm pitching it as Willow with ghosts.

This sounds like a trainwreck waiting to happen. I can now see people purposely skipping the one with the all-female cast and watching this one instead, so now Sony will lose a tremendous amount of box office sales on the all-female movie.

Over saturation is never a good thing. Oh well, its Sony.

It gets worse! :lol:

Yep. :roll:

Please don't remind me of that dreadful movie. :P

Ugh. What a pandering gimmick of a movie idea.

Confusing. Sounds like a whole lott'a bunch'a crap, and I'll be surprised if it actually happens.

Why don't they make one Ghostbusters movie that might actually be a little bit good?

Both of them are probably doomed to suck, though I'm a little more confident in the newly announced one since the Russo bros. are involved. But geez... Sony really is desperate at this point, aren't they?

Can't say I disagree. It seems silly to basically say, "Hey rabid fanboys who are so bent out of shape about the Girl Ghostbusters, don't worry, we're totally gonna do an all dude one, because I mean...it's how it's SUPPOSED to be."

Just do one movie with a 4 person squad with a Hard core scientist, a true believer, a snarky jerk, and the normal person. Cast the BEST whoever for the role.

Yep, classic Sony.

Can't wait for ASM3, ASM4, Sinister Six, Venom, Female Spidey character spinoff and the Aunt May spinoff.

Well, y'all can do all the complaining you want to. I'll just be over here reading the amazing Ghostbusters IDW comics

I like how IDW evolved the team, like having Kylie being hired to take over Ray's store.

That's a logical way to introduce a good female character in another live action GB movie.

ASM3&4 are cancelled, remember? :P

They better have a Hispanic in there or no deal.

Two movies with the same f*cking character types? AND PRODUCED BY SONY?! CANT F*CKING WAIT

Ghostbusters Day Out.

If only someone would think of the straight, white, male demographic. Why don't we ever see anything that caters to them?! They're so...marginalized and oppressed.

We can't expect straight white male children to see people other than themselves on screen, there'll be confusion.
Real wrath of God stuff. Cats and dogs living together, MASS HYSTERIA!

(tell him about the twinkie, Ray.)

Wow, this is awesome but also strange. I mean is it a sequel to the first 2? Will it be in continuity with the all female one or it's own thing?

Also anyone who thinks they're only doing this because of all the hate for the reboot is wrong. There was talk about Dan wanting to do a Ghostbusters Universe before the reboot was official. There was an article about it and interview with him last year. Wonder if I could find it again.

Anyway I'm really happy this franchise is finally growing after all the struggling, and with 2 movies currently in the works. I hope it's not a joke.

Edit: Just looked back on imdb for the article but couldn't find but found a post from January that claims this exact news and it was found in the Sony hack. So most likely not a joke. Only had 2 replies. Obviously nobody believed that person at the time. Who would? Most of that board has been sarcastic hate for the reboot.

IDK. Still sounds fishy to me....

Found it - http://www.slashfilm.com/dan-aykroyd...e-like-marvel/

I don't think it's fishy at all. Dan has been the most dedicated to continuing the franchise all these years.

That's a big Twinkie.

What a stupid idea. I bet they are gonna make the all-women buster team non-canon and the all-guy team as a apart of the canon for the previous movies, that would be a huge ******** move.

Did you even read up on it? It's meant to become a universe. The female team and this would co-exist and probably crossover.

This is what I've always wanted...an expansion, multiple branches of the business. I hope it not all set in NY. Different locations opens things up.

This even opens up the possibility that the original team still exists. As long as the reboot doesn't use the same plot or storyline.

After thinking about it this (male version) can not be a totally new start. It just wouldn't work. Having 2 separate teams that have their own storylines must be the way they go. I mean it can't be all new yet still acknowledge another team (the girls) with the same name.

There's a long road between saying soemthing and doing it. So pardon me that I'm not all that enthusiastic about the possibility that the female-cast movie might be thrown under the bus.

Well I guess I can see what you're saying. I'm all for the female ghostbusters. I don't want it to be brushed off.

I don't think it would though. There's been talk of a universe recently plus it gives them another reason to make more movies which makes them more money.

Just when you think the reboot can get any more stupid then it already was a him and her version happens. Oh well at least its got some talent on it and a better vision for it then Ghostbusters but without the penis. Well Channing Tatum that's not a good name to be thrown into the mix but I can deal. This one seems like the lesser of two evils so I can at least take this.

Like both of these upcoming films
It's all fluff and filler

I'll kick your heiny man
I'm a savage killer

Pets next.

Ghost Buddies.

If I were running Sony Pictures right now, I'd bring back the original cast, i.e. big fat Aykroyd, Erny Hudson, and replace long time hold-out Bill Murray with his 69 year-old brother Brian Doyle-Murray as Peter Venkman. Then, using the same CGI wizardry that brought dinosaurs to life in Jurassic Park; resurrect Harold Ramis, and hold a nation wide competition in the form of a reality TV show to cast a voice actor who can do a serviceable impression.

Channing Tatum could do the motion capture for the CGI Egon if he wanted, but otherwise he's out.

Next step, call... no, text Paul Feig and tell him we're moving him off campus. His dumb idea about women doing things in a movie has no place in this department, or this... movie studio.

The people have chosen the form of the destructor, and Many Shuvs and Zuuls... well you get the point.

Sony!
