:cry: i can tolerate the new transformers film....but GIJOE live action film wont even have cobra commander or cobra at all!, but this takes the major stab in the ass for an 80's fan.... http://www.darkhorizons.com/news06/061130c.php they canceld the live action HE-MAN movie.... :sweatdro: i tell ya...being a 80's fan sucks....oh well....least TMNT is getting the treatment better then the rest of them.... i look forward to the tmnt cgi film. :D

oddly enough yes TMNT is finally getting proper treatment.

GI Joe, as if it wasn't enough of an insult to have a foreign company doing GI Joe now a ****** movie.

Well, I know what sucks is that Ghostbusters fans have been waiting for a Ghostbusters 3 movie for a very... very long time, and there is probably no hopes of one being made.

SEVENTEEN YEEEEAAAAARRRRSSS!!!!

But yeah, all hope for a Ghostbusters 3 died about 7 or 8 years ago, so I've gotten over it. I'd be fine with a remake, honestly. Ghostbusters fans are so neglected in the 80's resurgence department, I'll take just about anything.

And a shame about He-Man. I'd have liked to have seen a *good* live action He-Man film. Not that I hate the Dolph Lundgren version; it's good for camp-value.

What about that comic series that came out 2 years ago?

It's painful, isn't it? I actually know a lady who worked with Dan Akroyd on a couple made for TV movies for CBC here in Canada, I'd say about...oh Jesus...like 5 years ago? Anyways, I was on the set of one of them, some airplane movie, and I was all like "Dan...Ghostbusters 3? Make it happen!". He laughed and told me he'd love it, but to not get my hopes up.

That pretty much crushed me. I agree, though. I would love to see a remake. As much as I know it will never match the original movie, a movie that dominated my younger years, I'd still like to see it.

I love the Dolph Lungren He-Man movie, ironiclly one of the best movies based on a 1980's toy franchise was made in the 1980's.

It lasted 4 issues, each issue being delayed 4 months, then got cancelled because Diamond refused to ship anymore books from the completely unreliable and shadey 88MPH Studios. Sebastian, the owner of 88MPH, then took preorders for the Ghostbusters Legion hardcover, never produced the thing and ran away with the cash. There are also hordes of Transformers fans who order 88MPH's Transformers Genesis art book and never received the thing or a refund.

The Ghostbusters: Legion debacle is a stain on the franchise, if anything. The book was good, if too shortlived, but the experience was extremely ugly.

I wrote an article about it!

Then there was the NECA toyline that never made it past wave 1 because they could get Bill Murray to agree to let them use his likeness on an action figure.


Part of the reason we see very little Ghostbusters anything is because the rights are so mucked up in red tape it's next to impossible for merchandise to get produced, and the license itself is murderously expensive, few companies are willing to chance it.

It's tough being a Ghostbusters fan.:(

its sad that many of the popular comic book and tv shows are geting cancelled. well at least we have several other good ones.

I really wanted a new ghostbuster movie.
