Hot on the heels of the implied-- likely-- no, predestined success of the videogame... And, Sony won't be producing the sets either. :o

God, they'd better be season sets.

My VHS tapes are virtually dust.

Heh, you have more faith in the video game than I do. I haven't seen much about it to tell one way or the other.

Me neither. :/ Just trying to keep things positive...

People in the press who have seen the game say it's fairly impressive, especially the physics engine.

A lot is riding on the videogame. We're pretty much going to get that instead of Ghostbusters not quite 3: hell on Earth. The actors can't seem to agree on how they want to do the movie, so it looks like it's in developement purgatory. And it may not happen at all.

Anyway, this is bloody great news. Ghostbusters was one of the major 1980's cartoon shows, right up there with He-Man, Transformers, and Ducktales. It would have been a shame to see the same sinister copyright forces that are keeping new Transformers and GI Joe sets down keeping this as three lousy 4 episode disks.

Sony won't be releasing it? Hmm. I thought they weren't going to sublicense it because they weren't going to profit off of them. But not releasing them themselves due to the fact it's a kid's show. Ah, that wacky Sony pictures.

I'm gonna guess Shout would be the first one to call, since they've been doing the 1980's cartoon releases for a while, and they are owned by Sony.

I really hope this is true because I really want a chance to own the Ghostbusters. Especially the first two seasons where Lorenzo Music voiced Peter Venkmen, i never took to the other guy. The first two eason where just awsome.

The other guy- you mean Dave Coulier, who sounded a lot closer to Bill Murray, ironically.

Though we can get into the whole bugaboo about how Bill Murray voiced the movie Garfield... things coming full circle in an extremely odd way.

but anything to not have to track down those lame No special features, cheap generic menu, "we don't give a crap at all, maybe preschoolers who don't know about the movie will care" 4 episodes each releases.

Something that bugs me... how is a fourth episode a "bonus?" It stopped being a bonus episode when VHS's became obsolete.

I've got my fingers crossed so hard I already snapped them off at the first knuckle.

I've been ignoring the available DVDs with hopes that this would happen. I'll give it till like August, :lol:, and if it there isn't at least an official date, I'm definitely going to grab the ones that are already out. A man needs his Ghostbusters fix.
