Yep, classic Sony.

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

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.

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.
They better have a Hispanic in there or no deal.

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


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!

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.

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.

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!
