I was so surprised about this..... what do you think of this? 

Possible spoiler on his role:

However, a report earlier this year claimed Sony wanted the actor to appear in Feig’s reboot in a new role: a supernatural skeptic named Martin Heiss, who attempts to debunk the Ghostbusters’ work.

I think this is BS, for a number of reasons, but most of all because from what I remember, a true Ghostbusters 3 sequel never happened because Murray kept saying no to it.  And now he'll do a cameo for this reboot/respin, sure it's not a big part but w/e, smh!

I doubt that this is just hot air. Murray pretty much suggested on who he would like to see in an all female Ghostbusters movie. 

My expectations were low when they announced a reboot. They dropped lower when it was announced to be an all female cast (nothing against that per se, but it was in the wake of a lot of reboots trying a more feminine vibe.)

Having seen photos and interviews, I'm calling this a flop. It'll make enough money for them to think about a second round I think, but that won't last long.

meh, he was probably the character I disliked the most in the original films so I don't really care either way. 

Most people here thinks the film is going to be bad so that means its going to be a hit. I seen people here get hyped for movies on here that turn out bad too many times. :laugh:

You're saying that as if SNL is a stamp of quality and not a stamp of absolutely horrible "comedy"(and I use the word extremely liberally)...

Well.... Bill Murray and Dan Akroyd came from SNL and the original Ghostbusters was pretty darn funny....

But I get your overall point.

Should there be concern for director Paul Feig that people seem more excited over the cameos in "Ghostbusters" than his new cast? With Dan Akroуd, Bill Murraу, Ernie Hudson, and Annie Potts all confirmed to return, fans have been anxiouslу waiting to find out if Sigourneу Weaver would be joining them, and now we know that she will. Feig announced on Twitter (and had some sharp words which we'll get to in a minute) that Weaver had joined the cast of his "Ghostbusters" reboot, but don't expect her to be reprising her role of Dana Barrett. [ 121 more words. ]

I think what the fans think has been clear from day 1, most don't care about the reboot or whatever you want to call it, and hell, even Paul Feig knows, otherwise if he had so much confidence in his cast he wouldn't grab all the original cast to do cameos left and right, there just wouldn't be any need or reason to.   I don't buy the thing that it's out of respect for the originals and all that, very few reboots bother to do this type of thing, no, I think the studio knows it's got a uphill battle to try and win the fans over and that's the only reason this is happening.

    • UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models by Paul Hill The UK government has awarded £60 million to Oxford University and University College London to help keep the country in the AI race by focusing on open-source, low-hardware alternatives. This is in stark contrast to the expensive, closed-source, and high-hardware-requirement models being created in the United States and elsewhere. The money will be shared among two new academic research labs over six years to help them redesign the fundamental mathematics and architectures of AI to help the UK reduce its reliance on a handful of US tech firms. Commenting on the development, AI Minister Kanishka Narayan said: Initially, the government planned to fund just one lab with a £40 million investment, but with this update, two labs will now get access to a larger pool of funds. The labs are expected to invest in the top AI researchers at every career stage, with £2 million per lab being set aside for hiring at least ten doctoral students. The government hopes that this will grow the UK’s talent in the field of AI. The labs are also expected to work closely with the leaders in British AI research, such as the Alan Turing Institute and UKRI’s AI research hubs. This will allow the various teams to collaborate and create new solutions faster than they could alone. This development is pretty interesting for a number of reasons, chiefly that it could create a long-term challenge for US tech firms if these labs successfully scale these open-source architectures that bypass the proprietary ecosystems. It could also give British businesses and public sector organizations access to AI features without paying high licensing fees to foreign providers or needing to invest in specialized server infrastructure.
    • If I were them, I'm gonna hold out until the prices of these semiconductor parts normalize. $1,049 for a ~5 year old hardware is DoA, more so for gamers. On a deeper note, if Steam Machine is priced like this, we are soo effed up for the next gen Xbox console and PS6. With great AAA titles releasing at the end of the year, this just creates more demand...and more tears for me. Lol.
    • I suspect one reason its hard to justify subsidising is that it's not a locked down device like a traditional console is. In this climate sadly if it was a "good deal" you'd get people hoarding them for anything but gaming. The Lenovo Legion Go 2 with the Ryzen Z2 Extreme is £1300 here ($1720) for some context on how other SteamOS like devices are now priced. I got the older Z1 Extreme model for £300 with a dock, just shows how insane prices have got recently.
