Honestly this may or may not happen, Ghostbusters 3 has had directors and screen writers in the past.  Lee Eisenberg & Gene Stupnitsky were set up back in 2008 and nothing happened, back in 2012 it was Etan Cohen & Ivan Reitman and obviously Dan has had several scripts himself.  We will see where this goes.

I'm a big fan and think this version should not happen. I've got nothing against movies with all female casts but not for this movie. I don't think it will work, it's not something I even feel I should go see and I'm a big fan like I said.

If you can't give us a real sequel that adds to the franchise then forget it, enough with the cheap reboots, it's just a money grab.

I am also fine with a female cast (as long as McCarthy isn't in it. I want her to stay away far as possible from this franchise.) I am not fine however when they totally decide to pretty much ignore the two movies ever happened. All the characters of the GB universe do no exist. Feig is wiping the slate clean. As Mr. Ernie Hudson says " Why bother calling it Ghostbusters then? " I wholeheartly agree with him. I also don't like the fact they are completely ignoring Dan's script and making their own script. It's also the script the late Harold Ramis also worked on. That's just disrespectful in my opinion. Not cool. Do they know anything about the Paranormal? I mean Dan is a massive fan of the unknown, he believes in Ghosts and stuff. Half if not all terms came from him or from his research on the project. I.e Class 5 FRV (Full Roam Vapor), EMF scrubbers, PKE.. etc etc etc whether it's real or if he made it up.. I don't know, but hey it sounded cool. I mean hell, he could name most if not all the stuff on the Roof Rack on the Ecto-1. Anyway, I"m ranting just a bit.. so yeah.

I'm with you, I hope this never makes it past the script stage and they can find someone else who can respect the past 2 movies and do a good sequel not a silly reboot that takes advantage of the well known name to make it some silly all female comedy, we don't need bridesmaids with proton packs guys, just stop.

yep, it's sounds crap, it's a guy movie, sorry is that sounds sexist. If this gets made it'll be stupid, i imagine revealing costumes and bad jokes....

Speaking of new equipment and stuff I'd rather they have the old Proton Packs but upgraded a bit. Think the game's version put more compact to fit the pack's original design. It's pretty much perfected. I think that would be cool. Flight suits should stay the same IMO. Either Tan/Khaki or the Blue/Grey versions. Or maybe the new one is black. Although this probably won't happen. We will probably see them in formal dress wear as their uniform probably. Just because Feig is wiping the slate clean.

Ghostbusters Reboot To Be Set In New York
 

Director Paul Feig tells Empire Magazine, emphatically, that the new Ghostbusters reboot will be set in New York City, as the original films were. In fact, he says he

 

I don't care where it's going to be filmed.. as long as McCarthy is gone. If she's on board.. she better be a animated free roaming vapor.

Doubt that's going to happen shes a big actress now

She's big alright...but super annoying to even listen to.

 

I agree with the others.. if McCarthy is in it I will NOT go to theaters to see it and highly sure I won't even catch it till its on HBO or something so I can fast forward thru anything she is involved in.

 

We need a #NOMcCarthyGhost hash tag or something to get going to show that people do NOT want her in the movie!

    • NVIDIA announces 35 new AI HPC supercomputers across Europe by Fiza Ali NVIDIA has announced that 35 AI high-performance computing (HPC) supercomputers are planned to open throughout Europe this year. This marks what the company describes as the largest single-year expansion of AI infrastructure in the history of the continent. These new systems, unveiled at ISC High Performance 2026, will be placed at a number of national supercomputing centres, AI factories, and research institutes to provide advanced computing resources to more than three million researchers. Describing AI, NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang stated, "AI is the new instrument of science, and Europe is building the infrastructure to put it in the hands of millions of researchers." Built on NVIDIA's Blackwell and Hopper architectures, the new systems will support research in climate science, healthcare, clean energy, quantum computing, and other scientific fields. Among the major projects are the Barcelona Supercomputing Center's MareNostrum 5 AI upgrade, BavariaAI's Blue Swan platform in Germany, Italy's IT4LIA AI factory, Germany's HammerHAI project, and Sweden's Mimer AI Factory. The Barcelona Supercomputing Center plans to expand MareNostrum 5 with NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 and GB200 NVL4 systems. In total, the BSC expects to deliver up to 20 exaflops of AI training performance and 33 exaflops of AI inference performance. This increased computational capability will support research efforts related to climate modelling, biotechnology, energy systems, etc. Furthermore, as part of the IT4LIA project, more than 8,000 GPUs, each based on NVIDIA’s GB200 NVL4 architecture, will be used in Italy. This represents one of the largest AI factory initiatives announced to date. Additionally, the Blue Swan platform from BavariaAI will include about 1,000 GPUs to help develop multimodal AI models for use in the medical field, robotics, and various areas of scientific research. NVIDIA also emphasized in the announcement how rapidly growth of accelerated computing usage is taking place within both energy and climate-related research. The company said Siemens Energy uses NVIDIA-powered technologies to significantly accelerate the process of designing and simulating hydrogen-capable gas turbines. Using those same acceleration technologies, Siemens was able to reduce simulation time by up to 77 percent. The company also highlighted several quantum computing initiatives across Europe. CINECA, EuroHPC, and Pasqal are integrating a quantum processing unit into Italy's CINECA supercomputing centre using NVIDIA's CUDA-Q platform. Meanwhile, researchers at Germany's Julich Supercomputing Centre recently simulated a universal 50-qubit quantum computer on the JUPITER supercomputer. The announcement demonstrates Europe's continued commitment to building out its infrastructure supporting AI and supercomputing as governments, research organizations, and technology companies compete to build out their respective computing capacities and secure their positions in advanced scientific research.
    • It's about to become harder to turn off your Samsung TV, thanks to Instagram by Aditya Tiwari Meta announced that its Instagram for TV app has arrived on Samsung TVs in the US as part of its latest expansion, giving users one more way to scroll through Reels. The social media giant often comes under scrutiny for the "addictiveness" of its features, which leads people to spend excessive time on the platform. Interestingly, Instagram boss Adam Mosseri described spending 16 hours on the platform as "problematic use" but not "clinical addiction." Mosseri also compared scrolling on Instagram to binge-watching a show on Netflix. Instagram for TV is now available on Samsung TV models released in 2020 or later. The app is already available on Amazon Fire TV and Google TV in the US, which together account for the majority of connected TV devices. The company said it will test several new features to improve the living room and family experience while using Instagram on the big screen. Watching vertical videos on a big screen isn't something many would be excited about. Probably that's why Meta is testing a dedicated home for horizontal videos. Creators will get the opportunity to design content for TV screens and get more ways to reach audiences, according to Meta. If you found an interesting Reel while doomscrolling on your phone, you'll be able to cast it to your TV. The feature is available for testing on Instagram for TV on Google TV and Amazon Fire TV, and it will also support videos from the Saved tab. Instagram for TV will be testing Channels organized around user interests, across genres such as comedy and sports, as well as content from favorite creators. Moreover, you can watch Stories on your TV. While Instagram is known for short-form videos, it's knocking on more doors to keep the audience hooked. The company said it's exploring new content formats for the big screen, including long-form creator content to cover topics in detail, episodic series to build suspense across multiple episodes, and creator live sessions on TV. All of the new updates put Instagram in competition with established giants like YouTube (and Netflix), which already have a robust presence on the big screen. In recent updates, Instagram added the ability to write an individual caption for each carousel image, manually re-order posts, and a paid version of the app.
    • I know RAM and storage prices are high right now, but I think it would have been better to have 1TB as the base level storage, especially as it's supposed to be for gaming. Plus a 2.5gbe ethernet port rather than only 1gbe.
