[Razorwing]

it's Stantz and Spengler.. -.-... lol.. anyway cool.

[Rappy Veteran]

I thought this was rather cool I found earlier :D

Quite ****ed there was no GB3 news at Comic-Con :(

They are still writing the story Rappeh. It hasn't even been green-lit by Columbia. Although I'd really want them to hurry up, but not to rush it. Hurry up because everyone's getting old. Seriously. lol.

Nice find on the Simpsons.. so what's it about?

Actually they green-lit the film September 4, 2008. They wouldn't have hired writers if it wasn't green-lit.

oh I guess the script isn't approved yet lol. As far as I know they aren't in Post yet.

There's was an interview with Harold Ramis recently and he made it sound like they were still working on ideas, but I've heard they are suppose to start filming in Sept, but who knows where they are with the project. But the project has been greenlit though.

Once Columbia hired writers to start writing the film, it was greenlit, that is if it wasn't already greenlit. This project has been worked on off and on since the late '80s, early '90s.

If it's as well written as the game was, I can't wait. LOVE the GB franchise!!

Reitman 'on board' for new 'Ghostbusters'

Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters 2 director Ivan Reitman has agreed to work on the third movie in the franchise, reports suggest.

According to horror fansite Bloody Disgusting, Reitman has not yet decided whether he will direct the project but has indicated that he will be on board to produce.

It is thought that the forthcoming sequel will see the team of paranormal experts resurrecting their ghost-capturing business after it has been closed for years.

Meanwhile, there are also rumours that the film's writing duo Gene Stupnitsky and Lee Eisenberg have now turned in a script.

The original Ghostbusters movie was released in 1984, while the second followed five years later. News of the latest instalment first emerged in July 2008.

nice. I really can't wait till they either start filming or even come to the BIG screen :).

Dan Aykroyd On Ghostbusters 3

There are many long awaited film sequels in the works and Ghostbusters 3 in one of them. We?ve heard updates from various actors, producers, and even the director of the previous movies in regards to the status of the film. Co-star Dan Aykroyd recently spoke about the new movie Wednesday night on the radio show Coast to Coast AM with George Noory, and he gave listeners an earful.

Aykroyd told the host and the audience that Sony is very excited about the film, and screenwriters Gene Stupnitsky and Lee Eisenberg are currently ?hacking out a first draft.? For the most part, Ghostbusters 3 has been a dream project for fans everywhere. They want a reunion and it seemed like a far fetched idea for a very long time. Even Akyroyd admitted that the third movie is a lot closer to reality than he could have imagined.

The actor didn?t go on to clarify any other details regarding the film from that point on, but it does leave a little hope. Other rumors that have been circling the film have to do with the reluctance of certain actors returning. For the most part, Bill Murray has been pointed out as the original ?buster? who doesn?t want to put on his overalls. Not to be mean, but he doesn?t want to commit to anything because a script hasn?t been nailed down yet. The last time I checked, that wasn?t reluctance, that was common sense.

Once an official draft as been submitted for revision to the studio, then we can start hounding the cast and the director. Until then, everything is just talk.

hope they get the ball rolling soon.

[Rappy Veteran]

fanart ftw

[Orange]

Thats pretty good fanart to be honest :D

[Coldgunner]

only thing it needs is the three fingers up, doesn't look quite done without it.

Sigourney Weaver leaks some plot details?

?I?m afraid to say it [Ghostbusters 3] is happening, I hope people are excited about that. I don?t know if I?m going to be in it, I have had a couple of calls asking ?would you read the script?.

?I know that my little son Oscar ? who was kidnapped from me ? I think he has grown up to be a ghostbuster.

?I might be in it; I see nothing wrong with being in it, although I don?t think I will have a big part. I think Bill Murray has a little more to do with it ? he?s a ghost.?

[Razorwing]

so if I'm right, they are sticking with the original plan with #3. Venkman is a Ghost, entire new cast of GBs which will be lead by Stantz, Spengler and Zeddemore. Elisha Dushku and or Alyssa Milano joins the new cast of GBs?? Possible love interest of Oscar? Dana Barrett probably has a cameo somewhere in the film. She said a small part..so maybe a Guidance figure for Oscar for character development? maybe.. lol

really good news so far (Y)

[Rappy Veteran]

Late last week Sigourney Weaver let slip some pretty huge news that Bull Murray may return as a ghost in the long-gestured Ghostbusters 3. During a recent junket for Avatar in London, Weaver was confronted about her earlier statement, which clears up a few things. So will Murray be a ghost? "I don't know," she told MTV. "He could come back as a sort of Slimer character." She continues, "I haven't read the script...I guess my little son Oscar who was kidnapped is a Ghostbuster, which makes me very proud." You can watch the full interview here.

Venkman coming back as a ghost sounds dumb imo.

Harold Ramis Promises Ghostbusters 3 For 2011

The statements come from Heeb, which spoke to the director about many of his films, and got a couple neat statements about Groundhog Day. (Check the source for those.) Of Ghostbusters 3, he says:

Something?s going to happen. Dan [Aykroyd] did write a spec GB3 screenplay a few years ago, but no one was motivated to pursue it. Now, 25 years after the original, there seems to be some willingness to proceed and apparently a substantial public appetite for a sequel. We?ll introduce some new young Ghostbusters, and all the old guys will be in it, too. Think Christopher Lloyd in Back to the Future ? GB3 is progressing with plans to shoot next summer and release in 2011.

[Razorwing]

that is the best quote ever. Includes both bttf and gb :D

as long as they don't make ANY of the old cast a GHOST it'll be good. They made two brilliant movies already, why ruin the 3rd one.

let's hope Sigourney was wrong then :p
