Murr Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 We already knew that the long-gestating Ghostbusters 3 was going to revolve around a younger set of GBs, with the original gang serving more as mentors this time around, but a report online claims that the filmmakers will be keeping the new protagonist in the family so to speak. If true the following rumor is a big spoiler. Proceed at your own peril! According to Bloody-Disgusting, an insider claims "Dana's [sigourney Weaver] son Oscar is in fact Peter's [bill Murray] child as well. Furthermore, Oscar is now 21-ish and ready to take the reigns of his father's ghost busting business!" The site didn't know just how far along the perpetually in-development GB3 is, but "word has it things are actually progressing nicely (contrary to what Murray is saying)." Source - IGN.com no....no no no no no.... this sounds worse than the idea of having Bill Murray killed off early in GB3 and playing a ghost in the fim.. not liking this idea.
Chainclaw Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 (edited) Oscar wasn't Peter's kid, this smells like BS to me! How hard can it be to come up with an interesting and fun idea for another Ghostbusters movie?? Even the second one, which was a good film but not a patch on the original, retread too much of the same ground as the first and suffered as a result. Yet the cartoon The Real Ghostbusters churned out quality stories and comedy how many dozens and dozens of times over?! Edited September 1, 2010 by Chainclaw
Guy Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Leave it alone, Hollywood. The second Ghostbusters was dire. A third will utterly disgrace the flawless original. Leave it be, guys. You gotta leave it be.
Retro_Link Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Son of the Mask, Ace Ventura Jr. Pet Detective, OK these Ghostbusters will be older, but films which come out FAR too late starring the family of the originals... suck! Because everyone loves the originals too much!
Daft Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 The less Bill Murray, the better. Maybe they can release a special edition of the first two films where they replace him with an annoying CGI'd amphibious rabbit.

martinist Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 NO!! don't fuck with the ghostbusters franchise >__< 1 &2 is enough!
ReZourceman Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 WTF. GB2 was AMAZING, I do not understand the hating. And this sounds amazing too. FFS. Seriously, fuck all of yous.
Chainclaw Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 WTF. GB2 was AMAZING, I do not understand the hating. And this sounds amazing too. FFS. Seriously, fuck all of yous. Don't get me wrong, it's a funny film, 3 out of 5 stars, but it copied too many ideas from the original, as if they'd used up all their ideas already. But despite that it was still good and I still enjoyed it and own it now on DVD. The toaster scene is a classic, and Venkman's laundry rule is something men have lived by ever since!
Tellyn Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 At least they've abandoned the idea of having Seth Rogen/Ben Stiller/god knows who else take over as the new generation of Ghostbusters...
Jimbob Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 As long as the movie doesn't suck, i think it could work.
