#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 From a script or story POV Ghostbusters really isnt that remarkable. It's the cast that does it. crumbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What did this achieve except spoil a fun surprise?Is it just a desperate attempt to appease those unhappy about not getting a true Ghostbusters 3?

Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 It's a half-decent remake of the first one, but it's a fun watch.Nowhere near as good as the original, though, which is one of the all-time greatest comedies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I didn't quote the article.He never wanted to do a third apparentlyWell, now we know why Bill Murray was so anti-Ghostbusters. It's a shame that reconciliation came too late for the olriginal four to reunite one last time.They all came back for the 2009 videogame adaptation, which is at its core GB 3, only not as good as the previous 2. Still it was worth it to hear them having fun again with their characters.As for this reboot, it can go get sucked into a proton pack.I'll quote these both because they are relevant to my point. Owing to Groundhog Day, Bill Murray and Harold Ramis had a massive falling out and didn't speak for years. Bill's claim for not wanting to do any more Ghostbusters was weak - he did the video game after all. But think of it this way: all the actors would have had to record their dialogue separately. Bill Murray would never need to have seen Harold Ramis. So I think that's why Bill Murray didn't want to do Ghostbusters 3: because it meant being in the presence of somebody he hated at the time.Of course, they reconciled before Ramis' death.As for Bill Murray's character NOT being Venkman, WTF?! That'll piss off a lot of Ghostbusters fans. What are they thinking?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because all I see are the same characters 5 years later (some having moved on) getting into completely different situations.I agree that the first is the best, but the sequel isn't too far behind. With such likeable characters it's impossible to hate it right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
