UPDATE! Did Sigourney Weaver Let Slip A Whopping GHOSTBUSTERS 3 Spoiler??
SPOILER ALERT !!
Merrick again...
The intervidew mentioned below is HERE. Thanks, Jester!
Merrick again, again...
Here's an embed:
Merrick here...
Tall Guy sent in this tidbit about the currently-in-development GHOSTBUSTERS film. His message speaks for itself, but beware a potential SPOILER here:
longtime reader here in the UK.
Just watched an interview on Channel 4 news (best news channel in the UK) and they interviewed Sigourney Weaver about Avatar, roles for women and Ghostbusters 3.
She said she doesn't have a big part in it but thinks Bill Murray has a bigger part. Then, she put her hand to her mouth and mock-whispered, "He might be playing a ghost." I've never heard about this before and it struck me as quite a big reveal.
The full interview is in Channel 4's site. If you use this call me Tall Guy.
I couldn't get Channel 4's site to behave properly; if anyone can access that interview, please drop a link in the Talkbacks below.
Does this mean Peter Venkman's dead? Or is he playing an unrelated ghost? Or, are we looking at combinations thereof? Or, as Talkbacker Garbage Man points out, maybe she's simply referring to how old Bill Murray is?

You're all queens.

Haha, I almost spoiled it for the three neanderthals who haven't seen it yet
-
Douchey, but I couldn't resist? Hey, is it just me and my advancing age or is Sigourney getter hotter year by year?
-
...not looking to be spoiled on a project I'm looking forward to this early in development.
-
This movie is going to kick ass!
-
...that she was making a joke about how old Bill Murray is?
-
No way they're gonna make him a ghost. Certainly not to start with. What kind of downer start to a re-start is that - Venkman dead?!?!? Now, maybe I could see Venkman volunteering to die (or become a ghost) to defeat the Big Bad (complete with a final victorious 'adios' to his character at the end), but I just can't see this starting out with him dead.
-
..hope I'm wrong, though.

-
For real? Bill Murray is the man, but I swear he is lookin' really old. Sigourney is six years old (61) but looks approximately ten years younger if you ask me.
-
Garbage Man how did Merrick know you were going to say 'she was joking about how old Bill Murray is'???
That's fucking spookier than anything in Ghostbusters. -
I think I read this on Aintitcool YEARS ago. That Murray said he wouldn't come back for Ghostbusters 3 unless he was a ghost. She may just be going off of that comment. I could be wrong though.
-
Six years oldER (than Bill Murray), not six years old. 'Cause "six years old" would make me a pedophile with the thoughts I have 'bout that woman. Mmm mmm mmm!
-
There is a special place reserved for "Ghostbusters 3"
-
... but wasn't that an old joke of Murray's? That he'd only come back if he was a ghost? Maybe I'm getting mixed up with when Charlton Heston said he'd only come back to the Planet of the Apes movies if he got to blow up the world.
-
"Ghostbusters Go To Hell" featured the young Ghostbusters going to hell and Murray was one of the ghosts there, so it may be yet another iteration of that script.
-
OF COURSE she was f-ing around. Good grief - it doesn't take much to get people cackling like a bunch of ancient hens, in here, does it?
-
That'll teach me to bury scoops in Talkbacks

age. But maybe it's just my memories of a young, blue under-clothed Sigourney from Avatar day. Yowza!
-
The one that Akroyd has discussed for years about New York becoming hell on earth, had Venkman dying and becoming a ghost. I somewhat assumed they'd keep that plot point.

... I'd hate to lose the original Ghostbusters. Unless they commit suicide in the third act in order to stop whatever villain they are fighting...
-
...But it will go on to make a lot of money whether it sucks or not. Then we will be seeing the headline "A Possible Fourth Ghostbusters?!?"
The second one sucked and this is a bad idea IMO. -

by burgundy82
Maybe this is just me, but even during his hilarious turn in *SPOILER(I guess? Probably not, at this point)* Zombieland, and even though his death scene was one of the funniest parts of it, I was profoundly bummed out to watch him draw his last breath. If he's a ghost in GB3 (and especially if there's no mission within the plot to resurrect him), I don't think I'm going to like watching that very much.
-
Goddamn headline length constraints
-
He won't be able to fit into the jumpsuit anymore.
-
Aykroyd's talked before about how Murray has occasionally played with the idea that he'd return as a dead character/ghost.
-
Sort of like Michael J. Fox's character in "The Frighteners."
-
In the panties and the lil' half t-shirt.
-
stated in the past that she wasnt going to do ghostbusters 3. I would love to know what her pay check was for avatsr. I thought she had all but retired. guess I was wrong. with scott doing an alien. I wonder would cameron do the 5th alien film. with weaver. and get scott as a producer.
-
he isn't dead through the whole thing, it's maybe 4 mins of screen time and it reads as a pretty funny scene...god you fan boys like to bitch about your preconceived notions of a movie..grow up, this project is in the right hands, just wait to see what's in store
-
Sixty is correct, not sixty-one. And Bill is, indeed, fifty-nine. Don't know how I came up with fifty-five. Saw somewhere this morning that birth year was 1954, not 1950 (as is the case). Don't know where I saw that. My apologies. Still, Bill's looking much older and Sigourney much younger than their respective ages.
-
Harold Ramis told me this when I interviewed him for Ice Harvest 4 years ago: http://tinyurl.com/yexgocvBut it's interesting to hear that it's still a thought. I personally think that's inspired even if it really does mean a passing of the torch movie instead of an honest to god Ghostbusters movie.

How did he die in the script that you doctored, JettL93?
by the bicycle sharer
Just curious.
-
Especially Bill Murray. God, make it so.
-
GB 3 will feature a comic team-up of Slimer and Venkman trolling the Netherworld for the ghost of Steve Guttenburg's career. ...Per JettL93
-
Years ago when they talked about doing another one Bill Murray said he'd only do it if he were a ghost
-
Lucas will co-produce GB3 and the plot will feature a spectral "war" between forces that want to control the Ghostworld. Ghostbusters are convinced to intervene on one side of thigns, only to find out they may not be fighting on the "right" side! according to JettL93....
-
Years ago? Hmmm. I didn't even know that there were Ice Harvests 2 - 3. Can't really see the need for three sequels to Ice Harvest, but, really, Hollywood will sequelize anything.
-
Was just telling my wife that I thought somebody needed to resurrect the shit outta him (Pulp Fiction-style) then, flipping channels, ol' Gutt shows up in a Lifetime movie or some such. And talk about Jabba-sized! Steve Guttenberg gotta eat - Manhattan!
-
Venkman will convene an all-star team of ghosts, led by himself, which will include Bogart, Steve McQueen, John Wayne, and Dom Delouise (who will have a number of comedic scenes with Slimer!) GB3 will be like GB meets the Magnificent 7! According to JettL93......
-
You forgot to mention the starlette du jour that JettL93 was bangin' while working on the script. Or the Hollywood power player that he was talkin' to about a role in said film. ;-)Hey, we got thousands of al qaeda around the globe and none of 'em has targeted JettL93 yet?!?!? What gives?
-
IDW kinda did this a year ago when they released Ghostbusters: The Other Side.
http://www.amazon.com/Ghostbusters-Other-Side-Keith-Champagne/dp/1600104266 -
Too sad about Guttenburg. Perhaps he's been hanging around Luke Wilson and Jerry Lewis lately (seriously, I saw Luke WIlson on that Verizon commercial recently and wondered what happened to his facial features.)
-
Look for it in GB4! He's banging Megan Fox right now, but after he gets bored with her and moves on to his next conquest, he'll bang out a script for it.....according to JettL93 After he finishes tongue-bathing Lucas' taint.
-
What if Ghostbusters 3 was basically Zombieland 2?
-
Gets to do all of his scenes as voice-work with a CGI BM on the screen. He did 2 Garfields this way.
-
GB3 will be about the kids of Louis Tully and Janine who take over the mantle of ghostbusting, team -up with Egon's genius nephew and the ghost of Venkman to hunt down a serial killer who's motive for killing may be.....to create an "invincible" ghost army!!!! according to JettL93.....

...LIKE YOU WANT MEGAN FOX'S PUSSY.

And a totally badass one.
-
Re: Steve, Luke, and Jerry, I'm reminded of Monica in "Friends" (I know, I know - blame my wife) in the fat suit where she claims that the camera adds ten pounds and Chandler responds, "how many cameras were on you?"Oh, and Val Kilmer, too (since Professor Monster mentioned him)! These guys each need their own postal code. When Val (God love him!) sits around the house, he sits *AROUND* the house!
-
And thought of the porn star! I was like "nice job, Rick!" Then I figured out (thank you, interwebs!) that it was Janine Melnitz, the secretary. (The internet giveth porn reference and the internet taketh away.)
-
It could make sense that they all in fact "die" to cross into the spirit world. Or one of them dies and it is a movie to save that person.. Or Sigourney is just blowing smoke to the media for fun.
-
Playing Santa's brother or son or something in a made-for-TV movie on deep, deep cable. I guess it's not like he was ever an Orson Welles or Marlon Brando, a great talent brought low and turned bloated, but still... kinda sad.
-
For the love of GOD, NOT McG PLEASE!!!!!
-
I thought she said no. OK... cool.
-
I will NEVER buy you now DELSYM... Since you think ANYONE HERE at AICN wants to see your product... Also, Peter as a GHOST... Brilliant and STUPID... a Neat 2-for-1 that!
-
Which she is. I think it's the hair. She's rocking the Granny Helmet. It's like at a certain age the hair tries to escape the head but can't so it settles into this strange hairfolliclesphere hovering at six inches.She's still my hero though.
-
Yeah, I think that was it Santa's something-or-other. Call me an American, but I love come back stories (no Janine references, please) and I'd like to see the ol' Gutt do something, I don't know, decent. God forgive me, but I almost watched that Lifetime flick based on the power of Gutt alone. Almost, I said. Guttenberg did a fairly decent job of playing the smarmy, smartass archtypical 80s character back in the day and I'll always have a soft spot in my heart (head?) for him based on Short Circuit alone.
-
Still think she's smoking! One of my friends was in "The TV Set" with her and claims that she's still sending out the MILF-tastique vibes.
-
The above was a "shout out" to YOU!
-
Seriously, this guy/girl/she-thing/it... Many of us on this site have been or are in, the Biz. Every time JettL93 sees us respond, I gives JettL93 what 'it' wants. We are wasting time on a LOSER. Aren't we done yet with this one? I suggest we BOYCOTT JettL93, ignore all POSTS no matter how douchie, and let 'it' go to another site... Say, JoBlo, etc... Nache.
-
Is it just me or is the shorter 'doo that older chicks get that they claim "makes 'em look younger" not working. Hate that look. "No, ma'am, it doesn't make you look younger; it just makes you look like every other old lady with that 'doo."
-
Is both a source of hate and amusement for me. I love when he "brings the crazy." Unfortunately, lately, all I've seen is a really bland and watered down version of the glory that was once his. Come on, Jett! Make with the insane!
-
Didn't I see them play in Austin once? Punk chick band?
-
Stinging Masturbation is a "The Police" tribute band. My bad.
-
Just hold out at least 2-3 more years! Come on by then Ramis will probably realize that everyone is really to old to come back to this. Ramis is fucking done and if he goes through with this with those ass clowns from The Office then its going to suck major balls. Ramis needs to surrond himself with less people who suck his balls. Probably why he hates Murray now, because Murray isn't going to sit around and tell him that his shit doesn't stink.
-
Just that she's old and has large hair. Besides, my preferences are a tad more dick-up-the-ass so it's all just theoretical from my perspective.
-
So that's the answer to his actual age for the poster that thought he was 55.
-
Either all of the GB are dead and a new team has to save them, or only Bill is dead and "haunts" the old GB team during their daily lives would be good for me.
The only way this thing gets made is as a "passing of the torch" story. -
Thanks. Aquatarkusman cleared that up already and I acknowledged my error. But I'll do so again. My bad.
-
You're gonna have to come a little more specific than "dick up the ass" 'cause that leaves fifty percent of the population nervous as a motherfucker. (Unless it was TO these gentlemen that you refer.) (But point taken on Sigourney's hotness.)

Well said, sir, and understood. Glad you can still appreciate Sigourney, however, despite your personal proclivities. I've always found it silly that one can't remark upon the relative attractiveness of a sex for which we have no interest without being cajoled.Best short post EVAH! "I meant my ass." ROF!
-
I didn't get it.
-
this is of course all from a first draft and may entirley be changed by the time we see this film, but my source tells me that in fact all 4 G-busts become ghosts, Peter of course wants to use the new abilites to spy on sigorney's character in the shower, so hilarity will be for sure to ensue. Some of the other ideas i have heard for this movie make me really gitty for it (Like a beefed up role for slimer), while some of it makes me wonder what the fuck they are doing here (like the fact that slimer now has a wife named Die-anne who slaps him on the head several times...apparently ghosts spousal abuse is funny?).It waits to be seen what gets left in later drafts, but the script is in good hands and our Batman 3 script is definetly going to have some competion at the box office in 2012
-
Nothing could be funnier than ghost spousal abuse (unless it's a "beefed up role for Slimer"). You know what you tell a ghost wife with two black eyes? Nothing; you already told her twice. Hey, Die-anne, get in the kitchen and cook me some fucking dinner!
-
Hey TBS, glad I could amuse for a moment, with Jet going the blah-blah route. Cheers, mate!

LOL! He's fucking back! Now, make with the super crazy, Jett. (I look on the aicn posters as seedy Western bad guys shootin' their posting guns at Jett's feet and yelling "dance, dance"!)

Ghost child jokes are funny, too. A pedophile ghost and a ghost child walk into a forest. Ghost child looks up at the ghost pedophile and says, "mister, I'm scared." Ghost pedophile says, "you're scared? I've got walk outta here alone."

...and the new Ghostbusters will now hve to fight them? What better ghost to challenge a living Ghostbuster than a dead Ghostbuster?
-
She'd make an excellent Kitty Carlyle when Hollywood gets around to making What's My Line into a film. With Kevin Spacey as Bennett Cerf.
-
And to you! Now, I gotta go "take a meeting" with Carla Gugino for a script I'm working on with her for Spielberg.
-
Sigourney was hot as hell in Galaxy Quest.
-
Isn't it a spoiler only if someone gives a crap about the plot?
-
I HATED Ghostbusters 2! I Hated it! Who the fuck turns the statue of liberty into their own personal piggyback ride bitch slave? They nuked the fridge with that bullshit. So why not give them a better send off? The Ghostbusters game was a fun throwback and reminded us how fun The Ghostbusters are & can be Again!
-
in fact im pretty sure i read it here??
-
Thanks for that, thought i was either losing my mind, or had some sort of precognition
-
they never used that bullshit script where they were in Hell. That would've sucked.
-
Venkman is one of the coolest characters in cinematic history. His first scene is one of the greatest introductions of a character I've ever seen. I'll cry if he's a fucking ghost.

Just totally Avatar, who thinks of Avatar ideas like this?

Is that the same thing? Either way, I gotta tell ya...It wasn't half bad!

It's been proven.

Who's not looking forward to seeing old/fat Ghostubsters?
by onin solstice
Seeing a land-beast Ramis and Akroyd waddling around with neutrona wands and craggly ol' Murray making quips dosen't entice me. (props to Hudson for being in awesome shape and staying fit) I would have loved to have seen a CG animated film with the cast voices. THAT would make me want to hear the old theme once again.
-
alot of love went into the game script. sure it was a nostalgic retread, but the cast were all on form. hilarious stuff...."we eat gods for breakfast!"
-
The bigger her part the better it is. I love that she's not stuck up either. She knows it's not a good idea but she's willing to be involved. Good example for people who take things too seriously. And yes she is hot. Age has given more than it's taken in her case.
-
I think Ms. Weaver still looks pretty good for her age. But I remember thinking when I saw her in her panties in Alien - "Damn, this chick has one of the flattest asses I've ever seen!" Not sexy!
-
the music is horrible and I'll admit it has its shortcomings(same style of montage as the first movie and a poor climax) but its still pretty funny. Janusz Poha was a great character. GB2 has a SHIT load of deleted scenes that have yet to surface anywhere(I've searched long and hard). Ray getting possessed by Vigo while driving the ecto1, Eugene Levy has a cameo as Rick Moranis's cousin "Sherman" who helps the GB's escape from the mental institute AND not to mention Louis Tully's two failed attempts to "bust" slimer @ the GB HQ. All of the scenes included in the GB2 montage were actually parts of bigger scenes, so had they not made the retarded decision to cut all of those into a fucking montage we could have had quite the film. Find the script it reads so much better than the film plays. i still pray at night for a GB2 Extended/Directors re edited cut of the film. search the net and you can find so many pics of ghosts that were never used like the "frog subway ghost". every time i watch GB2 i all can think about is all of the potentially awesome unseen footage that awaits. I've even emailed Harry(no reply) and SONY(no reply) about why these arent included in any DVD release or if they have any info about them. HARRY IF YOUR READING THIS USE YOUR CONTACTS AND FIND THE GB2 DELETED SCENE FOOTAGE I BEG YOU!!. I'd ask Jett but I'm sure he's to busy writing the Hobbit with PJ and co

Murray palying a ghost will b emore funnier than...
by hollywoodhellraiser
Pete and Dana boring the shit outta me!Everytime GB2 look like it was about to get good, we were thrown scenes of Pete and Dana or that ugly baby!That shit became annoying and dumb!
-
and go to Hell, like Bill and Ted?, or maybe Murray plays dual roles?
-
If this rumor is true, it could be possible that Murray could just temporarily be a ghost, right? Maybe he has to become a ghost as part of the plot, then he returns to human form? Just speculating.
-
Oscar as a teenager or young adult is fine with me.. However it won't be a Ghostbusters movie without the original cast alive and fighting ghosts. Murray perhaps wants to be a ghost so his character can be all digital all the time, however that would be stupid.. Get in there, all of you are old and fat, just make the movie with or without the weight loss.
-
From Zombieland where Bill dies and then his ghost gets sucked into the screen where Ghostbuster's was playing (ala Last Action Hero) so now Murray's real ghost is in the original Ghostbusters movie interacting with the characters (all youngified like X-Men 3 and timeified like Back To The Future II). Hilarity ensues.
-
You can almost "see" those scenes in a comic that came out back then. Whatever company was making comics based on the GB cartoon adapted the GB2 movie with the characters looking like their cartoon versions. It included possessed Ray's drive and Louis's cousin.
-
I think a bit of that slipped in the movie. During their big montage, there's a second where Venkman looks shocked at the speed they're driving or something. I assume that's footage from Ray's wild ride.
-
Hasn't Murray been saying for years that he'd only return if he were a ghost? Or he only said it once years ago...either way. It's probably true.
-
Venkman is dead for reason that is a throwaway line/running gag throughout the film. And he shows up at the end to teach the young Ghostbusters an important lesson about teamwork. That's not what I want. That's what it's likely to be. I don't care that I love The Office. Those guys are in over their heads and the studio will eat them alive if they haven't already.

FLOCKA!!

I remember hearing about this a while ago, as mentioned above, and I am stoked on the idea. I think its a great idea. I love that they are still using it, but its a bummer that Ghostbusters fans know about it.
-
I think they'll show him die, rather than just having him cameo as a ghost. Well...I hope that is that case, anyway.
-
He'd give us the real inside scoop! Hahahaha! Pfft...
-
I'm posting alot here. But, I just saw Jett's post. Hahaha. Wow.
-
. . . oscar becoming a ghostbuster seems like natural progression to me. If your father had a cool ass job wouldn't you want to follow in his footsteps? It's either that or a bunch of jackasses they happen to recruit because they've seen too much action. I much prefer the Oscar approach.
-
This was mentioned years ago, so no, you guys are remembering it right. There was talk of having Murray die and then be a ghost through the movie. And I think it was actually Murray who came up with the idea.
-
I hope this is as good as that was!! Eh that was my attempt at what the kids call sarcasm... I like exclamation points!!!
-
Oscar wasn't Venkman's son, was he?
-
Have all of the original Ghostbusters as digitized ghosts, invite the cast of Saturday night Live (which all of them currently suck) have a cameo of McGruber...Don't screw up this movie, it does not need a re-boot, but make it for all of us who watched it back in 1986...plz..

will be played by Shia LaBeouf.

Back in my Usenet troll days. I posted a made-up rumor based on Murray's difficult nature that he would only return if he were a ghost. Now they actually may do it. I also made up a "Data dies in the next Star Trek" lie on Usenet and they actually did that awful idea, too. (Though in my version he died of a computer virus.)

...you have no soul"
Really?! You think that?
In my opinion Ghostbusters 2 is what's lacking a soul. Apart from the great courtroom sequence at the beginning that film was a fucking mess and one of the most disappointing sequels of all time in my humble opinion, in relation to how incredible the first one is. -
Yes. Should Bill Murray be a ghost? Probably not? Will I stop interviewing myself? Perhaps. Don't you hate when people do this? Yes. Do they do it a lot on the Avatar pages? Yes.

#1: slowly pan down to a trio/quartet of ghostbuster ghosts in full gear looking slightly embarrassed. Venkman the ghost looks towards the camera and says "who ya gonna call now?"
#2: slowly pan down to a trio/quartet of ghostbuster ghosts in full gear. Venkman swats a hand through his companion. "Great plan, Ray!" -
'Cos it's all bout Sigourney's Beaver. WOO! See what I did there?
-
bill murray was my dad
-
About the same amount of disappointment, right?
-
Granted I lose more memory cells every day, but if I recall, Murray has gone on record re:GB3 that he'd only participate if he were CGI'd, not necessarily as a ghost.
-
Great news. Murray is so funny and so is this:

you want animated greatness of GB, play the game I can't stress that enough
as for casting of GB new movie I agree that Oscar progressing to a full fledged Ghostbuster makes sense and the nephew could be the actor from the fan film Return of the Ghostbusters "see internet for that", I would have Sean"Stifler" Williams Scott play the older Oscar as he can pull off a convincing "raised" by Venkman riff
and pick Alyssia Milano (or Alison Haynaghan) as the female GB lead ideas suggestions? -
The problem with Slimer in the original G3 draft was that the character- while "beefed up"- didn't have an arc. in this latest draft, he's portrayed as a lovable loser who can't stand up to his hectoring wife, Die-ann. After an adventure in which he loses his tooth, steals a tiger and marries a hooker, he stands up to his wife at the end of the movie and tells her off in front of the whole wedding.
-
that somebody brought to school in first grade, about four years before the actual sequel was released. There was a whole section about Eddie Murphy being involved in the sequel... was fucking weird, but I remember being excited since I loved him on SNL. Yes... my neglectful parents pretty much let me watch whatever I wanted. Thank God for that...

The new Ghostbusters will be rescued by the OGGBs
by the green gargantua
bank on it.

You smell something?
-
Maybe they're giving him the Ectoplasm-Covering, like in the Cartoon, so that he gains some Ghost-Abilities.
At least, that won't need to let him die. -

Ghostbusters Game: Thumbs WAY UP.. Killing Data: You Idiots!
by autodidact
Data is one of the coolest things ever in Star Trek. I'd like to see an alternate timeline Trek story where we see Data basically ruling the galaxy like 1000 years from now.
-
No kidding around, I would actually like to see the storyline you suggested.
-
and you all know it.
-
I'm amazed anybody even cares about the notion of a 3rd Ghostbusters movie. Frankly I thought the first two sucked back in the day and time hasn't endeared them to me any.
-
What if the GB's induce death for a short period of time (like in Flatliners) to gain access to the spirit world?And THEN had to place themselves in the storage facility for some reason and be confronted with every ghost they ever locked up?This stuff writes itself!
-
Hell he would be hilarious as a Ghost buster!
-
"Sigourney Weaver nipple slip."
I'm a sick sick man. -
I'd watch that movie.
-
Saying the original Ghostbusters movie sucked pretty much pegs you as a complete fucktard. Yeesh...
-
I guarantee it. Bill will become a bad ghost and it will be up to the remaining Ghostbusters to stop him.
I'll be back when the film comes out to boast.
