Better a good video game than a bad movie. by Bungion Boy	Nov 14th, 2007 06:14:17 PM
However if they really could make a great Ghostbusters movie, I'd much rather see that. But whether the game is good or bad, I'll surely play it.

Ghostbusters 2 was good by WolfmanNards	Nov 14th, 2007 07:06:42 PM
The movie had it's flaws, but was overall a good sequel. The best thing about it was the opening of the film. In GB1, we leave the heroes having saved the world. Everybody is cheering for them. They are gods. 5 years pass, and forced into early retirement, they're making petty cash doing childrens' birthday parties. Venkman doesn't get the girl. She ditched him and had a kid with some other guy. It's all kind of sad, and a great foundation from which to watch them rise once again. There are great jokes, and excellent set pieces. Who didn't enjoy watching the statue of liberty walk? I've always dreamt there would be another good ghostbusters game. We can't forget the GB game for the sega master system. Brilliant game way beyond its time. But a FPS GB would be awesome. It's a bit disappointing, though, to see that this might mean there isn't another movie in the works. Ghostbusters Hellbent would have been a great sequel in CGI. You can't make another live action ghostbusters movie for one reason alone- The Ghostbusters is more than just the concept, it is the characters, therefore it would be a bad idea to bring new Ghostbusters in, yet the ghostbusters we knew and loved are a bit aged, gained some extra lbs, and probably wouldn't want to be making action comedies at their age. CGI would be a brilliant approach. However, let's wait and see how things pan out. Whichever way things work out, it looks like we'll be entertained nonetheless.

Ghostbusters 1 & 2 kick ass... by judge dredds fresh undies	Nov 14th, 2007 07:19:27 PM
Okay 2 wasn't so good as the first but I still very much enjoy it. I like this game idea but as Merrick said a film would be cooler, why would Murray do a game but not a film?
Ghostbusters 2 is SHITTY! by Musicballs	Nov 14th, 2007 07:20:38 PM
Ghostbusters 2 had extensive re-shoots. There was a scene they shot where Ray gets possessed by Viggo and he goes crazy while driving the Ecto 1. Winston punches him out before he can crash the Ecto 1 into a tree. Also, they altered the final act significantly... The slime covering the museum was supposed to suck the mayor's evil assistant Jack Hardemeyer into it. Most of this material was included in the comic book adaption.

GB2 by Dollar Bird	Nov 14th, 2007 08:41:55 PM
Sorry but I'm going to have to fall on the Ghostbusters 2 was bad side of the argument. In fact, it's the tried and true measure of a bad film. Which would you rather watch: a movie you just declared as lousy, or Ghostbusters 2 ten times in a row? If you pick the 10-times GB2 viewing, you know you've got a bad film. Honestly, though, GB2 had a horrible villain who never seemed to be of any threat. He was a painting for crying out loud. The Statue of Liberty walking was horrible. I hated McNichol, even my soft spot for all things "Dragonslayer" coudn't make me like him in that role. He spent the whole movie saying "Viggo? Vi-go?" Gah!

Agreed that a remake is not a good idea. by CreasyBear	Nov 14th, 2007 09:11:08 PM
Am I the only one noticing the incongruity between the writers threatening the halt of production of writing, and the utter remake-laden shit that's been dumped out continually for years now? Shouldn't writers wait until they produce a lot of creative, fresh material before striking? (Oh, and yeah, I appreciate the irony that my talkback name is lifted from a remake.)
And Ghostbusters 2... by Bobo_Vision	Nov 14th, 2007 09:11:44 PM
...really sucked. There was so much potential to do something great, but they tried too hard to rehash what was already done. They shouldn't have brought back Sigourney Weaver, and a baby? Babies and ghosts don't mix...we don't want babies in our ghost movies. It was the second instalment, and they should have created something much darker and riskier.

Ghostbusters had a mythos? by cdubbs727	Nov 14th, 2007 09:55:11 PM
Seriously, I really get irked when people try to take Ghostbuster seriously and say that it has a mythology to uphold or that they want to see a "kick-ass" Ghostbusters. The films were comedies! That's why I don't see a video game working...yeah, it's a fun idea...but the GB films (the first especially) was not about action and adventure, but about dry wit in absurd circumstances. Can that translate to a game?
cdubbs727 by TheNorthlander	Nov 14th, 2007 10:06:15 PM
There was a really good Ghostbusters game for the C64 back in the day. If this new one is anything at all like the mystery footage that popped online, which I for one think it SHOULD be even though this project seems unconnected to that, I think a game could be cool. Damn, that new logo just seemed so right.

Murray will never do a live action Ghostbusters by moondoggy2u	Nov 14th, 2007 11:45:28 PM
I doubt he would even do a live action film, to be honest. The guy is about as close to retiring as an actor can get, content with phoning in the occasional voice-over. How else can you explain Garfield 2?

People trashing Murray???? by Barry Egan	Nov 15th, 2007 12:33:40 AM
For doing Garfield instead of Ghostbuster? He probably only worked 2 or 3 days on Garfield recording the voice work. Murray has had a pretty impressive run of work in the last 10 years or so. Rushmore, Royal Tennenbaums, Broken Flowers, Coffee and Cigarettes, Lost in Translation, The Life Aquatic......That's a pretty decent resume.

and anyone else that remembers Ghostbusters on the Commodore 64. Awesome. Although I played it on an emulator on my PC a year or two ago and found it dissapointingly short and easy (when I was a kid I never once managed to finish it!).

Good news, as long as it has a few cinamatics that are real world footage of the guys goofing around and not shitty "life like anamatics" of the GBs. To see them all joking around and giving the narratives to move the game along, like the jail scene in the orginal. I am down.

GHOSTBUSTERS-STAR TREK: TOS-BATTLESTAR GALACTICA. THE ANSWER TO BRINGING BACK ALL THE BEST ORIGINAL SHOW AND MOVIES IS ANIMATION.

WHY NOT A NEW BATTLESTAR GALACTICA CONTINUATION SERIES WITH THE ORIGINAL ACTORS VOICING THE REAL CHARACTERS?

They could play on gags about their age and weight! have the old fuckers still trying to get into Ripleys pants! Ghostbusters was never about DieHard style action scenes just great story, characters, dialogue and the odd well done spook FX. Come on one last time for a giggle! Get em all out of retirement, if Indy can do it so should the Ghostbusters. It would be a massive event!
But here's what they should do..... by Dasher	Nov 15th, 2007 12:49:03 PM
In addition to the game - maybe after it comes out - they should sell a DVD of the "completed" game as if someone had played it perfectly from start to finish. That way it would be turning the game into a movie. They should also do this for the other movie games like 'Scarface' and 'The Godfather.'
As far as I know hollywood doesnt like... by emeraldboy	Nov 15th, 2007 12:58:14 PM
Bill Murray. He is a very difficult customer and basically told hollywood to go fuck themselves and then said he was retired. that was when he lost the actor oscar and got really pissed off about that. He is Bi-polar. So when he is in good form he gets on with everyone but when he down he gets angry and pissed. Wes anderson found this out. Anderson has said that he will never work with Murray again as has Soifa Coppolla.

After broken flowers came out just after he lost the best actor oscar. It went way back to the days of ghostbusters and ghostbusters 2. Ramis and Aclroyd found murray to be a right royal pain in the ass. Seemingly the only obstacle to doing GB 2 was murray himself. Sofia Coppolla signed up Murray to do LOst in translation but she warned by several people about murrays difficult nature. When Murray is in great form he can very funny and the set apprantly was buzzing when this happened. However when murray was not the set was thunderous. Another group who found this out were the cast Charlie angels. Murray's volatility on set made sure that he didnt come for the awful sequel. People in hollywood are wary about casting him in anything. Sofia Coppolla summed it up best. when she said when bill is in great form he was a real live wire but when hes not it is best to just leave him alone.

The YouTube footage isn't fake by TruPhan	Nov 15th, 2007 04:58:10 PM
but it was done prior to Akroyd and Ramis' involvement. It was essentially a pitch by the developer, to show Akroyd what the medium is capable of now. Personally, I think the game is a better idea than the movie. Akroyd's writing has hit the shitter as of late, and to be honest, the Ghostbusters in "Man-hell-ton" (that's the story Akroyd is pushing - a Hell universe set in New York) in a video game sounds much more fun and plausible than it would on screen. Let's not forget, Akroyd originally wanted to set Ghostbusters hundreds of years in the future on the planet Mars. Let that sink in for a second. Now think of how much better the movie was once the reigns were pulled in a little bit. Well with technology the way it is nowadays, Akroyd thinks that he can tell that kind of story...the kind that involves our heroes in alternate dimensions and fighting monsters and is devoid of the entrepreneurial spirit that fueled the first movie. What a horrible movie that could make. But video games don't make the same demands of storyline and premise that movies do since the main focus is on gameplay. Basically, it sounds like it's the perfect fit for Ghostbusters III in my book. Akroyd gets to tell whatever crazy story he wants without having to worry about how accessible it is to the general public (since the game's target audience is those that love Ghostbusters and those that love video games) and fans who would have otherwise had nothing now get to have another story with some fun characters, and hopefully a really fun video game too.

RE: The Genesis Ghostbusters game by mr.underwater	Nov 15th, 2007 05:39:41 PM
I had it back in the day (the day of the Genesis) and it was pretty wack. Just another uninspired platformer (like many games of that era) with a Ghostbusters theme. The c64 version on the other hand, I thought was pretty fun and interesting as you actually had to run your Ghostbusting business and turn a profit.

Emeraldboy... by Alonzo Mosely	Nov 15th, 2007 06:02:26 PM
is referencing an article from British tabloid The Sun from 2004. The Sun is to be commended for putting young topless females on page 3, but is at the National Enquirer level in terms of credibility. Murray is a lot like his old pal, David Letterman, in that he is cranky and crotchety and doesn't abide fools. However, he is not blacklisted in Hollywood or hated by Sofia Coppola, or any of the other erroneous things EmeraldBoy has deemed worthy of dragging out of his memory... I suppose we should be grateful that old EB has at least managed a post somewhat on topic, incorrect though it is, normally his posts would ramble on insanely about some clown who performed on Irish TV in the 1950s and expect us to have any clue either what he was talking about or more importantly, what that had to do with anything anyone else was talking about...
Golly I hate this idea by 5 by 5	Nov 15th, 2007 06:31:05 PM
You can't have a Ghostbusters 3 without there being a, well, Ghostbusters 3. A game does not a movie make. Argh.
clarky104 by TruPhan	Nov 15th, 2007 06:31:21 PM
Cool, I just checked it out. I'm clicking through their comic right now that bridges the gap. I like that he references Extreme Ghostbusters off-handedly around page 11. There's a charm to the amateurish quality Braxton produces, and I'd be lying if I said I'm not excited to see what fans are able to do when they love a universe enough to do something like this. Gotta say though, Eugene was my favorite character in Freddy vs. Ghostbusters film; don't know why he they had him killed off.

Video Game is Best Course of Action by JuntMonkey	Nov 15th, 2007 09:12:17 PM
All you idiots denouncing the "video game as sequel" idea should get a clue. It's clearly the best course of action at this point. I'm a huge fan of Ghostbusters, but GB2 is not good, and Aykroyd's "ManHellton" (and a Donald Trump-like villain called "Louis Siphler") script idea for GB3 sounded pretty bad. As TruPhan explained, even if we're still getting a version of that script, it will be much more palatable in video game form. The fact that you have all 4 guys plus Potts and Atherton coming back is just huge, and could not happen in a movie. Some of you apparently hate video games for some reason, but you'd better start getting used to them if you want to experience more Ghostbusters. A GB3 movie would NOT be "printing money" in any way. Since Murray won't do live action your only option is full CGI, and that's going to be tremendously expensive. If the movie itself does not get REALLY solid reviews you're in big trouble. A "decent" video game will be printing money in this case - a "decent" movie will not. To address another question - there will apparently be some sort of flashbacks to part 1.

Back off. I'm not an idiot because I don't like the video game = 3rd Ghostbusters movie idea. And you're not an idiot for liking the idea. It's just not my cup of tea. If they don't have the means (or maybe the courage) to make the 3rd flick, then that's fine.
Murray will do two Garfield movies... by Mr Incredible	Nov 15th, 2007 09:33:50 PM
but he'll hold up Ghostbusters 3 until he gets the sweet offer of doing a video game? Might work; might not.
Ghostbusters 2 was just as good... well, it was atleast fun by hegele	Nov 15th, 2007 09:39:26 PM
I really loved Ghostbusters 2 too. Anyway, I wish they would do a third instead of a game, i also wish that Ms. Weaver would drop a line or two in the game for old time sake.
wait... this is made by the same team that made Scarface! by hegele	Nov 15th, 2007 09:43:17 PM
... any interest i had just flew out the window. Isn't Scarface supposed to be terrible?
Stay Puft was only blown to bits not destroyed by Pipple	Nov 15th, 2007 10:57:04 PM
It just reforms itself later i bet just like in the cartoon.
GB2 was weak by tme2nsb	Nov 15th, 2007 10:58:42 PM
Very fun movie, but so weak compared to the first one. I'm ashamed that my wife likes it more than the first. I can't wait for the superior Wii version :)
ITS ALL ABOUT THE STORY... by CENOBITE	Nov 16th, 2007 12:20:59 AM
you guys have no idea how good or bad this will turn out. However, one thing this has going for it is a couple of guys who know how to write funny shit... and that is one area where videogames need to improve. The writing. There are some good games out there, to be sure, but the one area where film and games can come together is in the writing. I look foward to see how this turns out. The graphics look sweet... now let's hope Vivendi puts in some good animation to go with the story.
and about the 1990 aspect. by CENOBITE	Nov 16th, 2007 12:35:41 AM
In a way, voice acting is a great venu for older actors, who don't feel they 'look' the part anymore... to create stories that don't depend on one's age. Hell, Sean Connery recently did voicework for the "007 From Russia With Love" videogame. He did sound older, but he somehow pulled it off! This could never happen with standard film. So to have Ghostbusters take place in the 90's is in a way, when GHOSTBUSTERS 3 should of been made. But it wasn't. Now they are older and have a chance to make that film! And who knows... if the game takes off and sells like hotcakes BAM! You have the next Ghostbusters film greenlighted. A "Grumpy-old-men" meets "Ghostbusters" comedy that most probably have lines like: Ray: wheeze "I'm getting too old for this." Egon:"I'm getting too tired for this." Peter: "I'm getting too... WOW, would you look at the size of those knockers?!?" Winston: "Yah, now that's what I call a large door." etc...

2 greatest Murray moments in GB2: by DocPazuzu	Nov 16th, 2007 03:10:46 AM
1) The look on his face after the hideous "handshake" with Yanosh. 2) The delivery of the line "Hello, Dana" when he enters her apartment.
Holy SHIT does that "Return of GB" fan film SUCK! by ShiftyEyedDog2	Nov 16th, 2007 03:14:30 AM
I was curious, checked it out. Nice FX for a fan film, but holy shit was that the worst acting I have ever seen, not to mention direction and writing.
Hey, where do these stairs go? by Mike Fornes	Nov 16th, 2007 03:53:15 AM
They go up.
Doc by Lost Jarv	Nov 16th, 2007 03:57:54 AM
Yes but that's balanced by the nauseating talking to Dana's baby scene that makes me want to barf. I do like the bit where he holds up a cat with no hair on it's tail. That shit makes me laugh.

BEWARE THE WHITE SCREEN OF DOOOOOOOM! by IAmMrMonkey!	Nov 16th, 2007 04:11:39 AM
It's worse than anything the Ghostbusters have ever faced. If anyone out there can read this message (because I sure as hell can't thanks to THE WHITE SCREEN OF DOOOOOOM) then please send help.
I'm with you, Jarv. by DocPazuzu	Nov 16th, 2007 05:42:23 AM
Has there ever been a more humorless, obnoxious, condescending and downright punchable cretin than MOM/BRU? Every time he figuratively opens that diseased, malodorous vulva he calls a mouth he spews forth incendiary, violence-inducing shit on a gargantuan scale. Then again, so does AnimalCracker, but he's simply evil.

The sun is a xenophobic piece of gutter trash. I did not read the article in the sun. I dont buy the sun. I read it in a movie magazine. in a profile piece about about bill murray,it was very lengthy piece. I am not going to mention the the name of the Publication but it was a very good film magazine untill very recently when they went to town on certain animated film about a family. the publication in question employed very good writers in the past, including Rod lurie and thier peak came when they did specials on the Lord of the Rings and published a booklet. Those were the haclyon does of that publication. They even launched thier own awards ceremony. It was great in the early days but this publication has really gone downhill. This publication gave a 5 star rating to a certain superhero movie about a superhero who goes under the moniker of the man of steel. Even though some of you hated that film. anyway I have wondered why talkbackers hate the established press so much, maybe its to do with the shortness of attention span.
CTHULHU VS GHOSTBUSTERS! by spud mcspud	Nov 16th, 2007 07:24:42 AM
Hey, it worked in the cartoon. Except I don't think Venkman hitting Cthulhu full in the face with only one proton stream from a moving rollercoaster would do it. Yeah, I know they electrified him too, but fuck! It's CTHULHU!! Ithaqua cthulha nodens! Ithaqua cthulha nodens! The stars are right for a new, scarier, darker, but no less sardonic threequel. And M-O-M, you are SO fucking outnumbered on here for love of Reitman's work on the first movie! You CANNOT hate Ghostbusters! Just... CAN'T!
Are you quoting Empire AGAIN Emeraldboy by Lost Jarv	Nov 16th, 2007 07:38:04 AM
I thought I'd told you about this before. It's been crap for Years. repeat after me: EMPIRE IS NOT TO BE TRUSTED.
Scarface by Lost Jarv	Nov 16th, 2007 08:18:33 AM
is alright- not great but OK. If you can get over the fact that it is a flagrant GTA rip-off, you can have some fun with it.

Having seen the original GB movie by emeraldboy	Nov 16th, 2007 10:27:19 AM
which I loved and the 2nd which, I saw in the US with my Mother and brother. And having seen the original toon and its spin off,extreme ghost busters. There was talk about doing a third film which never materialised. So now they are making a computer game instead. which will possibly be the third movie in all but name. Some talkbackers want a new movie. but other talkbackers will start to complain if they dont like who is in the directors chair, who is going to star in it. there will be uproar if a new team of writers is assembled. Murray will likely go to court over that and he will joined by Ackroyd and Ramis. and that is how it should be.
I want to say that by emeraldboy	Nov 16th, 2007 10:30:38 AM
I loved Ghostbusters very much. It was the first blockbuster movie that I saw. I dont doubt that hollywood will attempt to hire new writers and get a younger cast. Imagine some talkbackers will be pissed off.
spud mcspud by TruPhan	Nov 16th, 2007 10:56:23 AM
Can't read comments right now (white screen of death) but the Ghostbusters actually fought Cthulu in the animated series (season 2 I think). I remember thinking that episode would make a great movie
The Warriors game wasn't half bad either by Reel American Hero	Nov 16th, 2007 12:27:49 PM
Now that game took the existing story and expanded on the world of the movie, not to mention the opening sequence was basically the opening credits of the film done in game form. I thought that was pretty sweet.

this is SO not GB3, just GB1: the Game by ShiftyEyedDog2	Nov 16th, 2007 02:51:22 PM
on the one hand, i like that it wont have a sucky new story. on the other, what if it would have had a cool, fun new story? and like i said, having it only be the first film will make for a way too short, too linear game. i hope i am wrong. i want to love this.
