Just hope that the director doesn't replace the rest of them. Just need one new guy or new woman in there. No need to replace the rest. Maybe have someone play as his son or daughter or his wife or anyone for God sake. Won't hurt.
If they do replace the rest then I just hope it doesn't go down the drain on the 3rd movie.

Last I heard Bill Murray refused to be in it because they were all too old to play the parts and nobody wants to see fat grandparents fight ghosts and he was right. But the franchise is too valuable to let die so "something" will happen. It will probably be a turd with a new set of characters and Dan Aykroyd playing some lame role where he takes care of the new young bucks. Fucking disaster. Just think Blues Brothers 2000 compared to the original.

OK that make sense. Dan Aykroyd probably gonna say "Aliens are coming." I remember he did a document or some bull crap about the Aliens. LOL

Maybe they can use his... Ghost?

They really need to just let it go, especially now. The original is a bona fide classic, and it didn't even need Ghostbusters II, let alone another sequel 30 years later.

Yes, IMHO his best work. Every year (for about 15 years by now) a friend and me gather at Feb 2nd and watch it. This year he had another commitment so we met the night of Feb 1st and waited until midnight to start watching it.
