Aykroyd Comments on Murray, Ghostbusters 3! Working on Script w/Ramis! - Page 5

I don't really mind having a new, younger crop of Ghostbusters, but I can't say I'm crazy about any of the suggestions above.

I think Steve Carell's deadpan style of humor might fit though. Or someone like Aasif Mandvi from the Daily Show. Or one of those stoner comedians like Doug Benson, who could probably bring a fun new perspective to the thing.

[COLOR=#003399]Brian Posehn[/COLOR] would be a great as a guy with the helmet one, reading whether he is stelling the truth or not, like in the scene from the first film with Dana.

Andy Richter could pull off being a Ghostbuster, I think.

Been a while since you've seen the original movie?

Ghostbusters 3 will be so in line with Beverly Hills Cop 3, Die Hard 4, Indiana Jones 4, Blues Brothers 2000, Terminator 3, and other terrible late sequels whose names just escape me.

I'm a fan of 3 of those films so further proof that the loud minority internet haters aren't 'right' about them.
I don't care to change your mind, just don't make a blanket statement as if this were a truth.

All overly nitpicked.

Can't see that where I am, sorry. It's geolocked. My point however is that the movies aren't built on a foundation of low-brow humour. And I just saw GB on Halloween, and there was nothing remotely low-brow about it.

The fact that it was written as a vehicle for John Belushi should give an indication of the type of humor they were going for. I believe I've posted my picks for a new crop of Ghostbusters but in case no one saw those:

Eliza Dushku or Alyssa Milano (or both)
Seth Rogen
Will Smith
Zachery Levi

Aragorn · November 2 2010, 09:03 PM

Will Smith is definitely out of the question considering his salary (and probably unwillingness to appear in someone else's franchise), but way back when GB3 was first being tossed around, the proposed idea was for Will Smith, Ben Stiller and Chris Farley.

Now they should consider maybe Paul Rudd and Elizabeth Banks.

Well, there is that, but I still wouldn't call the GB movies low-brow. It's rather tame by comparison. It's not like they were going out of their way to write something crass.

Admiral_Young · November 2 2010, 09:37 PM

Damn those are excellent choices...especially Elizabeth Banks. She'd make an excellent Ghostbuster.

Captain Craig · November 2 2010, 10:01 PM

What about Emma Stone?

Admiral_Young · November 2 2010, 10:49 PM

Emma Stone will be fairly busy over the next few months filming "Spider-Man".

Here's mine:

Shia LeBeouf (Oscar Venkman)

Christy Carlson Romano (character similar to Egon Spengler or Kylie Griffin)

Seth Rogen (character similar to Ray Stanz)

Nick Cannon (character similar to Winston Zeddmore-can be a younger nephew of Winston!)

Great choices, or what?

Admiral_Young · November 3 2010, 08:37 PM

I like everything with the except of Nick Cannon (can't stand him).
