I think an all female cast for Ghostbusters is a smart way to go. That way you aren’t always comparing them to the original. They can be their own characters and not newer versions of the old ones.
I can get behind it I’d just like to see a diverse cast. Like almost Community level in diversity. I don’t regularly watch that show but that type of dynamic is what I think could work well.
Hi guys, being in Australia I don’t get to see SNL or have any idea who’s on it now. I don’t mind a ghostbusters 3, as long as they pull the piss out of ghost hunters and all the “ghost reality TV” crap.
Also the producer of the back to the future franchise came out on Facebook last week saying there will never will be any bttf 4. The stoty is done, the charactors found there happy ending. It’s good to see some ip owners not selling out to the studios for some fast money. Future spok is pleased
Hello and glad to see we’ve been reaching there! SNL is I think the best it’s been in years due to the hosts lately and the cast.
Ghostbusters 3 I think should be fine regardless of a all Female Cast. I’d rather see this than three, sixty year old men running lol.
I am glad there will never be a BTTF4. I just hope it never gets the remake treatment.
Again thanks for the comments!
The Chris Pratt episode was fantastic. I loved the He-Man Lion-O sketch.
I loved that clip. Also one of my favorites was the Marvel joke they planted in there on casting but using that Guardians of the Galaxy intro to the teams.
And he also confirmed there will be no 3d transfer of bttf 1, and no remastering of the cg in a special release. How ever he did say at the end of the article they didn’t need money from the franchise, unless they ran out of money. Here’s hoping they don’t die any time soon
That’s good to know.I hope there is never a BTTF4. There is no need.
I always thought that cellphone technology was always light years a head of battery technology. Glad to hear the possibility of what is on the horizon.
I’m excited to see what they plan to do with this new technology. It could mean more battery life and longevity for our mobile, tablets, and laptop devices. Not to mention in a pinch charging them back to 70% in 2 min. I am looking forward to seeing this hit the market.
