Ghostbusters: Afterlife News Thread (SPOILER WARNING)

From what I’ve read that’s still on!!!

I read somewhere this morning that the animated movie will be released after this new one.

Hollywood Reporter says that the movie was developed in secrecy under the name Rust City and that Reitman is looking for two young males and two young females.

I agree with some of you: this is the closest we’ve ever been. A start date, a release date, a secret code name and ABOVE ALL an official announcement made AFTER the script was completed.

A scene popped in my head. Remember when dean gave multiple middle fingers to Erin, Abby and Jillian? I pictured the same scene but with Ivan doing the same thing to Feig and Pascal :slight_smile:

From what it sounds like in the article it appears that After Jason Reitman told his father he had an idea I am guessing that this SECRET project became the new jump off point for all the other Ghostbusters projects. I believe Jason Reitman was quoted that the world of Ghostbusters has plenty of room for all these stories. So I believe we are still getting everything. The Animated film was deep in design and is being handled by another team of artists. I am wondering if the animated one was the project being handled by Lord and Miller. Who knows fun to think about though. After both of those are done and if both are well received, then I believe we will see Ecto Force. After that the sky is the limit. With this new project we may finally see the passing of the torch story that many of us have wanted to see and if this new crop of Busters captures our hearts and the hearts of general audiences the franchise will just continue to move forward. Good times ahead and I am so excited to be living and sharing these times with so many awesome GB Fans. :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

There will always be people for and against the movie, but can we not keep doing this?

And wow, that means at least two new movies in the works, with one I might even bring my son to. Tobin (almost 2) grabbed a Ghostbusters DVD from the shelf last week and hums the song whenever I put my GBlist on Spotify, so here is hoping the animation is dubbed and kidsfriendly!

This scene, aka the middle finger scene, is everything I loath about GB’16 distilled into one sequence. It goes on too long, is cringe worthy and is completely unnecessary. Imagine Dean Yeager from GB1 mugging the camera like this? I don’t want to turn this into a GB’16 hate thread, but it’s just I saw you reference that scene and couldn’t help myself. It just amazes me how anyone could find that scene funny. It’s cinematic the equivalent of “LOOK AT ME! SEE! LOOK WHAT IM DOING OVER HERE!”

I just can’t get over how crazy that business was. The internet VS Ghostbusters reboot. What a ride.

Anyways, I trust Reitman the Younger. I dig his style. It’s dry, grounded and never over the top. He isn’t into the Apatow Riff improv style that was part of GB’16s undoing. This is a great choice. Also, I LOVE Monster House. Didn’t Gil Kenan do “City of Ember” as well? That was a decent little movie(with Mr. Murray to boot). Plus he’s a friggin legend over at Disney.

At this point I could care less if Bill Murray is in this or not. That’s the truth. I don’t want another half ass, lazy Bill Murray performance. I’m fine with Dan & Ernie doing their thing. I just hope they make Egon’s notable absence a joke worthy of Mr Ramis. Something like he was working on a “Quantum Tunneling” experiment and his body was sucked/ripped into 7 different planes of Space Time at once. “Right now we think a piece of his nose might be in Ancient Rome, around 23 CE. Or his pinky toe. It’s either his nose or his pinky toe. We can’t be sure. But his Left Ear is on the moon, that much we can be sure of. Did I say “the moon”? Sorry. I meant “A moon”. Possibly one of Jupiters”. Ray Stanz checks sheet of paper “Or Saturn”.

Monster House was tight!

Really liked that one as well.

I doubt they could get Weller back. He’s made it pretty clear the last few years he’s tired of even talking about RoboCop. At his age, he’s probably not to eager to wear the suit again either. Of course they could use CGI, but even with the remake they still used a live suit. The only other way to avoid that is have Weller do voice and face capture on another actor.

Richardless i’m buying you a crunch bar. We rarely agree on anything but i’m with you on this one. While I liked ATC that was the one scene that really bugged me.

It’s never too late to give Monster House a sequel.

I have no critique on anything surrounding this… just a massive giant universal resounding

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

Finally!

This is so great!

I’m gonna cry. I’m gonna throw up. I’m gonna cry and then I’m gonna throw up!

I’m so goddamn excited I don’t know what to do!

I can’t stop smiling. This is the greatest news I’ve heard in so long. I’m a bit emotional about the whole thing.

Yeah. That was ■■■■■■■ spectacular. That’s the way to build it

I am effing over the moon at this news. The past 24 hours have been mindblowing.

To be honest I would have expected this big of an announcement to be at Fan Fest. This is insane!

It’s real! Something is actually happening!

The fake title “Rust City” is so much more awesome now.

I know its just early image bait, but could that barn be on Ray’s family plot?

“My parents left me that house…I was born there!”

What will be 18 years later I’ll have to eat my words I guess. bends over

I think you’re onto something FoS. Venkman did say that he wasn’t going to lose the house. Hopefully We see at leat Ray and Winston still with the company as senior admin with a cameo from Bill as CEO of GBI. I’d take a Maurice LaMarche voiced Ghost Egon

Oh my god! Oh my god! Oh my god! It’s actually happening! I love it! Oh man, oh man, oh man. I can’t believe it! Alright! Gotta run, got a date with ghost!
