Do you think that there should be a second Ghostbusters in the reboot series? I feel like this film was actually done fairly well. If you also imagine that the original movie had never been made, this would actually be a pretty fairly decent comedy. I liked it and I wouldn’t mind seeing more. Whats your opinion? ---

I’d like to see a sequel that expands the mythos and world of the reboot Ghostbusters, and smooths out the wrinkles of the first film. ---

I would like to see a sequel with an original story that doesn’t reference the original movie or [Ghostbusters 2](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/FAQ/ghostbusters-2). ie. doesn’t follow the same plot points in a paint-by-numbers Ghostbusters story. This iteration can’t stand on its own if it clings to the first two movies. Unless it has a way of merging the two universes. ---

Pretty hopefully and confident we’ll see Ray and Winston back. ---

Definitely want to see more. I was thinking the other day that they should consider adapting something similar to the Ghost Smashers story from the IDW series. Could be a cool way to set up a second franchise, create opportunities for a lot of unique busts, tons of new gear, and show us something we haven’t seen yet with Ghostbusters on film. ---

No I don’t think there should be a second movie in the reboot series. I think after waiting almost 3 decades we got a very mediocre reboot. While it wasn’t “OMG WORST FILM EVER” it most certainly wasn’t anywhere near what most people were looking for. I personally feel there is room for a MUCH better film out there. ---

Wouldn’t mind it. A soft reboot could help. ---

Two choices: -Animated feature film featuring the original busters -New live action movie, with a new team, new director that ties into the original Busters Feig had his shot, it didn’t work. I personally hated the movie, and even most of the good reviews were lukewarm(a weak B+ Cinemascore as well). The movie opened #2 in the US, and probably will never be profitable for Sony. A misfire in every sense. Feig and Melissa go back to low budget, profitable comedies, and leave Ghostbusters alone. ---

I would like to see one. But if the franchise isn’t going to make Sony any money, how is Sony going to go ahead and continue to make more movies? It just doesn’t make sense. I really hope this isn’t the end of Ghostbusters. I love the franchise (as most of us here) and I’m happy it’s back and in the spotlight again. I don’t want to see it dead and the franchise not seeing the light of day ever again. ---

They have to try a mixed team movie that ties into the original universe. A less dopey, gimmicky version would be ideal. ---

Now that we have the origin story out of the way, I would welcome another one of these. Especially if it does somehow tie to the original universe. I had read the article about how Ivan kind of dreads Dan’s Cabbie knowing all this info about Ghosts. He said something to the effect that He (Ivan). Now has to figure a way to explain it in the next film possibly. Like I said I look forward to the bombardment of more Ghostbusters 🙂 🙂 🙂 ---

Franchise the hell out of it. Set up three different teams, three different states, they all unite in the end to fight the big bad which doesn’t have to be something gigantic. It’s also a good way to get kids into history. Focus on popular wars like WWII, Civil War, maybe the Shangai tunnels in Portland. It would be something awesome to see Gun Fight at the Ok. Corral done in live action. No need for one sided politics or agenda’s. Just make it fun! ---

I like the Max Landis idea…and the idea that MIBs covered things up. They should use those concepts without discarding the New busters. ---

I was watching an AOL piece on the potential sequel about an hour or so ago, thinking “This is great, more Ghostbusters!” But then guess what happened? They ended the piece by taking a mean jab at [Ghostbusters II](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/games/ghostbusters-ii-activision). My mood did a complete 180 degree turn. Not a nice way to start your day. ---

I know we all want to see GB3 where the guys are training a new MIXED gender cast, but that would just be way to confusing for the general audience at this point right after the reboot was released. People would be wondering where the girls were. They could do this GB3 down the road like years later, but lets face it, they don’t have the time to wait anymore. We already lost Harold. I also don’t, though more likely, see just a straight sequel to this movie happening after all the backlash. At this point I would bet that what we get next is either a spin off set in the same universe (Chicago Ghostbusters featuring a team of guys and girls or whatever city. You get the idea) or a sequel where the girls encounter the OG’s via some dimensional rip storyline. Personally, I’d bet on the latter. Either way, I bet an announcement comes sooner rather than later. [Next page](https://forum.gbfans.com/t/second-installment-in-the-reboot-series/5351.md?page=2)
