Re: Ghostbusters 3 is a go!
Not sure what you mean, mic. Murray's taking a lot of low-profile movies because he likes the script and wants to make those movies with other talented people he appreciates and wants to work with.
Are you disagreeing with them not wanting to do it without him? Or him not wanting to do it?
I think it's more likely than not that the script isn't great. Ramis and Ackroyd and Reitman and those two guys from the Office who wrote the script and also wrote the Ice Harvest for Ramis to direct - well, those guys don't exactly have the best track record for the last 10-15 years.
Maybe you don't like Lost In Translastion - I don't love it as a whole myself, but parts of it are extremely charming - but at least it was different and interesting and you concede that it (I assume you meant this film) was an Oscar opportunity for Murray. Bill's also got RUSHMORE and The Royal Tenenbaums - both outstanding - and Get Low, which I loved. Of all the people involved in a potential Ghostbusters 3, Murray is the one guy I'd appoint as the arbitor of quality and taste and humor. The other guys have lost their edge. Like Eddie Murphy and George Lucas, they could use someone telling them something they've thought of could use a bit more work once in a while.
They wouldn't be writing this if Murray hadn't expressed an interest or at least openness to it. He's just looking for a movie worth doing, and that's a movie I'd rather hold out for!
