What's your take on the upcoming third Ghostbusters film that's said to be in the works?

Murray has said he won't touch it and was quoted as saying something along the lines of, "Nobody wants to see fat old guys running around in jumpsuits."

Notwithstanding, they have a script completed and they're going to go ahead with anyways, Murray or not.

-It only works with Murray in it. Akyroyd is a mystery to me? Why do people think that guy is funny? He's been in some good movies, but they're rarely good because of his acting/performance. Harold Ramis is a very talented writer/director but he can't carry the weight in front of the camera, he needs support, he needs a funny man.... he needs Murray.

My guess is that without Bill, GB3 is a total shit show. I also think Murray is wise to steer clear. A sheer sign of irrelevance is to remake a movie 20 years later about how washed up you are. All one need do is point to Stallone as proof.

I'll give a free pass to Bruce Willis for the new Die Hards. Die Hard 4 was sweet, and I'll be the first in line for Die hard 5 on Valentine's Day. (What can I say? I'm a hopeless romantic.)

There is a new Die Hard? I was just talking with my wife about how much I like Bruce Willis. Murray spoke highly of him during his time working on Moonrise Kingdom. -I thought Bruce did the best of all the actors in that film. Let me know how the Die Hard movie is, I'd definitely see it. Are they somehow bringing back Alan Rickman?
