this is how I always saw it going, the guys being in the flick, but handing the reigns over to a new group of Ghostbusters. Maybe their family members or something like that.

Could be a massive comedy movie if all stated are involved. I'd see a GB movie in the theaters no matter what, but this approach is definitely interesting and could work well. If the video game does well you can get the financing won't be a problem from Sony.

That's awesome news. I was talking with a buddy of mine yesterday actually about this and we both agreed that the best thing to do get a new ghostbusters squad as long as the originals were in it to at least pass the torch I think people will be all for it. There isn't a funnier combo than Judd Apatow's misfit bunch. I can see Seth Rogen, Jonah Hill, Michael Cera, Justin Long, and Romany Malco. If not Michael Cera then def. Paul Rudd.

Hmmm I'd see it, but like all of you, only if the original team is in it to pass the torch. As to who could do a good job as the new team though? thats what i'm not sure on, MAYBE Jack Black could be good, and if he can do an american accent I'd liek to see Simon Pegg (Shaun Of The Dead). But hopefully they wont just use the guys from Knocked Up and the other movies they made, i wnat to see more diversity in the cast

With the exception of Stallones newest installments in his franchises (Rocky and Rambo). You can pretty much bet that any new sequel/reboot/remake is going to be something different than what its predacessors where in terms of feel.
It helps that Stallone has control over his two franchises. Which is why he was able to take the characters and improve upon them with quality simplistic stories. Less is more basically and Stallone did just that with his franchises. Say what you want about him as an actor or his career. However he atleast put together two quality farewell movies for his series.
Whereas what do you see from all these other series that have since had a sequel years and years later aka Die Hard 4, Indy 4, etc. They went a bit of a different route, the fanboys got irked and that was that.
Stallone stayed true to his series of films.
Ghostbusters 3 for all intent and purposes will be a different film than its predacessors. The style in which the first film was made was timeless. Like so many other 80s movies, it was an epic in filmmaking and storytelling. You cant replicate that kind of success. I also find hard to believe that Ramis, Akroyd (spelling) and Murray will have complete control over the film and the film will be made to be carried by the new Ghostbusters. The old fanboys will be disappointed in that while the studios aim for a newer fanbase with more current comedians.
At the end of the day, my rant is basically saying the obvious which is something I end up doing often. Ghostbusters 3 will not be the same as its predacessors as much as me or anyone else may want it to be.

Half of the original cast has been in favour of another, no one ever seems to ask Ernie Hudson, and Bill Murray has been against doing another live action (or so the stories go).
That said, I agree. Unless the right cast was pulled together to 'take the reigns' so to speak I would prefer everyone just follow Murray's idea and leave well enough alone. No need to redeem us for putting out GB2 this long after.
OMG! Step away from the forum drama, NOW!

Here's a update...
Ghostbusters Back in Business
Office scribes set to script for original cast.
by Jim Vejvoda
September 4, 2008 - After a two decade absence, the Ghostbusters finally appear ready to return to the silver screen. Columbia Pictures has tapped the Emmy-nominated writing team of Lee Eisenberg and Gene Stupnitsky (co-executive producers of The Office) to pen the screenplay.
What's more, Variety reports that the new script will be "for a film designed to bring back together the original cast of Harold Ramis, Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd and Ernie Hudson." (There were rumors years ago that Ghostbusters 3 would revolve around a younger set of GBs instead.)
The trade adds, "No deals will be made with the original cast until the script is ready, but the gross percentage will certainly be an issue. Sony has a standing policy not to allow more than 25% of first dollar gross out the door."
Harold Ramis recently directed the Sony comedy Year Zero, which was scripted by Eisenberg and Stupnitsky.
