Is it gonna have the OG cast members? If so, I’m in.

Oh wait, Harold Ramis is dead. Umm...

Apparently the entire cast are returning including Sigourney Weaver, Rick Moranis and Annie Potts and Alyssa Milano might even be in it too as Ilyssa since Dan Akroyd said the 2009 game is part of the official continuity and the movie they were planning on making before Harold passed away had Alyssa in it along with Anna Faris, Eliza Dushku and Paul Rudd as Oscar who the original team were training to be the new Ghostbusters. From what I have read they will be going with something very similar but they will be training teenagers to be the new Ghostbusters instead of adults. I am looking forward to seeing it and Dan talked about it in interviews last year and people dismissed him and now it is officially happening and Dan said they were going to explore the Ghost World and some of the more demonic types of ghosts we saw in the game and they were originally supposed to go into the Ghost World in the first movie but they changed his script. Did you know the original script Dan wrote for 'Ghostbusters' was a full on serious Horror movie but Hollywood changed into an Action Comedy much like they did with 'The Mask?' I think it works better with some Comedy elements but I would like to see more Horror in this movie like we saw in the 2009 game.

I’d like to see more horror as well. Of course I like to see some comedy too, but this could be the chance to tell a serious GB story. The plot though does sound cliche. How many times have we seen older characters train the younger generation?
