I said it in another thread but I thought it was a question that should be in it's on. If Sony never gives us GBIII, what if another company like Warner or Universal brought out a movie like it about paranormal eliminators but just changed the people's and title's name?! Could it wok?

Yes and no. The new movie can not be exactly like Ghostbusters but it can be little bit similar to it.

If it is too similar than they will get into trouble.

Unfortunately then it'd just be a ‘buncha rip-off Ghostbusters’.

Heaven knows, plenty of people feel that about Filmation's cartoon. :p

We can have Senkman Vgon Wtantz and Sinston. :p

How would they get into trouble with that.

Intersting. They COULD do this with the actors (minus Bill Murray) and rename them, similar. Then change the name. I could work and be a slap in the face of the other company. Would be funny as hell.

OH GOD!!!!!!!

It was even by the same director, I don't know what Ivan Reitman was smoking on.

He tried at another comedy about a group of people who catch supernatural begins(but i think it was aliens this time) and it flopped hard. It made 38 million and cost 80. I don't remember much else about it.

well come to think of it, maybe Sony put out Evolution as a test, thats why Ivan directed it. Maybe they did it to see how people would react to the genre in the 21 century. And it flopped in the BO, so they decided not to go with a GB3.

Hey… I enjoyed that film. (*egon)

The joke is that Evolution ‘was’ Ghostbusters 3.

What would it be if one day another studio then Sony would make a live action version of Filmation's Ghostbusters?
