what if the EGB thing had to be applied to GB3? what kind of damage could be done if they have teen-appealed actors in this thing?

i shiver at the thought.

Some of em wouldn't be bad, but a cast of Freddie Prinze Jr., Maculay Culkin, (LOL! Wouldn't that be rediculous?) and Justin Timberlake in his acting debut would just be insane and make us GB fans have to set something on fire.

Teen actors can't act. Hollywood has no more respect for people who have worked years to become famous. Now today any good looking person can become famous just because they look good. Acting skill or talent doesnt matter anymore.

I was just thinking about this the other day.

Let's say that “Ghostbusters 3” was produced by the same people that gave us “American Pie”, for example. The script would be written by a “teen comedy film” expert. The cast would be the “big” names among young actors right now (take your pick of ‘em, it doesn’t really matter for the purposes of this theory.) Harold Ramis and Dan Aykroyd have very small cameos in the beginning. The “new” Ghostbusters would tool around busting spooks in a lowered white Cadillac Escalade, bumpin' the $2,000 Sony Xplod stereo system. There would be sight gags and filthy humor galore. The words “From the People who Brought you American Pie!” would prelude the trailers and be plastered all over the movie posters.

The movie would probably be a runaway smash hit. Why? Because young people/teenagers would flock to see it. Sure, us Ghostheads would cry foul, but it wouldn't matter. Thrilled by the promise of more cashflow, Sony would probably release a “Ghostbusters 4” the following summer.

Sad, but probably true.

have you noticed that most teen movies have sequals made about a year after the first one came out? at the minimum, 2 years apart!

look at Scary Movie. stupid as hell, and it got a sequal in about a year and a half! it took GB2 5 years to come out, and something as stupid as Scary Movie got it in short order.

see this is were im getting at. stupid teen movies are around every corner, and anything with some kind of intelligents behind it is being shawned out of the pool of good movies.

Im sorry, but American Pie sucked to me (except for a few parts, of course) and i cant believe such a stupid movie got a sequal so quick.

More holy and truthful words were never spoken more than by these last 2 posts. It's refreshing to know that there are people who feel the way I do about American Pie, How High, Not Another Teen Movie, Scary Movie, and the like.

My respect for everyone here has just been tempered!

TEEN MOVIES ARE CRAP!!! FUNNY OR SAD THEY SUCK!!! Though EGB is more appealing to the younger people because of the younger GB deal. No chance that GB3 would be a teen movie, if any it would have to be like end of days or something

Nowadays comedies aren't funny anymore, they're just stupid. A real comedy is funny because it has talent. A comedy that is funny just because it's stupid has no talent because anyone can do it.

Teen films have ruined every genre they have touched. They have this Anti-Midas touch, everything they touch thurns to crap. Teen films have ruined my favorite genre which is horror. Then they ruined comedies, now that I hope they don't ruin Ghostbusters, if GB3 is a teen flick, I will never see that movie ever and deny that that movie ever existed, like I do with all teen movies.

I think there are plenty of funny comedians, it would just take the right assembly of casting, and it would have to be top notch and very funny comedians. (Chris Rock, Jimmy Fallon, Jack Black)
Maybe I should just add that to my signature lol.
