A couple of months ago,on the old board,I posted a massive idea list for Ghostbusters 3,and I wanted to revise it and show you,so..here goes…
The Director=Ivan Riteman obviously.
The cast=They should bring everyone back that they can,Harold as Egon,Dan as Ray,Bill as Peter,Ernie as Winston,Sigourney as Dana,and Anne as Janine.I don't think they should bring back Rick as Louis.Louis didnt serve much of a purpose except to get in the way and be weird.They should have someone like Mena Suvari as Kylie,she played a good goth chic in “Loser”.As for Oscar,they should bring back the kid(s) who played him in GB 2.As for the patented Ghostbuster cameos.Those should include SNL cast members such as;Molly Shannon,Chris Kattan,Jimmy Fallon,David Spade,Collin Quinn,Tina Fey,and heck even Loren Micheals.John Goodman should be mayor.He was great in Blues Brothers 2000.Maybe even Steve Buscemi.
The plot=Instead of the “Buisness Hanging on by a thread” idea that has been rumored,how about a booming business? It's so busy that Egon and Ray have to look for some more help.Enter Kylie,who is a student at the college that egon teaches at halftime.Peter and Dana are married.Ray and Winston investgate around the city to see why they are so busy.They find that most of the huantings have eminated form the Staten Island garbage dump.They all go down to investigate and find that Gozer,who they thought was destryoed wasn't completely elimated.Gozer has been in a sem-heibernation state,gathering conserving power to bring the underworld to earth.The Ghostbusters devise a plan to use Dana and Louis brain tissue samples from the first encouter with Gozer.They turn the samples into a special energy,which they put into the proton packs,the plan is to overload Gozer with so much energy that it overloads and ceases to be,but they must do it in one mass attack,otherwise they load Gozer up with the power and Goazer absorbs it and becomes “nigh-omnipitent”.They go to the dump and begin the attack,they are greeted with many ghosts,even the head of the stay puft marshmallow man,they bust all the spooks and then face Gozer and suceed,barely.The end.
The Equipment=The usual Proton Packs,and Slime blowers.A slighty redesigned PKE meter,that looks like a cross between the old one and a palm pilot.The giga meter should come back as well.As for ol' Ecto 1,It should be less decked out then it was in GB2,lose the caution tape and the ad's on the car.Keep the signboards,but make them smaller,and the same goes for the satellite dish,bring back the Ecto-scopes.Make an Ecto 2,maybe a modifed PT cruiser.And of course,bring back the firehouse in it's original glory.
The logo=Keep the logo essentially the same,because that's the logo that made them famous.It was eevn used in both cartoons.Make a few modifactions,maybe him(he still doesn't have a name) have a smirk,and look a bit more menacing.
The soundtrack=A much debated item on the old boards.Ray Parker Jr. should do the theme again,with a few minor updates.Run DMC should do another song.Rob Zombie would be perfect for this kind of movie.Maybe even Blink 182.Xentrix did a Ghostbusters cover,so they should be in it.Kid Rock and No Doubt would also be good.
The rating=PG-13.It would be best,you can do a lot more with that kind of rating then a PG.
