Somebody brought up the idea of Palisades doing Ghostbusters toys on their board yesterday. Mike Horn himself even popped up and commented on it. You can find the conversation here:

Cool. Yeah, I emailed the info and links to Ken Lilly from Palisades to check it out. I think he's over product development.

:s The only way to bring back the ghostbusters populairity is to use good stories. Not those stories the've done with the real ghostbusters there wasn't anny plot in it. The art is great now we need an exiting maybe a little darker, big ghostbusting story.

Regards,

Robert.

Happy ghostbusting. :d

Since when did Ghostbusters ever fail?

Ghostbusters failed when:

-Ghostbusters II failed when it didn't meet box office expectations

-Extreme Ghostbuters failed to last more than one season (and didn't even last that long on certain network affiliates)

-The Real Ghostbusters failed once organizations such as the PTC and CMOA had their way with it.

The funny thing is even in those failed examples, there was alot of good:

-Ghostbusters 2, despite meeting Box Office Expectations, was still an excellent movie

-While Extreme Ghostbusters sucked and desereved to fail, the ghosts and the dark atmosphere of the show was great.

-RGB was fantastic untill they turned Slimer into a gimmick

As far as I know ‘Ghostbusters’ the franchise is still around. Not like it was in 1984, but it never ‘failed’. Had it, I wouldn't see t-shirts at stores or people responding to ‘who you gonna call’ by saying ‘Ghostbusters’.

Here… ‘ ’ …just because I used them so much in one paragraph
