Those of you who know me know that I will unblinkingly watch GHOSTBUSTERS, and THE OFFICE, along with a few others of course. Those of you know GHOSTBUSTERS know the story of the never-made GHOSTBUSTERS III. If you don't here it is; DAN ACKROYD, writer of the original GHOSTBUSTERS movies, wrote a script for GHOSTBUSTERS III back in the mid 90's in which Hell literally breaks loose into NYC and the OG GHOSTBUSTERS have to train a NEW group of GBs to assist them in removing the beasts of hell from the world. This NEW group of GHOSTBUSTERS would have included (according to ACKROYD) CHRIS FARLEY and BEN STILLER. Turns out the budget was something big, like OPTIMUS PRIME big, big fucking robot big. So the studio passed, and the film never got made. ACKROYD writes another script, which evolves into a new semi-sequel GHOSTBUSTERS video game out this holiday, which if someone can pre-order for me would be rad. TODAY comes the OFFICIAL word that GBIII is INDEED happening with writers from THE OFFICE comissioned to write the script, which involves the ORIGINAL GB crew to return and catch ghosts in that thing that zip cord vacuum box. The guys who write THE OFFICE definitely have a knack for writing deadpan dialogue, which they'll need since it looks like BILL MURRAY is coming back, but hopefully they can make a niiiiice supernatural plotline as well. Either way, this looks like another movie I can't wait for. After THE DARK KNIGHT was over and the credits rolled i thought that nothing could build my cinematic anticipation ever again. I was wrong. Thankfully, I was wrong.
