I was just doing a little research on “Ghostbusters III” and the reason that Dr. Ray Stantz won’t be able to catch ghosts by himself is that it isn’t only because of his age. It’s just that he has knee problems, he might be blind in one eye, he’ll be having hip issues and he’ll be too fat to fit into his Ghostbusters jumpsuit. Of course, things could always change with the script re-writes and all that stuff.
As you read here: http://ghostbusters.wikia.com/wiki/Ghostbusters_III
… the original idea was that they were gonna go for three young men and one young girl in their 20’s so obviously they changed it to 4 young girls instead.
Even though Bill Murray still hasn’t said anything on whether or not he’s gonna reprise his role as Peter Venkman, never say never. There’s still plenty of time for him to respond still. Dan said Bill is always welcome when he wants to. So if Bill says yes, it’ll probably be for a short role. I really do hope Bill signs on. It’ll definitely help the box office if he agrees to appear. Bill is just like the rest of us, he wants the third one to be good. He’s taking the script seriously. I hope Bill goes for it… we’ll have to wait and see. That’ll be cool to see Ray and Peter train the 4 girls together.
I’m a huge Ghostbusters fan. I’m only a fan of the first one. The first one is a classic. I didn’t like the 2nd one that much. The only scene I liked in “Ghostbusters 2” was when Louis Tully tried to defend the Ghostbusters by saying something like, “I was taken over by a dog and they helped me” and Egon responded with, “Very good Louis. Short but pointless”. That was the best scene of the whole movie but other than that, the film was trash. I can understand why people would be skeptical of GIII.
When Ray Stantz returns, he’ll be the same old crazy Dr. Ray. When the girls catch their first ghost, I can see Ray going nuts like, “WOW, that’s great!!!” Like he always does. Even though Dan haven’t played the character in a long time, I’m sure he’s gonna kill it. Dan did a great job voicing the character for the Video Game so he will be able to play the character well with no problem.
I like Dan Aykroyd. Always did. The guy is a legend and a comic genius. I’ve always admired his speed-talking skills which is what he’s most famous for.
Hopefully, they’ll finally start filming “GIII” in 2015. They’ve been wanting to do this movie since the 2nd one and glad they’re finally getting closer to finally making it.

I can see the story moving along and about 2/3 of the way through it they get into a jam and suddenly someone says “Anybody need a Ghost Buster?” and it’s Bill Murray. He helps out and suddenly he’s gone again. Sort of like a cameo.
Bill will probably end up getting a cameo… hopefully they write him a longer role, though if they can.

It would almost be too awesome if he had passed away and came back as a ghost.
Nah, that would be lame. They already killed Bill Murray off in “Zombieland”. They don’t need to do that again. If one of the Ghostbusters would turn into a ghost, it would make a lot more sense if they do that for Egon. Harold has passed away and a Egon appearance as a ghost would be a nice tribute for him.
