Ghostbusters 3 – are we going to call them?

Dan Aykroyd is still hopeful that Ghostbusters 3 will be made.  He seems confident that the third installment will start filming in Spring next year.  This film will apparently feature new, younger Ghostbusters taking on the mantle of protector against all things ectoplasmic from the original stars, although Aykroyd still isn’t sure if Bill Murray will be involved with the new film.

I’m not sure how I feel about this.  I love everything to do with Ghostbusters, even the old cartoon, and I’m glad they are considering continuing the story rather than completely remaking it. I do also wonder if the amount of time that it is taking to get this off the ground is a sign from above that the franchise should be left to rest in peace.

What do you think?  Would love to hear your opinions in the comments.
