Movie News - Office Writers to Pen a New Ghostbusters Thu Sep 4, 5:17 PM PDT

If there's something strange in your neighborhood, it's probably because Columbia Pictures is calling on Ghostbusters again. It's been years since it was still Columbia Pictures' highest-grossing film, but the studio's getting ready to revive it for a fresh franchise. Adding some insurance that the blockbuster begets box-office glory, Columbia hired The Office's coexecutive producers, Lee Eisenberg and Gene Stupnitsky, to pen the new script. The hope is that original cast members Harold Ramis, Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd and Ernie Hudson would return for the redux. While a cast reunion isn't yet official, some of the key players have lately been in close proximity to each other: Eisenberg and Stupnitsky just wrote Year One, which Ramis will direct.

Is a new, ghost-fighting franchise a good idea, or a ghoulish concept? " Anna Dimond

FAVORITE MOVIE #7...

GHOSTBUSTERS 2

(yes, TWO)

While I liked the original Ghostbusters, I absolutely LOVE Ghostbusters 2. I've seen this movie about 100 times, own the DVD, watch it whenever it's on TV.

L-O-V-E it.

I think it's far better than the first. And I'm undoubtedly the only person on earth who thinks that...(P.S. I also like Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey better than Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure - weird, right?)

I'm not entirely sure what it is about Ghostbusters 2 that I like so much. It's just a movie that I never get tired of watching. I think it's a great script - great dialogue. Funny movie.
