“Ghostbusters 3″ Gets New Writers

The Ghostbusters, never imagining they'd still be wrestling with this thing in 2012.

Have you been wondering what’s been going on with “Ghostbusters 3,” other than Bill Murray flipflopping over whether he’s in or out? Well, even if you haven’t been thinking about it, here’s some news to make you wish you had been more focused on it. Dan Aykroyd told WIVB that they’ve hired new writers to work on the script. Lee Eisenberg and Gene Stupnitsky had written a draft of the script that was supposed to include the original Ghostbusters while introducing a “new generation.”

Aykroyd told WIVB “We’ve got a new writing staff working on it now. It’s got to be perfect. That’s the whole thing. There’s no point in doing it unless it’s perfect. So that’s what we’re up to now.”

ComingSoon quotes Murray as previously saying, “You just have to have a really good script, you know, it’s hard. I think, you know, we’ll try again.”

Yes, a good script, kind of important? Is this movie really going to happen? It doesn’t seem likely, and I don’t think that’s a bad thing.
