More Ghostbusters films are in the works says Director Gil Kenan, new details on upcoming Netflix series - Ghostbusters News

In a new interview with The Direct, Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire Director Gil Kenan confirmed that more Ghostbusters films are being worked on.

“The answer is yes,” adding that both he and Reitman “take the responsibility and the joy of being the keepers of the flame of Ghostbusters very seriously… we definitely are continuing the conversation of telling big Ghostbusters stories on the big screen. And stay tuned. There’ll be more. There’ll be more about that later.”

Frozen Empire made over $200M and was a huge hit when it went to Netflix, so no shit Sony is going to keep the train moving.

Ya para que...

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

They must have made them in the 90s or 2000s. Time has already won them. Again, if there was the original cast it is the essence of the movie...

Ghostbusters are icons because of the original actors, without them...

The franchise does not exist.

 

[AJUMP23]

They are serviceable but not very good.

 

[willothedog]

$200 million gross so they are still in the red.

 

[Badlucktroll]

We should have gotten a real ghostbusters 3 in 93-94ish

 

[Hookshot]

Was the new one any good? The Paul Rudd one was just a retread in a different location. The women one was dire, more childish and yet not at all funny.

 

[Spyxos]

I've been trying to watch frozen empire on netflix for 4-5 days now, but I just can't manage more than 15-20 minutes at a time. I didn't think the predecessor was that bad, even if it's not Ghostbusters. But the latest part is just boring.

They were in the last two movies.

We don’t take kindly to disrespecting Real/Extreme Ghostbusters around here!

 

[GymWolf]

Even more reasons to watch the only 2 good, original movies then.

No, it was pretty bad actually. They tried to cram way to much into it and nothing feels fully baked as a result. It also has that Marvel kind of stink where you can tell it's not a real movie, but rather just an advertisement for the 7 other upcoming movies they want you to see.

Por eso .

That are the real Ghostbusters and the movie actors

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

John Marston Thank you for the gift .

 

[Revolutionary]

If you had told child me that there would be a time when the name "Ghostbusters" would make me roll my eyes, I wouldn't have believed you.
Thanks, Sony!

 

[Dr.Morris79]

Just think. In around ten years time the word 'originality' probably won't exist.

In a hundred it'll look like a hieroglyph.

Creatively bankrupt is the phrase that came to mind reading this thread title.

[Melon Husk]

This franchise needs busting

 

[WhiteWaterM00se]

I actually think Afterlife is the second best Ghostbuster movie. It was very enjoyable

 

[Werewolf Jones]

Is that a threat?

 

[JayK47]

Frozen Empire was not that great. Afterlife was decent. Paul Rudd is so milktoast. Am I to assume they will stick with the current characters? I'm afraid to see where this goes.

 

[GloveSlap]

I too have struggled to find the motivation to watch Frozen Empire. I think i'm good honestly. I didn't really like Afterlife at all, so if everyone is saying FE is worse.......

 

[BossLackey]

I've had absolutely zero urge to watch anything past the 2nd movie.

 

[K' Dash]

The game is the third movie, we got the full cast and the story was cool.

Anything after that is fanfic.

 

[VulcanRaven]

I'm glad they are making more. I really enjoyed Afterlife and Forzen Empire.

I wish we would get one movie with more horror. The Extreme Ghostbusters cartoon was scary:

 

[Krathoon]

The whole Bill Murray with the sunglasses in the last movie was dumb.

Time to move on with the new team.

 

[Krathoon]

Actually, I need to collect the Extreme Ghostbusters. I got The Real Ghostbusters.

 

[Krathoon]

What I wished they did was just recast the original cast of the Ghostbusters and continued the movies like it was the 80s.

 

[The Skull]

Got the humour just right as well:

 

[Krathoon]

On a side note. Amazon has He-Man for $11 now.

Ah. Crap. That was the new He-Man not the original. The original is $30.

 

[ResilientBanana]

Hopefully they go to truly ancient places in future outings.

 

[Davey Cakes]

With the new cast getting older I think they could move beyond the "young adult" feel of these movies and actually make something more akin to OG Ghostbusters. One can hope, at least.

 

[GateofD]

The Ghostbusters game that was on PS3 (and I think remastered later one) is a perfect GhostBusters 3 movie in game form.

 

[analog_future]

Clearly a bunch of old dudes in this thread.


My 11 year old just watched through all of these films and loved the whole series, Afterlife being her favorite.

 

[Just_one]

Afterlife and Frozen Empire were pretty good , i love them.

specially Afterlife
