Harold Ramis Dishes on Ghostbusters 3 For 7 Minutes![]()
Even though he's been out lately promoting a terrible, terrible movie-- Year One, in case you were lucky enough to miss it-- Harold Ramis is still the kind of guy you want to talk to forever. He's full of great stories-- when we talked to him, he dished on how he could have fixed his 80s flop Club Paradise-- and he's also willing to talk freely about his most anticipated upcoming project, Ghostbusters 3.
For whatever reason, the site Making Of got access to Ramis for a good long while, and he spent 7 minutes talking about what he wants for Ghostbusters 3, the film he's working on with his original Ghostbusters counterparts as well as The Office writers Lee Eisenberg and Gene Stupnitksy. And he admits that there are lot of bad precedents for long-anticipated sequels. "Certainly the last Indiana Jones to me was like a disaster," Ramis admits. But he says there's not motivation in his Ghostbusters team to just get in it for the paycheck. "You could reap the reward, we could do anything, and we'd all make some money probably. But no one wants to do that. We don't need the work, we don't need to do it. The public, if they only had two Ghostbusters, we'd all be fine. But if we're gonna do it, it's impossible to say we want to be better than the first one, but who knows?" It's really encouraging to hear all this from Ramis, even if all the best intention won't actually be able to keep the movie from turning out badly. Ramis has had no trouble making awful movies in recent years; I'm just hoping that, with all of this goodwill intact, Ghostbusters 3 may not be one of them. Check out the interview embedded below and see if you think he means it. |
