Meedyah Morsels #85.


"All right, let's talk Ghostbusters 3", Part 2.

Or "Ghostbusters: RGB references in______", part 3.
(Part 1, Part 2)



All right, back when we knew nothing, I predicted the plot to Ghostbusters 3 would most closely resemble "Extreme Ghostbusters", and/or "Sanctum Of Slime".

Nope, the new Busters are little kids, so actually, it's more like the Junior Ghostbusters from RGB's "The Bogeyman Is Back" and "Halloween II 1/2".


Yep, the cartoon really did everything.

Y'know, I always found it weird they just didn't grow up the Junior Ghostbusters, and have them be the Extreme Ghostbusters.

...but just as weird, they had one episode with one little nerdy fanboy who was their Junior Ghostbuster, and he just disappears, and gets forgotten about in favor of these other three.

Where did he go?
Where did the other three go?

My morbid fan-fiction?
They all died in school shootings, and came back as ghosts, and got busted.
*Sob* *Sniffle*
It gets you right here *thumps chest*


Okay, so that's the RGB connection part, now the speculation part.

Fans online have assembled various pieces of info, and determined that Jason Reitman is pouring over lost GB1 footage found in a vault in a salt mine which shows he's either gonna splice these lost scenes in as flashbacks un-altered, or he's gonna Frankenstein them into brand new scenes with CGI, or a little of both.

SO, assuming that's true, various of the cast members might not actually physically be in it, but will be there only in old/altered footage.

AND, assuming THAT is true, that may be why they've been so evasive and cheeky about being in the film.

If some of them are only gonna be in it in clips, then "they've read the script", is really all you need for them to give approvals.

So, maybe this thing is going to be an alternating of flashbacks and present day that eventually comes together like "Memento".
OR, maybe it'll be a "Back To The Future II", type deal.

That'd be really fucking cool.
I'm even more excited for this thing now.
