I missed out on ZW2K6, but my buddy Taylor went – and found one of Vancouvers busters, in this case PeteVenkman_Jedi, who sent along this photo. Cooool.
Theatrical poster re-print
The latest issue of Previews catalogue, by Diamond Distributors, is offering a “Ghostbusters movie art poster”, which as it happens, turns out to be a reprint of the original theatrical poster for Ghostbusters. Check it out here, or at your local comic shop. The poster’s SRP is $7.25US.
Thanks to GozerJr for spotting this.
The company producing the poster is Pyramid Posters in the UK – they also have a variety of Ghostbusters mini-posters, postcards, stickers, and buttons available as well at their website. Thanks Seb for the info.
Aykroyd also talks GB3 – CGI?
Mike McGuire at CISN Country 103.9 in Edmonton got to interview Dan Aykroyd, who talked about GB3 as being in the talking stage, and the plan is for it to be CGI, sans Bill Murray and his likeness. So, some clarification is needed to make sense of these facts.
PART TWO IS THE GHOSTBUSTERS PORTION – however, the entire interview is great.
Thanks to Mike for the heads up – nice work man!
[UPDATE] Still working through the interview – it’s hard to listen while at work. But this is from Mike’s CISN blog post;
The hilight of the interview had to be when he confirmed that Ghostbusters III is in the works – albeit CGI, but Bill Murray has agreed to voice, so the authenticity (should) still be there!!!
Boy, aren’t Fridays like this exciting.
[UPDATE 2] Oh, and Mike. Stop sounding like me. Curse that Canadian twang.
[UPDATE 3] Nope, he’s talking about a movie. Seperate from the game. Still lots of details to fill in, and until a studio makes an announcement this isn’t official, but it’s very encouraging.
Transcript after the jump, thanks to Steve.

Aykroyd says he’s involved in GB video game.
Touring Canada with Jim Belushi as The Blues Brothers, Dan Arykoyd talked to the Edmonton Sun about a variety of things, one of which includes providing motion capture for a Ghostbusters video game, to be produced by VUE.
As such, he hasn’t much time left for Hollywood. Aside from a role in the Adam Sandler-starring I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry, due out later this year, Aykroyd says he’s pretty much done with acting after a fun, 30-plus year run.
He will, however, be revisiting the role of Dr. Raymond Stantz for a Ghostbusters video game.
“Universal purchased the rights from Sony for a game. I’m actually going to have to perform and do some motion capture for them. That will be next year.”
So, apparently VUE is going to publish the game – but does this mean Zootfly is going to be the developer? It now explains why Sony yanked the Zootfly videos from YouTube, but is it a thumbs up or a thumbs down for the Slovenian dev studio?
Big thanks to Chad Kerychuk
