Hit 1980s comedy star ponders comedian. Actor Bill Murray, who’s working on a third sequel to the 1980s comedy Ghost Busters, says it would be fun to have a lady join the comedic team of characters who battle evil spirits as hired exterminators. Murray also says comedian Chris Rock is “funny” and has been discussed as a possible member of the new Busters cast. Veteran actor Ernie Hudson co-starred in the original mega-hit and sequel, while singer Bobby Brown recorded a chart-topping tune, “On Our Own,” for Ghost Busters 2.
I loved Ghost Busters : )
I would think it’d great to have a story about the life of Ernie Davis if that was what the movie was really about. I haven’t seen the movie yet but how come his hometown gets no recognition? The place where he started did play an important role in making him who he was. Syracuse did not encourage and mold him into the person he became. He brought that with him from his family and community he grew up in… ELMIRA NY! We have a whole middle school named after him. We honor him every year. Anyone born here knows the TRUE story or Ernie Davis. From the reviews of the movie…. it’s not even about Ernie Davis… IT’S ABOUT THE COACH AND THE COLLEGE!!! I’m still going to see the movie but I already know that they’re using our precious Ernie Davis’ name as a front for the real focus of the movie… Syracuse University and RACIST 1950’s AMERICA! I’ll be sure to write a true review after I see to movie.
