I like it...Ok, here's the plot. It would've worked waaaaay better if had come out before December 21, 2012.
Modern Day New York. The Ghostsbusters are old. There aren't a lot of ghosts anymore. Business is slacking. But then something happens: ghosts start showing up everywhere. It all seems to coalesce with the Mayan doomsday prophecy.
The Ghostbusters go in on a routine mission, but get their butts handed to them. They realize they're just too old these days, so they decide to hire and train a new team of Ghostbusters.
The new team would consist of Vince Vaughn, Dave Chappelle, Jack Black, and Jon Heder (Napoleon Dynamite). I'm thinking Will Farrell, Steve Carell, and Stephen Colbert could do side-roles or cameos.
Ok, so, they train and equip this new team with modernized ghost gadgets, a new Ecto-1, etc. Ecto-2 possibly? LOL. The team goes on its first mission (which has something to do with the Mayan prophecy), fail miserably, and get captured or something akin.
The old Ghostbusters learn of this. What to do, what to do? They don their old, aged, possibly no-longer-working gear, bust out the old Ecto-1, and go out to rescue the noobs.
There would be ghostbusting and hi-jinks along the way, but the finale would be both teams joining together to defeat the Mayan god of death. Apocalypse averted!
But since we all lived through the Mayan doomsday, it wouldn't work as well. :-(
I like it...
...but Jon Heder would have to die. Preferably in the intro to the movie. Justin Beiber could play his replacement.
...and also die.

But we need a nerd for the Egon role.
This thread is a total bummer. I was expecting a video of cats falling off of stuff or a link to a free online version of Mario Kart or a discount code for Ginsu knives.
Such as where the original thread that you made this thread to point out that you made that thread... is.
Uh... Uh... Ray smoked in the original film! He's wheezy so Egon invents him an atomic-powered mod! Hilarity ensues!
Nostradamus is a no-brainer really, you can always twist the predictions around to be something you want.
So how are you going to work vaping into the movie (and save this thread)?
ETA: And I know this is a movie by fanboys, for fanboys, but...ummm...shouldn't there be a pretty girl in it? Like Nostradamus's great, great, great, great, great granddaughter? Actually, that might be cool - she could be French an' stuff.

I don't know. All the "pretty girls" I admire are in their 40's/50's. All these new girls look exactly the same. I honestly couldn't think of one actress under the age of forty I would recommend.
his "predictions" are so vague anyways that they can imply anything at all you'd like. I made a point to study them a few years ago. My conclusion was that he did for bullcrap what stonehenge did for rocks.
just sayin'.
Am I gonna get in trouble for hijacking this thread?
