Dan Aykroyd Says ‘Ghostbusters 3’ To Start In The Winter, Suuuure It Will…

Dan Aykroyd had “revealed” that the whole crew from the original “Ghostbusters” films is now on board the new sequel (including Sigourney Weaver and Ernie Hudson, though no official word about Rick Moranis yet)

and thinks the third installment of the franchise could begin production as soon as the winter. Then again, the writers Lee Eisenberg and Gene Stupnitsky haven’t even started the screenplay yet and Aykroyd — who lost the plot ages ago — is the most over-eager of all the “Ghostbusters.” If he had his way, they would be on “Ghostbusters 5” by now and the franchise would probably have been ruined beyond repair with his horrible, would-be, “Ghostbusters Go To Hell,” idea he wanted for “Ghostbusters 3” that Bill Murray and Harold Ramis passed on years ago.Anything Aykroyd says should and must be taken with a grain of salt.

It was a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away…

Seriously, this is the most ridiculous premise for a film ever. Plus the trailer amounts to, “Git ‘Er Done! Americaaans can make fain wain tooo!” and features Cali red necks that make Napa Valley wine good enough stand up next to French wine which baffles snooty oenophile and critic played by an insufferably British Alan Rickman.

Based on a true story, “Bottle Shock” chronicles the events leading up to the famous Paris Tastings of 1976, wherein Napa wines bested the exalted French wines in a blind tasting and put California wines on the map for good.
