In the original script for Ghostbusters, Winston Zeddemore was intended to be the smartest and most capable of the Ghostbusters, a former Marine with multiple degrees and a Ph.D., making him more suited for the job than the founding three Ghostbusters.[2] However, in the final screenplay none of these qualifications were mentioned. The changes are discussed in detail in the commentary on the DVD of Ghostbusters, the explanation being Winston allowed the technobabble to be put into layman's terms.[citation needed]
However, the novelization of Ghostbusters mentions Zeddemore's service with the Marines prior to joining the Ghostbusters. Further, in Ghostbusters: The Video Game, while the Ghostbusters are on a mission in the New York History Museum, Zeddemore reminisces about the time he spent studying for his doctorate in the museum's Egyptology wing. (In context, it's unclear if Zeddemore studied for the doctorate prior to joining the Ghostbusters, or sometime between the events of the movies and the game's setting in 1991.)
Zeddemore is a religious man to some extent, saying in a discussion in Ghostbusters that he believes in God and "loves Jesus' style". While driving the Ecto-1 with Ray, he voices his thoughts that the sudden spike in ghost appearances might be a sign of the apocalypse, pointing out that while they have come to treat capturing ghosts as routine pest control, in a very real sense the dead are literally "rising from the grave".
The loud black woman caricature put me off.
this is going to be a nuclear bomb.
let's not to too far. The idea somebody threw out of a Franco, rogan, hill, and Robinson team would have been heat rocksi'll take this a step further... i don't even think a Ghostbusters movie with a cast I'd like would be good. this might just be a franchise that is past it's expiration date.

How did a random messageboard poster come up with multiple ideas in five minutes all better than some highly paid guys in suits who just decided to do a remake with womenI think there's ways to be more creative with the franchise.
Switch up the location. Have them in Japan going after some of those long haired Japanese women ghosts and others.
Have them in space investigating long abandoned space crafts. Maybe allude to the Alien franchise which brings a call back to Sigourney Weaver who was in both the Alien and Ghostbusters. She can do a cameo as both characters with her not acknowledging the fact that she's the same person playing 2 different people.
Do a cross over with Scooby Doo, this seems natural as fukk considering the material of both franchises. You can do a Ninja Turtles crossover too. I think it would work.
Put them in Hollywood and have them trying to contain ghosts of Hollywood's past. You can have classic movie stars as ghosts running wild. Marilyn Monroe, Alfred Hitchcock, Marlon Brando, Vincent Price, the Three Stooges, Marx Brothers, Charlie Chaplin, etc then eventually transition into them going after the ghosts of people like Richard Pryor, Leslie Nielsen, Robin Williams, George Carlin, etc.
^Do a sequel to that one and have them going after the ghosts of classic musicians. Mozart, Bach, Beethoven, etc and then do a smooth transition over to the ghosts of The Temptations(with Otis Williams cameo), Michael Jackson, Prince, David Bowie, Whitney Houston, etc.
For the last 2, respect wise none of the jokes would be about making fun of the actual people that died.
^I don't know how expensive that shyt would be though and a lot of this shyt isn't plausible at all but still
Not my cup of teaThat's naturally her brand of comedy though.
AVGN ain't fukkin with this bullshyt
SJW's not happy with this lol
Feminist going at AVGN now?
