No Ramis or Murray in 'Ghostbusters'? How about Christopher Walken?


The 1984 film "Ghostbusters" is 30 years old and the sequel was 25 years ago! Somebody has to step up to fill the void left by Gozer the Gozerian and Vigo the Carpathian - so how about CHRISTOPHER WALKEN?

Talk of a series reboot or sequel and the loss of the great Harold Ramis (RIP) means handing the torch to a new generation of paranormal investigators and eliminators is inevitable (love it or hate it). One upside is that this means the new team will have to face off against a new bad guy!

"The Deer Hunter". "The Dead Zone". "A View to a Kill". "King of New York". "True Romance". "Pulp Fiction". In these and countless other memorable roles, the uber-versatile Walken has proven beyond a doubt that he has the gravitas to hold his own against the boys (or girls) in gray. Whether he's dancing up a storm in a Spike Jonze video, adding more cowbell to SNL, or hosting his own cooking show on Funny or Die, Christopher Walken dominates. This comedic force of nature could raise the bar on the next installment of the franchise to that of Biblical Proportions...

So please share this petition with anyone you know who loves "Ghostbusters", Christopher Walken, or the idea of BOTH! Perhaps if Sony, Amy Pascal, Ivan Reitman, Dan Aykroyd, and others decision-makers see this they might agree!
