Ghostbusters will now be rebooted with female team, no ties to original

It seems that Sony is fed up waiting for a Ghostbusters 3 (not that the death of Harold Ramis earlier this year helped.) Sony is pushing forward with a new director Paul Feig (The Heat), and now has a writer, The Heat‘s Katie Dippold.
The film will now be an entire reboot of the franchise, with reportedly no ties to the original team or movies. And this time, it will be a female buddy comedy, with a whole new team of female leads.
I’m all for it, but it’s going to be hard not to think back to Venkman, Spengler, Zantz and Zeddemore.
