Its truly a great lose. His movies made up the better part of my childhood. Ghostbusters will always be one of the biggest parts of my best childhood memories.

I cant count all the times I would say those famous lines from GB and Caddyshack.

Those films are pure gold. I wish the would still make films like that.

RIP Mr Ramis and thank you for giving me so many great films. That take me back to a much better time and place.

It wouldn't hurt as much if he wasn't such a talented and funny man with such a great personality.

But he was and it does.

Not an exact quote, but:

"Didn't you have a Slinky when you were a kid, Egon?"

"We did, and I straightened it."

Rest in peace, Harold Ramis. Condolences to his family, friends, and many admirers, which I have been since his days with SCTV.

They say Bill Murray read the script for part 3 and literally put it in a shredder. As for the other guys, I heard they didn't want to do it if original director Ivan Reitman wasn't on board, and he wasn't, apparently. Now with Ramis' passing, it does not look good, for the original ones anyway. It may happen someday as more of a re-boot than a sequel, and were that the case, the best we could probably hope for would be cameos from the then-surviving original cast members, and none of them (or us!) are getting any younger. Maybe they can get Wes Anderson to do it, and then they'd have a shot at getting Bill Murray since he's in most of his other movies.
