Murray, who just turned in one of the greatest cameos of all time in SPOILER, was interviewed outside the premiere of his new movie: Wes Anderson’s FANTASTIC MR. FOX, where he plays a Badger.
Watch the interview below…
So according to Murray there is no script yet. And even if there was, he hasn’t agreed to be in it. He didn’t say he wouldn’t, but his distain for sequels is apparent. He was disappointed in GHOSTBUSTERS II and the GARFIELD sequel, so he says the script would have to be really good to get him off the couch.
There is good & bad there. Good in the sense that if it gets made, we won’t be disappointed in quality. Bad in the sense of their in-ability to get it made. I really want to see another one, but not if it’s gonna be like the Indiana Jones debacle.

Let's hope that the script they churn out is up to his standards; because a Ghostbusters without Murray is like, actually there is no proper analogy; No Bill Murray is quite possibly the worst thing ever.

I'm sorry you feel that way about Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of The Crystal Skull I personally love that movie and think that it was everything that it should have been and needed to be! It was an ATOMIC AGE PULP film! Plain and simple ... it exploited that perfectly and purposefully and for people who can't understand the flawless execution of it's brilliance ... I feel sorry!

Woah now. I'm full aware of why they did what they did, but the execution is my exact problem. I have no problem with the Ailens or Commies. My problem lies with Lucas. The CG groundhog or the fucking monkeys? Really? Come on.

can't they just throw alot of money at him like Garfield did???....I absolutely agree with Kronner on Indy...what was the point of the groundhog?

First and foremost: Thank you Bill "FUK'N" Murray for everything you are, do and say! I truly love you. Secondly, Fisticufflinks!!! How is it possible for a man to exposed to radiation bomb and walk away completely unharmed? Why are there aliens in Indy 4 all while Raiders condones that there is a so called God? It breaks the continuity! Why does Shia swing like Tarzan?

...what the fuck is up with those stupid CG gophers? I'm not saying i hated the film, but i was GREATLY disappointed! and it was NOT "everything that it should have been and needed to be"!

I think George Lucas had Star Wars on the brain when he made Indy. It just did not have an Indiana Jones feel to it. You deal enough with aliens Georgy boy, I was pretty disappointed with the movie. And yeah no kidding with the Beef, no human being can just up and swing like that without being a gymnast. I know its a fantasy film, but I thought it was supposed to be somewhat realistic. Kind of like Die Hard 4, they were supposed to be humans, but no, getting slammed into trash bins from rocketin

rocketing cars, getting hit dead on by a truck and getting up? flying up mechanical shafts like spider monkeys? It just looked stupid.

Kronner Man ... o.k. So, fair enough ... you got it. I loved the prairie dog (not gopher). It's called injecting humor ... all the Indy movies use the device of humor. The monkeys ... once again ... HUMOR! They even had POMPS ... How can you not like a monkey with a pomp? It was Hilarious. They ended up being his "POSSE"! It was mindless PULP ACTION HILARITY! Just plain fun. Like ALL INDY MOVIES! OVER-THE-TOP FUN! None of them are reality based.

DEATHDEALER It's not possible for a man exposed to that kind of radiation to live. This isn't reality. It's a movie set during the time of ATOMIC PULP/ATOMIC SCI-FI ... That was the point of the whole film. It was a period/genre film. Aliens ... once again ... ATOMIC SCI-FI period film. Your God theory is disproven by "Temple of Doom" if you think (for some unknown reason) that it breaks continuity. Thuggee Cults using magic? Remember?

No Break IN CONTINUITY ... Just something adding to the Indy Universe. And anyway, even Christianity doesn't say that their aren't other lives on other planets. Why would a God talk about other planets with other races when speaking specifically to one planet about their souls? He wouldn't! (but that's all stupid nonsense anyway) Not Gopher ... PRAIRY DOG! ... HUMOR ... they are cute and funny ... eyegrabbing ... not everything in a movie has to make
sense.

MUNKRAWK I already addressed all of your Indy problems ... but then you have to go and throw LIVE FREE DIE HARD into the mix. Step I would step down on that one. Because you are going to lose that battle my friend. And that ain't gonna be solely because of me. I believe Dr. Kronner will have words about that too. LIVE FREE DIE HARD was one fuel injection of AWESOME followed by another. I don't go to movies to see life. I get enough of that. I go for entertainment and

I should probably Address the topic at hand now ... Ghostbusters 3. I don't think it's a good idea to do one. Bill Murray said some intelligent things. Most important. The Original Film is GENIUS! The sequal didn't work as well, but is still fun to watch. A third would probably not merit the same kind of fun. But It Might if given the proper Idea and cast. So, I'm leaning toward don't do it ... even though my heart remembers how good they can be.

haha yeah I guess it was easy to get me wrong there, I fawkin loved Live Free or Die hard. I was just using it to point out, the other Die Hard movies had a realistic setting with crazy extra ordinary things happening. Then they went to a completely unrealistic platform. Again, I LOVED that movie!!! haha

DIE HARD 4 = FUCKING SWEET.
INDY 4 = CRAP.
I have no problems with the Aliens. If the Ark can melt faces, Mola Ram can rip out hearts, and Knights can live 1000 years then there can be UFOs. I wanted less CG and less of a Phantom Menace feel. Forget the radiation poisoning, the blast inside of the fridge would have scrambled Indy inside of there. All the movies had humor, but the fucking monkeys were over the top stupid. I could've forgiven everything before it, but the monkeys we

were too much.

hahaha ... well, fair enough! But I thought the monkeys were pretty cool. I to don't like too much CG! But Thought That Indy's CG was o.k. I wish the Ants were real or looked less glassy/glossy ... but other than that I loved the movie. Sorry you didn't like it, brother. But ... We can agree our tastes, while similar, differ in some regards.
