I just found my old notebook from when I was 9 and started writing a script for Ghostbusters 3 (don't worry safe for kids I very clearly rated it PG). I edited a lot as I wrote, the studio exec in my head demanded PERFECTION.
I think creatives tend to have Reasons for pursuing the arts. Ivan Reitman was one of my Reasons. A comedic genius who put heart into everything he touched. I wanted to one day thank him for his inspiration & giving me a reason to keep fighting. My heart is broken. Rest in peace.
I'm nervous when I am not writing a pilot because it feels like I'm being lazy but I'm nervous when I am writing a pilot because I'm fairly certain it's garbage, what a fun job I've chosen!
So my instinct is it's okay to post about Ghostbusters now that folks have had a bit of time to see it. Here are a few thoughts I had, but please be warned there are spoilers ahead!
Phoebe is an amazing character who does a beautiful job of upholding Egon's legacy.
It would be
very strange to find out at last where these characters I've loved for so long ended up, and it's going to take quite a few more viewings for me to completely process that knowledge, but I feel a weird sense of peace about it. A heartfelt thanks to the cast and crew
I am good for one thing and that thing is irritating magicians into revealing their secrets, okay to be fair I've never done this but I'm pretty sure I'd be amazing at it.
I am shocked to be able to say that I'm represented at Gersh as of last night! My brain is trying to wrap itself around this fact but I'm very psyched to have such an amazing team going into the new year.
