Murray impedes 'Ghostbusters 3'
LOS ANGELES — Sony has never been able to mount another installment in the "Ghost busters" franchise. If there's always one fly in the ointment, it's Bill Murray.
It seems pretty much everyone else involved with the project has a vested interest in making a "Ghostbusters 3." But everyone seems to want his blessing.
If you're laying odds, I'd say the odds of Murray giving his blessing to a new "Ghostbusters"sequel are as good as the odds of Sandra Bullock getting back together with Jesse James.
