Dan Aykroyd Prefers Wii Graphics, Laments Gut
Infendo - Nintendo blog —
... his portrayal on the Wii better than on competing “high-performance” consoles: I love the way we look in the Wii platform, because it resembles the animation that was done in “The Incredibles.” Anybody who looks like an Incredible is automatically a superhero. And I was so pleased that they shaved off at least 60 pounds from my current bulk. The boys look good. We resemble the actors who were in the first movie.

... might be a sequel to this. I think now you have them acting hand in hand. It's interactive, if you will. So the third movie, whether it's a reality or not, I'm sure a concept for a game will come out of that, and then that game may feed the story for a fourth one." Now we just have to hope that Hollywood doesn't muck it all up by calling the third movie "Ghostbusters 3."
