I’m in a pissy mood and want to head off for the weekend on a good note, so I figured why not post something that’s just so cool it’s impossible not to smile.

If and when a third Ghostbusters were to arrive in theaters, we all know that they’ll rely heavily on CGI for the ghosts. Unearthed and hitting the web in a flurry is the following vintage video featuring puppet tests for Slimer! Piloted by Robin Shelby, below you can watch all sorts of behind-the-scenes goodness from Ghostbusters 2. Too bad juicy stuff like this never hit the DVD/Blu-rays — speaking of, I wonder if Sony will ever do a fresh transfer and fix that piece of sh*t floating around in stores? Mfffff, there go my happy thoughts…

The classic murder-mystery game Clue is headed back to screens both big and small, with Variety reporting this week that Sony is planning potential film and television adaptations.

Variety reports, “Hasbro Entertainment has closed a deal with Sony‘s TriStar Pictures and Sony Pictures Television for the film and TV rights for the beloved board game.”

“Sony is the perfect partner to adapt a property as culturally impactful and mystery-defining as ‘Clue,’” said Hasbro’s Zev Foreman and Gabriel Marano. “Nicole Brown, Katherine Pope, and their teams are tremendous creative collaborators and ideal partners to help us figure out after 75 years if it was Colonel Mustard in the conservatory with the candlestick.”

Clue was created way back in 1943 by Anthony E. Pratt, and the board game was of course notably turned into a feature film starring Tim Curry in 1985 and a mini-series in 2011.

Ryan Reynolds had more recently been attached to star in a remake for 20th Century Studios, while Fox Entertainment had been developing an animated series a few years back.

You can learn all about the making of the original Clue film in Who Done It: The Clue Documentary, which is now streaming on the Bloody Disgusting-powered SCREAMBOX!
