I know Bill Murray and Dan Akroyd have both 'given their blessing' to the project, but with Paul Feig directing and two known actors (but SNL stalwarts) amongst the main cast, not to mention the original film being a beloved film amongst many, I will take a lot of convincing about whether it's worth my time.
