This is why Bill Murray is legendary.


I felt Bill wanted to make this film as a mirror image to his own life. His brother gave him a gift for his Saturday Night Live success right up to 1984. As you can see has led now to 2015. He is famous and a complete legend. Maybe content like the character in the film learning about being a Buddhist taking his teachings to happiness and contentment for his brother playing that character in the movie saving his life and dying during battle. It's metaphoric.

Bill Murray threatened to pull out of Ghost Busters II if the studio didn't give him this role. It turned out to be a mistake. It almost sunk his career.
People who wanted to see Bill Murray didn't want this story and people who wanted to watch this story didn't want to see Bill Murray.
