The movie I wanted and would have paid to see? Something along the lines of 'daughters of the original Ghostbusters' would definitely be it.
In that case, I will put forward for consideration this pair of ideas I've had fermenting for some time now...
First, do a proper sequel... a decade or two after the second movie, wherein the OGBs (less Egon, seeing as Raimis is no longer with us) realize that it's high time they train up their successors, as it were... one of which could be a daughter of theirs. This would have the additional benefit of world-building - we'd be able to explore how the state of the art of paranormal investigation and elimination has advanced, considering that they won't be the only interested folks...
Or... back in the original movie, Peter noted the franchise rights would be worth a pretty penny (and if I recall right, the pen-and-paper RPG and some of the older computer game treatments had as conceit that the players were a franchise!). You could go with this - not only presenting an all-new team, but freedom of setting. Consider the paranormal potential of someplace like Los Angeles, or Miami, or New Orleans...
