[@AnyoneCanSee]

@@swirvinbirds1971 - It is perhaps the clearest case of plagiarism in music history. It isn't only the same melody it is an almost identical reproduction of his recording. The Ghostbusters theme uses identical instruments to recreate the track note for note. The only difference being the lyrics. Listen to the original. They must have sat in the studio trying to recreate every beat. The Ghostbusters theme is just a different set of musicians trying to recreate the exact same music. How they thought they'd get away with it I cannot imagine. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gXLHg4OojcmLirc

What About Ghostbusters 2 (1989)

[@Viking_Luchador]

@@Sarah_Gravydog316 Winston was a great character because he wasn't just "the black ghostbuster", he was the normal guy the audience could relate to and see themselves as (Venkman may have been closer to Earth than Ray and Egon, but he was still a fast-talking PhD level scientist). A guy fresh out of the military, working construction to pay the bills, but still not satisfied with where he currently is in the world. Tolan was just a lazily written caricature whose depth amounted to nothing more than "the black one". "Eyez fromz da streetz!" was one of the most cringeworthy lines I've ever heard.

Indeed! from our friends at IMDB: www.imdb.com/title/tt0087332/trivia?ref_=tt_trv_trv "...The party scene where Louis Tully (Rick Moranis) mingles with his party guests (commenting on the price of the salmon, and so on) is not only taken in one continuous shot, but is almost entirely improvised."

[@killwalker2474]

Wow thanks man. That was a good read. I always liked that louis tulley salmon quote because i live near Nova Scotia where he said the salmon was from.

[@sonicmario64]

FUN FACT - Louis was originally to be played by John Candy during the production of the movie, and he was also supposed to be portrayed as a fun-loving guy who loves to party all the time. Could you imagine what "Ghostbusters" would have been like if he was on board instead of Rick Moranis? ;)

Winston got a lot of great lines. After being asked a long list of things he believes in, his answer? A perfectly sincere "As long as there's a steady paycheck in it, I'll believe anything you say". Winston filled an important role: The everyman who is supposed to be most like the average audience member. Watching three scientists go after ghosts is all well and good, but throw a normal guy in who's experiencing stuff totally out of his league, and you got something special.

Andrew Wallington . I have no hate for Melissa or the other females . In my opinion Fans 1#- Thinks if their was another movie..the originals should of gotten it..even if they wrote out bill Murray and put in a different person .like a family or friend in the story criteria. But Columbia ...turned down a 3rd. 2nd- Movies like GB should not be rebooted in fans perspective.especially after Harold ramis death. Slimmer and Gozer was cgi. And some other things...but Paul fieg went all Michael bay and not attempt to making it as good as 1&2 . Especially towards the end when all the ghost was on the loose . Movies like GB should be left alone especially from reboots . Mortal Kombat is being Rebooted by James Wan. And locations are already being planned for scene filming.. Even though James Wan is pretty awesome at his movies... I'm sure alot of fans are concerned. Mk1 movie was awesome..part 2..Not so much... But still fans watch it.. Being one of the best games since the 90s and a reboot is now in mode for movie... It's very very hard to please the fans especially in Ghostbusters and other movies like it. We consider one and 2 of the Ghostbusters a masterpiece and such masterpiece shouldn't be rebooted..some don't like GB 2 but we watch it . Melissa is hilarious in alot of her movies .a good actress and the others.. that's how my opinion is.

[@handsomebrick]

That Ghostbusters game was designed by the legendary David Crane, believe it or not. It was originally made for the Commodore 64 and the other versions are ports. It had to be developed in 6 weeks because the movie was already in theaters by then, so they converted a game named Car Wars that was already in development into a Ghostbusters game. It sold well at the time and was well reviewed, although there were a few dissenting voices including Ernie Hudson himself. The NES version came out four years later and is generally considered to be a bad port, but the Atari 2600 version is considered to be pretty good so take that how you will.

[@Fire-Wolf-The-Wolgan]

I'll say this again, anyone who beats up an actor for playing a character, deserves a straight-jacket.

[@Knight79334]

Give us facts!!!

[@judgewilson2410]

He was made from 5 jumbo marshmallows

[@mattjindrak]

Dana has a bag of Stay Puft marshmallows on her counter when the eggs start breaking a boiling. And there's an ad for Stay Pufts on wall near their headquarters. So Ray thinking of him didn't come out of nowhere.

[@yoda908]

And what I found interesting that in the cartoon the stay puft marshmallow man actually worked with the Ghostbusters in a couple episodes.

[@phoenixmar1]

As a child in an unstable home, and as a result afraid of everything. This franchise was empowering, made me feel like I could confront the strange and unknown, which was my everyday. (obviously this is a thought I had as an adult, as a kid I just like the movie/show).

[@GreyJedi73]

Great insight! I have had similar experiences with my childhood movies.

[@seferino]

Wow. Really ?

[@mjag2834]

I'd like to see a dark Ghostbusters horror film rather than some glossy comic book hokey remake.

There were 2 such movies, but, only on tv and/or video: "Phantom Force" and "Spectral".

[@Firion316]

It is downright ridiculous that some people are incapable of distinguishing between a character played out on a screen, and the real-life actor who brings the character to life. The fact that the haters couldn't separate William Atherton from his performance (almost like Jack Gleeson after his portrayal of Joffrey from Game of Thrones) speaks to a level of detachment from reality that cannot be healthy.

[@mattjindrak]

Yeah people sure are stupid

[@flightofthebumblebee9529]

Jack Gleeson aka Joffrey is the nicest guy in the world. It is a testament to an actor if they can make you hate their character so much.

[@oldenweery7510]

@@flightofthebumblebee9529 Yes, my dad was a guy who despised actor Victor Jory, an actor of the '30s through the '80s who often played villains. I tried several times to explain to him that it was a sign of his ability to get the audience to hate him, but he wouldn't have it. Actually, Jory played a police detective in an excellent TV series, "Manhunt," in 1959-'61. Soap opera stars had a tough time with the fans who couldn't seem to grasp the concept of acting.

[@legionarybooks13]

@@flightofthebumblebee9529 , it was the same with Iwan Rheon, who portrayed Ramsay Bolton. Joffrey and Ramsay were two of the wickedest characters on the show, yet played by the nicest actors. On a side note, Iwan is also an accomplished Welsh folk singer. :)

[@oldenweery7510]

@Robert Pierson Apparently, you're one of the "My mind is made up, don't confuse me with the facts," people. We've all seen numerous actors of both genders who were beloved for playing iconic nice characters who turned out to be thoroughly nasty human beings in real life. I'll bet you can name some of them, right?

[@RussMichaels]

I remember back in the 80's ghostbusters logo was being spray painted everywhere

[@stevegallo8483]

Here's another random fact about Ghostbusters. In the scene where the guys are running through the park, there is a birthday party, and the girl whose birthday it is in that scene is a future pop singer named Debbie Gibson. It's a blink and you miss it moment, but she's there.

[@brianm6117]

This was the first movie I ever saw in theaters. I was only 3 and I remember Slimer scaring the crap out of me when he flew straight at the screen. I had a box of M&M's or Reese's Pieces and ended up throwing them all over people behind me.

[@GamesbyMarcWolff]

The fact that we didn't get an 80's Shadowrun movie co-starring Eddie Murphy is a crime against humanity and the statute of limitations will never run out.

[@princeoftheson]

Dude, what do you have against Ernie Hudson. You never even mentioned his name. There were 4 Ghostbusters and you just flat out ignore one.

[@princeoftheson]

@Robert Pierson yes you can see Ernie Hudson but there are parts of this video where Minty says, flat out, there were 3 Ghostbusters

[@GarretGrayCamera]

He was a weird addition to the story. Not Hudson's fault, he's a good actor but there wasn't much for him to do and didn't have the same chemistry with the three main guys as they had with each other. I always felt kind of bad for him. Even in the pan and scan version where they could only fit 3 of the 4 in the shot, he'd be left out.

[@bigeric1030]

The part was written for Eddie Murphy, and he was supposed to be a blue collar guy to cut through some of the scientific jargon.

[@ukmedicfrcs]

Because there were only 3 original Ghostbusters. If you insist on 4, you'd be wrong because Rick Moranis became a Ghostbuster so there'd be 5.

[@jahrules8674]

Lol the black one 😂

[@tonysunshine5727]

[@BoneCity]

Nobody ever spells Dan Aykroyd's name correctly.

[@AvengerII]

I could have sworn it was always spelled "ACKroyd" myself for many years but it's a weird spelling -- I'd swear it was Eastern European but his background says he's a mix of Dutch, Irish, English, French. I guess people just look for the name to be spelled the way it sounds...

[@reneelolley6019]

I am guilty myself, its poorly misspelled on my post on here .

[@TubbysExplorationsYT]

One of my favorite behind the scenes stories is what they pulled on Atherton during filming. The scene near the end, when Peck gets marshmallow cream dumped on him? Yeah, just a crane filled with cheap shaving cream; Reitman told Atherton "Just stand over there and act surprised". Then when the camera's were rolling, they dumped the cream; the only warning Atherton had was a metallic clank right above him (hence Peck looking up at the very last second, then trying to shield himself from the cream). My other favorite is when they filmed the "successful test" of the proton packs. They only told the actress playing the maid that her cart was "rigged up to make some noise". They never told her it was loaded with pyrotechnics. Hence, while the voiceover has her saying "What the hell are you doing?", the actress was actually sticking her head out from behind the cart, giving the crew a good, old fashioned ass-chewing.

[@johnsheehan3671]

William Atherton one of the most underrated actor

[@richardlandis793]

Any time someone needs help, I say "Who you gonna call?" I wish they were still around to battle the current evil running New York. The casting was great.

[@joshuadavid1641]

“Listen...You smell something?!” 🤣😂

[@michaelweems679]

My favorite line in the whole movie. Aykroyd is a genius.

[@johntracy72]

Ghostbusters is one of my favorite movies of all time.

[@oscarg8280]

I imagine chase would have done fine instead of Murray, but Eddie Murphy and John Belushi would have been hilarious

[@1997calvert]

I couldn't agree more. In fact I imagine a movie that should have been made and that John Belushi should have starred in with Dan Aykroyd and Eddie Murphy and John Candy, before his death. And its called The Land of Gorch, an SNL Muppet movie directed by Jim Henson and released in 1982 3 years before Ghostbusters. Wouldn't you love to see that movie if it was made?

[@DarthPoyner]

Nah, it would have relied on too many fart jokes and yelling. The group they got were far superior for the subject matter. Dry wit and understated comedy. We got the best that could have been.

[@jillhanschen6590]

They did have John Belushi kinda in the movie. His spirit took the form of Slimer.

[@georgemack1395]

I definitely like the original Ghostbusters movie over the remake but I do not think the remake was as bad as some people made it out to be. It was made in today's modern times and was enjoyable but for those of us that grew up with the original, that is where our hearts are. Great video Minty. Keep up the great vids.

[@lsporter88]

Slimer is Bluto. Great Video.😜

[@yoda908]

Non cannon though but still interesting fact. Marvel did a "the eal Ghostbusters" comic book series in which they gave Slimer a backstory before he died. He was actually named King Remils who died while being obese.

[@shozinryu4]

As usual you did an awesome job Minty!!! Thank you for these!!

[@smwad7103]

Sounded to me like the new ghostbusters should have been closer to that original script u told us about. I mean it being decades later and the reveal of ghosts as real would give grounds to a global ghost busting team decades later

[@nevstar7601]

I still think one of the great movie quotes of all time is “Ray, when someone asks if you are a God; you say ‘YES’”

[@anybag7007]

Watched a show on TV about this movie and everyone interviewed from the movie said Slimer was a spirit liking to all out tribute to Balushi.

[@jacksprofessionalproductio9403]

I remember reading original prints of the first draft of ghostbusters and I can't help but think that Dan Akroyd wanted to make a Lord of the rings/Star Trek kind of ghost movie. Like ghosts are more common than house pests, Dimension traveling is like taking a subway train and Ivo Shandor isn't the villain, but rather an inter-dimensional employee of the ghostbusters. Also, there was no Egon in the first draft and Winston was originally named Ramsy. I know that the ghost lore and proton pack physics came from his personal knowledge, although I really don't understand where Dan got the inspiration to set the movie in the future. Although this script seemed impossible to make back in the day, maybe in the far distant future, while either get a comic book or big budget movie adaptation of Dan's original draft.

[@capkarr]

My favorite movie line, "If someones asks if you're a god, you say, 'YES'". SW oh my GOD! I would love to "plow that field" only problem is I was like 12 back then.
