7 Things You (Probably) Didn’t Know About Ghostbusters!

[@TheVoid1221221]

There was a rumor that Bill Murray's proton pack weighed more than the others because they felt that Bill Murray was funnier when he was irritated...

[@rickeyboyer4726]

Hollywood secrets revealed!

[@misterwhy6026]

I mean, it’s true. He is A lot funnier when irritated.

[@JulianPope]

RIP Harold Ramis

[@ryanyeager3258]

I bet you it was Bill Murray who complain the most about the proton packs being too heavy.

[@VHunterBillyBob]

yes it was.

[@sushiyamaster989]

Ryan Yeager Maybe but I doubt it. He is one of the nicest guys you could meet if he complained he was probably just making light of it. He's done weird stuff like crashing complete strangers weddings and showing up to fund raisers he would be asked to attend by people he didn't know just to be cool and help out. VERY eccentric but extremely gracious believe it or not. My proof is I'm from California. and we all know movie stars;)

[@CCNightcore]

Agreed, he probably was just making conversation.

[@veralidaine97]

I bet he did but to be funny.

[@masonroney8775]

Ryan Yeager I agree

[@headrockbeats]

I watched Ghostbusters with my father the other night. I thought he would love it. When it was over, he said it was "a silly movie", that all the characters were "too wacky", and that he couldn't understand the humor. I cried inside.

[@michwashington]

😔

[@blackadder5517]

:\

[@headrockbeats]

Spooky Hollows My father's childhood was in the 40's-50's.

[@blackadder5517]

But it's a comedy, the characters are meant to be wacky and over the top

[@headrockbeats]

Blackadder5 That's what I told him! >:(

[@phantomspydj]

Here are a few extra ones. Originally Dan Akyroyd asked Eddie Murphy to be in this film when they were shooting Trading Places. Murphy politely declined cause he thought the film would flop. Also Murphy was supposed to play Winston and get slimed at the hotel not Murry. . And Murphy has said he regrets not doing Ghostbusters. Speaking of who should have been it. Chevy Chase was offered the role of both Peter Venkman and Egon Spegler. Chevy also refused and said the script he had was much darker then what we saw. The Restaurant where Lois runs too actually had a party in there. The party was for Debbie Gibbson. Harold Ramis had no interest in playing Egon. Only reason he did it was cause he felt no one could play Egon the right way. Speaking of Stay Puft. Originally he was supposed to appear out of the water next to the Statue Of Liberty. Just to show you how huge he really was. That plan was scrapped due to budget. William Antherton hated playing Walter Peck. In some interviews he claims when he went to a bar for a beer a lot of people would come up to him and ask if he has no D**K. Supposedly Bill Murry never really ad libbed as many lines as people think. Winston actually was supposed to be at the beging of the film when he got introduced. Paul Reubens was supposed to play Gozer. However for whatever reason he didn't. But that's where this line comes from. "It's a girl."" It's Gozer." "I thought Gozer was a man." Supposedly Ron Jeremy has a cameo. He's supposed to be in front of the building where the boys in gray walk in front of to fight Gozer.

[@brycen3093]

actually he is in the movie but hes in front of the firehouse against a blue Emergency barrier after the containment unit exploded

[@tianapitesr8553]

Classic!

[@benkenobisgirl]

Winston was supposed to have a huge back story and be much more developed. Ernie Hudson came in prepared to play that character. Instead he got a severely cut co-starring role. He’s always expressed disappointment about it.

I genuinely learnt 3 things I didn't know. I didn't expect to learn anything as I'm quite a fan. Nicely done !

[@MarshalTennerWinter]

The giant face of the marshmallow man being burned away in the inferno ALWAYS makes me spit up my coffee from laughing.

[@guayabito6946]

Why are you drinking coffee exactly at that instance?

[@joshuahall5560]

All these facts are attained from watching the dvd with commentary by Harold Ramis and Ivan Reitman. It is a top notch commentary.

[@LextheRobot]

There is a conflicting report from one of the earliest sources of GB trivia, the 1985 book Making Ghostbusters, which says that both man-on-the-street reporter Roy Brady AND the onlooking hippie passerby were actors cast in those roles. (Page 93.) Also, the Rockefeller Center security guard who was chasing them cannot be seen in the finished film, despite the commentary track's claims, but he CAN be briefly glimpsed in the specific footage used in the teaser trailer.

[@ashkrikorian5753]

how could security be chasing them when you need to setup power stations, cameras etc... I call bs

[@okrajoe]

So many bonuses.

[@WilsTube]

Speaking of Proton Packs, Dan and Harold weighed down Bill’s Proton Pack as more of a practical joke and thought that Bill was much funnier that way.

[@dimensione90]

It's interesting the fact that when I was child my favourite movies were Ghostbusters and Blues Brothers!

[@crescentfreshbret]

I'm surprised they didn't mention Ron Jeremy's brief cameo in a crowd scene.

[@squad51_kmg365]

crescentfreshbret i was wondering that as well.

[@Xegethra]

I went to the Ghostbusters firehouse on my trip to New York last week...covered in scaffolding. Picked a rather dodgy week to visit, everything seemed to be under renovation.

[@jtscool99]

Things You (probably) Didn't Know About The Crow (1994)

[@clintbandura9018]

Brandon Lee died during production

[@leafyisdonethedramalord7670]

+Clint Bandura brondon lee son of bruce lee

[@KittyCatFurbabiesMaria1972]

People who are fans of the crow will know that Brandon is Bruce's son and that he died during filming 😭

[@dangdanielplayz3453]

Dang if he makes this video I will be so happy cuz this is kind of like deadpool and batman

[@veralidaine97]

DangDaniel Playz How is it like Deadpool?!

[@beezer1225]

This was just on IFC last night. Never miss a chance to watch this classic.

[@MrTheMighty]

I'll bet Ernie Hudson complained the least about the heavy prop. He strikes me as a consummate professional. Plus, look at the shape he's still in at his age.

[@MasterXploder88]

John Crum You could poke Dan Aykroyd in the eye and he wouldn't complain. Think we all know the bitching came from Murray, who's still a legend in any case.

[@LextheRobot]

On the commentary track, Ivan Reitman tells Harold Ramis he was the one who complained the least. Mind you, Harold was the only one of the four actors present at the time.

[@rickeyboyer4726]

Plus, his character, Winston Zeddemore, who appeared much later on in the film, was only one of four actors who got to wore the pack the least amount of time throughout the film's final shooting!

[@hello-hu7my]

Ghostbusters, my favourite movie even 'til this day!

[@guayabito6946]

Back to the future is better.

[@murciadoxial8056]

you guys forgot about the ron jeremy cameo!

[@snow_blind_08]

+Murcia doxial Everyone knows that one.

[@CurtisAlfeld]

+Murcia doxial That really isn't a cameo. A cameo is supposed to draw attention to the person, while, in Ghostbusters, Ron Jeremy was just an extra.

[@hemidas]

+Murcia doxial Also Gozer was supposed to be played by Paul Reubens. He was supposed to be in the form of the architect who projected the Dana's building, Ivo Shandor.

[@Zorak9595]

You're thinking of Henry Cameron

[@sepez]

Pllllleeeeeaaaassseeee do a 7 things about Muppet Christmas Carol for Christmas!

[@Alex_DC413]

For the record, Ivan Reitman outright said Ramis complained the least.

[@recht_voor_zijn_raap5506]

And in 2016 Sony ffed it all up with the "reboot"

[@phrenetic6254]

There is no reboot, only Zuul.

[@maxsfax9707]

Phrenetic lol

[@centrevez2075]

the only problem with the reboot wasn't the film it was how they insulted those who bashed the trailers and that dreaded fall out boy and missy Elliot doing the ghostbusters song but I am glad that it was reduced by 1 min and the other problem was Amy Pascal wanted total control and not letting Reitman have the creative input and Paul Feig turned it down several of times but Pascal threatened him with an law suit so he had no choice to do it on one condition that was being having control on the casting hence Kristen Wiig and Melissa McCarthy and following the tradition of the original by having SNL alums casted for the film with the likes of Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon .but it suffered with the batman and robin curse by failing.

[@eliechavarria7703]

2:55 Good Choice. 👍🏻

[@PictureProductStudio]

Well, I knew a lot of it, as usual, but I'm a movie trivia buff and a big fan of franchise. Still, there were quite a few new things and overall the episode is as enjoyable as it can get. Great job, CineFix.

[@Carstuff111]

Absolutely LOVE this movie!!!

[@HighHeelKnight]

Thank you! This was great!

[@lordjoemott1683]

That’s a cool things about slimmer. Loved the Blues Brothers.

[@loudenardo7935]

That stuff about Belushi got me really depressed. Thanks Cinefix!

[@jonchampion8720]

I understand the addition for another movie even though you were a star in another. When My crew and I made our film project for the film class we had an actress who we worked with before but we had her addition and she got the part of the lead.

[@CuateVolador]

i love it maybe another about ghostbusters in the future?

[@beezer1225]

Bill Murray was married to my second cousin, Margaret Kelly, from 1981 to 1996. My grandparents were at their wedding. I met him at my grandparents 50th anniversary party. He was the coolest guy ever. I remember being so starstruck. I mean Peter Venkman was in the same room as me.

[@swinginthewolf6554]

You don't want to know what I thought the marshmallow at the end was lol

Slimer was also originally called "Onionhead Ghost". Also, The Stay-Puft Marshmellow man's appearance was a combination of Michelin Tires mascot "Bibendum", The Pillsbury doughboy "Poppin' Fresh", and Donald Duck.

[@Galaxy0237]

I agree about Ghostbusters being amazing

That marshmallow made out of shaving cream made me try to eat shaving cream as a kid.

I remember seeing a video like this a while ago that also pointed out a subtle gag a lot of people don't notice. How did they happen to have the exact blueprints they needed to talk about, while in a jail cell.

[@hemichanga8939]

I miss these videos, it's been 4 months since we got a new one.

[@Cyaneyed77]

Ahhh I have wondered for all these years why Venkman was barely covered at the end of the first film, now I know!

[@CthulhusDream]

More Ghostbusters!

I already knew all this stuff, to be honest.

[@thedeadmeme7463]

Moranis really was one of the highlights of both movies.

[@VinnyS9143101982]

John Belushi (original Venkmen) died 5 days before I was born. While my mother was in labor he was burried. The next day when I was born the newspaper cover shows Bill Murray (eventual Venkmen) laying a flowerr on his casket.

[@JimCornetteIsMyDad]

They also said they wanted Staypuff to come out of the New York Harbor with the Statue of Liberty in the shot, but it cost too much.

[@grslive]

Ya gotta do Ghostbusters 2 now!

[@kenjiharimaCU]

I can never look at Slimer the same again

[@seriomarkj]

Sounds like someone is trying to get into the next movie!

[@thomasslayer8664]

I love this movie.

[@SaturnCanuck]

Apparently, during a read-through of the script, Bill Murray all of a sudden clued into the fact that Slimer (then called Onionhead in the script) was a reference to John Belushi, and said, "Oh I get it, He's supposed to be John Belushi, right Dan?". The room went silent.

So what you are saying is that roasting a marshmallow with crossed streams proton packs will inevitably turn said marshmallow into shaving cream...considering the price of shaving cream and the much cheaper price of marshmallows, this tactic could potentially help save some money (once you cancel out the cost of the proton packs that is).
