Honorable mention: cheerleader cardi screaming “poopshoot”

[@abbieurick1182]

One last time up the poop chute Los Angeles! 🤣

[@Ricky-nc2tt]

He asked "who's running the show?" when he realized Sister Imperator was dying because she always ran the show

[@gonstFM]

I know

[@Ricky-nc2tt]

The one night stand was the Bates Motel

[@gonstFM]

Yep. Loved it! All the little Easter eggs in this movie were awesome

[@NightsIntoDreams777]

I do wonder how Tobias is gonna handle the brothers angle. Will the other brother act similar to Cardi, or will he be a complete 180 personality wise?

[@gonstFM]

That would be lots of fun for the brothers to have the yin/yang balance

[@Harlizarrd]

I'm really keen to see a Papa who looks almost like Cardi but is a real shithead, tbh.

[@dvddmc]

Can we talk about how great the song if you have ghost you have every thing. I loved the strings and Piano could not help to shed a few tears for the way he did that cover it was amazing. It was a great show. I bought 4 ticket to the movie but only used one to support the movie. It was nice to not see every one with there fucking cell phones in the air More concerts should be like that.

[@joebeer2160]

So the cliffhanger..'The Twin Brother?' 🤔

[@marybrant9586]

????

[@GhostifiedGhoulishness]

Copia translates from Italian to English as copy (or replica). Brother Imperator must have a brother.

[@joebeer2160]

As I am saying the figure at the door is his twin brother..who will take over the duties..which could also mean..a run up to a new album.

[@marybrant9586]

@joebeer2160 Tobias said there would be a change before the next album came out

[@joebeer2160]

@marybrant9586 yeah and this will be the story. His twin will take over proceedings from that album.

[@anocken]

There is sooo much to this movie and I love it sooo much. I can't even begin to put it into words. And that credits song... OMFG.... Loved this Papa X, as always!

[@pokerjoker7096]

I got sad when I saw her IV and other pills. Reminded me of losing my Mom. The Dad talk was kinda emotional. My Dad was a BMF so not so much. 11/10. I was at both Forum shows. That experience was amazing since there was no dragging in the show, it moved that quick. Papas 2nd stage speeches were longer and off the cuff. I’m glad they stream lined them. Movie is perfect like everything else they have ever done.

[@pokerjoker7096]

And the artwork during the credits was pretty Rad. And yes, there are twins. Cardi’s EVIL brother.

[@radioactivetiger2278]

Copia having such bad death anxiety made me feel much better about being anxious for him myself. It’s like our fears for him were perfectly projected onto him so we wouldn’t feel alone. The shots were absolutely GORGEOUS for the concert production. My theater had an issue with Per’s guitar audio, which really sucked, but it was a roller coaster of emotions and I absolutely loved it.

[@frustraceann]

agree! i felt a bit tense before and throughout the movie, wondering if/when/how copia would be killed, and it definitely felt validating to see copia himself be just as anxious. when he was comforted about his death anxiety, i felt equally comforted.

[@Josephkerr101]

Now that I know what the glass coffin was for I am sooo sad about it.

[@andreahardin7521]

ME TOO

[@traceyp5797]

The drum sound, never heard that technique captured.

[@gonstFM]

It’s something I’ve noticed on the entire run of this album cycle, the drum microphones were built into the inside of the shell and still had the resonant head attached on the bottom of the shell. So you’re getting the attack of the drumstick and the full resonance of the shell’s tones. It was super cool.

[@AnGawain]

I thought I was nuts for thinking "do you think is air what you're breathing" Matrix reference. Finally!! I loved this film and the lore and the meaning behind everything so much.

[@dandyxrandy7200]

This is the first GonstFM podcast I listened to and I'm hooked!! This was such a good review, especially from a Ghost fan.

[@gonstFM]

I am so glad you liked it! I also do a radio broadcast once a month on the Stationhead app. You should come check that out sometime. I usually give updates on my socials for those 🤘🏻 Thank you for taking time to listen 🙏🏻

[@LoganFlores]

I absolutely love this movie so much! It's the Best Concert film I've seen it as a ghost fan it so good I love that they actually did not allow the audiences to use their phones to record because I feel like that could give away the experience you're Rite Here Rite Now! The songs were so good people in my theater especially in costume some were nuns others were Nameless Ghouls and Papas I was in makeup of course as Papa 4 being there with the ghost fans was an amazing experience and I loved it so much we were all singing and clapping it felt like we were actually there in that concert which made it even more fun and exciting I love this movie so much and I'm hoping it'll get a physical release on Blu-ray and DVD because this movie definitely deserves to be on the big screen and for people at home who want to watch it you're gonna want to start dancing!

[@JustSheilz]

my local theater has showings thru Thursday!

[@gonstFM]

Oh cool! 🤘🏻

[@GhostifiedGhoulishness]

Thank you! Just checked Fandango and noted a few theaters in the suburbs are having showings through Thursday, too! Hot damn. I'm gonna see it for the 4th time, probably. Bless you, my child, for your comment. ❤️😊

[@cameramandanno]

I JUST SAW IT AGAIN LAST NIGHT ,

[@Josephkerr101]

oooohhh man you put some context in that I was missing about the next papa! Thank you!

[@gonstFM]

🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👻

[@franciscoantonio5306]

Stumbled onto this band when I saw they had a concert film. Read up on the lore and saw it Thursday and today and am into like 11 of their songs right now. Wasn't a fan of the skits, the execution was bad but the live performances were awesome.The second viewing ruined the recorded versions for me though. They sound immensely better live. Hope to see them next time they tour!!

[@gonstFM]

You should watch their Chapters videos on their KZbin channel! The band is purposefully campy in the execution of the skits and such. It’s not meant to be taken too seriously 😎

[@franciscoantonio5306]

@@gonstFM hell yeah. I'll check out the chapters, thank you

[@Ricky-nc2tt]

I also loved the star wars opening shot!!!

[@gonstFM]

YES! Even the whole “twins” thing is very Luke and Leia 👀

[@Ricky-nc2tt]

@@gonstFM How did the two girls die? (Tobias' daughters)

[@Ricky-nc2tt]

@@gonstFM Also, thanks for mentioning that. I totally missed that Copia has a twin.

[@sandyglaus559]

Spoiler: Hi Richie!! Tobias is a little stinker. That last scene just after the credits. Really!!!!! Ha!!!! I said “ Are you Serious” out loud after it happened. Everyone started laughing. Even Rotten Tomatoes gave it a 99% which never happens. Now they are in the 99% Club. It was an amazing movie. I figured Sister Imperitor would die because of the reference to the Exorcist. I knew Nihil and her were Copias parents. Now he is the head of the clergy so it is leaving it wide open for Papa V. Hope everyone else enjoyed it as well

Are we beginning the discussion yet on the speculation for our next era ? Is ghost (as we’ve known it) over ? Has the story weve all known come to a close ? Is T.F. inbound ? ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@GhostifiedGhoulishness]

Thanks for this episode! I saw Rite Here Rite Now three times and am still like some junkie going nuts for another fix. I'm theorizing and wishful thinking that a streaming and DVD version may be available on July 26th, when the full RHRN soundtrack is available (the one everyone's pre-ordered already). Maybe, there will be a Bonus scene to the movie, where we actually get to see "the new guy," too? Because at some point, there has to be a reveal. Either it will end up in an upcoming Chapter, or as a Bonus scene when we can buy it on DVD (or streaming option). But no way are the fans going to be left waiting until a new Ghost album is released. So, hoping I'm speculating correctly about July 26th. 🤞 Aside from full agreement that RHRN was just an epic production, that Tobias Forge is a genius and that Alex Ross Perry did an amazing job working with Forge, some other things to note: Cardi always seems to go from badass frontman while on stage to behaving like a total childlike dufus when in the presence of his Mommy. That's why people cracked up at his goofy-sounding sob when he covers up Sister Imperator's face with the sheet, because he just plain acts goofy when near her. Remember the tricycle with the red bow that she gifted him once? Where he was ringing the bell? She even treated him like "my little Cardi" even after he ascended to the Papa IV title. Also, I was confused at first about whether Cardi's inevitable death was being portrayed as he's carried up to the Heavens in the balloon or if it was symbolic of his big ego, which then gets brought back to Earth. I thought he got resurrected, or "saved" by "Jesus" (aka Kevin) just as his mother dies. As if instead of yet another Papa being offed in a gentler way this time than being dragged off the stage, Sister prefers he stick around to become the new head of the Clergy. Then again, Tobias often writes lyrics that can have a double meaning, depending on who's doing the analyzing (kind of like wave-particle duality, hah hah, where it's a wave or a particle depending on the observer). Finally, loved the Rocky scene after singing If You Have Ghost, originally a Roky Erickson song. There's probably a hundred more things I could say, but I'll wrap it up by stating that if fans don't get their hands on a DVD or streaming option by July 26th, we're all going to go insane. RHRN was the best. 🤘

[@MrBannedmedia]

Great review!

[@_1989M_]

Are we getting the conversation going on speculation for the next era ? Is the ghost phase over ? Is the story over ? Are we finally getting the incoming of Tobias ? What magic this was. Thanks everyone. 💟

[@gonstFM]

Thanks for listening 🤘🏻🙏🏻

[@cameramandanno]

I THINK NOT, WHEN THEY DROPPED THE 7" OF SATANIC PANIC ITCAME OUT OF NOWHERE. BUT THEY WORKED IT IN. I THINK FATHER DE'FROQUE WILL BE THE NEW GUY.

[@mikewhite8663]

I really liked it over all as whole as well it was easy to follow it was a great concert movie hybrid I’m just upset I left during the credits

[@joehernandez4919]

Loking at the clock on the poster, its at 2 minutes to midnight. Cool Iron Maiden shout out.

[@gonstFM]

I really appreciate that! I’m so happy you enjoyed the movie and had such a great experience 🤘🏻

"Tabeeus"

“Too-bee-us” - how his name is actually pronounced in his home country, he got tired of correcting people and just rolled with it
