My favorite often missed thing about this movie is Lewis, gets locked out of his apartment 3 times and the restaurant door is locked on him. Turns into the key master and Dana’s door busts open for him!!

[@dmanimousprime3858]

Damn! I never thought about that all these years! Thank you!

[@cincin0722]

Yeah so funny i love it

[@jamesfowler5100]

Literally. You see them later getting up together with Louis's pants half down. 😈

[@stucclikechucc]

i was actually disapointed lewis wasnt in the new movie, i thought it was actually pretty good and i went into it thinking it was gonna be just okay and i was surprised i liked that it was egons kiddo

[@nowthatisawesome5431]

You: “I did not have a childhood” Us: “it’s okay. You get to have one now, and we all get to be a part of it. 🤗

[@merkerb]

Egon: “YOUR MOTHER!!” That part always gets me

[@st0n3p0ny]

It's true, this man has no dick.

[@1nelsondj]

That was the only time Egon lost his cool. "Sorry, Venkman, I'm terrified beyond the capacity for rational thought."

[@michaelaustin6623]

I love how Louis is called the Keymaster and he constantly gets locked out of his apartment.

[@KBH27]

LOL i never thought of that🤣😂

[@simmykantstandyourbitz9604]

I never thought of that either, but now that I am …he also gets sort of locked out of the restaurant

[@Nesqwikz]

So obvious but I never thought of that, thanks for pointing that out lol

[@melvinwren]

thank u lol

[@michaelaustin6623]

You’re welcome

[@deathproofpony]

Possibly my all-time favorite movie. Fun fact: the "dream" that Ray has about having sex with a ghost was actually from a sequence they cut from the movie where he investigates a haunted Revolutionary War-era fort. He tries on the general's coat and then falls asleep. The female ghost shows up, mistakes Ray for the general, and... well, you get the idea.

[@ronmaximilian6953]

Having unlicensed nuclear power is not exactly legal. On the other hand, the EPA shouldn't be randomly turning off power grids. I loved this movie as a kid. And I still love the scene where Peter and Egan turn on Ray's proton accelerator pack and then take a step away in the elevator as if that was going to do anything if the nuclear device were to explode.

[@maximillianosaben]

I had to comment because you have Maximilian in your name.

[@IdealUser]

Didn't the government confiscate some kid's homemade nuclear reactor and turned his backyard into a superfund site? David Hahn for reference.

[@fhart85]

Dana: "That's the bedroom, but nothing ever happened in there." Pete: "What a crime." 🤣

[@JeremyJamesPrutchick]

I read somewhere that the scene with the falling bookcase in the library was actually an accident, and they kept it in the movie!

[@deving9793]

They played it off well lol.

[@Thane36425]

This movie was ridiculously popular when it was released. I saw it opening weekend when I was a kid. Songs from the soundtrack were playing on the radio for months and T-shirts were common. I even had one. They even had Ghostbusters cereal. It wasn't bad, but it made your urine stink, so it wasn't a great seller.

[@badgersgetabadname]

Ghostbusters is a massive part of my childhood. The opening scene is actually quite scary. Ray Parker Jr busting out the funk to make everything better and heroes in boiler suits driving around in a hearse is everything to make an evening. Great work Devin keep up the great work. As soon as I have a pot to pee in or a window to throw it from and I`ll join up properly

[@OneColdMonkey]

If you're upset with how the city is treating them here, wait 'til you see what happened between this and Ghostbusters 2!

[@deving9793]

I would've let the ghost turn up! They ungrateful as hell

[@krissiep1317]

It’s worse. They are hired for birthday parties.

[@menolikey_]

Gb2 gets a lot of flack but I think it holds up well.

[@medieval4203]

Goonies is my favorite childhood movie

[@thecatsnightmare]

At this time in the 80's was when the Environmental Protection Agency had been given wide ranging powers by the government to investigate any business for pollution. There was some of abuse of power by EPA investigators early on in their crusade to save the environment, lots of smaller businesses harassed for "suspected violations".

[@YouWillBeHappyOrElse]

Thank you for posting this. I've been getting depressed with how many people say that Walter Peck was being "totally reasonable, that's what the government is supposed to do!" Maybe we should make that the litmus test for candidates running for office. "Was Walter Peck being reasonable in Ghostbusters? Would you approve or condemn his way of doing enforcement?"

[@shiplabi4454]

I love reliving my childhood and seeing someone watching these great movies for the first time!

[@mwdavis77]

Ghostbusters is one of my favorite movies of all time. I have so many good memory of watching this movie when I was a kid.

[@alexbrown4820]

Brother, I love all your reactions and I'm blown away you've never seen this.

[@kurtjk01]

Because of this movie, whenever I've heard someone ask, "Who you gonna call?," (Cash Cab, Who Wants to be a Millionaire, a buddy asking for a pizza joint preference; it doesn't matter) my instant answer is "Ghostbusters."

[@Cobalt-Jester]

In about 90 minutes you go from 2 or 3 floating books into a giant marshmallow man ... And that never once enters your head. That's how good movies are done.

[@joeees7790]

The green ghost in the hotel "Slimer" was a memorial to John Belushi who was originally slated to have Bill Murrays role as Venkman. Belushi performed along side Dan Akroyd (Stantz) in Blues Brothers (if you haven't seen it - its worth a watch). Belushi was also in Animal House (again if you haven't seen it - worth the watch) where he played the living collegiate version of Slimer only with a bigger appetite.

[@MrNihilist74]

It would be great to see Devin G react to stripes. The movie where Bill Murray joins the army.

[@jeffburnham6611]

I believe Harold Ramis (Egon) also starred in that movie.

[@johnckelly88]

Harold Rasmus wrote the screenplays for both I believe as well. Also Caddyshack

[@bigb2494]

A classic. Dan Aykroyd actually offered Eddie Murphy a part in the movie, but he turned it down to do Beverly Hills Cop

[@SC457A]

Saw this as a kid, and back then there was not a lot of information out before a movie was released. It was so much fun to see.

[@Relaxedplaythroughs]

Dan Aykroyd is very serious about ghosts in real life and he was a big part in writing this movie and adding the lore to it.

[@krissiep1317]

I watched an interview with him and Bill Murray, I think with Johnny Carson, about his family’s history with Spiritualism, dating back to his grandfather.

[@Relaxedplaythroughs]

He also talked about it a lot on Joe rogan pod cast

[@jared2947]

I saw this in theater when it came out. I was 7 or 8 years old. It's actually even more fun as an adult. Great reaction! Classic film.

[@Fettman89]

Hey man, it's never too late to regain that lost childhood, Ghost busters is epic.

[@robwalsh9843]

I can't stress how crazy scared I was of the Terror Dogs while growing up. Those glowing red eyes gave me many nightmares as a kid, but I still loved the movie lol

[@kadrae5277]

The library ghost scared the hell out of me when I was a kid. The possession scene freaked me out as well. Saw this film as a kid when it was first released in theatres back in the day.

[@scottmoore1614]

I was in high school when this movie came out. It was insanely popular!

[@r.d.hargrave8159]

That singing voice for the appreciation . . . back-up career!

[@mamichula7878]

I love Ghostbusters one of my favorite movies while growing up

[@TheScorpia12]

First off before finishing the video!! Ghostbusters is fucking great and it is so incredible going through all of these movies with someone so dope with such genuine reactions. Also that beard though? Keep fucking combing that thang consider a brush, looking good man

[@NESninja1982]

3:44 Me as a small child watching this scene for the first time: "Oh man, this is about to get goooooood!" Extremely ripped manly veteran Devin G: "I'm not diggin' this! I'm not diggin' this!"

[@Ayns.L14A]

wow you see something new every time i watch this , I've just realised the cop in the jail cell scene was the same cop who teamed up with bruce willis at the Nakatomi Plaza (die hard)

[@abalamdepaimon6891]

Freakin' love you man, some reactors put on some funky fake emotions, but i really feel ya on each video. Especially the war related ones i can tell you're feeling it and hurt. I can't really affort to patreon or donate at this point in time, but i think i'm watching pretty much all your vids and liking. Hope you are enjoying doing this and looking forward to more uploads !

[@deving9793]

Its all good fam! You watching is support and I appreciate it 🙌

[@PickleBread355]

Can I get ONE example of one of these "fake" reactors. I'd really like to see some for the cringe

[@3Kings_Industries]

Hey bro, if you are feeling like you missed out, we are glad for the opportunity to share these first time film experiences with you. Its one of the joys of watching film, sharing the story and artistic concepts with friends. As for the old librarian trope, I worked at a municipal library in college, and there were plenty of young early 20s librarians. Ages spanned a whole gamut. But, the job is pretty cushy considering the requirements. Back in the day, literary indexing and sorting were pretty much the job. Newer librarians have to have technology backgrounds as well. And, unfortunately, a lot of city and town libraries don't have the funding they require to maintain the social hub of information for the local community anymore. Hey, if you want another Halloween themed childhood show, add Monster Squad to your list, maybe for next Halloween season.

[@filipohman7277]

Awesome Movie and Work Bro, Thanks 👍👍👍👍 Greetings from Helsinki, Finland 🇫🇮🇺🇸🇫🇮🇺🇸

[@Toomaletoopaletoostale]

No movie before and none since have had the EPA as the baddies. So sweet.

[@toddcortez714]

At the beginning of the film... I was waiting for you to grab your pistol. Lol. 😂 Great review Devin!

[@anastasiosgkotzamanis5277]

Great vid. I was really looking forward to seeing your reaction during the prison scene when everyone is paying attention to what the Ghostbusters are talking about.

[@xxJOKeR75xx]

Man, your reaction is the funniest thing. If they did the movie you talked about it would not be a comedy ;)

[@bemasaberwyn55]

So Dan Akkroyd had envisioned an epic of BIBLICAL proportions with his original treatment. After shopping it around producer Ivan Reitman at Columbia liked his idea. But suggested pearing back the effects(Stay Puft was in the first act). He invited Harold Ramis(RIP) and Dan to his lake house to write a script after selling the idea to Columbia. The blue collar angle came from that weekend. They shot pretty much that script(minus the improvs by the enrire cast). Improvisations like Sigourney Weaver acting like a dog in her audition. Initially John Belushi was supposed to be in this. As was Eddie Murphy and John Candy. From all appearances Ghostbusters shouldn't have worked since this film is BASICALLY a horror comedy.....but the final product. From score, to soundtrack, to effects, to story.....everything worked. Still works nearly 40 years later. The film spawned a successful cartoon series(and spinoff), comics, video games(1 written by Ramis and Akkroyd), toys and 2 sequels(2nd coming out on the 18th or so).....as well as a poorly excecuted reboot. As to the characters Peter is the straight man(aka skeptic), Egon is very much the tech guy of the group. Ray is the heart. And Winston is the audience insert. Personally Egon was always my favorite but EVERYONE has great lines. A fun thing to think about......if Peter wasn't being such a DICK to that student, he'd have seen his experiment ACTUALLY worked. This film(and it's first sequel) is SO damn quotable. Welcome to this wonderful franchise of Ghostheads

[@edinscot56789]

Bill Murray always plays a great sleazeball

[@jpotter2086]

You have just witnessed my all time favorite movie.

[@theodorepaul2610]

I immediately hit the thumbs up when starting a Devin G video... why wait to show the love :)

[@neildavis1639]

Slimer is based on John Belushi, who was supposed to play the role of Peter Vekmen but passed on before the script was finished. And the iconic line (who ya gonna call) came from the Blues Brothers.

[@thomashughes3249]

This is one of my top all time movies. Great reaction , thx.

[@IggyStardust1967]

Walter Peck, the guy from the EPA, played by William Atherton, plays a brilliant antagonist in everything he is in! His best roles, in my opinion, are in Biodome and Real Genius. Put those on your list!

[@dan2007kohn]

Real Genius is GREAT!!

[@SimoExMachina2]

[@masonbryant9145]

This movie was a childhood favorite. Good review. Keep up the good work.

[@pmz1981]

2 things: "Unprofessional?" Did yo notice the part where on their first date Peter just so happen to bring a sedative with him? Anytime someone extends their hand and says "Im so and so from the EPA," shoot on sight.

[@YouWillBeHappyOrElse]

Did he bring a sedative, or did he order it up from the drug store? Louis' earlier mention of a vitamin delivery wasn't a throwaway line, you know.

[@Harrison11106]

Classic movie, it & GB2 I watch on occasion. Ghostbusters the video game is considered Ghostbusters 3, as it's the last time the main cast got together for the voicework. When you look into the background stuff it makes it all the more interesting. Aykroyd & Ramis were both Spiritualists at the time, which gives it depth overall. John Candy was originally supposed to play the part that Rick Moranis got, but he wanted to play the character as a Frenchman for some reason. Eddie Murphy was originally supposed to be Winston, but he had scheduling conflicts (he was working on Beverly Hills Cop). Lastly, the one I always wonder about. John Belushi was originally supposed to be Peter Venkman, but he ODed & died, so the role was re-written for Bill Murray. It's been said that Slimer is/was an ode to the kinds of characters Belushi tended to play. If I could visit alternate Earths, one of them would be where Belushi lived to play the Venkman role. I can guarantee that the energy of the film would be different. Would Slimer be in it at all, or would Slimer have been re-written? Oh yeah, don't bother with the crappy 2016 reboot.

[@geddistopholes6785]

Wow. Almost can't believe you had never seen this before, considering it is such a classic. One of my all time favorite comedies. I don't consider it to be any kind of scary at all. Glad you liked it. Because it doesn't hurt to keep asking, please react to Lord of War from 2005 starring Nicholas Cage. You will love that movie, I know it! Happy Halloween, Mr G!

[@stevenwebb3634]

[@MattDeMille]

I was the last student of the designer of this film. This is actually based on real occult lore and locations. Hellywood ritual, stargates and manifestation.

[@Sysrestrpx]

Yes, all them ghost they caught are still running wild again. That is why there is a part 2 and a kids Cartoon Show.

[@Lexi_Zone]

_To be fair,_ I'm pretty sure a lot of the Ghostbusters's equipment isn't strictly legal or safe (Egon even refers to their packs as "unlicensed nuclear accelerators"). But Peck is still a reckless dick. And more importantly, the dangerous, untested equipment, the collateral damage they cause, and how unprofessional the Ghostbusters act is all part of the comedy.
