its funny that Rick Moranis character is the key master, but locks himself out on a daily basis😂

[@mattmc5069]

In the brief cuts when you see them running from cops during the song that was real because they didn't have a permit to film lol In fact the police got many calls about a strange car with a strange logo. Dan Aykroyd and Bill Murray (Ray and Peter) often took the car for a drive during thier lunch break and this caused alot of confusion as many wondered what was going on as no one saw a vehicle like that before with that logo. The mayor was reportedly a little ticked off they didn't tell him they where filming but he let them go.

[@MatCaveGaming]

So much fun! After you watch "Ghostbusters 2", you could play the 2009 "Ghostbusters: The Video Game" together. It's basically, Ghostbusters 3 and I think you will love it! It was remastered a couple years ago, too.

[@IcarusDrowning-gz8se]

At 27:20 is a very brief appearance by the cop from Die Hard, playing another cop.

[@BruceLee-t9n]

2 things from many things I remember from Ghostbusters. 1 is Bill Murray's part was originally for John Belushi but sadly he passed away and Huey Lewis sued Ray Parker Jr for kinda sorta copying his song the power of love. Lewis & Parker do not like each other. Parker sued him a few years later and then Lewis sued Parker back. It's a mess. Oh and Sigourney started acting like a wild animal in her audition which landed her the role.

[@jbelisle1986]

Close, Huey Lewis successfully sued Ray Parker Jr. for blatantly copying "I Want A New Drug." Take out the lyrics of both songs, and they are nearly identical.

[@BruceLee-t9n]

@@jbelisle1986 yeah yeah that's true. I knew it was 1 of Huey's Hits. And I remember doing that and telling myself oh that's too similar 🤔😂

[@DeAnne1233]

A few recommendations to add to your list: Michelle Pfeiffer - The Story of Us, with Bruce Willis One Fine Day, with George Clooney Tequila Sunrise, with Mel Gibson and Kurt Russell Up Close and Personal, with Robert Redford Wolf or Witches of Eastwich, with Jack Nicholson Stardust or The Family, with Robert Dinero Grease 2 (yeah I said it, loved her in that movie) All Com/Drams.

Not an 80:s film, but The Fifth Element (1997) has a similar spirit as Ghostbusters. It's a well paced, fast, fun action comedy also with a lot of quotable lines. Directed by Luc Besson and a great cast including Bruce Willis, Milla Jovovich, Cris Tucker and Gary Oldman. If you haven't watched it, I think you'll love it.

[@Billinois78]

You know, in the original script, it was supposed to be a giant Pillsbury Dough Boy, but they couldn't get permission. What they put together was sort of a combination of the PDB, the Michelin Tire guy and possibly Bob's Big Boy. Dana had a bag of Stay Puft marshmallows on the kitchen counter next to the eggs. It's not something a first-time viewer would notice, but might notice when watching again. I think there was also a Stay Puft ad on the side of a building outside Ghostbusters headquarters and can be seen when the roof blows up.

[@eshuorishas9987]

A must-watch 80's movie that took over US culture by storm instantly was "Back to the Future" 1985. It's as tightly scene-by-scene entertaining as "Ghostbusters".

[@izzonj]

I've got a t- shirt that says, "Back off man, I'm a scientist!"

[@BigGator5]

"Ray, when someone asks you if you're a god, you say YES!" This movie is very conservative if you think about it: Three scientists are CANCELLED by the head of a very liberal college for their beliefs and ideas. Like any good capitalists, they then go into business to sell their services and franchise rights. They also work with local law enforcement in some extreme cases. When they become successful, an unelected federal bureaucrat from the EPA comes to attack and shuts down their business. The "Gatekeeper" is a woman and the "Keymaster" is a man. A local elected public official, hoping to serve the people who elected him into office, sides with the scientist businessmen and kicks the evil federal agent to the curb. The scientists do battle with a "pro-choice" pagan deity that tramples a "pro-life" Catholic Church. In the end, our hero scientists banish the evil pagan deity and the man gets his girl. Thank you for coming to my TEDx talk. Fun Fact: Harold Ramis only intended to write the film. He decided to play Dr. Egon Spengler after he felt he was the best person suited for the role. Magic Trick Fact: Sigourney Weaver floating is an actual physical effect. The actress was put in a full body cast and attached to a post hidden in the curtains. According to the DVD commentary, the effect came from Ivan Reitman's Broadway experience. What Script Fact: When Louis Tully (Rick Moranis) mingles with his party guests (commenting on the price of the salmon and so on), the scene is one continuous shot and almost entirely improvised (as with most of the best lines throughout the movie). Science Guy Fact: When interviewing the librarian (Alice Drummond), Dr. Peter Venkman (Bill Murray) asks her if she is currently menstruating. In parapsychology, there is some correlation between menstrual cycles and latent telekinetic powers. From a psychological standpoint, she may have been going through menopause, which in very rare cases can cause psychotic breaks or blackouts. Peter was trying to determine if she might have actually caused the disturbance herself, either physically or through psychic powers.

[@ElectricKnight.]

For Bill Murray movies, Groundhog Day is a great one. Also, I just love Rick Moranis, and have to wonder if you two are familiar with his comedic Canadian duo, called The Mckenzie Brothers. They made a movie in 1983 called Strange Brew and, if you haven't seen it, you must! 😆 (pretty sure it is a Canadian rite of passage; at least, that is what I read on the internet, so, that's obviously true).😆

Dan Ackroyd is a true believer, his family were all into the paranormal. The best lines "LISTEN ! Can you smell something ?" - "Gozer the Gozerian... good evening." - "I'm going to send you a nice fruit basket." Rick Moranis' accountancy monologue at the party was 100% improv. What a legend. So more 80s - Trading Places (Dan Ackroyd Eddie Murphey) - What About Bob - (Bill Murray Richard Dreyfuss) and one noone is doing that is SOOO funny - Stakeout (Richard Dreyfuss, Emilio Estevez). Look up Brat Pack movies as well - Lost Boys, Young Guns, St Elmos Fire. That's the 80s !

[@TriarchVisgroup]

When Dan said he showed this movie to his kids I just imagined them sitting in front of the TV during the montage and going "Daddy... What is that angel doing?"

[@Redfern42]

@@TriarchVisgroup That, ahem, "angel" was Kim Herrin. She appeared in a few ZZ Top videos and had a modest career in the 80s as "eye candy" for various other projects. She was also the "Playmate of the Month" in the very first PlayBoy I formally purchased when I reached legal age. So I tended to notice her when she appeared in something.

If you guys want to watch a great movie from the 80’s that will scratch both your Mortal Combat itch and your comedy itch, than you have to watch “Big Trouble in Little China” with Kurt Russell. It’s so good and another cult classic. You will love it!

[@DirigoDuke]

If you liked Ghostbusters, you’ll LOVE the 1986 comedy-horror musical, LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS, which starred Rick Moranis (the “bit much” guy from this flick), with Bill Murray in a featured role. Be careful though, as it exists it two versions - the original theatrical cut and the director’s cut, which have significantly different endings. Personally, I prefer the theatrical version.

[@TSHHVA24]

Ghostbusters is such an amazing blend of comedy, cosmic horror, supernatural horror, and urban fantasy. I can watch it hundreds of times and it never gets old. A similar movie that gets hardly any love these days is Monster Squad(1987). If you watch it you'll see a lot of similarities to a very popular modern show. I can't recommend it enough.

[@corvus1970]

I absolutely second "The Monster Squad." Excellent pick!

[@Minion_of_Cthulhu]

Monster Squad is one of my childhood favorites!

You have just witnessed my all time favorite movie. You should watch Ghostbusters II and Ghostbusters: Afterlife. Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire will be in theaters this week.

[@ElectricKnight.]

There really is no other movie like this one! 😂 You've mentioned gaming often, did you know there's a fairly recent Ghostbusters game, Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed, where four of you can suit up as ghostbusters and play together? It's not the greatest game, but it is fun, especially customizing the character to make myself as a ghostbuster. Worth a whirl to play together IMHO. There's also an amazing singleplayer game from 2009 that they've remastered that you can get on steam. It features all the actors and Aykroyd and Ramis worked with the writers. It's basically the 3rd movie we never got, in game form. Just thought I'd share in case you were interested! Anyways! Have fun!

They made great use of air hoses for the special effects. The cards flying up out of the drawers? Air hoses. The eggs exploding? Air hoses. Hair flying back? Air hoses. The marshmallow was actually shaving foam. William Atherton's Walter Peck had around 100lbs (45kg) dumped on him - although the actual amount varies depending on who you listen to. Great reaction to a great film.

Ghostbusters 1 & 2. Are very intelligently written and directed. The new spin offs from 2016 afterlife and frozen are offel and not the right vibes. The Cartoon is excellent and a lot of background information on the characters. Some say the video of game is more of a Ghostbusters 3. But i recommend the film 'Evolution' thats more of a Ghostbusters 3 or 4. An was directed by the original director of Ghostbusters with the same vibe. Great cast too. Great reaction

In the 80's you would watch these movies blind in a one-screen theater that was not a mega-plex and maybe even had a balcony. There was a romance to the transformative experience, especially if it was a big cultural touchstone like "Ghostbusters." Nothing like it today.

You're right. It's better today.

I first watched this movie in an absolute flea pit of a cinema. One screen, sticky floors, threadbare upholstery, and it stank of stale cigarette smoke. It's certainly far more pleasant an experience these days, but it is much more sterile.

Dana's apartment building was a matte painting. The SPM Man was a guy in a suit. The terror dogs were a combination of live puppets and stop-motion animation. Also, the rich people in the restaurant DID see Louis attacked outside but couldn't be bothered to actually stop eating and help. Classic!

[@My-Name-Isnt-Important]

The legendary Elmer Bernstein did the score for the film. He has done epics like the Ten Commandments, Ben Hurr, and other classics from the late 50's and early 60's. From the 80's onward he would do the score for various films, but you can always notice his style. Originally John Candy was to play the part that Rick Moranis plays. John Candy just didn't understand the part, and kept wanting to do a German accent. He eventually let the guys know the part wasn't for him, but he knew of a guy that would be excellent. He recommended Moranis, since Candy knew of his work from SCTV. Rick Moranis instantly understood the part and for his audition did exactly what you see in the film. Moranis became really well know after the film, and helped him land larger parts later on. That's the sort of person John Candy was, if he felt he couldn't do a part he would always recommend someone else, and usually help make them a bigger star.

[@TANKTREAD]

I appreciate some else out there mentioning the score to a film. Yes Elmer Bernstein's score is awesome for the film, my favorite by the film composer.

[@michaelserot6844]

A few of my favorite stories that came out of this film are 1) the bookshelf that fell in the library basement wasn't supposed to happen 2) the male student didn't mean to spit out his gun. It happened and sent the crew into hysterics 3) the pyrotechnics on the maid's cart scared her and her "What the hell are you doing?" reaction is real 4) in the montage scene, when Egon looks over his shoulder, it's because the crew wasn't supposed to shoot there so a security guard was chasing the actors and it ended up in the film 5) the ghost bj scene is a deleted scene where Ray and Winston visit a haunted Army fort 6) John Candy was supposed to play Louis but he wanted to play Louis as a German man with two big German Shepard dogs 7) when Peck gets drenched in marshmallow, the crew used 50 gallons (I think) of shaving cream and it nearly knocked the stuntman off his feet 8) Paul Reubens (Pee-Wee Herman) was the original choice for Gozer

In the days before CGI, there were still special effects. And because they are real, they look more real. The cards were propelled from the card catalog by little compressed air tubes, The green blob ghost (later informally called "Slimer") was meant to represent the late John Belushi, who had recently died. The slime is (as always) Methyl Cellulose, which is typically used as a food thickener and is, thus, non-toxic. Although there is an actual building at Central Park West that was used for the entrance to Dana's building, many floors were added via matte painting, and to create the temple and elaborate roof. For the buckling street, a copy of the entrance and first few floors was built at the studio. The main temple set was built on the sound stage and surrounded by a giant cyclorama of the New York skyline. All courtesy of the production designer, the late, great John De Cuir.

[@StevesFunhouse]

Just an FYI ... the librarian in the beginning scene also plays Ray Finkle's "crazy lady" mom in Ace Ventura: Pet Detective. Now, just a comment about something you asked ... When Louis got caught outside the restaurant, YES, the patrons DID see him, but this was more a social commentary about how people in New York seem cold sometimes, choosing to ignore something after seeing it because they see so much crime and weird things happening. So, once they reacted to his screams, they just went back to whatever they were doing (i.e. eating, talking, joking, etc.).

Fun fact: They almost couldn't use the name because of an earlier kids show called The Ghost Busters (it was terrible). If they didn't get the name rights at the last minute it would have been called Ghostbreakers.

"Sponges?" Yeah, sponges are a type of filter feeding animal. Typically they don't move, but they will shift to get into a better position to catch the microorganisms they feed on. Yes, sponges were the first sponges (harvested in bulk) before we found a way to make synthetic sponges.

I love your reaction you two. This is what we got in 80s when you get the best comedians and actors and actresses to do a film. From Signory, Annie Potts, Dan, Bill, Ernie, Harold, Rick. They made this movie. Yes, I like that you caught this was comedy, but it had a great story and lore. This is why we love it. Plus, this was different type of hero movie. Comedy and men of science becoming heroes and willing to do anything to save their city.

If you check out Adam Savage's channel, Tested, he has a lot of behind the scenes videos for the new movies, about props and sets, a lot of which is related to this movie. Like a tour of the fire house set.

I feel like the EPA has some legitimate concerns regarding their storage facility.

[@nealwhaley63]

From all impressions, that’s about to be addressed in the new film. Fingers crossed it doesn’t suck.

[@Timmayytoo]

Such an iconic film... I saw it in theaters. The YT channel Corridor Crew recently did a behind the scenes episode on some of the VFX on this.

[@maplenutsreact]

Ooooh I would love to see that!

[@orangeandblackattack]

so great to see a newcomer "get it" and love it! Your reaction was EXACTLY mine as a 17-year old in the theater. 80s Gen X-we had the music, the partying, the movies. I wouldnt wanna grow up in any other time period.

[@hadesmcfadden2982]

i personally think the line "listen, do you smell something?" is bit of low key comedy that gets overlooked.

Whilst it's true that Venkman is probably the least academic of the original three Ghostbusters, the character really shows his background as a parapsychologist when he discovers that Dana has been possessed. He stays calm, and doesn't feed the possession; he keeps on referring to Dana and (not Zull) firmly asking to talk to her. It's spot on how a suspected possession is supposed to be dealt with. It's such a great, subtle piece of writing. The only problem is; what the heck is Venkman doing walking around carrying sedative whilst visiting a female client at her a apartment in the evening? That's just creepy...

[@joshfacio9379]

I always assumed the pills were danas, as i remember alot of people would have valium in their medicine cabinets. He probly looked through hers for something to sedate her.

[@jamessteele7470]

@@joshfacio9379That's a fair point - I always thought that Thorazine was a specific type of heavy sedative, but I did a bit of looking and it was similar in its application to valium. Apparently the book adaption goes into more detail, in that Dana had them because she'd been feeling anxiety due to psychic stress for a while before the event shown in the film. So she had them prescribed to her.

Now finish with Ghostbusters II Ghostbusters Afterlife and Ghostbusters Frozen Empire 😊

[@dupersuper1938]

Venkman (the guy with a degree in psychology) could tell Peck was already out to get them; that's why he was messing with him. Lest any one thought they had any issue with the EPA, Harold Ramis appeared as Egon in an Earth Day TV special.

[@ericomartins9794]

There were no complaints or tests showing the presence of any contaminants, which leaves two options for Peck's behavior: 1) he was corrupt and was trying to extract a bribe. 2) something much more sinister: the cult of Shandor still existed at that point and Peck was a member and knew exactly what he was doing.

[@dupersuper1938]

@@ericomartins9794 OR...he was a dickish little busybody drunk with his moderate bureaucratic power? If the EPA had sent some one without an axe to grind, Venkman wouldn't have clocked that and messed with them, they'd have checked the containment device and verified tat it wasn't an environmental hazard, there'd have been no sign and thus no movie.

When this came out all the t-shirts said "Back off man I'm a Ghostbuster." What a terrible misappropriation of a great line.
