If none of the guys on the poster look familiar to you, you should check out The Blues Brothers, since you’re possibly not familiar with Dan Ackroyd. A one-of-a-kind comedy music action extravaganza through the iconic points of Chicago and the Illinois area.

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

@@sean---the-other-one ok I'll put it on the list

Annie Potts, who plays Janine the Ghostbusters' secretary, also plays Sheldon's grandma in Young Sheldon. She's hilarious.

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

OMG, you're totally correct

[@Ella-mc7pf]

Another great film starring Bill Murray is Groundhog Day, written and directed by Harold Ramis who played Egon and with a cameo by Dan Aykroyd

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Well that is interesting. I'll have to take a look. I think it's been requested already but if not. I'll put it on the list for sure. Thanks

[@Greybeardmedic]

Harold Ramis plays the doctor in Groundhog Day....Is Ackroyd in it?

[@Ella-mc7pf]

Sorry my bad, I was thinking of another character but I just checked that wasn't played by Dan Aykrold, so please ignore the bit about him.

[@michaelw8262]

If you're planning that far in advance, you could watch it on Groundhog Day. But it's not like you need to be in the Groundhog Day spirit to enjoy it or anything.

"Ice" box is pre electricity. Because we had a box which had ice in it, and we put out food in there to keep them cold. Basically what a cooler is today that we use for camping.

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Love it thanks

[@michaelw8262]

Yes, Dan Aykroyd and Bill Murray were on SNL together, although Murray was not on for very long. Slimer, the green ghost, was an homage to their castmate John Belushi, who had just died when they made this.

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Oh that's super interesting thanks for that

[@Lexi_Zone]

I used to call it a hearse too (and it would kind of make sense since they're technically dealing with the dead), but it turns out Ecto-1 was actually an old fashioned ambulance. That's why it had sirens and lights even before the Ghostbusters fixed it up. That said, I definitely have seen hearse conversions of the same model! Very iconic car.

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Good to know thanks

The thing Egon uses to read for ghosts is called a P.K.E. Meter. Psycho-Kinetic Energy meter. It reads for ghostly energy capable of interacting with physical objects.

James has got some quick quips, if you pay attention. And he's very animated and has a sense of humor, unlike many of these younger reactors (not naming names, but you know what I mean.)

[@DavidRomigJr]

All the actors in this movie were well known at the time and formed an ensemble that had amazing energy together that’s hard to reproduce. Harold Ramis spent much more of his career writing and directing then acting which is why he is not as familiar as the others to most people.

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

I thought it was awesome

[@gokaury]

It's also why Ramis doesn't have top billing on the movie posters at the time for the movie. It was only Murray, Aykroyd and Weaver that did.

[@swordofstmichael007]

"Stairs was behind her refrigerator" You have such a good eye for details. I noticed this with your John Wick reaction as well, noticing the lack of underbelly parts when they busted a car. "Whats his name is still out there" That was Slimer. Ghostbusters was such a hit, it spawned a TV animation series, and includes Slimer as their pet ghost. Watch the next one and the latest, "Ghostbuster Afterlife!"

[@blowba]

Ice boxes predated refrigerators. They're exactly what they sound like. There were compartments for food and a compartment usually on the bottom and you would put a big block of ice inside.

[@MacTechG4]

The housekeeper’s “what the hell are you doing!” Was a genuine reaction, the effects crew put more pyrotechnics on the cart than the actress realized, her shock and fear was completely genuine… Also, if you like this movie (you should) check out the Ghostbusters game in Xbox/PS4/Switch, you play as an unnamed “Rookie” ‘buster and work with the original crew, the game script was actually written by Ramis and Ackroyd, and it stars most of the original voice cast (only missing Sigourney Weaver and Rick Moranis) and is the last time Harold Ramis played Egon before his passing…

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Sounds like fun

[@exile220ify]

If you like movies with former early SNL stars, you GOTTA see "The Blues Brothers". It's probably my favourite movie of all time. It's funny as hell, and it set the Guinness Book world record for most cars destroyed in a single movie :)

[@janabraam7963]

Ice box is term from the old days when you actually put ice in a box to keep your food cold. Old people still use it, like me, cuz grandma always did. Annie Potts is the secretary, from an old show, Designing Women. Egon was Harold Ramis. He has written & directed many movies & you will see his name as you continue on your movie journey, like Caddyshack, Vacation, Animal House, Groundhog Day & more plus acting in more also. Enjoyed our reaction.

I dont think Stay Puft marshmallows is a real brand, but the scene where the eggs started cooking on the counter, look at the back of marshmallows next to them. Great videos, love your reactions.

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

I'll have to take a look

[@fllthdcrb]

Of course it's not a real brand. Generally, they don't use someone's trademark in a movie (or TV show, video game, etc.) without their permission, because they never know if someone from the company will dislike how the brand is portrayed or what it's being associated with, or just expect to have been paid for the appearance, and file a lawsuit. Instead, they come up with fake brands, and often those are reminiscent of real brands. For instance, the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man looks suspiciously similar to the Pillsbury Doughboy. (The interesting thing: apparently, there was quite a bit of product placement with other brands, but not in this case.)

[@stevensprunger3422]

It was the Pillsbury doughboy

What four day had powered refrigerators that could take a liquid and turn it into a gas to keep the unit cool. Everybody would’ve had an icebox. A nice box has insulated walls with a compartment and tray at the top of it to put a large piece of ice. The cold air circulates down and around storage compartments in the lower sections to keep your produce fresh. It basically was the early version of the modern day refrigerator. Before the icebox people would’ve used cold water from a running river or stream a well or a root seller to store their produce.

Ice Box is more of an old school term, it harkens back to when you basically had a cabinet, in some cases maybe a small closet type room, or a large chest or box of some type, and you would keep your food cold in it using a large chunk of ice. My Dad was old enough to remember as a young child, they lived out in a rather rural town and they still had an ice box, and you could have ice brought to the house, just like the milk man and a few other things back in those days still.

I don't see this as horror.

The last thing I need is getting hooked on another reactor. Two videos in, I'm subscribed and along for the ride. You're fun to watch, and hey, I have family in the Des Moines area too 😃

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Thanks for the sub

If you liked Bill Murray, you should really watch Groundhog Day (And it would be a great time, if you see my comment on time, it's actually Groundhog day in 2 days)

[@SmithDoe]

Well.... That was quick... You've posted your reaction to the movie like 10 minutes after I put this comment.. LOL

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

That worked out well!

I give it a 10/10 Spoopies

[@AwesomeUSMovies]

Spoopies? Sure, what about non-Halloween ideas?
