Dodge Magnums, ex police cars, anything with a long roof are popular choices. I have a Crown Vic that spends weekends as Ecto-47. All the gear is available today as well. A lot of it produced by Spirit Halloween and Hasbro. There are also Ghostbusters franchises all over the country. They do special events, parades, fund raisers, make a wish, all sorts of charity work. Lots of fun to be had, and the public loves seeing cars dressed up like Ectos.

When the movie was written there was supposed to be four Ghostbusters right from the beginning. The fourth one was played by Eddie Murphy. Murphy was busy and not available for shooting at the beginning so they asked them to rewrite the script so he would join halfway through the film. Then he told him he wasn't available at all... so they got Ernie Hudson to play the part.

Mostly true, but Murphy's role was not necessarily Winston. Aykroyd's original draft had 3 Ghostbusters, played by him, John Belushi (who was replaced by Bill Murray after his tragic death), & Murphy. Winston wasn't a character when Murphy was attached. He was created when the filmmaking team whitled Aykroyd's ideas down to something filmmable & relatable. The part was offered to "Alien" & "Live & Let Die" star Yaphet Kotto, but he turned it down. Thankfully, Hudson accepted the role. Murphy bowed out very early on to make "Beverly Hills Cop" which was a huge success for him!

The thing I love about the ghostbusters is that each character really is unique and has their place. Peter is the con-man funny guy. yes he does believe in the work, but he is also an opportunist. Ray is the visually excited geek. Egon is the non-visually excited nerd. Winston is the down to earth new guy who is the audience surrogate. Things get explained to him and thus to us. This is the problem with any of the newer movies beyond 2010. Either they give them no character or they all try to be the peter.

Ghostbusters and Spies LIke Us were written with John Belushi in mind. Belushi was going to have the Bill Murray role. Belushi died from the overdose. Ernie Hudson's role was originally Eddie Murphy. In some parallel universe we got a Ghostbusters film with Belushi and Murphy. Stallone turned down Beverly Hills Cop and it was offered to Murphy. He left and the role went to Hudson. Sadly it was minimized since Hudson didn't have the cache of Murphy. We ended up getting two massive films by sheer luck.

Ghostbusters was kinda groundbreaking, in the way it dealt with and portrayed ghosts. Most of the productions on the topic mainly dealt with haunted houses, spooky settings, and dead relatives. Often the film or show would deal with determining who the ghost was & what it wanted. There really weren't that many that dealt with the scientific aspects of the spiritual world & how physics could interact with it. The topic itself was a bit of a taboo as well. Ghostbusters broke a lot of ground, when it came out. If you listen to Venkman in the beginning, he was studying the effects of NEGATIVE reinforcement on ESP. He never showed the cards to either participant. However, over the course of the test, the guy started to get more accurate. Peter showered the girl with compliments, but she never got a card right. The guy initially started guessing the girl's cards, but as he got more shocks, he started guessing the cards pretty accurately.

If no one has mentioned it yet, filming of the exterior of the apartment building, when they showed up, shut down over half of down town manhattan. Look at the dvd commentary there are a TON of great stories.

If you really want to know the lore it was made for 30 million but had to be out in 10 months for summer. They did shut down Central Park West to Columbus Square which I guess is half a mile to film the ending. Everything else was done in a lot at the studio. My favorite movie of all time. I watched it 500 plus times and still can't get sick of it. Maybe there's something wrong with me😂. Glad you enjoyed it.

The library scene, upstairs was NYC but in the basement was the LA public library. It was truly a creepy place for filming and the book case falling was not planned it just happened, they ad libb that scene. Just on the background of filming. ALso the jail scene was a truly creepy place, so much so that the director and filming crew were glad to get the scene shots in one take and get the hell out of there. LOL

I keep hearing this fun fact about the book case falling and it's literally in the final shooting script from 1983. So I don't know where this rumour keeps coming from, it's like one commenter made it up now everyone thinks it's true.

@@prodestrian well thanks for correcting me. Sometimes I'm not sure what's what but never claimed it to be fact perhaps I should have stated its what I read. If it's not the truth then thank you for pointing that out 👍

You mentioned the Commodore 64 computer and it had the absolute best version of Ghostbusters as a video game. Had a save feature and everything so you could keep continuing with the same "franchise".

We had the car, the action figures and several ghost figures. The movie became a part of nearly all teenagers and young adults, when it came out. The movie was actually a main reason for the explosion of techno games for young adults. Atari, coleco-vision and others saw there was a market for those over 18 years of age, as before this movie most merchandise was made for young teens and kids.

My dad worked with a guy who had 1. They used it in parades for the children. My son loved it and had me finding every parade possible for so long!! Wasn't easy to do back then and my dad and i worked different shifts - so it was hard to communicate. Mom would ask - and then forget. People wonder why i still write everything down!

The pre-Ecto car was rented for the film, and painted black by the production then returned to its own (who eventually converted it into an Ecto replica anyway). The Ecto-1 was used in this film and at the start of Ghostbusters 2. So officially there were only 2 cars originally. Sony "restored" Ecto-1 in 2009 (badly), and Ecto-1A was disassembled at the same time but never actually restored. So 1A sat in storage for years, before they converted it into an Ecto-1 replica for Afterlife, along with a second one for stunt scenes. They also used it in Frozen Empire, so any scenes with Ecto-1 filmed in London (in the firehouse set) were actually using the Ecto-1A. The other Ecto was a later model which was converted to look like a 59 model. The original Ecto-1 hasn't been used for filming since 1989, it's currently rotting away outside on the Sony backlot as the "restoration" gradually disintegrates in the weather. As you said, Cadillac only made around 100 1959 Miller-Meteors. Sony owns 3% of them.

THE MOVIE TIMELINE: Ghostbusters 1 - 1984 Ghostbusters 2 - 1989 Ghostbusters 3: Afterlife - 2021 Ghostbusters 4: Frozen Empire - 2024 THE CARTOON TIMELINE: Ghostbusters 1 - 1984 The Real Ghostbusters (cartoon sequel to Ghostbusters 1) Extreme Ghostbusters (cartoon sequel to The Real Ghostbusters) OTHER: - Ghostbusters: Answer The Call - 2016 (a failed reboot movie that's not part of the main movie series) - Casper - 1995 (Technically, the Casper movie SEEMS to actually be canon to the main Ghostbusters movie series. Even Ghostbusters:Afterlife leaves JUST enough room for it to not be contradicted.)

Sometimes optically printed elements in VFX have their opacity lowered verrry slightly in order to lessen the appearance of surrounding holdout matte lines. This is why Jane could see through the gargoyle at 11:25.

Winston had a much bigger role originally when he was going to be played by Eddie Murphy. When he dropped out his dialogue was cannibalized by the other 3 actors. He was supposed to be an Egyptology PHD that couldnt get a related job, and was the one who would explain what Gozor is due to his expertise.

I have not watched this movie since 1997 when it absolutely terrified me. So we will see if this reaction gives me nightmares. Jane, oil does not explode. The fumes burn, gasoline won't even explode, you can put out a cigarette in gas. There are a lot of haunted hotels, some try to cover it up but most embrace it. The Clown Motel out west is the most famous. JV you just don't believe because you haven't experienced it yet. When something breathes on your neck and whispers in your ear out of thin air you will believe.
