Ghostbusters The Videogame (2009) is essentially Ghostbusters III. It's set in '91 and all the cast returned to voice the characters. You need to do a video on that!

[@mccarthy5825]

It's such a good game. The story is top, the performances are amazing and it really hit it perfectly by putting YOU in as the rookie rather than playing as one of them. The way there seems to be weight to the ghosts, the upgrades to the pack, the buddy system and then amazing little things like Vigo pushing out of the painting and insulting you as you walk by it just icing on the cake. They really made it viable to actually go back and deal with the librarian and to have Stay Puft reappear. Lesser writers would have BUTCHERED this game. Imagine now if Randy and Co had put as much love and energy and polish into Colonial Marines as they did on this.... Without a doubt this game is the best GB game there COULD be.

[@dtape]

I think James and Maso do know about the game. They were basically baiting commenters to mention the video game at the end of this video, mentioning "nothing in between with all the cast returning" for them to look at, seen here 20:03 Remember Maso is a huge Ghostbusters fan.

Probably the neatest thing about Ghostbusters 2 was the scene where they found the river of slime, but then they never really did anything with it for the rest of the movie.

[@donoirfoo]

Eh? The river of slime rose up toward the end, caused all the ghosts in the city and created an impenetrable shell around the museum. The slime from the river is also a major plot mechanic throughout the film.

I'll never understand why this movie gets as much negativity as it does. My friends and I all grew up loving this one as much as the first. Now an adult, I can look back with a more critical eye. Is it quite up to par with the first, no probably not... but it still has a lot to offer. Great moments, a solid soundtrack, awesome ghosts, and a very memorable villain / henchman duo. I look at it like Home Alone 2 or TMNT Secret of the Ooze... Both still a ton of fun with a lot of great story and character expansion, but just a little less of the magic that the property had that first time you saw it.

You probably feel like that because, like you said, you grew up with this and your critical eye is not being as critical as you think. It could also be that, after the first one and the time that passed in between, it didn't match audiences' hype at the time and ended up being marked as a failure. I don't really agree with this tho because even today people who watch it for the first time consider it a bad movie with good stuff in it. Personally I watched it when I was a kid and I remember being extremly disapointed by it. Even at a young age I could tell that they were just trying to replicate the first movie. Now I can see that the whole 90s vibe didn't do it many favors either.

[@tompollockjr144]

@ I'm definitely aware of my nostalgia for it, that's why I've mentioned it. I've seen this movie dozens of times and am aware of it's shortcomings. But I still think it gets treated as a worse movie than it really is. Almost every sequel tries to replicate the original... That's the typical formula. They try to recapture that magic in a bottle. So the thrill and excitement of a new story or world to explore is essentially gone by the time the second one comes around. I don't think that should be held against sequels however. I think alot of the negativity comes from us living in a culture where we like to look back and tear old things down. It's become very popular in the last 7 or 8 years to look back and say "man, that sucked." But meanwhile today our stories are even less creative, and less original than those stories 30 years ago.

[@ScooterinAB]

It's an example of the soullessness of Hollywood. My understanding is that no one wanted to make it. That lack of energy permeates through the whole movie, but there's also the lack of originality. We need to remember though that criticism isn't negativity. This isn't a bad movie; it's just not a good movie because it just remakes a better movie. Force Awakens wasn't a bad movie; it just remade a better movie. Whereas people are absolutely being negative about the 2016 movie because of how poorly it was made, how much it misses the entire point of feminism, and for how much Sony manipulated fans into promoting the movie for them, people are just being critical of this movie over what it is.

[@jamesoblivion]

It's the same movie as the first one, with the same story beats, except none of it is as good. It doesn't expand the scope of the story, nor advance any of the characters, it just resets them all...so Venkman has to woo Dana again, they have to open up the business again, a nerdy guy obsessed with Dana becomes possessed by evil forces again, a government pencil-pusher has them briefly locked up again...it all feels like absolutely minimal effort, and the comedy writing just doesn't spark like the original. Don't get me wrong, I saw GB2 in the theater and absolutely loved it. But I was 9.

[@RichardCano]

The scene where the dark subway tunnel calls Winston's name is one of my favorite moments from the whole series as it's both very hilarious and very spooky.

I loved Ghostbusters 2 when i was little, I had seen the original on VHS and the second was the first film I ever got "hyped" for...however, even at the tender age of nine I knew this film had a huge pothole: No one really cared about He-Man in 1989. I mean I loved him, still do, but there were no kids cheering for He-Man, the world was moving on... by then we had those water-pistols that were so realistic the US police were forced to shoot serval children and then you could only get them from Walsall market, Polly Pocket, the not-as-good "The Movie" Transformers (but I still wanted them), Thundercats and the strange feelings stirred by the older boy next door. He-Man was in the draw with your knickers and the remains of Sideswipe by 1989.

When that voice called out to Winston in the subway tunnel that was some scary sh*t

[@Amitlu]

My favorite whole sequence of GB2

[@somberstricken4424]

I'm definitely in the minority here, but I prefer Ghostbusters 2. I love it. My parents had it recorded on an old VHS from Hbo. I watched it so much as a little kid that certain sounds trigger memories. I did find it very confusing everyone hated the Ghostbusters, and Dana had a baby that wasn't Peter's. It doesn't make sense, but it makes me happy.

[@molcatz9634]

Same! I love both movies equally!

[@connielingus8385]

It does seem a very kid friendly, imaginative, colorful, VFX heavy movie.

[@winelord]

Ghostbusters 1 and 11 are brilliant

[@AnnDVine]

I like when Peter MacNicol awkwardly gestures to the painting and exclaims, "is Vigo!" That's the best bit I reckon

[@TommyWest.]

You are like the buzzing of flies to him.

[@leomunoz529]

When he says "from the upper west side" gets me everytime, idk why, I'm not even from NY.

[@joeynessily]

More fun trivia, the painting in the film is actually a photo. They painted the actor with paints to make him look like a painting so they could both photograph and film it… then when he moved, it didn’t look blue screened etc from the background. The photo/painting is now hanging in the ILM lobby on the Skywalker Ranch.

[@KasumiKenshirou]

I've seen unused scenes where they show Vigo in the painting start out in his classic pose and then start moving around within the painting. It looked a lot cooler than just changing to Vigo's floating head over the river of slime. Not sure why they changed it.

[@danielnagoski5734]

Just came to say this movie is infinitely better than Answer the Call.

[@sjbrooksy45]

2 wasn't as good as the first, but it was still a fun time and felt like a GB movie. And I kinda love Vigo... Like when he is monologing and his henchman is like "yes, I've heard this before". Its good stuff.

[@Amitlu]

A clampchamp reference? They really are up to date on the He-man discourse!

[@Rejukem]

We need a Get Out remake with He-Man characters

[@ikeduno7973]

Ghostbusters is my first movie. My very first. My parents had to keep renting it for baby me, I loved it top to bottom and my pops purchased a pre-home-video rental edition for house use. So I-loved- ghostbusters 2. The soundtrack is a premium banger. It is so cool.

[@JoeFF85]

As a kid I definitely thought GBII was scarier than GB. The scene where Ray got possessed and had that big misshapen Vigo head legitimately filled me with dread every time I watched the film.

[@georgeparker8198]

They missed the best joke in the movie: Dana: Okay, but after dinner, don't put any of those old cheap moves on me. It's different now. PVenkman: Oh, no! I have all NEW cheap moves.

[@gerasandoval8649]

The SPongebob movie sounds amazing, yeah do that one

[@grego15]

I don't understand why they don't comment on the fact that officially Ghostbusters 3 was in fact a video game. The entire cast came back for it and it's full of dialogue and it expanded on the universe and the game really plays like a movie you can find edits on KZbin of the playthrough that have been made fans into a movie. And just like they say about cartoons, cartoons are like movies with unlimited budgets so you get to experience the lore and locations and weaponry Etc they couldn't afford to film and cut out of the movies. My birthday is Halloween and I'm always told by my parents were watching Ghostbusters at the hospital right before I was born. I don't know but being born in the 80s all my friends and myself were huge Ghostbuster fans and have all the toys. I refuse to throw them away! I also want to comment, I don't know if it's just my neighborhood or the times we live in but when I was a child it was almost as if you couldn't drive through the streets of neighborhoods on Halloween because of the massive amount of kids dressed up trick-or-treating running through the neighborhoods to see who could collect the most candy. I remember neighbors would convert their houses into mazes for the kids to go through for jump-scares . The past 10 years we get maybe one knock on the door.... is trick-or-treating not a thing anymore?

[@DextroDNAOfficial]

Cringe

[@craiglee5460]

I can’t un-notice the springs on the bottom of the toaster. Noticed them yeeeeeears ago on a rewatch. Never not unsaw them again.

[@heelmoxley365]

Maso’s rant at the start being before Blue Harvest existed is hilarious.😂😂😂

[@myohmyDesign]

Suck in the guts guys, I hope you do the video game next!

[@TheDarkNateReturns]

agreed, though it definitely is NOT garbage

[@CrowTRobot]

Go. Yes, I think, go. Yes, the joyfulness is over

[@mccarthy5825]

@@TheDarkNateReturns too right Nate, what an amazing story and married with super fun gameplay. You could almost FEEL the strain of pulling some ghosts towards you...i know there's a remaster but a total overhaul and updated version with extra levels and the missing parade level and the haptic feedback and all would be put if this world.

[@uosdwiSrdewoH]

I have a real soft spot for Ghosbusters 2. It was one of the few movies my dad taped off TV so I watched it many times and it's all very nostalgic for me.

[@VillainBoss24]

The 2016 review became a ghost

[@stevenpick9451]

Ghostbusters 3 was the videogame, I believe. Had a lot of the weird dimensional shit in there. Also you could talk to the Vigo painting and Max Von Sydow had many things to say every time you interacted with it.

[@jtbdemo]

low key joke missed: when Dana describes her sad bitter divorce and egon secretly records emotions. He doesn't even pretend to care about her and peter.

[@connielingus8385]

That was actually a brilliant Egon moment in the sequel. Ramis delivered.

[@JamesWVanFleet]

I'm shocked they didn't say my favorite line in the whole movie. "We had part of a Slinky... but I straightened it."

[@Takeshi357]

Nah, she asks Egon if Peter ever mentions her and he says "no" and she's like "oh" and then holds up the scanning thing up at her behind her back.

[@Rydonattelo]

When I was a kid I was absolutely positive that Winston was played by a different actor. He just looks so different here.

[@alexpollock6932]

Did they ever talk about the script they signed on to make? They talked about Dan’s first draft but that was never happening

[@davishall307]

Finally it’s my favorite time of the year BLOODY TAX TIME!!

[@Bingo_the_Pug]

I don’t care what anyone says, I’ll always love this movie just as much as the 1st. These movies were my childhood

[@VonDiesel3768]

I just rewatched this video. I always love Caravan of Garbage, but I couldn't disagree more with James & Maso. They said they loved it as kids and didn't expect it to be as bad as it is. They say it's not funny. So, I rewatched Ghostbusters 2 for the first time in probably 15-20 years, and it was great. It's not laugh out loud funny, what movie is after you've seen it once or twice before? But it was definitely funny. Bill Murray and Harold Ramis are constantly cracking out funny comments. It's not as funny as the original, but I didn't see the huge lack of chemistry they said was there. It's not as good as the original Full Stop. However, it's a damn good sequel that's fun all the way through and leaps and bounds over 2016, Afterlife, and Frozen Empire. Not mad at James or Maso, they did their job and made another great Caravan of Garbage episode, even if I disagree with their overall impression.

[@japanduran]

You need to include the 2009 Ghostbusters: The Videogame! The original cast are back (including William Atherton, Annie Potts AND Max Von Sydow) and Dan Aykroyd said that the game is canon, and was loosely based on a older script that was rejected that was going to be Ghostbusters 3. SO it's basically Ghostbusters 3 mate! Let's ghOOOOOOOOOOOO....stbust out of here.

[@mccarthy5825]

Remember how Vigo pushes out of the painting and insults you when you walk by? 👌

[@KasumiKenshirou]

@@mccarthy5825 Why is the Vigo painting back? At the end of Ghostbusters II it becomes a painting of the four Ghostbusters and Oscar.

[@mccarthy5825]

@@KasumiKenshirou absolutely no idea my friend. I actually seen the real one of the four of them at the short lived Planet Hollywood in Dublin. I csnt remember if there's an explanation but he just pokes his head out (sort of like in the film) and insults you a few times. In my head canon, just like the librarian ghost was there and Marshmallow man, I like to think the events preceding the game sort of 'reset' the ghosts. But who knows?

[@charlietaylor3152]

Comments are off on the new video so I guess I’ll leave this here. I guess the real ghostbusters (2016) were the Ghostbusters 3 we made along the way… Not my best work, but you work with what you’ve got!

[@samrockw2256]

Another great episode, would be cool if one day you decided to do a vid with some video footage of you guys!

[@winelord]

Please no

Dudes Evolution is a great underrated film.

[@claymathewselevator8121]

Ernie Hudson played Diggle’s stepfather Roy Stewart on Arrow

[@EpicJasonX9000]

I think that Ghostbusters II, similar to TMNT II Secret Of The Ooze, is a good sequel to a great film. not better than the original, but still has enough to be enjoyable and far more watchable than the later films that have been released further down the road.

[@VideoClubRandom]

Although the sequel might not be as good as the first one. But it must be said that "On Our Own" by Bobby Brown is infinitely better than the original song by Ray Parker Jr...

[@JamesWVanFleet]

I really like that interaction with Bobby Brown where he asks if his kid brother can have a proton pack. Egon: "The proton pack is not a toy." Ray: "...I guess he's right."

[@garinhash]

Ghostbusters: the video game from 2009 was considered by Dan Aykroyd and the fans to be the official "3rd movie". the game got back all the original actors for their voices including the return of walter peck, the game is considered by the fans to be an amazing game, its super fun and has a high replay value, when playing on Steam you can unlock the dark charcoal color uniforms and if you complete the game on the hardest difficulty you can unlock a golden proton pack.

[@the_scotch]

I'm a big fan of another Egon bit, where they're examining the kids bedroom, and he says "My parents didn't believe in fun". The delivery was perfect.

[@ScooterinAB]

I liked that whole part and the Slinky line, and believe that this is something Egon would have done. Runner up if him taking away the puppy, because he is the worst scientist.

[@CactusJackIV]

New He-Man is better than old, and I was born in 1980, and love He-Man. What Kevin Smith made was a little different, but I think too many people jumped on the "hate train" because of a Kevin Smith interview.

[@claudegrenier3180]

Its mostly because of the manbabies from the "fandom menace" crowd. They are very vocal and annoying... but ultimately very irrelevant and gullible lol

[@nickblack2006]

Im with you guys, Kevin smiths He-man is his best work and the best version of He-man toxic masculinity, Cant wait for the 2nd half, down with the hierarchy...

I'd love to see you guys review Happy Gilmore and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Either of those would be an entertaining review.

Dark City would be good before The Matrix 4 comes out.

[@mrmacross]

I was 10 years old when the movie came out, and I thought the kids chanting He-Man was off because I knew He-Man was nowhere near its peak popularity.

[@strawberryrhubarbs]

This movie was how I first heard of He-Man

[@KasumiKenshirou]

My uncle even asked my brother at the time, "Do kids really still like He-Man?", and he told them he didn't.

[@CardboardKitchen]

I'm pretty confident that none of these videos have ever been something, but nice to know the guys are checking in on it from time to time to see if they are actually something or nothing.

[@purehyperbole5727]

I guess everyone wasn't civil in the comments for Ghostbuster 2016.
