You’re absolutely right about the messages woven into the comedies. My brother and Harold were very close friends, so I got to know him somewhat. He was an intellectual (Bill Murray too, I think to a lesser extent) who studied philosophy and religion. He called himself Buddhish, a blend of Buddhism and Jewish. I see your appreciation for him, so even though I usually don’t talk about him on sm, I just want to say that he’s one of the best people I’ve ever met: kind, generous, grounded, curious. He would take his car to get the smog check, so I asked him why he didn’t just have an assistant do it. He said he likes to see new places. When my brother was dying from skin cancer, Harold could still make us laugh. Anyway, thanks for your videos, especially this one. Peace.

Harold's dad lived into his 90's, so his passing at age 69 was unexpected, even by him. Just a few years before perhaps unintentionally tempting fate, Harold mentioned during a speaking engagement, that he thought he had a lot of life left, because his dad lived so long.

I recognized it when the one with the multicolored square showed up. Each square represents a different jewel, and each jewel a different tribe.

Thanks for sharing. I was resistant to the idea of a third Ghostbusters movie because its been too long & I really wanted more of a follow up to the 2009 video game, which had all four guys back, with Dan Aykroyd & Harold Ramis contributing to the story. It really felt like the 3rd movie & it added a lot of lore to the Ghostbusters mythology. I was very disappointed when Ivan Reitman confirmed it was no longer canon when they were making Afterlife, which put me off even more. When I did see it, I was having my patience tested because I thought it was taking way too long to get to keep the story going & getting to the original characters, so I wasn't feeling the emotion I was supposed to be feeling when it came to the end. Part of this I think is also because I didn't watch the originals to get in the mood for the new one, & I hadn't seen them in a while. I decided to see it again, but I also made sure to watch the originals first, & play through the 2009 game (even if its no longer officially canon, you still hang out with the original characters), & after seeing it again, I enjoyed it a lot more & felt the emotion I was supposed to feel. I am also glad Bill Murray made peace with him before he passed too. RIP.
