Ecto-1 and Ecto-1A. You could make an argument they bought another one and the original was mothballed.

I could absolutely see Ray buying another one and giving it fancier gadgets.

Looks like they're chasing Slimer through town in the Ecto-1.

As the online GB community seems to be making much of the fact it is the Ecto 1 we see amd not the Ecto 1A I'm hoping that the kids driving the Ecto 1 goes viral online and Ray sees it, prompting the original cast to roll up in a pristine Ecto 1A Ray has been polishing every day since GB2.

That�d be funny

They have literally one scene together, and everyone was so worried about the two of them coming to blows during the filming of that scene that Ramis made sure both of them were legitimately high as gently caress on weed prior to calling action.

I wish I could see footage of Ramis coaching Murray and/or Chase into smoking more weed.

Just imagine. A cast of a Black guy, a Latino guy, a guy in a wheelchair and a GIRL with only one original cast member who doesn't even come out to hunt ghosts much. A certain type of people would come unglued today.

That said I thought EGB was pretty good overall. It's got an episode where an R.L. Stine-alike writes the Cenobites into existence for heaven's sake. My only two issues with the show were the animation quality wasn't great and they never seemed scared of the ghosts very much which kind of took the wind out of the episodes' plots sometimes. Still worth checking out.

I enjoyed how round they made Ray when they did the episode with the original ghostbusters.

Oscar's in his thirties now, if the old characters only have a few minutes of screen time, no need to mention him. He's off, doing whatever it is Oscar Barrett would be doing, instead of Ghostbusters stuff.

As the basis for a sequel I�d use that RGB episode where NYC imports a castle from Ireland or Scotland, and all the ghosts come with it.

that'd be a fun offbeat idea for a Ghostbusters sequel, so it'll never happen.

Afterlife was bad, and I think doing the CGI Harold Ramis Golem is just unspeakably horrific, just like every other time they've brought a dead actor back to life for a movie.

That said, Egon's granddaughter was a lot of fun, and hopefully a sequel won't be so hard up for NOSTALGIA points.

GB2 is worth it entirely for the Rick Moranis Lawyer scene

Moranis and MacNicol are the MVPs. They should have made a movie just about the two of them being weird. Not even as Louis and Janosz, just the two of them playing off each other with whatever weirdo character ideas they have.

It's hilarious that Murray was allegedly the sticking point in getting Ghostbusters 3 made for decades and now he's just...there.

Now he knows he's only gotta show up for a day and a half at most. In '94, they would've wanted him there for at least a couple weeks.

Ghostbusters 2 absolutely feels like a movie that had a chaotic, probably terrible production, and nobody but Dan and Ernie wanted to come back.

Ray Parker Junior's literally singing "hey single ladies, if you're so unhappy in bed that you're imagining sex with a freaky ghosts, you can call me and I'll show up at your apartment and improve your mood. I'm confident that I can outperform your ghost fantasy because I love cumming so much."

And this is not even subtext. As with many movie-related songs of the 1980s, the theme is basically summarizing the plot of the film, where Venkman tries to convince Dana to sleep with him instead of putting Vinz Clortho's key in her gate.

"If you're seeing things running through your head, who you gonna call?"
"Ooh, I hear it likes the girls."
"Don't get caught alone, oh no, when it comes through your door... unless you just want some more."

Why is Ray Parker Junior insinuating that the prospective customer might want to get caught alone with a girl-loving ghost (that also only exists in her mind)? Because, in the movie, Dana is overtaken by a supernatural urge to gently caress Lou Tully.

please, please, his name is Louis.

My late granddad believed that the Twin Towers didn't actually exist by the time he died. So people pretending Stay Puft never happened would happen in a second.

been watching the cartoon again, and I really love "Cry Uncle" where Egon's stuffy uncle guilts him into giving up Ghostbusting. That's a fun episode. Egon's uncle straight-up thinks he's full of poo poo and gets shown that ghosts are real.

I just saw a headline for a review say the movie is "full of heart" which is not something I've ever wanted in a Ghostbusters anything. Have people gaslighted themselves into thinking the original movie was an Amblin production?

When people get older, they start feeling emotions about odd things from their childhood. Doesn't make sense, but it's the only explanation that works for me. I loving love the OG movie and the cartoons, but god drat, imagine feeling emotional when you see Slimer onscreen again. It's weird.
