Yes it took me 10 years to understand the irony of him being the key master and another ten years to get the sexual undertones in the key master vs the gate keeper. What a script, man..
Rick Moranis who played the key master, was a really big star. Honey I shrunk the Kids and many more. Then he dropped out of hollywood. Why? His wife passed from cancer. He decided to quit hollywood and raise his two kids full time. Thats a real man right there! Thanks for the reactions
And after his last on screen appearance a quarter of a century ago and his last voice role over 15 years ago, Rick Moranis is soon to reprise his role as Wayne Szalinski in "Shrunk", a new "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids"!! I can't wait to see him on the big screen again personally
Yes, there's a Ghostbusters 2 which is worth a watch. There's a re-imaging which came out around 2016, most fans deny its very existence (wisely so). The true third part came last year with 'Ghostbusters - Afterlife', and is a must see.
2016 was so so so bad…I couldn’t even finish it. I had to turn it off. And I’ve only done that with a couple of movies throughout my life. It was so so so bad 🤦🏼♀️ Afterlife was really good though. I really enjoyed it !!
2016 was a waste of a talented cast. It has moments of brilliance and hilarity, and the effects were good, but it suffered from some serious errors in concept and direction that made the whole thing a failure.
I love Asia’s laugh it’s contagious, I smile every time she laughs. FYI the gatekeeper is female and the key master is male. Gotta stick the key in the lock to open the gate. When you add the fact that Louis (key master) is constantly locking himself out of his apartment, comedy brilliance.
My favorite part of this movie is that Winston is immediately treated like an equal and no one ever mentions he is black. It's beautiful equality. The only sideways reference to it is when he tells the mayor "I've seen shit that would turn you white." He is the perfect "everyman" in the company of these weirdo scientists.
When this came out my best friend was suffering from severe anxiety and depression. -he- we watched this movie over and over to combat it. Ghostbusters was a good short-term treatment for his depression.
If you watch this one, and then the sequel, and then "Afterlife" you might catch yourself crying during Afterlife. Means very little if someone just watches Afterlife, but after watching the original 2, the series bonds to your heart.
1984 was a great year for movies. Ghostbusters, Red Dawn, Terminator, Dune, a nightmare on elm street, The Karate Kid, Beverly hills cop, Police Academy, Gremlins, footloose, sixteen candles, romancing the stone, Revenge of the nerds, the natural, and many more.
People miss the fact that *Egon & Peter* were condemning the firehouse trying to get it for a cheaper price. When *Ray* came down the fire pole & ruined the negotiation
Asia, they were the gate keeper and key master simply because of the apartments that they occupied. Once they got together and had sex, it opened the gate and released Gozer into the world. And Peter used science as a way to con people and not do any work. He would have been happy to stay at the college and use Science to hit on college girls. When the busting came along, he used it to make money, period. They charged a lot of money to catch ghost. As Peter said, "No ghost is too big, and no FEE is too big." That there was real ghost was just a way to over charge people.
As an 80's baby I'm having a blast rewatching these movies. Looking forward to all the movies to come. My new favorite thing is hearing Asia crack up lol...it's infectious 😆🤣
The thing he has in her apartment is a "sniffer" device that detects traces of stuff in the air. Like how Ray said in the library "Listen! Do you smell something?" Some spirits are said to leave traces of odors (ozone smell, or something else specific).
I was visiting New York/America for the first time in ten years last month - and I went to the Ghostbusters HQ, which is a real working 'ladder' (fire station). Just inside the front door, beside where the crew sits by the fire engine, waiting for a call out, is a *ton* of Ghostbusters merchandise - endless badges, car registration plates, etc. They even have the large Lego firehouse model of the firehouse! Outside, a couple of modified Ghostbusters logos are painted on the footpath/pavement. So, yes, very much keeping the legacy going, there...
I was ten years old in 1984 and I can't express how HUGE this movie was. I even dressed up as the "no ghost" sign for Halloween. Make sure to check out the music video for the song Ghostbusters.
@Vern Sherris It was an old computer made mostly for programming. For gaming Commodore 64 had a better graphic for games at that times. You can find many videos on UA-cam. Nothing to do with what we got now! 😁
Dana is the "gatekeeper" because the secret route to the temple is in her kitchen hidden behind the fridge. The "keymaster" apartment is the last one before hers. There's also not so subtle sexual inuendo in their titles.... A "locked gate(or *ahem* "hole") and the *cough* phallic "key" to opening it. Also, Director Ivan Reitman ran into William Atherton(EPA guy) a few years later thinking he'd happily welcome the success of the movie, But Atherton said the role made his life absolutely miserable. When he was recognized in public, any and everyone would talk shit to him.... oh, And I do mean EVERYONE. He quit going to bars because someone would inevitably taunt and/or try to assault him. Even when stuck in traffic, kids that recognized him would throw stuff out school bus windows, and yell "hey! dickless!"
This was a ton of fun, I forgot how funny Bill Murray is in this. It was actually written by Dan Aykroyd (Ray) and Harold Ramis (Egon). They made a kids cartoon and toy line out of it (yes I had some of the toys and went as a ghostbuster for Halloween one year, lol) as well as a part 2, and just last year they released a part 3 with Ghostbusters: Afterlife, but part 1 was always the best.
We absolutely have to check out the sequels to this!! This was actually more funny than it was scary!! It’s really fun to see how much these movies influenced us at the time (1984-present) and even as old as this movie is, every kid I know to this day knows who or what Ghostbusters were! Thanks so much for watching with us!! ❤️❤️
@@ReelinwithAsiaandBJ , I actually think Afterlife was a VERY good movie. Somehow I missed Ghostbusters 2, but just ordered it to complete the set since it was only $5.99. There was another 2016 movie "Ghostbusters: Answer The Call", that starred Melissa McCarthy, this one should be avoided at all costs.
@@musicluvr70 we just watched the recent Ghostbusters and I was afraid it would suck, but it was actually VERY good!!! It even made me cry. I was so glad they were able to create something that was actually good. My kids love Ghostbusters, we watch it ALL the time !! Ghostbusters 2 was good also, but nothing beats the original 🚫👻🚫
@@michele36618, I may have wiped a tear or two watching it also, but I always use the excuse I'm old. LOL Fortunately (or unfortunately) there is never anyone around to see them.
The actor who plays the EPA inspector who lets the ghosts loose is also in the movie "Die Hard," which should be on your list, if you haven't seen it. IMO, the best movie with Bill Murray in it is "Groundhog Day," but he's in a lot of films. Sigourney Weaver is best known, of course, for playing the lead in "Alien" and "Aliens." Dan Aykroyd is probably best known for his roles in "The Blues Brothers" and "Trading Places."
I love 1980s movies. That decade is goldmine for classic films. Almost every modern movie, genre, actor/actress, in the business today owes their success to 80s movies.
Asia and BJ, you commented about how Ghostbusters came out in 1984. To give it some historical context, this came out on the heels of two major film franchises that very summer: Indiana Jones and The Temple of Doom and Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. And it was right before some other great movies that same summer like The Karate Kid, Dune, The Last Starfighter, and The Terminator. So the fact that it went against these great movies and wound up be a blockbuster that summer of ‘84 is a tremendous feat.
This is my first time watching a Ghostbuster reaction, and it's gotta be one of my favourite movie reactions ever! You guys are great, thanks for the laughs!! The ghost of the kitchen 😂 80s movies were so good
I love all the characters in this movie, this is one of my favorite movies for a long time. Bill Murray really kills it with his casual way of not taking anything seriously. Rick Moranis was also in Spaceballs - which is another hilarious movie spoof on Star Wars.
I watched this movie for 3 decades now. It was brought to my attention recently that the guy who locked himself out was the key master. It reaffirms my belief that this movie was very well written.
Ghostbusters 2 was filmed in 1989. This time dana has a son named Oscar, and the villan vigo wants to possess his body. This original cast is back for the 2nd movie
This is a movie that should be watched many times for the all surrounding comedy. Foreground and background, verbal and non verbal. This is my all time favorite, number one movie of all time. It's got romance, comedy, sci fi and action- everything. I watch it at least once a year. I'm a bit bias because I'm from this city, but it's an undeniable classic. Nothing beats the original, but part 2 and afterlife(part3) are a must watch!
So glad you two watched. This movie is classic..and had the best comedians of our time 80s in it. This movie was just an awesome ride of fun. The whole cast from Annie Potts to Ernie Hudson delivered their lines that you couldn't help but love this movie.
I saw this in the theaters in '84, I was 5 years old, I loved it. My cousin, same age, climbed under the seat, he was so scared of the gargoyle dogs. So many great movies from the 80's. I found you two the other day and have really enjoyed your reactions to the vids I've watched so far.
Asia & BJ Headquarters for Ghostbusters is actual fire station in NYC. When son, Jason Reitman of original director and producer, Ivan Reitman decided to create Ghostbuster: Afterlife, during press junket, actors held an interview at the station.
Awesome reaction!!! I love how clever and subtle the adult elements are in this, when I was 4 in 84' all the rude stuff didn't register at all, but as I got older all the stuff like Peter being hit on by Zuul(legit thought She just wanted to eat Him😅), the Ghost giving Ray an astral bl*wj*b in His dreams, and the way the Boys refer to their Neutrona Wands like extensions of their own junk in the final battle, among a other euphemisms, has truly been a trip over the years. All hidden behind great editing and dialog delivery. Perfectly executed Family Film that isn't afraid to cater to everyone. They don't make them this well-written anymore, alas...💖💖💖
Got some recs for ya: - Groundhog Day (Bill Murray again!) - The Jerk (Steve Martin; Brilliant funny guy. Someone else suggested Little Shop of Horrors and he's great in that too.) -Planes, Trains & Automobiles (Steve Martin and John Candy, another iconic funny guy. He's the star of Uncle Buck, which someone else already recommended too)
I was born 1986, two years after that film. When I was small, I always wanted to see that film, because my older brothers had toys and merchandise from it. Also here in Europe it is pretty big. At least one or two reruns of the films on German telly, the soundtrack famous... everything... I still remember my first girlfriend´s graduation ball, where the soundtrack was played and after every "Who you gonna call?" "GHOSTBUSTERS!!!!"
Near the end, after the defeat of Stay Puft, Asia asks why Venkman isn't as covered in marshmallow goo. The reason is that earlier in the movie, Venkman got "Slimed" by the first ghost they caught. Actor Bill Murray found the experience disgusting and had the director promise that he would not have to suffer like that at the end.
Never forget that Dan Ackroyd is a Blues Brother and this soundtrack slaps with R&B tracks because he insisted on it. He even got Bobby Brown to do the theme for the sequel!
FUN FACTOID: At one point in the movie, "American Top 40" DJ Casey Kasem was doing a radio show, where he was talking about the Ghostbusters. At Louis' party, Louis was dancing with a lady in a pink outfit. That lady is Casey Kasem's real-life wife Jean Thompson-Kasem.
Yep, the part that shot back and melted the marshmallow man was just the muzzle flash. The part that Gozer’s dimension suffered was several orders of magnitude more destructive.
A bad business decision was to bring along Ray when they were looking to buy the empty building. That's why most parents looking at homes leave their kids behind at their home. Yup, I just called Dr. Ray Stance a kid.😂
Funny story. There were copyright issues iver the title, and Columbia was going to have to dish out money and were balking at the price. So, they filmed the ground level entrance to the apartment early. The producer got the studio execs on a pay phone as the crowd is cheering and chanting Ghostbusters. So they could get a taste of what would be on film. Needless to say, they forked over the cash.
Rick Moranis has given us so many amazing childhood memories. I don't blame him in any way for leaving the industry to be with his family. He doesn't owe us anything
This was a really chill reaction. I saw folks who wondered why there were ghosts in the movie or did not understand what a comedy is. And so many offended about Venkman's antics lmao.
Asia, you commented on something from the movie by saying "they said/did this in 1984??" GIRL, nothing was off limits back in the day and nobody was excluded which is why EVERYTHING was so much more hilarious. Most of the stuff we grew up watching would NEVER have been made today because everyone is such wusses.
So true..ive watched younger people react to this movie and its amazing how they take some of the jokes/characters so seriously and their reactions are borderline offended if not straight up. Makes me cringe...these are fictional characters with dialogue written by comedians with a certain situational context, in this case a group of goofy scientists who try to trap weird ghosts and all with particular personalities to fit the comedic situation. Take it for exactly what it is young people...
@@sorensmith9873 Yeah, honestly the meanest (and least ethical esp when considering the loss to science)thing done in this film is what Venkman does to that poor male ESP volunteer and all because he wants to get into a coeds pants. I mean that guy was the REAL DEAL and Venkman could care less.
Yes, all the shows from the 70s and 80s humor was great. Today's shows don't last long are are forgotten but the classics are classics because they were awesome and manage to last decades.
@@figrindantatooine Some shows last decades (2013-purportedly ongoing) & still suck (TTG on CN for example [as a shipper, BBXRAE is the only thing saving that dreck]).
You guys did an amazing job reacting! It’s like you’ve been doing it a long time. You didn’t talk too much, just the right amount, you did a great job editing and it was fun to watch with you. Such a classic movie!
@@ReelinwithAsiaandBJ Totally agree with Carolyn!! New subscriber here! If you haven't seen Boondock Saints yet, it is my all time favorite St. Paddy's Day film (I know I'm not alone). It does have a sequel. There's action, comedy, and Norman Reedus.
Considering the ... suggestive adult situations , the smoking , the deadpan jokes -- and that all of it was in a kids & young adults movie that adults could enjoy as well --- it's just a signature 1980's movie , that didn't preach, and didn't think that it's audience was dumb .
"Dogs and Cats Living Together!!! Total Chaos!!!" - Peter. Ghostbusters 2 is good too IMO!!! Lewis is in that one too.Bobby Brown did the song On Our Own for the soundtrack. A real Bopper.
Probably been said before, but watch Ghistbusters II, then watch Afterlife. It is truly a great movie and a fitting closing to the series. This movie was fun and comical, but Afterlife gets you in the feels!
Good job BJ & Asia. Enjoyed watching with you all. Hey Bill Murray had a funny movie with actor Richard Dreyfuss called "What About Bob" and another of his was "Tootsie" a 1982 movie hit starring Dustin Hoffman, Jessica Lange and Bill Murray. Sigourney you know she has a lot of movies, starting with "Alien". Oh my I have a ton of movies I'd love to see your reactions to.
If you want to go back to the 80's and 90's work of Sigourney Weaver, consider "The Year of Living Dangerously" (1982) where she stars with Linda Hunt, Mel Gibson, and Michael Murphy, and "The Ice Storm" (1997) with Kevin Kline and Joan Allen.
Hey guys, I stumbled upon you a channel today. Just want to say I seen Ghostbusters 100 times, I'm 42 years old but grew up with this movie. Watching it with you guys was like experiencing it for the first time all over again and it was a lot of fun. You guys are great team and looking forward to exploring more of your channel. It was a lot of fun. Great job. Asia you have a beautiful smile.
yes. thanks for dropping this this morning 🌄. I'm fixing to do some chores around the house and this is perfect to listen to! I was 11 when this came out but didn't see it till it came out for rent on VHS. I did have a cute pair of Ghostbusters jammies I bought in the mal at Rave...... Oh the good old days.
No worries grl Im 58 yrs young, stay young at heart and u'll never age. Such a great fun classic. All such great actors and work so well together. R.I.P. Harold Ramis. Workin' with a scientific paranormal group and Cherokee Shaman for over a decade, I def went from skeptic to believer. Just wish what I experienced was as fun as theirs, lol. Thanx so much, take care, Peace
It is soooo much fun watching y'all watch movies that I've seen, and you reacting just like I did. Especially Silence of the Lambs and Jaws! It makes me so happy. Y'all are such a great couple.😍
18 year old just entering college me giving a brief review of this movie in 1984. Ghostbusters, an irreverant comedy featuring Bill Murray in the quinitential Bill Murray role as the charming smartass that only Bill Murray can play. 57 year old 40 years of adult life later me giving a brief review of this movie today. Ghostbusters, a cautionary tale about the arrogance and overbearingness of United States federal regulatory agency officials.
I had read once that the soundtrack to this movie also held a record as to the number of #1 hits on the billboard charts. 🙂Yeah! The recent Ghostbusters : Afterlife is a must see! 😲
@@sweetkiss119 Haters or people with a different opinion? The all female remake was awful compared to the original. How is it they have to piggyback all this woke nonsense onto success of people who are no longer diverse enough, namely white men? If it is such a good idea and has merit then make new movies and characters that push that agenda instead if hijacking what was great and universally loved by all to pander to a tiny minority of bed wetter's?
@@Muckylittleme I too hate remakes and reboots. But ghostbusters 2 is not a remake or reboot. Is it as good as the original? Nope but it still has its moments. And I just watched ghostbusters afterlife and I loved it. The female one was dumb so we agree on that. Seems you have some hatred for white people given that you just had to point out color so I don’t think their is anything left for us to discuss. I don’t judge a movie or a person on color or their beliefs cause that’s how I was raised. But sure sounds like you do. So sad
Couple points of note: Louis Tully was originally to be played by John Candy Winston Zedmore was originally to be played by Eddie Murphy Gozer was originally to be played by Paul Ruebens (Pee Wee Herman)
So happy to hang out and watch movies again with you this week! Ghostbusters is so fun, and an absolute classic. Still crossing my fingers for Lord of the Rings!
A detail many miss is when Dana is first being interviewed with the colander sensor on her head, the monitor shows a "heat profile" view of her head. Later, when possessed Louis had been dropped off at Ghostbusters HQ and is wearing the colander sensor, the monitor shows the "heat profile" of Vinz Clortho (the Terror Dog "Keymaster" minion of Gozer).
Open endings like the end of this movie happened all the time in the 80's. If they proved popular enough, in time, movies, or more often, comic books would swoop in to do that continued "what if" story and keep things going for a while. There are two direct movie sequels, Ghostbusters II, and Ghostbusters Afterlife that just came out within the last year. There is also a Ghostbusters Cartoon series that took cannon ideas from both two movies and kept things going for at least 4 years of shows. Extreme Ghostbusters that fallowed that show latter on for another 2-3 years, Ghostbusters The Video Game that played out as a Ghostbusters III that came out in 09, and continued things 10 years after II. And there is talk of Afterlife continuing on with 2 more movies as they finish working out the scripts, and a planned cartoon series to fill in the down time between movies.
You know what is funny. You will notice how the 2 terror dogs are similar to the 2 they possess. Zuul the female terror dog who possesses Dana is very methodical, silent & to the point. The possession was quick, swift & silent Now Vinz Clortho, the male terror dog who possesses Louis is the opposite. Very loud, clumsy & reckless. I thought that was kind of funny
The fire station is a real FDNY station in Tribeca, several blocks North of the World Trade Centre. The Tavern On the Green restaurant is in Central Park not far from Dana's apartment building. The restaurant scene makes fun of New Yorkers being indifferent while weird stuff occurs around them.
I was 11 when this came out in the theater, still love this movie. The special effects are ok now, but back then it was amazing. Also might check out Alien and Aliens both with Sigourney Weaver (Dana) she is a bad a%% , they did make Ghostbusters 2.
I think thy still hold up. Not a bit of CGI, just talent and practical expert craftsmanship. Helps to see it on the early DVD pressing. This Blu-ray upscale with the more greenish "color corrected"🙄 tint kind spoils some of the Animatronic and Claymation elements, and makes the superimposed passes not look as translucent is they should. The Library Ghost is FAR more see-thru' on the DVD. The lines are too defined and janky on this version. 💖
Such a great reaction! You two are so cute in your enjoyment, loved seeing this! There's just something satisfying watching someone see one of your favorite movies for the first time. Definitely check out "Honey I Shrunk the Kids" for more of Lewis (Rick Moranis; a comedy genius in his own right) it's a great funny comedy. It's nice this movie holds up PRETTY well--though Venkman is honestly pretty gross with women by today's standards, and Winston (Ernie Hudson) was CRIMINALLY underused and was apparently treated badly on the movie, which makes me really sad.
I loved your reaction guys, and if you liked this you oughta check Strange Brew (with Rick Moranis who was Louis) or Stripes (that had Bill Murray and Harold Ramis). Super funny movies that have been overlooked.
My favorite Elmer Bernstein score. Love that Reginald VelJohnson is the police officer in the jail. He portrays a police officer in 3 major cities, New York("Ghostbusters"), Los Angeles("Die Hard") and Chicago("Family Matters").
I grew up in New York City, my father worked in a building on the upper west side. I saw this movie in theaters when I was really really little, like kindergarten little. I knew that building was a real building. You can't imagine my disappointment when I found out I couldn't actually be a Ghostbuster when I grew up. I love this this movie, it reminds me of the New York I grew up in.
I smiled sooo much through this😁🥰 because it reminds me of them ole days!! 😂 And by the end my smile was bursting with pride and joy for you both, at the amazing job you're doing up in here... Y'ALL WERE BORN TO DO THIS!!!🔥❤️🔥❤️ love it! sooo proud!😍
Great reaction to one of my favorite movies. I was nine years old when this came out in the summer of 1984 and saw it in a packed theater. It was a blast. I am still shocked you guys didn't know who Bill Murray was. This movie made him a household name and a big star. LOL.
Rick Moranis (the quirky neighbor) stole the show, in my opinion. I want a chocolate bar & graham crackers. There is a sequel. The effects were pretty good for a 1984 comedy. Great reaction! I still laugh at this though I've seen it several times! Thanks! I would love for you to react to THE BIG CHILL.
My personal theory is that ectoplasm is marshmallow repellent. Early in the movie, Venkman gets slimed. He's the only one who does. Skip to the end of the movie, and after the Sta-Puft Marshmallow Man explodes, the other three ghostbusters are covered pretty much head to toe with marshmallow, but Venkman, who was right there with them, barely has any on him. Obviously, his previous coating of ectoplasm (slime) gave him a protective layer against marshmallow. :)
that thing he was doing in her apartment was testing for gas leaks, its called a "sniffer", it was a more logical approach to make sure theres no chemical or gas leaks causing her to hallucinate
Musical fact for ya . Huey Lewis and the News sued over the Ghostbusters theme and won. It was determined that the tune was a sped up version of I want a new drug done by Huey Lewis
Dan aykroyd was in the movie the blues brothers with John belushi And bill Murray was in the movie stripes With Harold ramis Who plays Egon in this movie In rick moranis Play dark helmet In space balls
Bill Murray and for the life of me I'm blanking out on the actor's name who played Venkman but they're together in stripes John Candy god the guy who played Dan on Night Court is in it
There's both a sequel (two now, counting this year's "Ghostbusters: Afterlife"), three cartoon series, a few games, a ton of comicbooks, and a "Meh" reboot attempt in 2016 (you can ignore that one).
Yes ..They had a great sequel "Ghostbusters 2" still has The Secretary, Louis Tully, and Dana Barrett played by Sigourney Weaver and all the Ghostbusters
Great reaction! There is a sequel and it’s actually my fav it lined more up with my age range and had lil better effects better villain and a Bobby Brown soundtrack and cameo
@@gmunden1 I know I have the vinyl but ghostbusters 2 theme song was Bobby Brown...it went well I guess we’re gonna have to take control not sure what it was called...Bobby Browns cameo was he was the door man at a building that ask for a proton pack for his little brother
Such a classic. In 1991 Rick Moranis retired from acting to concentrate on being a dad after sadly his wife died. This movie provided the break-out role for the great Ernie Hudson who had mostly been in small tv roles before this. Does anyone think the toasted Stay Puft Marshmallow man tasted good after he exploded?
Love the fact that Louis is "the Key Master" and is always locking himself out. 😹
I’ve been watching this movie all my life
This is first time I thought about this
Thanks for that 🤣
@@UnlicensedOkie You bet! 🔑
Now that is ironic.
I'd like to know why Venkman had thorizine to go on his first date with Dana?!
Yes it took me 10 years to understand the irony of him being the key master and another ten years to get the sexual undertones in the key master vs the gate keeper. What a script, man..
Rick Moranis who played the key master, was a really big star. Honey I shrunk the Kids and many more. Then he dropped out of hollywood. Why? His wife passed from cancer. He decided to quit hollywood and raise his two kids full time.
Thats a real man right there!
Thanks for the reactions
got beat down at random on a nyc street about a year ago..

My favorite part of this movie is that Winston is immediately treated like an equal and no one ever mentions he is black. It's beautiful equality. The only sideways reference to it is when he tells the mayor "I've seen shit that would turn you white." He is the perfect "everyman" in the company of these weirdo scientists.
Yeah, it was the ‘80’s. That’s how I remember it used to be.
"Why was he the Key Master and her the Gate Keeper?" LOL ... the innocence of this question is both endearing and hilarious!
When this came out my best friend was suffering from severe anxiety and depression. -he- we watched this movie over and over to combat it. Ghostbusters was a good short-term treatment for his depression.
If you watch this one, and then the sequel, and then "Afterlife" you might catch yourself crying during Afterlife. Means very little if someone just watches Afterlife, but after watching the original 2, the series bonds to your heart.

Asia, they were the gate keeper and key master simply because of the apartments that they occupied. Once they got together and had sex, it opened the gate and released Gozer into the world. And Peter used science as a way to
con people and not do any work. He would have been happy to stay at the college and use Science to hit on college girls. When the busting came along, he used it to make money, period. They charged a lot of money to catch ghost. As Peter said, "No ghost is too big, and no FEE is too big." That there was real ghost was just a way to over charge people.
As an 80's baby I'm having a blast rewatching these movies. Looking forward to all the movies to come. My new favorite thing is hearing Asia crack up lol...it's infectious 😆🤣
The thing he has in her apartment is a "sniffer" device that detects traces of stuff in the air. Like how Ray said in the library "Listen! Do you smell something?" Some spirits are said to leave traces of odors (ozone smell, or something else specific).
Yeah, though an actual sniffer is used to detect natural gas leaks, this one might be modified to detect paranormal gases.
if you smell sulphur beware ...
Perfume, flowers, cigar smoke.....when there is nobody around...all are smells tied to ghosts
I was visiting New York/America for the first time in ten years last month - and I went to the Ghostbusters HQ, which is a real working 'ladder' (fire station). Just inside the front door, beside where the crew sits by the fire engine, waiting for a call out, is a *ton* of Ghostbusters merchandise - endless badges, car registration plates, etc. They even have the large Lego firehouse model of the firehouse! Outside, a couple of modified Ghostbusters logos are painted on the footpath/pavement. So, yes, very much keeping the legacy going, there...
I was ten years old in 1984 and I can't express how HUGE this movie was. I even dressed up as the "no ghost" sign for Halloween. Make sure to check out the music video for the song Ghostbusters.
Definitely an amazing time. I was like three when this came out.
Funny, I was ten years old too and everybody was talking about this movie.
@Vern Sherris I even got the game on my Spectum! Old times! 😂
@Vern Sherris It was an old computer made mostly for programming. For gaming Commodore 64 had a better graphic for games at that times. You can find many videos on UA-cam. Nothing to do with what we got now! 😁
Dana is the "gatekeeper" because the secret route to the temple is in her kitchen hidden behind the fridge. The "keymaster" apartment is the last one before hers. There's also not so subtle sexual inuendo in their titles.... A "locked gate(or *ahem* "hole") and the *cough* phallic "key" to opening it.
Also, Director Ivan Reitman ran into William Atherton(EPA guy) a few years later thinking he'd happily welcome the success of the movie, But Atherton said the role made his life absolutely miserable. When he was recognized in public, any and everyone would talk shit to him.... oh, And I do mean EVERYONE. He quit going to bars because someone would inevitably taunt and/or try to assault him. Even when stuck in traffic, kids that recognized him would throw stuff out school bus windows, and yell "hey! dickless!"
😂
Kids calling him d¡ckIess, huh? He could've proved them wrong by dropping his pants... 🤣🤣🤣🤣
"That would be bad"..."All right, important safety tip." Best. Lines. Ever. My nerdy friends and I still say that to each other.
"Dogs and cats living together....MASS HYSTERIA!!!!!"
One of the timeless greats of my childhood. I can watch these two movies over an over again.
This was a ton of fun, I forgot how funny Bill Murray is in this. It was actually written by Dan Aykroyd (Ray) and Harold Ramis (Egon).
They made a kids cartoon and toy line out of it (yes I had some of the toys and went as a ghostbuster for Halloween one year, lol) as well as a part 2, and just last year they released a part 3 with Ghostbusters: Afterlife, but part 1 was always the best.
We absolutely have to check out the sequels to this!! This was actually more funny than it was scary!! It’s really fun to see how much these movies influenced us at the time (1984-present) and even as old as this movie is, every kid I know to this day knows who or what Ghostbusters were! Thanks so much for watching with us!! ❤️❤️
@@ReelinwithAsiaandBJ , I actually think Afterlife was a VERY good movie. Somehow I missed Ghostbusters 2, but just ordered it to complete the set since it was only $5.99. There was another 2016 movie "Ghostbusters: Answer The Call", that starred Melissa McCarthy, this one should be avoided at all costs.
@@musicluvr70 we just watched the recent Ghostbusters and I was afraid it would suck, but it was actually VERY good!!! It even made me cry. I was so glad they were able to create something that was actually good. My kids love Ghostbusters, we watch it ALL the time !! Ghostbusters 2 was good also, but nothing beats the original 🚫👻🚫
@@michele36618, I may have wiped a tear or two watching it also, but I always use the excuse I'm old. LOL Fortunately (or unfortunately) there is never anyone around to see them.
Rick Moranis also wrote most of his part
The actor who plays the EPA inspector who lets the ghosts loose is also in the movie "Die Hard," which should be on your list, if you haven't seen it.
IMO, the best movie with Bill Murray in it is "Groundhog Day," but he's in a lot of films. Sigourney Weaver is best known, of course, for playing the lead in "Alien" and "Aliens." Dan Aykroyd is probably best known for his roles in "The Blues Brothers" and "Trading Places."
I have to disagree with you on one point. Best movie with Bill Murray is Zombieland. Of course ones opinion is relative
@@2mon249 Zombieland is good but he's barely in it lol
Scrooged is also a great Bill Murray movie.
@Vern Sherris can't forget when he played Jim Lloyd in the miniseries Centennial (back in 1978)
what? No love for Stripes?@@2mon249
I love 1980s movies. That decade is goldmine for classic films. Almost every modern movie, genre, actor/actress, in the business today owes their success to 80s movies.
Asia and BJ, you commented about how Ghostbusters came out in 1984. To give it some historical context, this came out on the heels of two major film franchises that very summer: Indiana Jones and The Temple of Doom and Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. And it was right before some other great movies that same summer like The Karate Kid, Dune, The Last Starfighter, and The Terminator. So the fact that it went against these great movies and wound up be a blockbuster that summer of ‘84 is a tremendous feat.
I always loved "Yes, they'll be totally discreet." Then they walk in the hotel "ANYBODY SEEN SOME GHOSTS?!"
This is my first time watching a Ghostbuster reaction, and it's gotta be one of my favourite movie reactions ever! You guys are great, thanks for the laughs!! The ghost of the kitchen 😂 80s movies were so good
🤣🤣 smh.. Spirit of the Kitchen!! Thank you so much Cali for watching the first one with us!!
No matter how dated the effects look these days they are still staggeringly better than some of the trashy ones that were in the remake.
I love all the characters in this movie, this is one of my favorite movies for a long time. Bill Murray really kills it with his casual way of not taking anything seriously. Rick Moranis was also in Spaceballs - which is another hilarious movie spoof on Star Wars.
I watched this movie for 3 decades now. It was brought to my attention recently that the guy who locked himself out was the key master. It reaffirms my belief that this movie was very well written.
Ghostbusters 2 was filmed in 1989. This time dana has a son named Oscar, and the villan vigo wants to possess his body. This original cast is back for the 2nd movie
I was 9 years old when it came out. It was one of the first VHS tapes I got, and I was so excited I watched the movie untill the tape wore out 🤣
This is a movie that should be watched many times for the all surrounding comedy. Foreground and background, verbal and non verbal. This is my all time favorite, number one movie of all time. It's got romance, comedy, sci fi and action- everything. I watch it at least once a year. I'm a bit bias because I'm from this city, but it's an undeniable classic. Nothing beats the original, but part 2 and afterlife(part3) are a must watch!
So glad you two watched. This movie is classic..and had the best comedians of our time 80s in it. This movie was just an awesome ride of fun. The whole cast from Annie Potts to Ernie Hudson delivered their lines that you couldn't help but love this movie.
I saw this in the theaters in '84, I was 5 years old, I loved it. My cousin, same age, climbed under the seat, he was so scared of the gargoyle dogs. So many great movies from the 80's. I found you two the other day and have really enjoyed your reactions to the vids I've watched so far.
Asia & BJ
Headquarters for Ghostbusters is actual fire station in NYC. When son, Jason Reitman of original director and producer, Ivan Reitman decided to create Ghostbuster: Afterlife, during press junket, actors held an interview at the station.
Awesome reaction!!! I love how clever and subtle the adult elements are in this, when I was 4 in 84' all the rude stuff didn't register at all, but as I got older all the stuff like Peter being hit on by Zuul(legit thought She just wanted to eat Him😅), the Ghost giving Ray an astral bl*wj*b in His dreams, and the way the Boys refer to their Neutrona Wands like extensions of their own junk in the final battle, among a other euphemisms, has truly been a trip over the years. All hidden behind great editing and dialog delivery.
Perfectly executed Family Film that isn't afraid to cater to everyone.
They don't make them this well-written anymore, alas...💖💖💖
very true!
Got some recs for ya:
- Groundhog Day (Bill Murray again!)
- The Jerk (Steve Martin; Brilliant funny guy. Someone else suggested Little Shop of Horrors and he's great in that too.)
-Planes, Trains & Automobiles (Steve Martin and John Candy, another iconic funny guy. He's the star of Uncle Buck, which someone else already recommended too)
The neighbour “Louis” was my favourite character…and of course “Slimer” 👻🤪
I was born 1986, two years after that film. When I was small, I always wanted to see that film, because my older brothers had toys and merchandise from it. Also here in Europe it is pretty big. At least one or two reruns of the films on German telly, the soundtrack famous... everything... I still remember my first girlfriend´s graduation ball, where the soundtrack was played and after every "Who you gonna call?" "GHOSTBUSTERS!!!!"
Near the end, after the defeat of Stay Puft, Asia asks why Venkman isn't as covered in marshmallow goo. The reason is that earlier in the movie, Venkman got "Slimed" by the first ghost they caught. Actor Bill Murray found the experience disgusting and had the director promise that he would not have to suffer like that at the end.
The part where Rick Moranis tells the horse to wait for the sign and his imminent release always kills me.
One of the few movies out there with a really good sequel. Good reaction. Thanks for a fun Friday.
Never forget that Dan Ackroyd is a Blues Brother and this soundtrack slaps with R&B tracks because he insisted on it. He even got Bobby Brown to do the theme for the sequel!
Yes there is a Ghostbusters 2. I loved this movie growing up...it was one of the first movies i ever saw in a theatre 😁
FUN FACTOID: At one point in the movie, "American Top 40" DJ Casey Kasem was doing a radio show, where he was talking about the Ghostbusters. At Louis' party, Louis was dancing with a lady in a pink outfit. That lady is Casey Kasem's real-life wife Jean Thompson-Kasem.
Crossing the Streams essentially creates an anti-proton explosion like a thermonuclear blast. Luckily the portal absorbed the blast.
Yep, the part that shot back and melted the marshmallow man was just the muzzle flash. The part that Gozer’s dimension suffered was several orders of magnitude more destructive.
A bad business decision was to bring along Ray when they were looking to buy the empty building. That's why most parents looking at homes leave their kids behind at their home.
Yup, I just called Dr. Ray Stance a kid.😂
Funny story. There were copyright issues iver the title, and Columbia was going to have to dish out money and were balking at the price.
So, they filmed the ground level entrance to the apartment early.
The producer got the studio execs on a pay phone as the crowd is cheering and chanting Ghostbusters. So they could get a taste of what would be on film.
Needless to say, they forked over the cash.
Rick Moranis has given us so many amazing childhood memories. I don't blame him in any way for leaving the industry to be with his family. He doesn't owe us anything
And he left for the most noble of reasons!
There was an animated tv show that did a good job of continuing the story. The green ghost became a member/pet for the Ghostbusters.
This was a really chill reaction. I saw folks who wondered why there were ghosts in the movie or did not understand what a comedy is. And so many offended about Venkman's antics lmao.
Who doesn't expect ghosts in a movie called Ghostbusters??? 🤔
Easily one of the best reactions to this movie. Definitely check out the sequel. Love the content
Aye J Link ❤️❤️ Thanks for watching with us!
Asia, you commented on something from the movie by saying "they said/did this in 1984??" GIRL, nothing was off limits back in the day and nobody was excluded which is why EVERYTHING was so much more hilarious. Most of the stuff we grew up watching would NEVER have been made today because everyone is such wusses.
So true..ive watched younger people react to this movie and its amazing how they take some of the jokes/characters so seriously and their reactions are borderline offended if not straight up. Makes me cringe...these are fictional characters with dialogue written by comedians with a certain situational context, in this case a group of goofy scientists who try to trap weird ghosts and all with particular personalities to fit the comedic situation. Take it for exactly what it is young people...
Hell yeah! I loved growing up in the 80's!!! I was too little to see this in the theaters, but went with my parents to see the sequel.
@@sorensmith9873 Yeah, honestly the meanest (and least ethical esp when considering the loss to science)thing done in this film is what Venkman does to that poor male ESP volunteer and all because he wants to get into a coeds pants. I mean that guy was the REAL DEAL and Venkman could care less.
Yes, all the shows from the 70s and 80s humor was great. Today's shows don't last long are are forgotten but the classics are classics because they were awesome and manage to last decades.
@@figrindantatooine Some shows last decades (2013-purportedly ongoing) & still suck (TTG on CN for example [as a shipper, BBXRAE is the only thing saving that dreck]).
You guys did an amazing job reacting! It’s like you’ve been doing it a long time. You didn’t talk too much, just the right amount, you did a great job editing and it was fun to watch with you. Such a classic movie!
Hey Carolyn we appreciate that ❤️❤️ Thanks for watching with us!
@@ReelinwithAsiaandBJ Totally agree with Carolyn!! New subscriber here! If you haven't seen Boondock Saints yet, it is my all time favorite St. Paddy's Day film (I know I'm not alone). It does have a sequel. There's action, comedy, and Norman Reedus.
Considering the ... suggestive adult situations , the smoking , the deadpan jokes -- and that all of it was in a kids & young adults movie that adults could enjoy as well --- it's just a signature 1980's movie , that didn't preach, and didn't think that it's audience was dumb .
"Dogs and Cats Living Together!!! Total Chaos!!!" - Peter. Ghostbusters 2 is good too IMO!!! Lewis is in that one too.Bobby Brown did the song On Our Own for the soundtrack. A real Bopper.
Probably been said before, but watch Ghistbusters II, then watch Afterlife. It is truly a great movie and a fitting closing to the series. This movie was fun and comical, but Afterlife gets you in the feels!
Good job BJ & Asia. Enjoyed watching with you all. Hey Bill Murray had a funny movie with actor Richard Dreyfuss called "What About Bob" and another of his was "Tootsie" a 1982 movie hit starring Dustin Hoffman, Jessica Lange and Bill Murray. Sigourney you know she has a lot of movies, starting with "Alien". Oh my I have a ton of movies I'd love to see your reactions to.
TOOTSIE is one of the greats.
If you want to go back to the 80's and 90's work of Sigourney Weaver, consider "The Year of Living Dangerously" (1982) where she stars with Linda Hunt, Mel Gibson, and Michael Murphy, and "The Ice Storm" (1997) with Kevin Kline and Joan Allen.
"Tootsie" is hilarious.
Hey guys, I stumbled upon you a channel today. Just want to say I seen Ghostbusters 100 times, I'm 42 years old but grew up with this movie.
Watching it with you guys was like experiencing it for the first time all over again and it was a lot of fun. You guys are great team and looking forward to exploring more of your channel. It was a lot of fun.
Great job. Asia you have a beautiful smile.
yes. thanks for dropping this this morning 🌄. I'm fixing to do some chores around the house and this is perfect to listen to! I was 11 when this came out but didn't see it till it came out for rent on VHS. I did have a cute pair of Ghostbusters jammies I bought in the mal at Rave...... Oh the good old days.
No worries grl Im 58 yrs young, stay young at heart and u'll never age. Such a great fun classic. All such great actors and work so well together. R.I.P. Harold Ramis. Workin' with a scientific paranormal group and Cherokee Shaman for over a decade, I def went from skeptic to believer. Just wish what I experienced was as fun as theirs, lol. Thanx so much, take care, Peace
It is soooo much fun watching y'all watch movies that I've seen, and you reacting just like I did. Especially Silence of the Lambs and Jaws! It makes me so happy. Y'all are such a great couple.😍
what did we learn?
when a scientist tells you "do NOT shut down the containment field", you *DO NOT* shut down the containment field!
18 year old just entering college me giving a brief review of this movie in 1984. Ghostbusters, an irreverant comedy featuring Bill Murray in the quinitential Bill Murray role as the charming smartass that only Bill Murray can play. 57 year old 40 years of adult life later me giving a brief review of this movie today. Ghostbusters, a cautionary tale about the arrogance and overbearingness of United States federal regulatory agency officials.
*BJ* called that goo in the beginning slime & the *Green Goblin* later that *Asia* called cute actually earned the name *SLIMER*
I had read once that the soundtrack to this movie also held a record as to the number of #1 hits on the billboard charts. 🙂Yeah! The recent Ghostbusters : Afterlife is a must see! 😲
Yes there is a sequel and you should do it. And then watch the one that came out a few months ago. You guys will love them.
LOL really?
@@Muckylittleme yep!! It’s so nostalgic now most people love it. Always gonna be some haters of course.
@@sweetkiss119 Haters or people with a different opinion?
The all female remake was awful compared to the original.
How is it they have to piggyback all this woke nonsense onto success of people who are no longer diverse enough, namely white men?
If it is such a good idea and has merit then make new movies and characters that push that agenda instead if hijacking what was great and universally loved by all to pander to a tiny minority of bed wetter's?
@@Muckylittleme I too hate remakes and reboots. But ghostbusters 2 is not a remake or reboot. Is it as good as the original? Nope but it still has its moments. And I just watched ghostbusters afterlife and I loved it. The female one was dumb so we agree on that. Seems you have some hatred for white people given that you just had to point out color so I don’t think their is anything left for us to discuss. I don’t judge a movie or a person on color or their beliefs cause that’s how I was raised. But sure sounds like you do. So sad
Couple points of note:
Louis Tully was originally to be played by John Candy
Winston Zedmore was originally to be played by Eddie Murphy
Gozer was originally to be played by Paul Ruebens (Pee Wee Herman)
So happy to hang out and watch movies again with you this week! Ghostbusters is so fun, and an absolute classic. Still crossing my fingers for Lord of the Rings!
A detail many miss is when Dana is first being interviewed with the colander sensor on her head, the monitor shows a "heat profile" view of her head.
Later, when possessed Louis had been dropped off at Ghostbusters HQ and is wearing the colander sensor, the monitor shows the "heat profile" of Vinz Clortho (the Terror Dog "Keymaster" minion of Gozer).
Open endings like the end of this movie happened all the time in the 80's. If they proved popular enough, in time, movies, or more often, comic books would swoop in to do that continued "what if" story and keep things going for a while. There are two direct movie sequels, Ghostbusters II, and Ghostbusters Afterlife that just came out within the last year. There is also a Ghostbusters Cartoon series that took cannon ideas from both two movies and kept things going for at least 4 years of shows. Extreme Ghostbusters that fallowed that show latter on for another 2-3 years, Ghostbusters The Video Game that played out as a Ghostbusters III that came out in 09, and continued things 10 years after II. And there is talk of Afterlife continuing on with 2 more movies as they finish working out the scripts, and a planned cartoon series to fill in the down time between movies.
You know what is funny. You will notice how the 2 terror dogs are similar to the 2 they possess.
Zuul the female terror dog who possesses Dana is very methodical, silent & to the point.
The possession was quick, swift & silent
Now Vinz Clortho, the male terror dog who possesses Louis is the opposite. Very loud, clumsy & reckless.
I thought that was kind of funny
This is fantastic! You both are perfect for this and this movie is such a blast to watch with other people.
The fire station is a real FDNY station in Tribeca, several blocks North of the World Trade Centre. The Tavern On the Green restaurant is in Central Park not far from Dana's apartment building. The restaurant scene makes fun of New Yorkers being indifferent while weird stuff occurs around them.
I was 11 when this came out in the theater, still love this movie. The special effects are ok now, but back then it was amazing. Also might check out Alien and Aliens both with Sigourney Weaver (Dana) she is a bad a%% , they did make Ghostbusters 2.
I think thy still hold up. Not a bit of CGI, just talent and practical expert craftsmanship. Helps to see it on the early DVD pressing. This Blu-ray upscale with the more greenish "color corrected"🙄 tint kind spoils some of the Animatronic and Claymation elements, and makes the superimposed passes not look as translucent is they should. The Library Ghost is FAR more see-thru' on the DVD. The lines are too defined and janky on this version. 💖
Bill Murray was barely covered in Marshmallow at the end of the movie because he was so allergic to the foam being used
Such a great reaction! You two are so cute in your enjoyment, loved seeing this! There's just something satisfying watching someone see one of your favorite movies for the first time. Definitely check out "Honey I Shrunk the Kids" for more of Lewis (Rick Moranis; a comedy genius in his own right) it's a great funny comedy. It's nice this movie holds up PRETTY well--though Venkman is honestly pretty gross with women by today's standards, and Winston (Ernie Hudson) was CRIMINALLY underused and was apparently treated badly on the movie, which makes me really sad.
Slimer actually becomes part of the team in the (TV) cartoon :)
I loved your reaction guys, and if you liked this you oughta check Strange Brew (with Rick Moranis who was Louis) or Stripes (that had Bill Murray and Harold Ramis). Super funny movies that have been overlooked.
My favorite Elmer Bernstein score. Love that Reginald VelJohnson is the police officer in the jail. He portrays a police officer in 3 major cities, New York("Ghostbusters"), Los Angeles("Die Hard") and Chicago("Family Matters").
That brought back memories. Great reaction!!
I grew up in New York City, my father worked in a building on the upper west side. I saw this movie in theaters when I was really really little, like kindergarten little. I knew that building was a real building. You can't imagine my disappointment when I found out I couldn't actually be a Ghostbuster when I grew up. I love this this movie, it reminds me of the New York I grew up in.
I smiled sooo much through this😁🥰 because it reminds me of them ole days!! 😂 And by the end my smile was bursting with pride and joy for you both, at the amazing job you're doing up in here... Y'ALL WERE BORN TO DO THIS!!!🔥❤️🔥❤️ love it! sooo proud!😍
Aww Donna ❤️❤️ We got that same feeling about the movie. And you being proud of us.. well we’re both happy and humbled, because we love you too!
Great reaction to one of my favorite movies. I was nine years old when this came out in the summer of 1984 and saw it in a packed theater. It was a blast. I am still shocked you guys didn't know who Bill Murray was. This movie made him a household name and a big star. LOL.
Rick Moranis (the quirky neighbor) stole the show, in my opinion. I want a chocolate bar & graham crackers. There is a sequel. The effects were pretty good for a 1984 comedy. Great reaction! I still laugh at this though I've seen it several times! Thanks! I would love for you to react to THE BIG CHILL.
My personal theory is that ectoplasm is marshmallow repellent.
Early in the movie, Venkman gets slimed. He's the only one who does.
Skip to the end of the movie, and after the Sta-Puft Marshmallow Man explodes, the other three ghostbusters are covered pretty much head to toe with marshmallow, but Venkman, who was right there with them, barely has any on him.
Obviously, his previous coating of ectoplasm (slime) gave him a protective layer against marshmallow. :)
One of the most famous movies ever made. Grew up watching this and had the slimer toy. Love the ghostbusters
that thing he was doing in her apartment was testing for gas leaks, its called a "sniffer", it was a more logical approach to make sure theres no chemical or gas leaks causing her to hallucinate
I haven't seen this since I was a kid. I literally didn't remember anything but the song.... it was hilarius 😂😂😂
We agree lone B ❤️❤️ Thanks for watching with us!
Musical fact for ya .
Huey Lewis and the News sued over the Ghostbusters theme and won.
It was determined that the tune was a sped up version of I want a new drug done by Huey Lewis
*Asia's* reaction is priceless you need to hit up another classic *(Poltergeist)*
Dan aykroyd was in the movie the blues brothers with John belushi And bill Murray was in the movie stripes With Harold ramis Who plays Egon in this movie In rick moranis Play dark helmet In space balls
You guys are great, love your reactions.
May your views and likes always be equal.
Your laughter is contagious! You all got to have some popcorn next time! Would like to see you react to Stand by me the movie. 😏
Bill Murray and for the life of me I'm blanking out on the actor's name who played Venkman but they're together in stripes John Candy god the guy who played Dan on Night Court is in it
Bill Murray played Venkman, I think perhaps you were thinking of Harold Ramis who took the role of Egon Spengler.
@@christineirving4491pluviophile oh my God thanks I don't know how I screwed that up🤦✌❤🤜🤛
@@Brandon-sw5ob 👍
There's both a sequel (two now, counting this year's "Ghostbusters: Afterlife"), three cartoon series, a few games, a ton of comicbooks, and a "Meh" reboot attempt in 2016 (you can ignore that one).
Awesome Job Editing You Guys, 2 thumbs ☝loved it.
Yes ..They had a great sequel "Ghostbusters 2" still has The Secretary, Louis Tully, and Dana Barrett played by Sigourney Weaver and all the Ghostbusters
Great reaction! There is a sequel and it’s actually my fav it lined more up with my age range and had lil better effects better villain and a Bobby Brown soundtrack and cameo
Ray Parker Jr. Wrote and sang the theme song Not B Brown.
@@gmunden1 I know I have the vinyl but ghostbusters 2 theme song was Bobby Brown...it went well I guess we’re gonna have to take control not sure what it was called...Bobby Browns cameo was he was the door man at a building that ask for a proton pack for his little brother
Such a classic. In 1991 Rick Moranis retired from acting to concentrate on being a dad after sadly his wife died. This movie provided the break-out role for the great Ernie Hudson who had mostly been in small tv roles before this. Does anyone think the toasted Stay Puft Marshmallow man tasted good after he exploded?
Love the reaction! Yes there’s a 2 and then recently ghostbuster afterlife came out.The also had one with all women as the ghostbusters:)
Which is horrible. The ones directed by ivan and his son stay with the storyline.
Dana's apartment is located at 55 Central Park West. And yes, there really is a church next door. (That Mr. StayPuft steps on.)
