Don Bluth once said that he believed children were made of sterner stuff than most adults gave them credit for and that as long as they got a good ending, they could probably deal with the darker things as well. I recently showed my seven year old niece and nephew the first Land Before Time and they enjoyed it. Although they did ask why the T-Rex was hurting other dinosaurs. We explained they were a carnivore, which meant they only ate meat. They seemed to accept this fairly well.
Buster Jones must've had a blast singing
He had a damn good voice.
Animated newscasts were removed because kids got scared thinking they were real...?
I... I can't even... The level of network stupidity...
That's coming from the same ABC that said to Straczynski, when he wrote "Russian About", "You cannot reference The Necronomicon because it is a real occult book." Even after Straczynski proved to ABC multiple times that it wasn't a real book, ABC still said "No" to referencing it. Even though they were perfectly fine with referencing H.P. Lovecraft.
***** Q5 should've been called "IQ5", because that's how intelligent they were.
BBBHuey And they didn't deserve their College degrees. They should have been revoked.
BBBHuey Something in my brain popped when that part came up.
BBBHuey It's usually the parent groups that have this level of stupidity.
It’s weird that even when it’s being drugged down, real Ghostbusters can do a better response to critics than Teen Titans Go
Thats because they actually cared
@@reptile1677 that and they actually knew what they were talking about
@@Remythechef mmm
14:27 Phelous wearing pointy glasses?? That terrified me so much I hid in another video
Joe Straczynski seems like such a cool guy
I love that Peter sliming Slimer sequence, and how Welker delivers the line "Ugh. I have been, like, slimed.". It cracks me up.
I really love how the Boogaloo's song is sort of a dark reprise of "Cleaning up the town" As Garfield would say "nice touch".
The boogaloo is back in town
"Topical! Still! FOR SOME REASON!"
...I'm sorry, 2016 Phelous. I'm so sorry...
Also perfect for Ghostheads who went bonkers over the reboot.
I love those interview snippets with JMS. He's got such a brilliant sense of humor that matches the comedic style of Ghostbusters. Just that line alone about "learning whole new ways to become incompetent" in regards to writing song lyrics. Hilarious.
I thought Peter sliming Slimer was funny.
“Taking her to Donald Trump’s place”
Boy..... that sure aged..... awkwardly......
Grab her by the slimer.
"The first rule of fanatics. When you become obsessed with the enemy, you become the enemy."
@@Tareltonlives Ok?
And the monster's name is Boogaloo! This is some "Back to the Future predicted 9/11" future memory going on here!
Trump was a big New York guy even 30 years ago, I mean, that's just a fact.
"The first rule of fanatics. When you become obsessed with the enemy, you become the enemy."
Words that everyone on Tumblr should live by.
Along with the entire Ghostbusters fanbase this past year.
I never knew so many people were THAT into Ghostbusters.
Michael Kuzmanovski I mean Ghostbusters is still very popular and there's always new generations discovering it. But as far as this year's controversy, some of the more nasty haters seemed to hate the reboot more than they loved Ghostbusters, IMO.
How about people worried about what people do on Tumblr?
You know, as bum of a rep as we get on tumblr, I do love pointing out that people who make fun of us forget that the SJW side of tumblr is just that: One Side. Those of us who aren't on it stay FAR AWAY from them, and are just as embarrassed that we get associated with them.
Aired exactly 28 years ago, Sunday October 29, 1989.
The animation in this episode kinda reminds me of "Little Nemo".
It seems like it was done by the same overseas studio, TMS. And very well done, I might add
Careful, Phelous! Those glasses make you look... sharp.
"When you become obsessed with the enemy, you become the enemy." Something this fanbase might want to keep in mind going forward.
TheaterPup
This and every other.
Not just the fan base but Femnazis and MGTOW shitheads. Hopefully everyone will have an epic final battle get their sexist, racist, bias bullshit out of their systems and then finally humanity can progress into the superior species we were always meant to be. I hope one day we would be as awesome as Tardigrades.
Humanity can also finally start to progress once people wake up and we abolish biblical religion.
@@sorasong9708 lies. The bible isn't the cause of world problems. People are the problem.
Gonna need to take these words to heart.
JMS is going to Make Peter Venkman Great Again!
Too bad for the ghostbusters 2016
I thought he was going to make Peter Parker Great Again.
Jigglysaint Look I don't know MJ, she's not my wife. What i'm saying is that we should be forging a closer relationship, tremendous relationship with Mephisto!
Wait if the containment unit is destroyed wouldn't Sam Hain be free?Because if so we would be pissed off at Crowley and the Boogaloo.
With all the Real Ghostbusters videos that you've made so far (which I appreciate since it helped me love Ghostbusters even more), when can we expect a Top 20 dumbest moments episode? Yeah I know most of it will be Q5 material but I think it would be interesting if you could include some from the pre-interference era.
Yeah, maybe he could make 2 videos, pre-Q5 and post-Q5.
ilikethecokev2 what’s Q5 mean?
@@psychodfunk Oh, man. You gotta catch up dude. Q5 were the managing board that kerbstomped Real Ghostbusters into the ground, by changing everything under the sun.
I binged the pre Q5 episodes recently, and as great as those are there are way more than 20 dumb moments so you could easily fill that list up
It would be interesting to find someone involved in the Q5 team to see what their opinion is looking back on how their changes affected the show. Do you think they'd stand by them?
Pretty sure the entire Q5 were a fraud, especially since they didn't actually consult any children. So no, I doubt they cared then and I doubt they care now.
Better ending would have been letting Samhein out of containment to 'deal' with the problem. After all, they did it with Stay-Puft on a few occasions, somehow, as he wasn't even IN the unit. He ended up splattered all over NYC streets. No capture.
Pheleous pointed this out after I made the comment.
I really love it when you talk about 'The Real Ghostbusters' cartoon. I remember catching a few episodes when I was little, and even though they scared me a little sometimes, I still loved them! It just makes me mad the network actually thought to "dumb down" the cartoon for kids. We liked the show for being EDGY!
Speaking of parent groups, I can't help but be reminded of the whole PTC vs The Walking Dead debacle. And I don't even watch that show!
My all time favorite RGB episode. This episode alone was why I was so defensive of Dave Coulier's Peter before re-watching your review of the bad episodes.
I need more than that to get over Dave's version of Peter
KidSnivy69
Well, I was blinded by nostalgia. I will still say this was his best performance in the series, though.
+ilikethecokev2 Ok I'll admit to being harsh, so I'll say this about Dave's version. He was just doing his job, he was asked to do his Murray impression and he did it (even if I think it sucks); that and a lot of the problems came from the Q5 morons changes.
I still don't like Dave's take on the character, but he was somewhere between uh and meh for me.
I felt Dave Coulier did well in "The Grundel". Especially when he gave that speech to the victim, just as he was about to fully turn into one.
I agree, The Grundel is one of my favorite Real Ghostbusters for that reason.
I absolutely love how LaMarche is doing proto-Brain voice at 14:03
Seriously, why did no one give Culier some proper direction? I mean, he was never gonna replace Lorenzo Music, but I have to think that someone could have gotten a better vocal performance from the guy!
Maybe that was just a Stay-Puff cosplayer.
Nah it's staypufts cousin staypuff
I really loved this episode. I was bopping to the music number the Ghostbusters put on.
The Halloween door haves to be one of my most favorite episodes I'm sorry but I actually really love it because it's enjoyable, the songs are good, and the characters actually act the way they supposed to be and the ghosts and monsters are awesome.
Same. Its so corny but you have to love it. When Venkman says "it was a PARTY!" and they all dance with their proton packs on. Its too hilarious
Wait, Crowley was the human? Would not have guessed that one.
It's honestly amazing how much executives belittle children.
16:29 - Everybody betray Phelan! He fed up with this world!
And he don't care, anymore! Oh, hi, doggy.
Ghostbusters 2: Ghostly Boogaloo
Six Gun Shauna
ghostbusters 2o16 : the quest for money hahaha
The failed quest
16:07-16:23 parallels my opinion of Drake Bell as Spider-Man in _The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes_, except one would have to replace Lorenzo Music's name with Josh Keaton's.
Could hear you discuss your favorite shows for days, man. I really like you!
I really wanted this to end with an all out monster attack between Boogaloo and Samhein. You want Halloween? You'll get Halloween!
Man, that animated newscast was _so scary_ cuz it seemed so REAL! Seriously, I shouldn't be surprised at how stupid people can be given the decisions made against this show, but that takes the cake.
Omg... not a scary pointy glasses wearing newscaster!!! That's my biggest fear!
*DEAD*
Just think, there must be a parallel universe in which the cable of the elevator carrying the Q5 people up to that Ghostbusters meeting snapped and they died horribly, but not before experiencing a few seconds of horror as the elevator screeched down the shaft gaining ever more speed. Why couldn't we have lived in that wonderful universe?
15:16 Actually, Straczynski wrote "Slimer, Is That You", in which Slimer did the same thing, albeit with Egon's mind.
I remember watching the intro everyday hoping it was one of the original episodes before it was changed to slimer and the real ghostbusters and being upset every time I seen the new intro
I really dig the animation on the musical number!
If the Boogaloo didn't have such a derpy name and voice he'd probably be pretty scary.
Hmm 🤔, I can’t be the only one that didn’t mind the voice changes when I was a kid. I was just happy to be watching Ghostbusters. Hell, I didn’t even notice until reviews on UA-cam like this one. Now that I see that they redubbed Peter’s and Janine’s voices, something I didn’t notice as a kid, I prefer the old voices to the new voices especially in the older episodes before they were redubbed. But I still don’t mind them. I didn’t even realize that Slimer was being used more in the later seasons. Again, I didn’t notice until reviews on UA-cam. I just thought they wanted to change the opening sequence. I did find it annoying that after the song ended in the opening sequence, Slimer came back into frame and said “and me and me”. I rolled my eyes at that every time. I did find The Slimer Show a little annoying. I couldn’t wait til it ended so I could watch more of The Real Ghostbusters since they ran back to back. I watched The Slimer Show but I never liked the character models in The Slimer Show, especially of the four Ghostbusters. What was up with their pretty boy looks and the no ghost logo on their arm...uhm, arms. That annoyed me to no end. I tried watching The Slimer Show recently and I couldn’t do it, it was like torcher. I like how I never noticed the changes apart from the new opening sequence. Since I didn’t notice, it didn’t ruin it for me. Now a days, I notice every little change a show or video game makes and I usually find it annoying.
Peter slimed Slimer! Ha! Now they're even!
“Yuppie larva” I started crying when I heard that
16:23 That's Kath Soucie, using the same voice that she would use for Lillian DeVille on "Rugrats".
A referente to Donald Trump, why not? Kids in the late 80's sure knew who Donald Trump was right?
Well they do now...
Donald Trump also appeared in the Ghostbusters 2 music video by Bobby Brown. Maybe that is why they mentioned him.
Yeah, they did. I was a kid then and knew who he was.
Ehh, it depends. We sort of did in NJ, it was a bit harder not to be aware of him due to his casino in Atlantic City. I had a friend at the time who admired him simply on the basis he was rich. DT struck me as shady since that was around the time he was constantly in the news due to his scandal with Ivana and Marla. Mind you, we were like 9-10 yrs old. I think GB is set in NY, so I can kinda see the reference at least working for adults, kinda like how old Warner Bros cartoons would make jokes that went over children's heads.
Well, Trump Plaza was where 2 Wrestlemania's were held back then, so any wrestling fans would know.
16:00 But they all live in the firehouse... therefore they all can see their house from their
I've taped this episode on vhs.
I'd love to see a feature film adaptation of this episode. It would give more chance for people to see it. Maybe...
If Paul Feig hadn't come into the picture, the third movie probably could have had this storyline.
At least something like it
Chris C. Too Far... actually no.
As I've heard, the remake isn't bad... just self deprecating.
Jonah Kirk Nah, it's pretty bad. There are worse movies out there, but it's still bad.
Futurama has ruined me because I'm so familiar with Kath Soucie's voice I can't get around the fact that it's her and not some little kid talking.
And like I said before that voice she used for the little kid is the same she would use for Lil on "Rugrats", which premiered two years later after this episode.
She's just THAT talented!
These videos are my favorite! I enjoy the sarcasm and blunt truth you say about the cartoon changes, please upload more!
I like this episode. And buster jones also voiced blaster from transformers so doesn't surprise me on the solos he did
This is the seminal episode of this show that I remember and watched the most.
Best damn ghostbuster out there, Phelan is
Been subscribed for a while, and this is yet another great episode! Good job as always Phelous! :D
Nice review love the decorations on the couch. Thank you!
And I hate to say this, but even if ABC didn't hire Q5, some of the changes would have still happened (Slimer getting more screentime and Dave Coulier for Lorenzo Music in particular).
Wait, parents groups? I thought think it was referring to a religious fundamentalist groups, who want to ban Halloween because of it's connection to pre-christian mythos.
Still a nice episode. Though I think they ruined Bugaloo a bit by making him "funny". He actually looks legitimately terryfying.
At the time, there was a lot of overlap. During the late 80s and early 90s, there was a big Satanism scare that led to lots of parents groups (many of which were specifically religious, but there were some less religious/secular ones too) opposing things like Halloween, Dungeons and Dragons, and anything that could be remotely interpreted as Satanist or Pagan. With non-religious groups, the concern was that these things would influence kids to do dangerous things, or cause them to be unable to tell fantasy from reality and going nuts. (like in Mazes and Monsters)
This was of course before people realized that it was the religious fundies who couldn't tell fantasy from reality.
You know, the kinda guys who make conspiracy theory videos about how they can't even look at a movie poster without seeing secret satanic symbolism heralding the end times or something.
1Dudelove
Chick died? When did that happen? Did he lose a game of _Dark & Dungeons_?
"I don't want to be Jack Chick anymore. I want to be Debbie."
StarlightPrism I sometimes wish I lived in that time then I'm reminded of that shit
Now we just have social justice groups bitching about how shows, movies, and video games make kids racist, suicidal, and sexist. Same shit different wrapper.
5:16 I suppose that comeback was "FIVE YEARS IN THE MAKING".
love all your vids man please keep it up
I'm definitely going to watch this episode right after this
Do you think, if this episode had gotten a sequel, the villain would have been turned into an electrified version of himself?
This is pretty much why I hate that most public schools don't have Halloween celebrations....screw your Harvest Festival....
Being that Hallowween is my all time favorite holiday, it saddens me to hear that te school I work for is one of those schools thatdon't allow students to dress up during that day. I use to dress up for Halloween on school days. My siblings and I, along with our cousins, would dress up, go to school and then after school our moms would pick us up to go trick or treating. Those were such great memories. Too bad kids today don't do these things any more, because Jehovah Witnesses took over. Jehovah Witnesses suck. Even Muslims let their kids dress up and go trick or treating. For them it is just something kids do in the US once a year. It is something fun. Nothing to do with devil worship or anything evil. Just fun times for everyone. Unfortunately, there is always one idiot out to ruin everything for everyone else. It's like fart jokes. They're funny, but there is always that one person who always offended of everything and needs to ruin the fun of farts. >_>
@@LadyCoyKoi You had me in the first half ngl
14:28 OH DEAR GOD! GIVE ME A WARNING NEXT TIME! YOU ALMOST GAVE ME A HEART ATTACK! YOU KNOW HOW SCARY POINTED GLASSES ARE!
it would have been an epic ending if they had used samhain to defeat boogaloo
The Real Ghostbusters has a pretty fantastic intro!
9:37 You might say Winston was the driving force behind the song.
If this was the real world, Crowley here would be president of the US.
13:38 "Stay Puft what are you doin here?"
Ahh pointy glasses!
Boogoolo was so epic to me when I was a child.
I made lots of bad drawings from him.
My favourite episodes: ''Stop that hears'' about ecto being a man eating car.
''Halloween Door'' Because boogolo , and the episode is wayyy more graphic than almost any other episode.
I forgot which the episode is called, but its where they go into space, and some huge green monster is eating everyones soul, I remember it was also very scary for me when i was young bc ppl actually got killed(no spoilers).
You deserve more views/Subs
I choose to believe this special inspired the scene in Castlevania with Blue Fangs in the church
You seem to have forgotten the musical number in Banshee Bake a Cherry Pie? I'd love to see that episode reviewed since it's actually proof that the "Good episodes" had some shit in them just as well. And my favorite is Standing Room Only which doesn't put too much focus on Slimer and Venkman is more the money-grrubing lazy ass he was in the movie.
"Slimer and the Real Ghostbusters" would be like "Snarf and the ThunderCats" "Orko and He-Man" "The Great Gazoo and the Flintstones" "Scrappy and Scooby Doo" "Robin and Batman"
Your hatred of Dave Coulier Peter Venkman is good and pure. I hated Coulier before I knew who he was for the same reason. Guy peaked with Out of Control.
Then went onto "Full House".
And then it went downhill from there...
The idea of learning about Halloween is a neat idea 🥳😎
Wait as in ELECTRIC boogaloo?
4:46 Truer words were never spoken.
Boogaloo is an amazing monster.
07:08 Could someone explain the Ashens' Joke to me please?
09:05 They crossed the streams! D:
10:55 I wonder what Sammy did to those ghosts that tried to end Halloween when they got put in Containment? I bet it wasn't pretty. X_x
14:35 Someone explain the pointed glasses joke please?
Slimmin' down I see! Good for you. :)
"Hometown Hero", about Ray, would like a word, Mr. No Musical Numbers...
Okay so the chairman from that parent group saying "It's fantasy, bad for kids" sounds a lot like something out of a Jehovah's Witness' mouth haha
Yes. That is why we don't have holiday parties in most public schools. It saddens me to know that my parents took the risk of getting on a leaky, weak boat during a tropical storm to escape one oppressive nation only to land on another oppressive nation. >_
The only Straczynski episode I haven't seen is "The Ghostbusters! Live, from Al Capone's Tomb!". Wonder if that one is any good?
Pffft, ironic that with that joke about people offended by literally everything when I've seen at least one person worried Phelous was *Alt-Right* of all things, mostly because he joked about tumblr.
Yes, really.
WTF?
given the popularity of this speical its a crying shame that they could not reboot the Real Ghostbusters! series for a primetime family viewing slot to keep everyone happy.
To be fair the whole internet is prime offend territory
TOBY FAIR but yes~. Not like anyone's complaining...ahh damn it
MegaDeathRay10 TRIGGERED
Untrue, like 50% of people just complain about the easily offended people, 20% of the people are easily offended, and everyone else is too dumb to care.
ProbeVoyages
You mean too normal to care
AkumetsuLord idk, when the internet plays such a big role in people's lives and a pretty big group wants to change it, I think most people should care.
From what I heard shelling the child from everything makes them a wussy
I had to get my ass kicked by life in order to grow up. This is an unfortunate reality. Generation X were terrible parents.
love your vids man, bustin makes us feel good
Nice
Sweet. Watching before it broke 100 views.
Still can't understand the line "fluffer nutters "making it on here during the Q5 bullshit. Or for that matter the line at all. Hadn't heard it on anything before or since.
A fluffernutter is a sandwich made with peanut butter and marshmallow cream.
My favorite song is paranoid.
4:29 this is hilarious!
Was expecting a review of the atrocious Halloween ii and a half today!
In which season is The Halloween Door and which number it is?
Huh, I don't recall seeing this episode, I should check how far did the Hungarian dub go.
