I was both happy and sad about this scene. Despite the fact that the last time we got all four actors voicing lines for their characters in the Ghostbusters video game, this scene would be the last time we would see all four OG characters together on the big screen. Rest in Peace, Mr. Ramis and Mr. Reitman. You are both missed. :*(
one thing it took me a bit to realize, was the logistics of the OG's showing up when they did. Ray gets the phone call, gets a few clues that Egon's running off had more than what was on the surface, and he calls up Peter and Winston and they IMMEDIATELY get the move on to go help. Decades of them thinking he had done them dirty, but the hint that his kids needed some help, and they were there.
I still can't forgive Bill Murray for refusing to do Ghost Busters again until after Ramis died, and then tried to take all the credit for bringing it back.
For CGI, they did a phenomenal job making Egon's ghost look as human as possible with little to no distinction of it being computer generated; a difficult feat. It looks like Harold Ramis is actually there. Impressive. RIP to my favorite ghostbuster, and the legend who directed the first two. Thanks for making my childhood
I was very appreciative of that aspect of the scene as well. One of the most important facets of the respect shown here was keeping Egon’s character silent. Having ai or someone else attempt it would have been blasphemous.
I genuinely didn’t like the frozen empire but this one I LOVED! It was so perfectly done and I loved how Egon was brought in in such a beautiful way I lost it when he hugged them goodbye!
Ramis and Murray were very close friends IRL until the filming of Groundhog Day. The arguments and anger boiled over into some actual violence on set. They then didn't even speak to each other for over 20 years. Then one day, out of the blue, Murray told family that he had a feeling about Ramis. So he shows up at his house with what he remembered was Ramis's favorite doughnuts. They talked through the night and made up.. Ramis passed away not long after that. Murray became a notoriously difficult prima Donna to have on set. Ramis was one of the few people he'd listen to and reign it in. But after fame seriously got to his head, even Ramis could no longe contain him. It's honestly a sad story.. I'm more inclined to believe Murray has real psychological issues that needed resolving. He must of finally got the help he needed, then sensed time was short and didn't want to be on bad terms with his best friend. But two decades.. ugh...
Having Ray, Peter and Winston speaking to Egon after trapping Gozer broke the 4th wall for me. It was like the actors broke character too missing Harold 😢
it is so wonderful for honoring for Aykroyd and Murry and Husdon showing love and pay tribute their best friend since I see that really got me into happy tears
It disappoints me to no end that they didnt kill off Leia when we all thought she would die, only to then rehash and reuse assetts to zombify them - and they did it in Rogue One. TWICE
@@legionloki She wasn't planned on being killed off. At least, not start off the third movie with her dead. Not sure if they were going to kill her off in the third or not, just to kill her off, like they did with Han and Luke. Fact is, they never should've had the trilogies with the original actors as Han, Luke and Leia. They should've continued the trilogy a couple years after RotJ and followed Legends Star Wars but improved upon it.
Egon is my guy! As a child Ghostbusters was my favorite movie and cartoon, had all the toys. I still get teary when I see this scene. RIP Harold Ramis!
What would've made this even more moving for Murray was that, for 20 years before Ramis death, he and Bill had not spoken to each other due to a heated argument they once had. It's a lesson to never let anything ruin a beautiful friendship❤
it was stated in Harolds Autobiography written by his Daughter. Bill had a feeling about Harold; he went and visited and made up with Harold before his passing.
The argument happened during the filming of Groundhog Day.. Ramis's father got into a scuffle with Murray over his severely bad treatment of Ramis. Murray even admitted it was all in him, he was a full blown utterly unreasonable prima Donna at the time, and still is hence why many won't work with him.
According the Harold’s daughter I think they made up a bit before he died and he died not long after so I’m glad they didn’t part on bad terms. Still this scene hits hard for everyone, not only the people making the film but for all us fans.
Fun fact when Dan was told he had a line badmouthing Harold (egon) he asked to read the script just so he could understand the reason behind it and he agreed to do it after reading it since he did understand why he had to say it but It still made him cry to say it understandably
This was a very healthy dose of nostalgia for everyone that grew up in these movies. One of the most important facets of the respect shown here was keeping Egon’s character silent. Having ai or someone else attempt it would have been blasphemous.
i may be a 2003 baby, but i grew up always watching ghostbusters with my dad, it was one memory ill cherish even when hes gone, and i grew up loving all of this characters so much so this scene.....seeing all four of them on the screen together, made me bawl like a damn baby, rest in peace Mr.Ramis, and long live your memory that you gave to so many people, not even death can bring down the OG ghostbusters
As am I. My parents and I love the Ghostbusters movies and when we saw this we had a smile across our faces and I found out I actually share a birthday with the late Harold Ramis, I always like to think I was destined to be a Ghostbusters fan. Or as Peter Venkman once said, "For whatever reasons Ray call it fate, call it luck, call it karma. I believe that everything happens for a reason."
I love how each of the Ghostbuster’s reactions to seeing Egon pretty much sums up their personality. Winston is freaked out, Venkman isn’t fazed at all, and Ray is just happy.
I have said it many times.... to me, even seeing it the first time in cinema.... Vankman "I knew you would turn up", Rays "Im sorry, i didnt belive you." and Winstons "I should have called, i miss you my friend" to me, this wasnt Ray, Peter and Winston...it was Dan, Bill and Ernie saying.... "Sorry Harold, we should have done this, while we had time." BTW the cinema, i saw this scene the first time, went silent when Egon appears, but when the sky showed "for Harold" it was an eruption of applause
What makes Ray's statement more painful was that the Ghostbuster's motto was "We're ready to believe you", and the Ghostbusters lost a friend for a generation because they couldn't apply their own motto to one of their own.
I believe..... The body double actor for Harold was actually the VA who played Egon in the show "The Real Ghostbusters" who was also a friend of the ramis family.
@@DEATH111183 Im going off the credits of the movie and the IMDB page for the movie and for the actor, Bob Gunton, which all have him listed as the person playing the motion capture for the role. Mister rogers tattoos was always a rumor that's been discredited, as well as claims he was in the military since he has no service record and never claimed to have served. There's actual evidence that Bob Gunton did the motion capture for Egon, including video of him doing so before they super imposed Harold Ramis' face on him in post-production. So between the IMDB pages, movie credits, movie director talking about him in the role, and video of him doing the acting role on the set before the face superimposition being available online, I think it's safe to say it isnt a rumor or theory that he did the role. Plus, the VA for Igon in the cartoons, Maurice Lamrche, is credited nowhere for the role of Igon in Afterlife.
@@Aaron-ej9ql I'm not trying to debate with you. I'm just saying I've heard different. Also IMDb isn't the infallible source of information on movie and TV info people think it is. Hell last I looked at it (5 or 6 years ago) it still claimed dragon ball/dragon ball z was ported to American TV in 1997, but I watched it, dubbed, in 91 on upn kids after school at 3:30 pm Monday through Friday..... DBZ Sunday morning cartoon block 6:30am to 8:30am. IMDb can and has been wrong given that knowledge. As far as the Mister Rogers reference, I was stating that to illustrate that we might differ on the logistics of behind the scenes info, but we still agree with the fact he shaped the childhood of a generation, much like ramis, akryod, and reitman did with the Ghostbusters. Nevermind the hearsay behind the camera.
@DEATH111183 I'm down to see any actual evidence that you're right. Please put it here. You can actually see the filmed footage of the guy I said filming the actual scenes. That's pretty irrefutable. The actual footage of him on set, filming the scenes, before they spliced Harold ramis face over his. If you can give me even a picture of the VA from the cartoon even on the set it'd be something. Literally Google bob on the set and you can watch him acting alongside of the actors in the movie, including the original cast. Is all of that made up to secretly hide a voice actors actual performance for unexplained reasons? I tried putting a link to the video of Bob filming the scenes here but it was deleted. You can Google it though. I can't imagine why they'd credit Bob in the actual movie credits, have footage of him filming the actual scenes alongside of the cast, and give him 100% credit, all to refilm it and hide an unknown voice actors actual involvement. That's just insane and there is zero evidence except you saying so. Your claim is the credits in the movie are wrong, IMDB is wrong, the director is lying, and the behind the scenes filmed footage is faked all to have an uncredited VAs standing in secretly hidden for no reason whatsoever. Yeah, logic checks out.
I didn’t cry like a baby, but I cried nonetheless. Lost my Dad almost 40 years ago and he would have loved these movies, but my grandfather’s who had a hand in raising me passed away around the time they were making this and it definitely makes me think of them. God bless!
@@kristen-solivan777 well, none of us knew him, from interviews, he seamed like a friendly guy. This was our way to say "good bye". And the director NAILED IT.
they missed an opportunity to have Gozer complete the reference: Gozer: "are you a god?" Busters: "yes, we are all gods." Gozer: "Then FLY!" *launches them into the car*
I like the idea that Venkman isn't even all that shocked to see Egon's ghost there at first, like he figured ahead of time he was going to show up somehow, takes two looks at him and was internally like 'Yep, that tracks.' and went right back to finishing the job.
Such a great way for the remaining Ghostbusters to say farewell both to his afterlife "ghost", but also saying farewell to their late friend! And people who grew up with these films were also able to say a farewell to Mr.Ramis. People have been reported leaving the movie theatres in tears. It is such a brilliant way to make an ending of Dr.Egon Spengler in the franchise and making their late friend, Mr.Harold Ramis be in the film and as a hero not to mention!. Mr.Harold Ramis, may you Rest In Piece! And also, lets keep Gozer in the traps underground now!
There's a lot of comments about the cgi and how it was great and how it wasn't great but it doesn't matter. That scene brought back the old feeling and that was what mattered. The cgi didn't have to be perfect - it just had to be good enough not to take you out of the moment and it did it's job. Those 4 guys came together and just made movie magic on the big screen and this reminded us of that. RIP Mr. Ramis and thank you! Thank you to all of them - Mr. Akroyd, Mr. Hudson, Mr. Ramis and Mr. Murray! This was a huge part of my childhood and one of the fondest memories!
Grew up with guys. My time period growing up as a youngster this is what you wanted to be. Took my grandkids to this. When Egon showed up, talk about a gutshot.. trying to hold back the tears to no avail. Haven't watched a movie this moving for a long time..
This scene was well-written as a nice tribute to Harold Ramis. Tasteful, respectful, and honorable. Kudos to veteran actor, Bob Gunton, as 'Egon's' physical motion capture role, with Harold Ramis' likeness superimposed.
I whole heartedly love this movie,it took 20+ years to get one made and then COVID delayed this movie 2 more years but we finally got a story worthy of the name GHOSTBUSTERS👍💯
I love the guys' reactions to their friend's reappearance. They're silent but still very expressive. Winston: "Uh, fellas...please tell my you're seeing this too" Peter: "Yeah, that's about right." Ray: "HOLY CRAP! EGON, IS THAT REALLY YOU?!"
Harold Ramis, Dan Aykroyd and Bill Murray...they did a lot of movies together, so I'm sure this one was a way for them to kind of say goodbye to him in one of their more family-orientated movies. I choked up when I saw this scene, since I'm an 80's kid and Ghostbusters was one of my favorite movies.
the last scene w egon made me cry since he died i think a couple years ago, but they made it so well and paid tribute to him so nicely. my eyes water every time i see the film
My dad Harold has been gone almost 40 years and watching this made me feel his awesome hug all over again we Miss you guys so much Harold! Where the creativity of the movie believe it or not❤❤❤
Ok imma say it this scene made me tear up I'm man enough to admit it I grew up in the 90s but I was very fortunate to know the ghostbusters movies and who Egon was so when I saw this scene came up I teared up and it still makes me tear up in a good way i loved how this was done thank you for honoring Harold Ramis this way this is how it's done
the most heart felt tribute to a wonderful man i could think of i was so happy this movie was made and the og Busters came back and once again busted some ghosties
I thought it was real cool and classy that they brought back a legend in ghost form but what makes it even cooler is the fact that they got a legend to do the body double for Harold Ramis 0:56
I don’t care what anybody says. For Ghostbusters fans from the 80’s and 90’s this was an absolutely amazing scene, done to perfection. It may be short but to me it’s the Ghostbusters 3, we all waited for.
About the Ghostbusters, for me is this the saddest scene Ever!!!! R.I.P. Harold Ramis!!! Its so sad that he is not alive in this scene but I think to make him a Ghost is still the BEST Legacy we can give him an Tribute!!!
Aw I got a little emotional. I watched the original films in the early 90's when I was maybe 10-12 years old. I watched this movie with my 13 year old daughter this year. A genuine passing of the baton to the next gen, but honouring what came before. Love it!
I have to be honest as a big Ghostbusters fan. The movie itself was well put together, the Actors were Fantastic, but this moment right here, was a bit off a tear jerker, to see Harold Ramis with the team was amazing.
Harold Ramis should have got a reward for being not only the best ghostbuster but a true legend R.I.P mate even to this DAY in 2024 nearly at Christmas i still play the OG song ( Savin The Day ) from ghostbusters 1 just for you it would have been cool if they played that song when he started to appear as a ghost would not only help tie in the franchise but would have given some OG fans some flash backs Miss ya buddy
Christ sakes, I’m starting to cry like I did on opening night. It just always gets me when Egon guides her thrower, then when I see all four of them back together - I just lose it completely. I’m not ashamed to say I’ve cried whenever I see this.
Ghostbusters Afterlife is a good movie. The new cast members are good. Getting to meet Egon's family. It felt good to see the original Ghostbusters together. Egon, Ray Winston and Peter. Back together again. It was emotional to. When your a big fan of Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters 2. To see them together years later is great. I can't get over it's been 40 years for the first Ghostbusters movie. 👻❤️
Something that must not be forgotten appart of CGI/...of Harold Ramis beiing part of the movie is that who directed it was Jason Reittman, 1 of Ivan Reitman sons.
I loved this scene, especially when Ray, Peter and Winstead showed up, but when Ghost Egon appeared, I became that same 5 year old kid (was 5 when it first released in theaters) all over again and was both excited and felt my feels destroyed.
I was both happy and sad about this scene. Despite the fact that the last time we got all four actors voicing lines for their characters in the Ghostbusters video game, this scene would be the last time we would see all four OG characters together on the big screen.

Maybe he really was there
They used scans from the first 2 movies and used the character model from the 2009 game as a base
He was actually there you know.
Nah this is 6:51 wrong, that lightning supposed in front the leg
They uses another actor to play his character before editing the face.
8:49 "I miss you, my friend". That wasnt just Winston talking to Egon, that was Ernie Hudson talking to Harold Ramis ❤

Grew up with guys. My time period growing up as a youngster this is what you wanted to be. Took my grandkids to this. When Egon showed up, talk about a gutshot.. trying to hold back the tears to no avail. Haven't watched a movie this moving for a long time..
I feel happy tears from seeing the Ghostbusters reunited I never forgotten that moment
I freaked out in theatre at this. I knew it was coming but I still geeked out when the came on screen then cried for Egon
I love that ray almost said no again
lol right? LIKE COME ON RAY
The look on Winston's face?🤨 PRICELESS.😂😂😂
This scene was well-written as a nice tribute to Harold Ramis. Tasteful, respectful, and honorable.
Kudos to veteran actor, Bob Gunton, as 'Egon's' physical motion capture role, with Harold Ramis' likeness superimposed.
I loved that scene so much! It reminded me of the Father-Son Kamehameha 😂
Are u a god ?
Rey: oh shit, when i say no again.....😂😂
❤I cried when I saw that he was added with his friends
That was a beautiful moment and such a great tribute to Harold Ramis.
I whole heartedly love this movie,it took 20+ years to get one made and then COVID delayed this movie 2 more years but we finally got a story worthy of the name GHOSTBUSTERS👍💯
It's the sequel we deserved.
The pain in Rays voice when he apologises is heart-wrenching
Best scene ever to see the original Ghostbusters back. Sad though that Harold Ramis died before this movie came out.
Ghostbusters ps3 is a good story
@@Yoshimatsu-h4x and sequel to ghostbuster 2
I love the guys' reactions to their friend's reappearance. They're silent but still very expressive.
Winston: "Uh, fellas...please tell my you're seeing this too"
Peter: "Yeah, that's about right."
Ray: "HOLY CRAP! EGON, IS THAT REALLY YOU?!"
This scene, and the piano playing scene from Maverick… always brings a tear
Im glad i was alone at the theater when watching this one, because i cried and cried like a f***ing baby.
As a kid growing up in Caribbean, the ghostbusters was one my faves. This screen brought tears of joy.
Harold Ramis, Dan Aykroyd and Bill Murray...they did a lot of movies together, so I'm sure this one was a way for them to kind of say goodbye to him in one of their more family-orientated movies. I choked up when I saw this scene, since I'm an 80's kid and Ghostbusters was one of my favorite movies.
I still get choked up watching this scene
3:33 this was everyone’s reaction to see them return
Call me a whip but I cried right here @7:15 😢😢😢🎉🎉❤❤❤❤ I'm a 79 baby I grew up watching them and have rewatched ghost busters many times
Dude,….. I love Harold Ramis. Loved him, his films and his comedy, so when I saw they did this I burst into tears.
Love this! Egon was always my favorite!
I love how the mom stands in Gozers way 'You go through me first'!
Scene gets me everytime 😢. I'm glad they didn't try to use words cause it was perfect ❤
4:33 God I love that sound
Yeah me too
😂 The God Dogs should've helped Gozer when the Ghostbusters put the beams on her...lol
Not gonna lie, I cried hard the first five times I saw Egon. I've toned down to a tear or two now. 😢
They came, they saw, and to this day, they still kicked ass.
the last scene w egon made me cry since he died i think a couple years ago, but they made it so well and paid tribute to him so nicely. my eyes water every time i see the film
This scene hits so freaking hard. Grew up watching and loving Ghostbusters. I was very happy and sad to see him one last time. R.I.P.
My dad Harold has been gone almost 40 years and watching this made me feel his awesome hug all over again we Miss you guys so much Harold! Where the creativity of the movie believe it or not❤❤❤
I cried a lot when I saw this in the theaters. So much wonderful nostalgia for the four.
"On the count of 3, go on 2" 😂
Ok imma say it this scene made me tear up I'm man enough to admit it I grew up in the 90s but I was very fortunate to know the ghostbusters movies and who Egon was so when I saw this scene came up I teared up and it still makes me tear up in a good way i loved how this was done thank you for honoring Harold Ramis this way this is how it's done
I maybe a 2011 person but i will always love this and the original movies. This one is the best ever since the original
I definitely get the impression that with those last lines, they weren't acting.
Winston's line is the most heart wrenching one in the movie.
I miss him too.
I’m not crying!!! It’s just an eyelash in my eyes is all 😢😢😢😢😢
Then get it out
the most heart felt tribute to a wonderful man i could think of i was so happy this movie was made and the og Busters came back and once again busted some ghosties
Still crying. RIP Mr Ramis, it was good to see you one last time. Signed, A kid with imagination.
This scene no matter how many times I watch it makes me cry. They really put the feels into this.
I thought it was real cool and classy that they brought back a legend in ghost form but what makes it even cooler is the fact that they got a legend to do the body double for Harold Ramis 0:56
This is so cool. First time I ever ever seen a ghost get taken out by the ghost of a Ghostbuster.
2:38 I don’t even want to know what that would feel like💀😂
Probably as bad as it looks like being possessed in that way.
The way I teared up was unreal, I'm so glad they did this ❤
I don’t care what anybody says. For Ghostbusters fans from the 80’s and 90’s this was an absolutely amazing scene, done to perfection. It may be short but to me it’s the Ghostbusters 3, we all waited for.
I choked up a bit when this scene went down. 😢
3:26 when I was in the theatre I yelled THEIR BACK BOYYYYYSSSSSS
About the Ghostbusters, for me is this the saddest scene Ever!!!! R.I.P. Harold Ramis!!! Its so sad that he is not alive in this scene but I think to make him a Ghost is still the BEST Legacy we can give him an Tribute!!!
Harold ramis come back to help his grandson the fight all the ghost with his old friends I really love that scene
Aw I got a little emotional. I watched the original films in the early 90's when I was maybe 10-12 years old. I watched this movie with my 13 year old daughter this year. A genuine passing of the baton to the next gen, but honouring what came before. Love it!
seeing the OG Ghost Busters together gave me tears for a second, and my childhood instantly flashes. ❤
I have to be honest as a big Ghostbusters fan. The movie itself was well put together, the Actors were Fantastic, but this moment right here, was a bit off a tear jerker, to see Harold Ramis with the team was amazing.
In the theatre with my kids and dad… the water works!!!!! Perfect!!😊
This return outshines all remakes or variations of the franchise. Not my biased opinion, its fact. Bringing back Goza and finaly trapping her, epic.
3:33 Goozer was so happy to see them again. Most likely imagining unnumbered means to kill them slowly
Harold Ramis should have got a reward for being not only the best ghostbuster but a true legend R.I.P mate even to this DAY in 2024 nearly at Christmas i still play the OG song ( Savin The Day ) from ghostbusters 1 just for you it would have been cool if they played that song when he started to appear as a ghost would not only help tie in the franchise but would have given some OG fans some flash backs Miss ya buddy
I remember screaming when I saw this in theaters
this scene literally made me sob. for a second i thought he was really there and i remembered he passed away years before this ;-;
My mother and I both cried when Egon's ghost appeared to help.
6:25 Amazing 😢
Christ sakes, I’m starting to cry like I did on opening night. It just always gets me when Egon guides her thrower, then when I see all four of them back together - I just lose it completely. I’m not ashamed to say I’ve cried whenever I see this.
This was heartwarming and pure writing genius too. 👍❤️
Okay I cried a bit. Goddamnit I need an moment please
I love how they all still have the same chemistry lol
😭💔 R.I.P. Harold
Ghostbusters Afterlife is a good movie. The new cast members are good. Getting to meet Egon's family. It felt good to see the original Ghostbusters together. Egon, Ray Winston and Peter. Back together again. It was emotional to. When your a big fan of Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters 2. To see them together years later is great. I can't get over it's been 40 years for the first Ghostbusters movie. 👻❤️
I cried at this scene when Egons ghost apperes
You are by no means the only one. Egon fan from day one here, too.
Something that must not be forgotten appart of CGI/...of Harold Ramis beiing part of the movie is that who directed it was Jason Reittman, 1 of Ivan Reitman sons.
The fact that they got the originals on there is dope
That’s the 2nd time Egon’s been a ghost.
@GipsyDangerfanin the cartoon of the series, can’t remember which episode though
I loved this scene, especially when Ray, Peter and Winstead showed up, but when Ghost Egon appeared, I became that same 5 year old kid (was 5 when it first released in theaters) all over again and was both excited and felt my feels destroyed.
