Awesome video. The Ghostbusters movies were my childhood. RIP Harold Ramis...aka Eguen Spangler
The ceiling was GORGEOUS 🤩
You were born in 1979 I was born in 1980 and you made me remember some amazing things from my childhood...thank you.
Two other spots you can check out in LA, are from Ghostbusters II when they are digging the hole in the middle of the street, and when they go to see the Mayor, that house, which was also used in The Big Lebowski if i remember correctly. Great video guys x
Dude. The stand in for Gracie Mansion is the loading dock at the Biltmore was also used in Stripes in 1980.
Little side note, it was only the basement scenes where they see the librarian ghost that was filmed at the LA library. The upstairs is in New York :)
Your right i was about to post that before i saw your comment
A few years back, a few friends and I got a tour of Rat Alley, the basement of the LA Library, from a gentleman who was there when they filmed.
That’s odd. Didn’t they film the outskirts in NYC? So they would have had to have flown a few thousand miles just to do that Basement scene?
They may as well have done it on a sound stage.
@@Predators--cz2fb Im sure all the LA stuff was filmed together and theyre werent just going back and forth for every scene.
The library basement was a soundstage in LA, necessary because of the rigged card catalog, falling bookcase, etc.
I've been to the firehouse in New York. It's still a working firehouse and they use the Ghostbusters logo as their mascot. It's a very cool place to visit!
They filmed Bill Murray, Paul Rudd & the others there for Good Morning America.
Cool video! Another neat side note of the firehouse.. it was also used to film Ripleys Auto in The Mask with Jim Carrey! Even the three wooden lockers are still there!! Lol good thing Ripleys didn't work on Ecto-1
Grimm i can't even begin to tell you guy's how much I enjoy watching your UA-cam videos. I am a huge fan of Ghostbusters
Dan Aykroyd's dad was a ghost/paranormal hunter while he was growing up. When asked about his work with Ghostbusters he said, “It's the family business, for God's sake"
I thought I heard it was his brother who was a ghost hunter.
@@vincentstrack4933, it's the FAMILY business for God's sake!
@@fearlessjoebanzai didn't know about the father. I only saw an interview where he mentioned his brother. I wasn't criticizing, I just never heard of the father being interested in that work.
@@vincentstrack4933, I'm just teasing mate x
Reading the messages sometimes I miss read it. I actually didn't know. Thanks for the info. I just remembered the part about his brother. I didn't know his father was into it also. Wondering who got who into ghost hunting.
9:30/ Fun fact: Another 80's classic utilized this very hotel.... BACHELOR PARTY! Yup, the Tom Hanks comedy used the Los Angeles Biltmore Hotel for some of the interior AND exterior shots...
Oh my gosh, love these movies! I actually use the Ghostbusters theme as a ring tone for one of my contacts! 😁
Did you know the birthday scene in Ghostbusters II was filmed on the 3rd floor of that L.A. Firehouse?
Great video guys. Did you know the bodyguard and the infamous banana scene from beverly hills cop was filmed there? There was a fire at the los Angeles library I guess the basement is no longer there.
My favorite channel posting about my favorite movie....we love to see it
I love y’all videos ‼️‼️y’all have lured me away from dearly departed tours😆
When visiting the Biltmore hotel you forgot to mention it was the last place Elizabeth Short' The Black Dahlia ' was seen alive. Since you did a video on her previously I was surprised you didn't mention it.
If you drive by Sony studios going down Culver (westbound) you can usually spot the Ectomobile parked in the lot. You have to look between the gap in fence right before you hit the Overland light. I used to always see it being driven up and down Culver late at night. Got a video of it once right next to me. Pretty cool I think
Health and Safety Unsafe Emergency Fire Rod.
I miss the better days. Yes getting old. Brilliant movie and cast, always will be.
Thanks for exploring and sharing your experiences.
Ghostbusters is one of my all-time favorite movies. Wasn't a huge fan of the female version. Was a little too cheesy. But could have been worse. Love that you did this.
Yea, the female version was not as bad as I expected, nor was it as bad as most of these female redo’s.
Female Terminator redo ? No thanks.
@@kingdingaling2469 It was cosmetically bankrupt
@@StandWatie1862what does that even mean
@@kingdingaling2469 Movie was a comedy black hole.
Indeed and still wasn't as bad as these other turd remakes @@StandWatie1862
Great video! I didn't know the firehouse interior was back in L.A. Love your channel!
That was cool. Nice video
Awesome filming 👍 love your Ghostbuster shirt 👕
Hello from Guadalajara Mexico
Ahhh back when hollywood used actual locations to shoot movies. Now a days you wanna visit a film set just buy a green curtain.
Ghost Busters is one of my favorite TV shows and movies. I have every one that came out
My favorite part about Ghostbusters is that Louis and Dana..... well, you know.. he was the Key Master.
Another amazing walk along adventure with the GLC.
Grimm for Life!
This movie reminds of my childhood as well. The Biltmore is gorgeous. I'm so glad I found this channel. It is awesome!!!
@Grimmlifecollective they do a haunted L.A. walking tour and the Biltmore Hotel is one of the locations they take u to.
Busting makes Me feel good,
But Grimm life Makes me feel even better.
Bustin nuts?
Woe Bro…
Woe
Wow? Thanks guys, what a beautiful hotel x
I love that movie. I used to have some of the ghostbusters backpack.
Glad you were able to tour the hotel. Great video.😎👍
Love you guys watching now
Wow...you two amaze me. Always enjoy your content and appreciate the hard work you put into them. This is one of my all time favorite movies 😊
It's like Ray Parker Jr. said. Bustin' makes me feel good.
Also never knew that the crew and Dan Aykroyd and Mama Cass all both encountered poltergeist activity and also surprised the there were 2 famous people Mama Cass and the one from the National Lampoon that lived where Dan Aykroyd used to lived that definitely surprised me
I can’t believe I missed this one! Awesome as usual
One of my good friends lived in the iconic CPW building and used to always hang out on the roof. That roof is much larger than what the set shown in the movie. But it was fun pretending the Stay Puffed Marshmallow Man came walking down Columbus Circle.
I've been slimmed! Love the videos and keep them coming. Be safe and rock on
This is a great video yes that was a great movie thank you bringing back great memories
The lady with her thumb up her nose in that photo is legendary comedian Martha Raye, known for entertaining the troops for many years and many movies, commercials and tv shows. She played Benita Bizarre on the 70’s kid show “The Bugaloos”
My high school prom was at the Biltmore in 1995 and I remember thinking it was the fanciest place I had ever been!! I hope it never changes
Very fancy
You both are one of my favorite videos to watch I thought 💭 that your both was cool 😎 at the two events you were at this year
I stayed at the hotel a few years ago with my outfit and gear. It was so much fun.
Love the channel. Appreciate all your efforts to line up shots (correctly). I’m an actor and also a huge film fan. Anything BTS or then and now still fascinates me even though some of them are films and tv shows I’ve actually been in. Fun facts about the Biltmore Hotel. Beverly Hills cop was also filmed there and the famous banana in the tailpipe scene was shot across the street on Olive next to Pershing square. The bar at the biltmore is also the last known place where Elizabeth was scene before she was murdered. I heard she frequented that bar a lot as it was her favorite. Keep up the good work. Thanks.
I didn’t know that about the Black Dahlia.
Very well put together video. Thanks!
side note: Black Dahlia used to hang out in the Biltmore Lobby - her last sighting was leaving the south east door exit
Thanks man. 1979 eh? I was born in 69. I really wish I had got to see GB in the theater, but I don't remember going to movies with my dad from 1982 to his death in 1990 when I was 20 - I think the last movie I saw with him was Quest for Fire when I was 12 in 1981.
Awsome my favourite film. Liking all the new vids at your location!
Great video. Have you two been to the Los Angeles Public Library yet?
The Stay Puff Marshmelow Man is so cute and adorable. 😂😂😂♥️♥️♥️😁👍👍💜💜😍😍😍
You guys must be the couple with the best chemistry ever. Dude, u have no idea how lucky u are with a wife that completes you like this...i am a big fan of your channel, and the movies you pick...i was born in 77, and you two hit all my marks.
A lot of great history lesson about a great movie and then some. Awesome.
I love all the videos you post!!! This is awesome!!
I believe The Stanley Hotel was the inspiration for the shining, not the Biltmore. Although it was a common misconception from what I have briefly researched.
The lift scene in ghostbusters was from that hotel also. Great vid. 👍👍
I ain't afraid of no ghost 👻, I remember that when the movie came out that there was a toll free number to call the Ghostbusters, great movie and great memories
I'd love to invite you two to be guests on our Haunted LA & Hollywood bus tour. You two were actually at one point standing in the most haunted little corner of the Biltmore. We've got more stories and facts about the place that I can tell you two would appreciate!
Would love to hear some 👻
The interior of that LA firehouse also had V.I. Warshowski and yes The Mask and I think My Girl 2 another Aykroyd vehicle.
I recognized that when you panned your camera around
Theres many 80s movies i love watching every few years and both Ghostbusters 1 and 2 are on that list! I hated the remake with the girls but the most recent one with Paul Rudd was actually good! I still miss Egon. RIP Ivan Reitman. He was my favorite and his one liners always cracked me up.I also loved the cartoon as a kid.
The 2016 remake was far better than Ghostbusters 2. Even Bill Murray hated Ghostbusters 2
This is awesome!! So cool they let you film that✌💙🙏
thouth your videos think i need 3 weeks in hollywood next oct to find everything i hope lifes back in the uk soon to come over again x
Wow back to my childhood with this video Ghostbusters is the best
❤️ Ghostbusters!! My favourite is Ghostbusters 2!
Both the Ghostbusters films 🎥 are the best. Sorry Indiana Jones.
the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, CO was the Shining inspiration actually
Hi ,this is Jill saw uuuu guys at downtown Disney yesterday that moment was the bee's knees.It was a pleasure see both ( Happy Halloween 🎃🎃🎃 ). Ttul : )
Hi Jill! It was really nice meeting you as well. Yes, I’ll say it was the Bees Knees for sure. Stay Grimm and see you around!
This is friggin awesome guys!!! I LOVE Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters II !!!!! yaaaay!!! ♥️♥️💜♥️♥️
Will Ghostbusters 3 be the 1st of more ?? i`m hoping so or maybe a spin off TV show in the Cobra Kai type theme ? :):)
Cool video! I would have gotten in the lift and re-enacted the cockroach up on 12th scene lol
Even though I was born in the 2000s I love Ghostbusters well any 80s movie they are just so creative it's so cool
Awsome, well done, the eerie , ghostly links in the Biltmore too
I love your videos! Really I do! Because when I was going through my covid sickness and I had to stay away from my family! You guys were my lifeline to get me through that time!
Your video intros is the best...👍🏻
hi guys love your videos... Baby Ghoul that guy you're pointing at is Glenn Miller.. famous big band orchestrator
One can never escape the constant sound of leaf blowers!
Never! I swear if I make it to heaven there will be men with leaf blowers waiting as they open the pearly gates.
Cue the Curb Your Enthusiasm theme.
Just watching Beverly hills cop 3, also filmed at the Biltmore. Recognized from your shots.
Very cool. The lady that has her thumb on her nose is, Martha Raye.
Great video! Not sure if someone said this but Dan got into the paranormal as a kid! His dad debunked people that held seances and ripped people off! He always had super natural magazines laying around and thus got him interested! It’s a great story! I suggest finding interviews of this!worth the watch! Thanks for the great vids!
GRIMMLIFE GANG ALL DAY!!!
Mama Cass haunting that place for a ham sammach lol
Some interesting history on the Biltmore, and on Ghostbusters, Awesome video love the paranormal 👻
I’ve seen that hotel lobby in Beverly Hill Cop & Fabulous Baker Boys ❤
Really gourgous building! Cool past too:)
The top ,of the stairs where Jessica was standing was also used in the movie Bachelor Party I believe..
What a Great Fun Movie 🎥🍿 Love those times in Movies ⭐💪
Dan Aykroyd's dad was into paranormal. Samuel Peter Aykroyd. He has a book published entitled A History of Ghost..
Best content ever!! Greatest movies !! ❤❤
"You are def spookie." Her: *super friendly waves*
Love all of your videos my friend Greetings from BELGIUM Europe😄👍
Good video grim life collective on ghost busters locations.
On the Woodrow Wilson Drive is also the house of Colt Seavers. ;)
@grimmlifecollective I just did a little research about the academy awards... The Biltmore wasn't the first place the Ambassador Hotel was apparently but it was where the 4th Academy Awards were held on Nov. 30 1931 and (7th.8th.9th and 10th) and probably more
The picture with the woman with her finger up her nose was sitting next to Louis B. Mayer. Wow!!
The Biltmore Hotel also was in the Johnny Depp movie Blow
Awesome video love Ghostbusters
A little trivia! Mama Cass died in Curzon place in London, in the same flat (and indeed bedroom) as Keith Moon of the Who, he died 4 years after MC
Wasn't the biltmore the last place elizabeth short was seen alive? Some people confuse it with the cecil.
You are absolutely correct!
I love the Biltmore interior!!!
Never seen this before , great video !
That hotel is next level awesome, great vid, thanks.
Love Ghostbusters, Love Bill Murray, Love Ecto01 :D love
