    You know, in the original script, it was supposed to be a giant Pillsbury Dough Boy, but they couldn't get permission. What they put together was sort of a combination of the PDB, the Michelin Tire guy and possibly Bob's Big Boy.
    Dana had a bag of Stay Puft marshmallows on the kitchen counter next to the eggs. It's not something a first-time viewer would notice, but might notice when watching again. I think there was also a Stay Puft ad on the side of a building outside Ghostbusters headquarters and can be seen when the roof blows up.

    Not an 80:s film, but The Fifth Element (1997) has a similar spirit as Ghostbusters. It's a well paced, fast, fun action comedy also with a lot of quotable lines. Directed by Luc Besson and a great cast including Bruce Willis, Milla Jovovich, Cris Tucker and Gary Oldman. If you haven't watched it, I think you'll love it.

    Dan Ackroyd is a true believer, his family were all into the paranormal.
    The best lines "LISTEN ! Can you smell something ?" - "Gozer the Gozerian... good evening." - "I'm going to send you a nice fruit basket."
    Rick Moranis' accountancy monologue at the party was 100% improv. What a legend.
    So more 80s - Trading Places (Dan Ackroyd Eddie Murphey) - What About Bob - (Bill Murray Richard Dreyfuss) and one noone is doing that is SOOO funny - Stakeout (Richard Dreyfuss, Emilio Estevez). Look up Brat Pack movies as well - Lost Boys, Young Guns, St Elmos Fire. That's the 80s !

It happened and sent the crew into hysterics 3) the pyrotechnics on the maid's cart scared her and her "What the hell are you doing?" reaction is real 4) in the montage scene, when Egon looks over his shoulder, it's because the crew wasn't supposed to shoot there so a security guard was chasing the actors and it ended up in the film 5) the ghost bj scene is a deleted scene where Ray and Winston visit a haunted Army fort 6) John Candy was supposed to play Louis but he wanted to play Louis as a German man with two big German Shepard dogs 7) when Peck gets drenched in marshmallow, the crew used 50 gallons (I think) of shaving cream and it nearly knocked the stuntman off his feet 8) Paul Reubens (Pee-Wee Herman) was the original choice for Gozer

It's not the greatest game, but it is fun, especially customizing the character to make myself as a ghostbuster. Worth a whirl to play together IMHO.
    There's also an amazing singleplayer game from 2009 that they've remastered that you can get on steam. It features all the actors and Aykroyd and Ramis worked with the writers. It's basically the 3rd movie we never got, in game form.

    The legendary Elmer Bernstein did the score for the film. He has done epics like the Ten Commandments, Ben Hurr, and other classics from the late 50's and early 60's. From the 80's onward he would do the score for various films, but you can always notice his style.
    Originally John Candy was to play the part that Rick Moranis plays. John Candy just didn't understand the part, and kept wanting to do a German accent. He eventually let the guys know the part wasn't for him, but he knew of a guy that would be excellent. He recommended Moranis, since Candy knew of his work from SCTV. Rick Moranis instantly understood the part and for his audition did exactly what you see in the film. Moranis became really well know after the film, and helped him land larger parts later on. That's the sort of person John Candy was, if he felt he couldn't do a part he would always recommend someone else, and usually help make them a bigger star.

    In the days before CGI, there were still special effects. And because they are real, they look more real. The cards were propelled from the card catalog by little compressed air tubes, The green blob ghost (later informally called "Slimer") was meant to represent the late John Belushi, who had recently died. The slime is (as always) Methyl Cellulose, which is typically used as a food thickener and is, thus, non-toxic. Although there is an actual building at Central Park West that was used for the entrance to Dana's building, many floors were added via matte painting, and to create the temple and elaborate roof. For the buckling street, a copy of the entrance and first few floors was built at the studio. The main temple set was built on the sound stage and surrounded by a giant cyclorama of the New York skyline. All courtesy of the production designer, the late, great John De Cuir.

    Trivia: the opening scene in the library was shot in a storage room of the downtown L.A., California Library with shelves and books added. Also the Biltmore Hotel downtown L.A. for "the Sedgewick Hotel." I recall they said the catalog cards flying out they did with a blower from a hole in the back.

    I love your reaction you two. This is what we got in 80s when you get the best comedians and actors and actresses to do a film. From Signory, Annie Potts, Dan, Bill, Ernie, Harold, Rick. They made this movie. Yes, I like that you caught this was comedy, but it had a great story and lore. This is why we love it. Plus, this was different type of hero movie. Comedy and men of science becoming heroes and willing to do anything to save their city.

    I had a behind the scenes book when i was a kid. They DID build massive sets. The Stay Puft scene was just a guy in a suit. Walking through a miniature NYC with lots of model cars and model trees for Central Park. Same with a lot of the "dog" shots. There's actors in the suits. Slimer was a guy wearing a Slimer suit on his torso with black pants.

    8:40 - The eggs scene is some classic low-tech movie magic. The eggs are apparently pre-scored to crack a certain way, there's some sort of pnuematic pusher or blower under the part of the counter to push them out, and the portion of countertop they cook on is actually a ceramic hotplate. That's why the marshmallow bag isn't melting.

    I remember watching this movie 🎥 in cinema back in 1984 and immediately loved it. My brother who watched it with his friends loved it so much that he bought a cassette tape of Ghostbusters soundtrack which included this song, songs by other artists heard in the movie and the beautiful musical instrumental arrangement scored by Elmer Bernstein. Unfortunately both the mentioned audio cassette and the video tapes that I watched on TV with my friends a year later were pirated copies as we were too young to buy the originals. The video tape was rented by one of my friends’ cousin who loved it so much that he made an illegal copy of it then in turn rented out to me. Slick the cousin. However I enjoyed both experiences back in the ‘80s. Such were the good ole times😅

    The cards flying out of the card catalog is honestly the easiest effect to pull off. You can pretty much see the mechanism. There is a shuttle with a wheel on it that spins very fast and is either pulled by a string or pushed with a spring up against the cards. The wheel flings them up in the air. The eggs were pushed with air lines under the counter.

    The marshmallow Man suits cost approximately $20,000 to $30,000 each despite the cost, they weren’t pleasant to be in, not least because the guy in the suit was on supplied air, as the foam itself was said to be toxic. Three marshmallow suits were made, and all were destroyed during filming. The Marshmallow was barrels of shaving foam, Most of which was memorably dumped on EPA lawyer Walter Peck without his knowledge. The ghost's and the streams were animated one frame at a time, so one second of ghost footage took about threes weeks to complete.

It was amazing, I loved it, and it scared the hell out of me (probably a bit young to watch it alone, tbh) and I have ever since. The newest film was such a good offering as well.

    Just an FYI ... the librarian in the beginning scene also plays Ray Finkle's "crazy lady" mom in Ace Ventura: Pet Detective.
    Now, just a comment about something you asked ... When Louis got caught outside the restaurant, YES, the patrons DID see him, but this was more a social commentary about how people in New York seem cold sometimes, choosing to ignore something after seeing it because they see so much crime and weird things happening. So, once they reacted to his screams, they just went back to whatever they were doing (i.e. eating, talking, joking, etc.).

    According to the commentary track by director Ivan Reitman, the eggs cooking was done pretty simply. Half of the counter is actually a hot griddle, and that portion is slightly darker than the rest. The effect was done simply by heating the eggs. Exploding like that is just what eggs do when hot enough.

    10:00 - that comes primarily from Dan Aykroyd's contributions to the script. His family and he have longstanding ties to the spiritism movement, and all the technical jargon surrounding how ghosts exist, what they're made of, how the ghostbusting equipment operates comes from him. The project was very much his baby and the original draft was significantly more ambitious, with the Ghostbusters operating across multiple dimensions battling gigantic lovecraftian monstrosities - the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man was originally going to be just one of the monsters they faced - but to make the movie on the budget they were given, it got pared down to what we see in the finished film.

    01:37: "This feels like a horror movie. . . did you trick me?!?" "No."
    But kind of yes. . . but mostly no?
    01:59: "How did they DO that?"
    False wall, stage hand behind pushing the drawers out, then air hoses to spray the cards everywhere. Sometimes, the simple tricks are the best tricks.
    02:51: "Oh my God, he's kind of slimy."
    Well. . . not yet. . .
    10:26: The gizmo is one of many science-y props the production had, and Bill Murray picked it for this scene specifically because it was the most funny. It's actually a tool for taking air samples, hence the squeezy bulb.
    Yeah, Venkman's Lovable Sex Maniac pick-up artist antics have NOT aged well. Thankfully, he kind of redeems himself when Zuul is throwing "herself" at him and he refuses, legitimately trying to help and reach Dana. Showing that, while he's certainly out to "score," he's not going to take advantage.
    She doesn't turn up until the end, but Sigourney Weaver is in a great movie called "Cabin In The Woods."

The Cartoon is excellent and a lot of background information on the characters. Some say the video of game is more of a Ghostbusters 3. But i recommend the film 'Evolution' thats more of a Ghostbusters 3 or 4. An was directed by the original director of Ghostbusters with the same vibe. Great cast too. Great reaction
