🚣RowboatMan: ❄️Freezing time🕰️ is an old P.I. 🥧trick...

If they're releasing the cereal now that features those little guys, I'm less worried that they settled on this clip to release.

It'd be interesting if this clip doesn't even make it into the final film.

Do you like scary movies?



I'm figuring someone here'll have a better memory on it, but wasn't there in one of the Ghostbuster cartoons something with the mini Stay Pufts?

Exploration is ill-advised.
The Real Ghostbusters is a seperate canon from the movies (and they crossed over in the comics) but it also has a Marshmallow Man, presumably with a different backstory.

Why a different backstory? I thought it was based on the first movie, and then they just ran with it and put him in different episodes?

E: Nevermind, I remember now how the guys in the RGB went to see the first movie in theatres. I get you now.

Also, to the previous goon, there WAS an episode with a ton of Slimers. Maybe that's what you're thinking of?

I was under the impression in RGB that the film's events still happened. I think there's one episode set straight after where they still have marshmallow on their grey suits which subsequently come to life.

As evidenced by the fact that they watch Ghostbusters in the theater, The Real Ghostbusters was the story of the real Ghostbusters. The movie Ghostbusters is therefore a cinematic adaptation of their high profile fight against Zuul.

Yep. Also they brought Stay Puft back several times in the cartoon, in one episode he'd become a good guy and helped them out by fighting a mantis kaiju that was running loose in NYC.

I always appreciated that Venkman said “That guy doesn’t look anything like me.”

They couldn't get the likeness rights to the actors so they just went the other way. Comes up in the comics iirc, when the movie Egon goes missing they briefly borrow the cartoon one and call him 'Blonde Egon'. (there's a fun bit where one of them is like 'I know Egon, if he was dead the first thing he would do is show up in his lab to take readings on himself')

I think the implication is the events of the movie(s) loosely happened, with the in-universe movies being adaptations of them.

I can't recall the name, but I THINK it was an episode with Walter Peck and they put Slimer in a big spinny device that splits him into pieces.

No, that's a separate episode.

The blue slimers episode was The Adventures in Slime and Space.

The Walter Peck one was Big Trouble with Little Slimer.

In my opinion, those episode titles are backwards, but sometimes, poo poo happens, someone has to deal with it, and who ya gonna call?

I'm not sure since I thought I'd seen animation mini Stay Pufts and it might've been a return of Gozer episode of one of the cartoons. Equally it could be my brain playing tricks on me.

It seems that your concern is that the clip shows things happening that also happened in previous Ghostbusters movies. Well I have nothing to say to that lol

That Stay Puft in The Real Ghostbusters isn't Gozer, it's a different spirit that manifested as a giant Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.

I do believe they said they rehabbed the marshmallow man. I do not know how this comes into play with your post, but I do know this: if Stay Puft can change we all have a chnace, amen

His family's been into occult stuff for a while. His dad, Peter Aykroyd, wrote a book on ghosts/mediums/etc that was partially compiled from from his own grandfather's investigation notes.

It really bugs me more than it should that this movie is finished, just sitting on a shelf, and we still won't see it until November. Everything's opening up! Get your big summer move out for the summer! Or, failing that, at least get it out in September/October so it can take advantage of spooky season!

Couple of set photos, and on some metal sheets, there's spray painted the quote from the book of revelations.

I'm hoping that the climax of this movie is everyone pretty much trying to prevent judgement day that's already started to happen. I know that's kind of how the first movie ended, but I wanna see the black skies, blood moon, seas boiling, all of that stuff, not just a big cloud over a city with an admittedly awesome enemy.

I wanna see real wrath of god stuff.

It just occurred to me that a lot of the stuff that Aykroyd originally wanted to include in the first movie but were rejected because they would have been wayyyyyyyyy too expensive would be reasonably affordable in this day and age

Did we get that in the Ghostbusters game? I vaguely recall that escalating but it might have been more in the travelling to hell rather than hell arriving on earth variety.
