Oscar's in his thirties now, if the old characters only have a few minutes of screen time, no need to mention him. He's off, doing whatever it is Oscar Barrett would be doing, instead of Ghostbusters stuff.

The figure has a set of keys hanging from his belt.

So I picked up this fun little book. It’s half in-universe and the author basically scraped both movies and the RGB cartoon and toys for just about any ghost they could to fill out the pages.

One of the very first pages lists:


oh my god.

I got the green cover from a book exchange. Even has Fearsome Flush in there.

In some ways it almost seems like this movie discards GB2 from the canon. I remember in the first trailer when Paul Rudd was like "wait, you guys never heard of the Ghostbusters?" and he pulls up a YouTube video of them approaching the apartment building at the end of GB1. It seems absolutely ludicrous that nobody would remember them after the Statue of Liberty started walking around town and the Titanic pulled into port.

Also the car in the movie is obviously Ecto-1 and not Ecto-1A

Yeah, it's kind of very well known, at least outside of super-guarded Facebook groups.

The one casting surprise that I heard rumoured, and not confirmed whatsoever, is that (seriously, don't read if you don't want to know because I can totally see this happening) JK Simmons plays Ivo Shandor

Would've been nice to have before the movie, but definitely getting this to go with my Spengler wand, and my suit I just finished this week. Strangely, the elbow pads were the hardest part to get.

Someone pointed out the blue light is static which could be disappointing if that's the case for a presumably premium price point.

I’m assuming that’s probably not the final product, since Haslab has to refine it first.

Yeah from the shots at the start of the new trailer where Egon has something caught in a trap and is chased back to his house I was assuming that'd be the case, it's a pretty clever way of stopping Gozer from being able to return. No Keymaster = no gate!

Glad to see it’s a Haslab production since we won’t have to worry about it selling out as long as we get our orders in on time.

A proton pack is cool, but what I'm really hoping for is a containment unit minifridge.
