It didn't bother me THAT much, I didn't cry, but I think it would've been better had they kept up that "invisible help from grandpa" angle all the way through.

Carrie Fisher at least agreed to and was paid for the scenes she filmed that were used in RoS so I dunno if i'd even call that grave robbing. Peter Cushing in Rogue 1 and Harold Ramis in GB is beyond gross though.

Ghostbusters 2 was the last shot at making a good Ghostbusters sequel. It's something that only really works with that group and in a specific time.

Groovelord Neato posted:I don't even mean this as an insult because I find it charming but that goes without saying when it comes to you. I agree, and I think any point after the mid-nineties was probably too late (and Evolution is probably what we would have got). I respect 2016 for trying to do its own thing and having its own sensibility, even if it does have an Ozzy cameo in 2016. Like, there's a little nostalgia baiting in there, but I don't feel it's ever distracting. That films problems are its own, and would remain there if it was its own stand-alone film. Afterlife is more insulting because, in its syrupy, gee-whiz, reverant way it manages to feel nothing like a Ghostbusters movie, despite playing with almost the entire (literal) toybox. It's like a cargo cult version of likeability, down to casting Paul Rudd. Any arguments that its for kids, or that it appeals to kids, are absolutely bunk considering the first movie was beloved by kids despite being about dysfunctional, schlubby middle-aged academics with two-mortgages. Afterlife isn't an awful sequel to The Real Ghostbusters, but it sucks as a sequel to Ghostbusters. Disco Pope fucked around with this message at 22:43 on Jan 31, 2023 |

I think 'Knock Knock' it was called, Frank Welker voiced this really spooky tree which doesn't sound like anything now but to a six year old or whatever Dawgstar it was chilling.

Parts of the 2016 movie were also filmed in Boston, as well as soundstages and backlots. https://www.atlasofwonders.com/2016/06/ghostbusters-filming-locations.html Of note, the interior of the Firehouse still exists in Los Angeles, but is no longer used by the Fire Deapartment. It is in an exceptionally rough part of town, Skid Row. Both GB 2016 and Afterlife built sets rather than film there. https://ghostbustersnews.com/2022/06/30/a-rare-look-inside-engine-co-23-the-los-angeles-fire-station-used-in-ghostbusters/

I've been watching the first few episodes of The Bear on Hulu. It's a drama about working in a kitchen. It captures that pretty well imo. Except there's more sex and drugs.  Anyway there's a Ghostbusters reference in episode 4. Apologies for the pictures of my TV. Hulu de-synchronizes subtitles after ads on my PC so I can't get screenshots that way.  and in the next shot...  The story takes place in Chicago, so I'd assume somebody involved has a connection to Second City or the Harold Raimis Film School. Bonus: There's a Groundhog Day poster in the Restaurant.
