While at the showing of Army of Darkness last night at the Phoenixville Colonial, I learned that they're playing Ghostbusters at 2:00pm on Saturday, October 21st. This theater is AWESOME. (They also are playing Beetlejuice on the 17th. It's listed under "Young Audiences". Hah!)

CyanideRush posted:Philadelphia area goons, Ghostbusters is playing at the Colonial Theatre in Phoenixville on 10/24! I think I mentioned that earlier in the thread, actually, but it's well worth bringing up again. =) The Colonial, featured in The Blob, is a fantastic theater. Ghostbusters sadly is playing at two in the afternoon after I do a 5p-3a shift, but I'm planning on coffee taking care of any residual fatigue. I think they're playing Gremlins soon, also.

SocketWrench posted:I watched this movie again last night. I swear I dunno if I was in a weird mood or not, but when Egon switches on Ray's pack in the elevator and starts backing into the corner I laughed so hard I woke my neighbors in the next apartment The looks on their faces and how they cover their crotches with their hands just seals it, on top of the deadpan delivery of the lines. It really is a perfect little moment in the film.

I don't mind some audience participation, but I had to ask the guy behind me at a theater showing of Ghostbusters to knock it off. He was saying the lines before the characters. That was loving annoying.

On the TV overdub that I'm sure is still on VHS at my parent's house somewhere, the exchange goes something like: Dr Ray Stantz: Everything was fine with our system until the power grid was shut off by Wally Wick here. Walter Peck: They caused an explosion! Mayor: Is this true? Dr. Peter Venkman: Yes it's true. [pause] Dr. Peter Venkman: This man is some type of rodent, I don't know which. Which in its own way cracks me up too because it's so absurd.

It sounds like Hellboy meets Ghostbusters. And yet all I can muster is, "Meh."

Well, it's not a modern NY state plate. But it also doesn't seem to match older plates either, so it probably doesn't help either way. Edit: hurt derf, was looking at the back plate and missed the banner at the top. Modern plate, within last five years or so. tetrapyloctomy fucked around with this message at 15:53 on Jul 8, 2015 |

CelticPredator posted:Um yes it is. The main girl gets raped by a tree. I came into the thread to say that if the movie is good, the team who made the trailer needs to be fired. Your cut completely solidifies that opinion -- now that's a movie I'd want to see.

Waffles Inc. posted:As presented on the screen, Venkman is an absurd rear end in a top hat to him over completely reasonable demands, and it's because he's from the government. Wow, Ghostbusters really does capture the core essence of modern Libertarians. In all seriousness, it is funny how Venkman remains one of "the good guys" to the audience despite the fact that he is, in fact, a manipulative sociopath. Time to rewatch! What's the best high-def edition, or are they all terrible?

I'm torn. I think the cast had great chemistry and I think a lot of the visual design was fantastic -- I love the look of the new equipment. It still somehow felt like the highest-budgeted SNL skit ever, with no serious elements, completely ridiculous characters, winking nods crammed in everywhere, and jokes flung around just hoping some of them would land.. A lot of them DID land: I thought the movie was really funny, but it looked and felt like a Ghostbusters parody instead of an actual licensed Ghostbusters movie. I guess I just like my comedies played a bit straighter. I feel like the cast brought a lot to the film, but could have done so much more if everyone and everything wasn't so campy all the time.

CelticPredator posted:The first joke in the movie is the Tour Guide being a huge racist. Or saying racist things. I can't remember honestly. The anti-Irish fence joke. I thought it was funny but in a very 30 Rock/Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt kind of a way. Very Tina Fey. Again, I was torn; I found a lot of the gags and jokes funny, but lacking balance.

Rupert Buttermilk posted:Here's a thing I noticed way back when I was a kid (probably 6-7), and was reminded of it today in conversation. The ending theme (as well as the music throughout the credits) have a slapback delay/echo, and I have no idea why, nor do I have any idea why they haven't fixed it in all the years that the film has existed and has been remastered. When I was a kid I always assumed it was our home-taped VHS copy, well, sucking.

Aleph Null posted:Now they just get widescreen TVs anyway and would complain about vertical black bars if they tried to watch old 4:3 television. Oh, god, stretching 4:3 content to hide the vertical bars is the worst. I don't know what's worse, the uniform widening or the one that preserves the ratio in the middle and stretches the sides progressively more the farther from center, like the screen is being wrapped around a cylinder. HUNDU THE BEAST GOD posted:I'm amazed someone under the age of 60 lasted more than 5 minutes with that poo poo. My wife prefers it and I will never understand why. And I didn't mind HFR in the Hobbit trilogy (especially with CGI or properly-lit scenes.)
