Squashing Machine posted:It also contrasts with the "what the hell are you doing?" lady and the three's sort of embarrassed apology. That's funny. You almost killed someone because you're a bunch of overgrown kids and your response is completely inadequate. In GB2016, she would've been screaming and running around and the proton beam would've chased her around the corridor, and the entire time Wiig and McCarthy would be shouting TURN IT OFF!!! WHO TAUGHT YOU HOW TO SHOOT, ALEXANDER HAMILTON???? The original Ghostbusters almost kill that maid in the hotel and apologize profusely. Kristen Wiig straight up murders Bill Murray's character and it's played for laughs.

mmmmalo posted:What haunts the baby then, before he even gets to Vigo? The movie is openly about how New York City is overflowing with bad vibes exacerbated by the slime river. The opening scene's progression of unhappy New Yorker's culminates in Dana's baby almost committing suicide via traffic. Later, the baby walks out the window and stands on the edge of the balcony, invoking a classic image of suicide before the museum guys swoops in and carries him off to Vigo. It seems consistent with the movie's themes to say the baby is just 'haunted' by misery, like the rest of New York. Doesn't Dana push the stroller through a puddle of ooze, covering the wheels in the stuff? Pretty sure that's how the stroller gets possessed and maybe Viggo has some kind of psychic link to all of the ooze and just keyed on the kid when the stroller came in contact with the ooze.

Since the gunner’s seat is in the movie, they should just go all out and have Ecto-2 in there too.

There should be a ghostbusters movie where the ghostbusters are the villains and the protagonists are a family trying to keep the ghosts of their grandparents from getting thrown into ghost jail. The protagonists also find out the ghostbusters company is purposefully awakening ghosts and capturing them to keep their profit margins up.

The_Doctor posted:Ghost Smashers from the comics would make for a good antagonist group for a movie. That's the equivalent of making Tony Stark or Bruce Wayne a good guy because other billionaires are evil. The point is that they're all evil. Do the guys in the original movie ever care about who Slimer was before he died? Do they give a poo poo if his family is against ghost incarceration? And what if Slimer was a lone vagrant, does him being unhoused and unloved make him any less of a person who deserves equal rights? The original movie revels in its libertarianism so you're not meant to ask these questions while Pete and Egon hose the snooty hotel concierge (not even the owner, just another worker) and tweak the mean EPA bully because he's worried about little things like a nuclear reactor in the middle of NYC that's running off of the city grid.

He gaslights her about what happened in her kitchen and only goes to “inspect” her place to try and insert himself into her life. If Ray or Egon would’ve went, they may have actually found something and got her out of the apartment.

They should've made his ghost look like slimer. (I have not seen the new movie and do not know what his ghost looks like, but I feel confident nobody refers to him as an ugly little spud)
