Facing hard times, The Ghostbusters are called back into action when the city’s mood dips deep into anger.

Definitely not as good as Ghostbusters – (1984 movie), but an adequate film nonetheless.

• Properly titled Ghostbusters II.

1. Ghostbusters – (1984 movie)
2. Ghostbusters 2 – (1989 movie)
3. Return of the Ghostbusters – (2007 movie) is a great fan movie
4. Ghostbusters – (2016 movie) should be ignored; it’s garbage.

5. Ghostbusters꞉ Afterlife – (2021 movie)

• I would normally just call Dr. Janosz Poha (played by Peter MacNicol) a complete faggot. But I should instead say that the movie gives with an intentionally jarring over-exaggerated accent that portrayed him as a complete faggot.
• Who the fuck names their kid Oscar?
• Slimer looks like complete shit now.
• The music sucks here.
• (Your Love Keeps Lifting Me) Higher and Higher by Jackie Wilson.
• We get to see Sigourney in her bra. How.. disappointing.
• Joe Namath of the New York Jets (no. 12).
• Why does the entire diaper-jersey thing exist? In New York City there will be all-night grocery stories to buy diapers.
• “He was poisoned, stabbed, shot, hung, stretched, disembowled, drawn and quartered.” .. reminds me of the myths of Grigori Rasputin. The still-living head thing reminds me of another story of a man who was still mouthing the lord’s prayer after being beheaded.
• I now realise that Daina is the damsel in distress. Again.
• Venkman explaining his “grades of laundry” is something Daina would have learned when they were together..
• In the tunnels, Egon is using his antennae doodad but it’s middle isn’t lighting and swirling like it did before.
• Why wouldn’t they have their proton packs when going exploring?
• So how did the city repair the wiring damage and seal up the hole in the street” without .. noticing the massive air shaft?
• What moron would drop a line into the river and have it attached to them?
• Oh god Sigourney is ugly.
• So, do you want to play Boggle or Super Mario Bros.?
• On Our Own, by Bobby Brown.
• The asshole in a position of power and the imprisonment are recycled from the first movie.
• “No, that’s Rita Hayworth. She was married to Citizen Kane while they were doing this thing.”
• Why would Daina call for Lewis? He’s a retard. What’s her name is the smart one.
• Daina should have been happily kicking over those candles while picking up her baby.
• After being wrested from Daina’s hands, Oscar is floating over to Vigor, showing a Winnie-the-Pooh stitched into his jumper.
• The fur coat that comes to life is Mink Fur (Mink) and reminds me of a Chimera.
• At the pier, seeing the Titanic arrive, is Cheech Marin.
• That ignorant shit Ben Stein is in this movie. Ugh.
• The music overshadows the movie.
• “There’s always room for Jell-O” is a blatant advertisement.
• It’s at this point that I became intensely bored of the movie.

• The Statue of Liberty.

  • “She’s French, you know that.”
• The statue’s “pilot controls” are the NES Advantage.
• The statue’s “Higher and Higher” version is, I’m told, a version by Howard Huntsberry.
• .. and the statue punches a hole down to the tunnels, plummeting into the river of slime.
• When the people outside are singing, the statue of liberty is laying down.
• It ends with the original theme song, which is a damned good choice.. except it goes back to Bobby Brown. Ugh.

• The ending has unique footage, which to me was quite rare for this era.

~2006-02-22 ∞

• 1:19:06 — Winnie-the-Pooh can be seen on the baby’s jumper.

• 1:19:24 — Cannibal Girls – (1973 movie)

  • Andrea Martin and Eugene Levy are listed on the theatre’s sign.
• 1:20:34 — That’s Cheech Marin on the right.

• 1:27:25 — That’s looks like some kind of very old Nintendo Entertainment System joystick.
