there was a film called Ghostbusters of which I'm dimly aware, not the one with ladies, the first one. What are the incidents of the film you are aware of?

Would it be pedantic to note that the supernatural creature is specifically a succubus?

I demand a spin-off in which we witness the incalculable chain of events that led to unknown character(s) actually paying these guys to remove a surprise bj giving ghost.

Just another instance of the '80s requirement of casting Playmates to fulfill their L.A. actress data sheet goals. Kymberly Herrin in this case. How else would directors and actors get to attend grotto parties?

"The idea behind the scene was to give Dan a love interest — a woman who's been dead for a hundred years," explained Ramis. "But the (original, uncut) scene was too long and it was in the wrong place in the film."

That is certainly one way of putting it. But let's let Aykroyd have the final word on this one, since it was his darling:

"I don't miss anything that we didn't use," he says. "The ghost in the fort —the seduction ghost— in paranormal research that's a common thing, ghosts doing sexual things to people. I have a friend who had three women visit him in a haunted house in Louisiana, and it was one of the greatest nights of his life. But in under two hours, you obviously can't have everything."

But in under two hours, you obviously can't have everything, so sometimes you just have to settle for a ghost blowie and move on.

Many have speculated that the entirety of honey i shrunk the ghosts is a narrative played out in rick moranis mind the night before he was cast in ghostbusters, but that this is all incorporated into his method while turning into the claymation hound

There's a bukakke monster that explodes all over everyone at the end. I have no idea how this was rated PG.

Interesting quote about not missing what they didn't use because some of the gags in '2' were un-used gags from 1. The fur coat coming alive (and others?), maybe that's why i hated 2; it was crap even Dan didn't want in the first.

I seem to remember a lot of the main dude stalking and sexually harassing the female lead.

Also general confusion about what these ghosts were supposed to be the ghosts of.

A very good point that has always bugged me. Now if they were just like Supernaturalbeingbusters, I could let it slide, but you would assume that the methods employed for busting ghosts would differ from the approach for demons, ifrits, boggarts, etc. You surely can't just randomly bust every magical thing with your lightning wand and trap it in a ghost tank.

Also in what world, after you've been transformed into a demon dog, can someone just chip away at your crusty demon dog outer shell and pull your unaffected human form out like they're pulling the prize out of a gahdamn Kinder Egg? Tighten it up, fellas.

I also vaguely remember that Sigourney Weaver hires Creepy Dude to get rid of the ghost in her apartment, and he's like, "tell ya what, I'll do my job and get rid of this ghost if you'll go out with me," and somehow this eventually works on her even though he does not, iirc, actually do his job or get rid of her ghost.

If I were to hazard a guess, I'd imagine that Ghostbusters is about people that bludgeon ghosts with like giant hammers and cricket bats. And I mean what, are these ghosts the shitty dead relatives of the busters? Like why are they so inclined toward ghost violence?
