Listen all I’m saying is that if I was working with these guys how in the hell would you expect me to be able to focus when they look like that

The Ghostbusters reacting to seeing a bug/spider in their house, more than likely:

Ray: knows the exact species and thinks it’s cool

Egon: straight up about to experiment on this innocent insect

Peter: screams like a little bitch and probably makes Dana kill it

Winston: puts it in a cup and takes it outside

BONUS

Janine: knows it kills flies, and she hates flies so she leaves it alone cause lord knows baby girl has bigger problems

Dana: waits for Peter to stop freaking out and lets the spider out a window

Walter Peck: also freaks out but manages to keep from screaming like a little girl, probably gets that neurotic look on his face like we saw in the mayor’s office

No one:

Walter Peck watching the Ghostbusters get the key to the city and actually getting appreciation at the end of GB2, probably:

Night of the Creeps but in my version the Ghostbusters have to come stop the creeps from taking over people’s bodies and all four of these men are given flamethrowers which is a questionable decision but also the only solution, WATCH the chaos ensue

I watched the audio commentary of the Ghostbusters and here’s a few things I’ve found out which I think, is really cool, or rather things that stuck out to me

1: How much Dan was involved with the makings of the props;

Like HE DESIGNED??? THE PROTON PACKS AND THE GHOST DUMPING MACHINE IN DETAIL??? my man’s talented, AND when the prop people were like installing them or making them, he made sure they were good and proper, he oversaw everything, there’s alot about that man I love, this just makes my heart swell.

2: They only had one Egon Spengler suit;

So, when the whole roof exploded because peck turned off the machine, water, debris and all sorts was flying everywhere, and the director made a statement in the commentary, where he said “I told them to be careful, we only had one Egon suit, I asked them what was in that stuff”, which I find rather interesting, you’d think they’d have more grey suits but, Harold only had that specific one, sure he’s seen wearing others but that specific grey suit with the grey sweater vest, there was only one.

3: THE BUDGET;

So, I know, the film was gonna be expensive, but 300 MILLION?? ARE YOU?!? JOKING?! that’s?! Wow, but then again, you had to pay the actors, the crew, the special effects ect, but I genuinely didn’t think The Ghostbusters budget was that much, but good on them, the film(s) are magnificent to this day.

4: They spent three weeks writing the script in Dan’s bunker/garage/place;

Apparently, Harold, Dan, and few other writers/directors spent three weeks writing because they had only 1 year to write, cast, film and complete to release in the June the following year, so Dan bless him, gave them all a place to work, apparently according to Harold/and the director they said and I quote “Dan always kept the fridge full, he was a very good host”, but also lemme add that Dan made the majority of the script/scene play, he made a 40page in depth script and sent it to a few people (Including the director), they kept most of his stuff in however they added the university bits in to show the viewers how they became the Ghostbusters, not just hopping into it straight away, I DIDN’T REALISE HOW INVOLVED DAN WAS, WHAT A ICON.

5: They picked up on my favourite bit which not many people noticed;

This is just a lil personal one for me but, back to when they were turning the machine off, Egon was fighting with peck, trying to get him not to turn it off, Peter comes in, and does the same, peck gets very angry and shouts “Just turn the damn thing off” or something like that. So Egon surrenders, walks towards Peter and does a lil mime of things exploding and he mouths “boom”, GENUINELY that’s my favourite part, and Harold/the director/the writer all quoted it and laughed when it appeared on screen and that made me very happy.

6: Apparently the ray/ghost 18+ scene was supposed to be longer;

I’m… I’m very glad it wasn’t longer than that, but also it wasn’t supposed to be a bj scene, the ghost wasn’t supposed to be doing that//hovering over ray like that?? But alas, it happened… I’m glad it’s one of the only sexual scenes in the films.

There’s many more I want to comment on, so I will, but here’s a few memorable ones.

I recommend giving it a watch/listen, hearing Harold and the director talk about how things are done, and just, them enjoying it as much as we do is great.

The commentary was filmed 15 years after the first film as a side note

I have a confession… I didn’t know it was Ghostbusters day….ffs… But tbh THE FIRST TIME I WATCHED GHOSTBUSTERS WAS 6 MONTHS AGO! but!!! HAPPY GHOSTBUSTERS DAY!!!… I made GIFs again :)))

They’ve become a big part of my life, especially right now, and I adore them

Can we agree that Ray in that green Polo Shirt…is superior… Like, he’s VERY pretty in that green Polo Shirt, LOOK!!

Him in a red shirt from Ghostbusters 2 comes in second place, because wow
