Well, since I left a “We’re ready to believe you” G.B. quote on the Bigfoot post it follows that I thank you Chris for posting the G.B. trailer and share my favorite quote “You’re the best one in your row.” I say that to my comedy friends after they do stand-up or improv/sketch and so far only one’s gotten it and laughed… other time they just gave me the wtf look. :/

Yeah Chris, I too was floored by the movie- love it- so many other quotes and things from that movie, one of my favorites. Then there’s STRIPES. Bill Murray is one of my idols actually.

Holy God – remember when trailers didn’t feel like they were ripping through your system like Ipecac?

Re: Ernie Hudson. Apparently he wasn’t notified that the Ghostbusters video game panel was cancelled and showed up to Comic-con for nothing. He hung out and talked to folks in line, but that’s gotta sting.

The only time I’ve seen a movie without seeing any trailers or hype was Atonement. I was so happy to not know where the story was going. Score one for movie-going, minus one for literacy.

The people who cut trailers often ruin the best jokes. It’s a sad thing. Avoid the Redband trailer for Tropic Thunder if you don’t want to see a great bit coming.

One of the greatest films EVER. And that is right, Ernie Hudson SHOULD of been mentioned in the trailer! He is a effin Ghostbuster also!

I just wish Hollywood mad movies like this again. I worshiped Bill Murray and Harold Ramis (and Steve Martin and Chevy Chase) when I was a kid. It was a golden era. I honestly feel like “Ghostbusters” was the end of something special. From “Animal House” and “The Jerk” to “Meatballs” and “Stripes,” it was a great time for well-acted comedies. “Ghostbusters” makes a nice bookend to when Hollywood was different. I sound old…….

ray finkle’s mom is in the movie!!! (that’s from MY favorite movie)
and she didn’t say “ghost bustahs…”

DISCLAIMER: the following statement is by no means a racist statement. the author is simply addressing a comedic situation

and you can’t even SEE ernie hudson in the dark scenes due to old film technology and bad lighting… winston!!!!!!!!!

I’m always a little disturbed that Ernie Hudson is treated as a non-entity. Sure he’s not a marquee star like the rest of the them, but by gosh he’s a ghostbuster too!
