Who you gonna call?
Ghostbusters!
The all Ivan Reitman weekend concludes with arguably his best movie, Ghostbusters.
Once again, Harold Ramis is behind the scenes as one of the writers on this project, and he teams onscreen with Bill Murray and Dan Aykroyd as the unlikely trio of paranormal investigators, Dr. Venkman, Stantz and Spengler.
Of course, it's hard to be taken seriously as ghost hunters if there are no ghosts, but luckily for these guys, New York is suddenly swimming in them.
Cue the addition of Sigourney Weaver and Rick Moranis to lend their talents to the movie. Suddenly, it's not just some random ghosts that the boys are trying to catch, but they need to stop a full-fledged invasion from beyond!
Will they succeed? Probably...since there was a Ghostbusters II...
However, better than that was the cartoon. It was pretty awesome. : )
This movie is just plain fun from start to finish. It's a great one to break the kids on to start showing them "scary movies". They call them "baby steps" for a reason. Gotta start small!
I have to admit, I am curious to see what they will end up doing with the rumored 3rd installment of the franchise. The Next Generation? Hmmm. If they get the right cast, it can probably work. But going off the original, you've got to have a great story and quality cast, otherwise...
Meh.
