A divisive sequel, but still an eighties classic.

Oh, it's inferior to the first one but I like it.
This September this movie and I will be the same age...

Ernie Hudson got shafted.
Bill Murray was sleepwalking through the entire runtime (but is still great).
A big lack of actual ghost busting.
I still like the movie though.

"Named after a hot dog, you poor man!"
I think the best metaphor for this movie was that my older brother got to get the Batman shirt that summer and I had to settle for the Ghostbusters 2 shirt.

It comes NOWHERE close to the original, but having the four of them (or three...f***ing Winston getting shafted AGAIN!) bounce off one another will never get tired. So yeah, it's still a credible sequel.

I actually prefer it to the original movie. That probably has a lot to do with how it's a lot like The Real Ghostbusters cartoon which I saw first.

Winston didn't get shafted. His scene in the tunnel is probably one of the most memorable parts of the film.

I still think Winston looks weird without his moustache.

Love the movie but I've always hated the obvious reuse of Winston's yell in the tunnel when he falls into the slime.

This movie has two legit scary moments for me, both with Janosz, first when his eyes light up outside Dana's apartment, and of course when he appears as a ghost nanny. I also love the Titanic scene, and Vigo was an excellent villain. There's also the tunnel scene I mentioned and that awesome visual of the Statue of Liberty up to her nose in water.

I love this movie...
I actually think I quote this more often than the first one... mainly Janosz lines...
Also I love the Scolari brother designs

"Is It Ghosbusters 2?" was the bane of all late night call-in UK 2000 Quiz shows that had to put up with trolling.

Winston didn't get shafted. His scene in the tunnel is probably one of the most memorable parts of the film. Ernie Hudson is very bittersweet about Ghostbusters. 75% of Winston's role in the first movie was cut literally the day before shooting started (Winston was present from page 8 of the original script, and from page 68 in the final script). In the second movie, he felt like he was just there because he was in the first movie, not because he had any type of role to play.
