Ghostbusters: Afterlife - Trailer #1 Review

 By Paul Rudoff on Dec. 10, 2019 at 11:55 PM , Categories: Ghostbusters: Afterlife
Ghostbusters: Afterlife

As an early Christmas/Hanukkah/Kwanzaa/Festivus present, the first trailer for the new Ghostbusters movie came out yesterday, which is now officially known as Ghostbusters: Afterlife most everywhere and Ghostbusters: Legacy in Germany. I'm going to share my thoughts on the trailer in a sort-of running commentary form, though I won't go over every single shot. BE FOREWARNED: THERE ARE SOME MINOR PLOT SPOILERS IF YOU KEEP READING.

The Movies That Made Us: Ghostbusters (Netflix Episode) Review

 By Paul Rudoff on Dec. 4, 2019 at 11:50 PM , Categories: Ghostbusters 1, Reviews & Merch, Cast & Crew
Image

On Friday, November 29, 2019, Netflix premiered their new series The Movies That Made Us. Contrary to the name, the series does NOT chronicle the fans whose lives have been influenced ("made") by these motion pictures. You know, like a guy who has run a Ghostbusters fansite for over 23 years. No, the series is more akin to AMC's Backstory, in which each 50-ish minute episode details the making of a film with new interviews with the people who made it. So, a better name for the series would have been The Movies That We Made, but then that wouldn't match the sister series, The Toys That Made Us. Anyway, the first season consists of four episodes, each devoted to one of these films: Dirty Dancing (episode 1), Home Alone (episode 2), Ghostbusters (episode 3), and Die Hard (episode 4). Obviously, you know the one that I will be reviewing today. Nobody puts Slimer in a ghost trap...

Ghostbusters: The Video Game - Ghostbusters 3 Movie DVD & VHS Review

 By Paul Rudoff on Nov. 19, 2019 at 10:53 PM , Categories: Home Video, Games
Image

Ten years ago, Ghostbusters: The Video Game was released and it gave us the third movie that we had been waiting 20 years for. Even Dan Aykroyd considered it to be "essentially the third movie". However, unlike most "movies", it was never released in a home video format, even though other video games of the era were (see: Lego Batman 2). That left the fans to fill that gap with several cutdowns of the game's story uploaded to YouTube. The longest one was already released on an unofficial/bootleg Blu-ray. Now, a shorter one has gotten a physical release...with a twist!

Halloween Treats

This year's Halloween Treat is simple collection of Ghostbusters videos that I have uploaded to my accounts on Critical Commons and Internet Archive (there's also old stuff on YouTube and DailyMotion you can check out). There is a lot of Ghostbusters (2016) stuff because I recorded all of that stuff back in 2016 and have had it sitting on my hard drive for three years until I finally had time to do something with it.

Yesterday saw the re-release of 2009's Ghostbusters: The Video Game on the Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch. (For digital purchase links, and physical copies in other countries, check out the official site.) Used copies of the original release are still readily available for the Xbox 360 (plays on the Xbox One), PlayStation 3, PC (plays on modern PCs), PC Digital Download (plays on modern PCs), Wii, PlayStation 2, PSP, and Nintendo DS. (The WII/PS2/PSP version features stylized graphics and different gameplay [but the same story] than the other releases, including the new "Remastered" re-release. The Nintendo DS is a completely different game altogether.)

In honor of the "Remastered" re-release, I present a review of the unofficial/bootleg Ghostbusters: The Video Game Movie Blu-ray.

Eleven years ago, Time Life released The Real Ghostbusters: Complete Collection. Since it's been out-of-print for almost half as long, I figured that it was finally time to add the exclusive content from it to Spook Central.
