Behind the Scenes Awesomeness: Ghostbusters Edition


Checking out these behind the scenes pics of the making of the Ghostbusters franchise shows us just how much work went into making fantasy films during the pre-CGI era. I mean, most of the ghosts and creatures we see on these pics below would all be done with computer generated images today. I'm old school, I liked it better when they really put all this work into films. It made them even more special to me. So anyhows, some priceless picks here, like Bill Murray yawning between takes, Vigo sweeping the floor between takes and Dan Aykroyd posing next to Gozer! Fun stuff, also, this post goes in memory of Harod Ramis, the first Ghostbuster to cross to the other side. Ramis not only brought the character of Egon Spengler to life, he was one of the brains behind the creation of the Ghostbusters themselves! He will be sorely missed, R.I.P. Harold Ramis!

  2. Slimer was always the star of these films! He even got his own spin off cartoon show, his own comic book series....I'm surprised he didnt get his own film!
