There is very little time or point in an explanation. To be blunt, the audio came from a timeline and dimension that has collapsed at a quantum level, rendering it null and void in terms of existence. Operational time in the dimensional continuum where the beings that created the audio collapsed in on itself, rendering all of their civilization, including technology, null and void. Timelines across the entire
continuum are collapsing and changing. The destruction has a nexus that centers on Cinema PsyOps.

And welcome to the 483rd consecutive week of Cinema Psyops. I'm your host, Cort, the guy that is super stoked for the choice that we're covering this week from my co host, Matt Ghostbuster. No, that's who you call the Ghostbusters.
That's right, man. Fucking into it, dude.
from the soundtrack which, spoiler alert, we're doing Ghostbusters this week. Next week is Ghostbusters 2 and I found the soundtracks for both of them and I was pulling out specific songs from specific scenes.
Yeah.
the scenes that really worked.
1, man. In between. Their scenes there. In between songs are awesome.
Yeah. There's a couple of them where they cut out some things. Like, for instance, the song Magic is going to be one of the songs that's going to be played.
in. It's awesome.
song. So I'm like halfway tempted to only use the back half of the song because that's the part that I. Everybody knows from that cool scene.
Right.
the front half of the song, which is a lot more poppy and doesn't have that cool. Like, I believe it's magic creeping after it. want to really waste the time with the front end palm. Really. I think we should just fucking get into it because we're going to be talking Ghostbusters quite a bit. I think we're going to go quite a bit.
clips, so we should probably get going.
And some of my clips are like twice, if not three times as long as some of yours for Ghostbusters too. So don't feel bad. Yeah, yeah. I may be the only person on the planet that deeply loves Ghostbusters too, I think.
I like it, but. I mean, I like other ones better, but yeah, it's still good.
That and they were your picks. And there's no way I'm taking Ghostbusters from you. That's just not happening. No. I may want to cause you pain, but not that kind of pain. All right, so let's go ahead and take the break here. We'll stop fucking about. We're going to play the Legion Patreon ad and on the pirate radio edit immediate following. That is the bus boys with cleaning up the town.
By now you have undoubtedly realized that terrifying elements have shifted into place. I wish I knew the words to offer you some comfort in these dark realizations. If my calculations are correct, then Kourt and Matt will be talking about Ghostbusters for the show. This will intrude upon Kourt will put on a brave face and pretend while doing the show that he is not slowly dying inside and covering up his fragile mental state with
what seems like endless tattoo appointments. Matt will obviously say whatever thing that comes in his mind the second it does until the day he is no longer alive. This is where many timelines change and diverge while things seem to get infinitely darker. You will begin to question just how much more exceedingly stupid your reality can become when this happens. Take comfort in knowing that the stupider a timeline is, the longer it
seems to persist in existing. We haven't found concrete evidence that can survive peer review on this, but there is enough observed evidence to suggest that the more unstable and downright ludicrous a reality is malleable enough to become, the more flexibility it is able to
offer in better bouncing back to a normalized state. On a personal note, if this were some sort of video feed, instead of two hideous fucking chuds hiding behind radio show voices, we would have done a demonstration of this reality snap using rubber bands where one is older and more rigid and snaps, but the other is super flexible and holds up. We have found that this visual aid helps sell the idea and tends to make you not question bad ideas and writing. It's like
punching a hole through a piece of paper to talk about wormholes. It is classic lazy story telling. Sorry I sometimes ramble as I I have spent far too much time alone processing this weird shit and it is starting to get to me. The point is that there is more hope in living through the dumbest timelines possible than what it feels like while stuck in them. No story is as outrageous and stupid as your reality, so at least you know there is no author deciding what
will happen. Logically speaking, no self respecting author would try to write a story as dumb as your reality turns out to be. So there must not be anyone behind the keys on this one and you can be sure you are a real person. Like I said earlier, I have been processing this kind of weird shit alone for too long. Try not to question your existence too much and enjoy the dim witted dipshits talking about Ghostbusters.
in the in between scenes and I think I Deleted. Right there with cleaning up the time. Well, why don't we go to the actual review of Ghostbusters?
started. All right, so we start. We open up at the New York Library. And a woman's going through things. We see books start moving and shit. And then all of a sudden, the cards start flipping out, freaking out. She's running. You see this bright purple light in her face and wind, and she screams. And then we get the Ghostbusters logo. This leads to Dr. Peter Veikman running a study where he's having a girl and a guy guess
on some cards what what they think is on there. And the guy's guessing wrong and he buzzes him and the girl's guessing wrong and he's not buzzing her. Then he gets out of. The guy actually guesses right and he still says he's wrong. Buzzes him. The guy gets pissed and walks out. This leads to our very first clip.
your ability is going to provoke in some people. Do you think I have it, Dr. Venkman? You're no fluke, Jennifer. This is it. This is definitely it. See those UV lenses come in for the video camera. And that blank tape, I need it. The one you erased yesterday. Will you excuse me for a second? Right in the middle of something. Ray. I need a little more time with this subject. Could you come back in an hour, hour and a half? Peter.
At 1:40pm at the main branch of the New York Public Library on Fifth Avenue, 10 people witnessed a free floating, full torso, vaporous apparition. It blew books off shelves from 20ft away and scared the socks off some poor librarian. I'm very excited. I'm very pleased. I want you to get right down there, check it out and get back to me. No, Peter, you're coming with us on this one. Spengler went down there. He took PKE valances. Went right off the top of the scale. Buried the
needle. We're close on this one. I can feel it. I can feel it. We're very, very close. I have to go now, Jennifer, but I'd like to work with you some more. Perhaps you could come back this evening. Say it. 8:00. I was just going to say 8:00. You are a legitimate phenomenon. As a friend, I have to tell you, you've finally gone around the bend on this ghost business. You guys been running your ass off meeting and greeting every schizo in the Five bros. Who says he has a paranormal experience?
What have you seen? Of course you forget, Peter. I was present at an undersea, unexplained mass sponge migration. Ray, the sponge is migrated about a foot and a half.
Oh, you're here. Yeah. very big. There's definitely something here.
of the time you tried to drill a hole through your head. Remember that?
That would have worked if you hadn't stopped me.
Are you the men from the university? Yes. I'm Dr. Venkman. Dr. Stantz. Egon. Thank you for coming. I hope we can clear this up quickly and quietly. Let's not rush things. We don't even know what you have yet.
I don't remember seeing any legs, but it definitely had arms because it reached out for me.
this thing. Alice, I'm gonna ask you a couple of standard questions, okay? Have you or any member of your family ever been diagnosed schizophrenic, mentally incompetent?
Jerome.
Uh, are you habitually using drugs, stimulants, alcohol? Are you, Alice, Menstruating. Right. Know. What has that got to do with it? Back off, man. I'm a scientist.
Come on.
you want to bet that when he asked her if she was menstruating, it was because he was about to hit on her?
think it's just because he's, you know, he's Peter Vman. He's. He's an. He's an.
at all?
I mean, there are a lot of people who don't eat well, these.
Yeah, a lot of characters. But Venkman in particular, if he's really greasy. I mean, he was always supposed to be this greasy, but they were supposed to also be trying to make it charming. And I don't find it charming. He just feels really sleazy to me now.
kind of find it charming. So, anyhow, they go downstairs and they find the slime and they're collected it. And that's kind of a funny little gag. With Bill Murray, it's always funny. Venkman, being the cool guy, is the one who has to deal with the slime the most in this movie, I.
Think he's the most useless scientist. So they always put him on the collection duties. Like, I think Egon is condescending him when he does that.
So then they find the book stacked. You know, he's just kind of fucking around. Peter is. Because he doesn't believe in any of this stuff.
like this, right?
behind him. And then he looks at Ray and goes. It's never happened to you before? First time with the bookshelf falls. Anyway, as I go through the PKE meters going crazy, they come about and they see a full bodied apparition. Which leads to our next clip.
And it's real. So what do we do? Could you come over here and talk to me for a second, please? Would you just come over here for a second, please? Right over here. Come here, Francine. Come here. What are we doing? I don't know. What do you think? Stop that. We've gotta make contact. One of us should actually try to speak to it.
Good idea.
Where are you from? Originally. All right. Okay. The usual stuff isn't working. Okay, I have a plan. I know exactly what to do. Now stay close. Stay close. I know. Do exactly as I said. Say, get ready. Ready.
You see it?
What?
Get her. That was your whole plan. Get her. We're scientific. I. I just got over excited. I need. But, but wasn't it incredible? I mean, we actually touched the etheric plane. You know what this could mean at the university. Yeah. Gonna be bigger than a microchip, Ray. I'm very excited.
According to these new readings, I think we have an excellent chance of actually catching a ghost and holding it indefinitely.
rate is constant for all ectoplasmic entities, we could really bust some heads. In a spiritual sense, of course. Bangs, you serious about this? Catching your goal?
I'm always serious, Egan.
some of the things I said about you. You've earned it. The possibilities are limitless. Hey, Dean Yeager. I trust you're moving us to better quarters on campus. No, you are being moved off campus. The Board of Regents has decided to terminate your grant. You ought to vacate these premises immediately. This is preposterous. I demand an explanation. Fine. This university Will no longer continue any funding of any kind for your group's activities. But the kids love us.
Dr. Venkman, we believe that the purpose of science is to serve mankind. You, however, seem to regard science as some kind of dodge or hustle. Your theories are the worst kind of popular tripe. Your methods are sloppy and your conclusions are highly questioned. You are a poor scientist, Dr. Finger. I see. And you have no place in this department or in this university. This is a major disgrace. Forget MIT or Stanford now.
They wouldn't touch us with a 10 meter cattle prod. You're always so concerned about your reputation. Einstein did his best stuff when he was working as a patent clerk. You know how much a patent clerk earns? No. Personally, I like the university. They gave us money and facilities we didn't have to produce. You've never been out of college. You don't know what it's like out there. I've worked in the private sector. They expect results. For whatever reasons, Ray, call it faith,
call it Locke, call it karma. I believe that everything happens for a reason. I believe that we were destined to get thrown out of this dump. For what purpose? To go into business for ourselves. This ecto containment system that Spengler and I have in mind is going to require a load of bread to capitalize. Where are we going to get the money? I don't know. I don't know. Never going to regret this, Ray. My parents left me that house.
I was born there. You're not going to lose the house. Everybody has three mortgages nowadays. But at 19%. You didn't even bargain with the guy.
five years comes to 95,000.
relax? We are on the threshold of establishing the indispensable defense science of the next decade. Professional paranormal investigations and eliminations. The franchise rights alone will make us rich beyond our wildest dreams. There's office space, sleeping quarters and showers.
kitchen on the top level.
upper opportunity, that's all. What do you think, Egon?
There's serious metal fatigue in all the load bearing members. The wiring is substandard. It's completely inadequate for our power needs. And the neighborhood is like a demilitarized zone.
does this pole still work? Wow, this place is great. When can we move in? You gotta try this pole. I'm gonna get my stuff. Hey, we should stay here tonight. Sleep Here, you know, to try it out. I think we'll take it. Good.
Dan Aykroyd plays his character in this Ray stance is very childlike and full of wonder and just wants to know as much as he can. And the more terrifying and awful something is, the more he is fascinated and just so into learning more about it that he can be.
I mean.
Like, this is something that Reitman did, and it's a formula he came up with after this film or because of this film. And there's always a character that's the heart. There's always the character that's the head, and then there's the character that's always like the impulse control issues in Reitman's movies. Right. And that's what these three guys are. Raise the
Heart. Egon is obviously the head, and Peter Venkman is obviously the lack of impulse control type character, or the one that just blurts out whatever's on his mind.
Yeah. Peter is obviously the seller, like the salesman, and he'll be able to find out what's going on with the company.
Yes, that's him. Yeah, he's the suave.
he's suave. Yeah. Raise the Heart. He's what the Ghostbusters embody. And then, yeah, Egon's is the brain of the operation, and Winston, he's me. He's in it for a paycheck.
Winston is both of us. That's one of the conversations that we've always had. And when we get to Winston, I want to really actually kind of talk about that a little bit more. I mean, we're always going to be getting ahead of the game because we love this movie so much. We're just going to talk about it like little kids. Right? Sorry. I just needed to point that out because it's very apparent in that clip where Ray, like, their roles are very apparent, you know?
exactly. Yeah. I always laugh because I always think that's part of the reason why they make Peter talk to the ghost is he is the ladies man.
the suave talker and also.
to. Because I love. He's like, where are you from originally? Then he go back, he goes, all right, guys, usual stuff ain't working.
Yeah, I Also, really, like, the one thing that I like about this, too, is the fact that Peter has a complete inability to take the temperature of the room. Like, when he should be terrified, his body reacts the exact opposite way. And he gets more cocky and full of, like, confidence, which makes him, like, perfect to be the front man for a lot of their shit. And we gotta stop doing this. We're going too deep here.
too deep. Because it's like, how they all handle fear is, like, pretty much just, oh, fuck it, whatever. Let's just go.
But they all have their own ways of, like, supplanting it. Ray's very childlike. He gets super excited.
figure it out.
gets scared, he still tries to rationalize and get his shit together. But the thing that's the best is Bill Murray's character has nothing but his bravado. So he basically is like a D and D bard who is always rolling a nat20 every time he interacts with anything, and he starts bullshitting.
That is exactly right. That's the best way to put it. He's a Bo hard on the team, and he constantly rolls Nat 20s.
Yeah, absolutely. mouth. Because he. come up against to the point where they're off their game because they're just so pissed at him being such a petulant child. At them.
he's fucking. He never stops. You know, he's always fucking. And he. Like, it could be the most dire situation. And you would think he's like, no, I got this handled. And that pisses everyone off.
Yeah.
the more mouthy he gets. And it's awesome.
Always, always. And he always gets mouthy at them or at his own teammates.
move on. Let's go.
All right. So then we cut to the Central park west beautiful apartment of Miss Dana Barrett. And as she's walking in, we get the incomparable Rick Moranis in our next clip.
Oh, are you sick?
some more vitamins and stuff. I was just exercising. I taped 20 Minute Workout on my machine and played it back at High speed, so it only took 10 minutes. I got a great workout. Good. You want to come in for a mineral water?
Excuse me.
of low sodium mineral water and other nutritious foods in the house. But you already know that. party for all my clients. My fourth anniversary as an accountant, you know, and even though you do your own tax return, which you shouldn't do, I'd like you to stop by, being that you're my neighbor and all.
Louis. I'll really try to stop by.
your TV on so loud when you go out to creep down the hall, phone the manager. yeah. You know what I did? I climbed on the ledge and tried to disconnect the camera, but I couldn't get in. So you know what I did? I turned up my TV real loud, too. So everyone would think that both our TV said something wrong with the. Okay, so I'll see you later, huh? I'll give you a call. I'm gonna have a shower.
feel that I am Rick Moranis in situations. Like I just feel like I'm. I make everyone feel as awkward as Rick Moranis makes us feel when he's on screen in this movie.
he's constantly getting locked out of his apartment.
comedy that he does in this, it's Rick Moranis returning to, like, SCTV time with this.
Especially when he gets. And you'll hear it because I clipped it when he gets possess. That is so him from sctv.
Yeah. to see here. Just on full display at its best. Glory again. We got to stop. We got to move on.
her apartment in the Ghostbusters commercials on. She goes to her kitchen and the eggs start popping on their own and.
Frying on the counter.
And then she hears a noise coming from her fridge, opens it up. There we see the demon dogs, and a lot of them say zool. And she closes the frid fridge and abject terror. Because, you know, one does do that. When that happens, those of us that.
nature are used to seeing things like that in our fridge and can move on after we've selected the item we were looking for.
gotta get done with it, you know?
to watching our grandmother in miniature form. That's somewhat of a zombie crawling up our leg with a knife, clutch between her teeth, screaming, why don't you eat my cookies?
schedule time for another tattoo. Yeah. After that, we cut back to the new Ghostbusters headquarters being set up. And that is our next clip.
too subtle, Marty? You don't think people are going to drive down and not see the sign? You can't park that air. Everybody can relax. I found the car. Need some suspension work and shocks and brakes, brake pads, lining, steering box, transmission, rear end. How much? Only 4800. Maybe new rings, also mufflers, a little wiring. Janine, any calls?
No. No, Dr. Venkman.
Type something. Well, you were paying for this stuff. Don't stare at me. You got the bug eyes. Janine. Sorry about the bug eyes thing. I'll be in my office.
can take. I bet you like to read a lot too.
Print is dead.
I read a lot myself. Some people think I'm too intellectual but I think it's a fabulous way to spend your spare time. I also play racquetball. Do you have any hobbies?
molds and fungus.
Hello? Oh, excuse me. Is this. This is the Ghost.
it is. Can I help you?
appointment. I'd like to talk to someone, please.
I'm Peter Venkman. May I help you?
Well, I don't know. What I have to say may sound a little unusual.
day out around this place. Come into my office, Miss.
And this voice said, zool. And then I slammed the refrigerator door and I left. That was two days ago, and I. I haven't been back to my apartment.
What do you think it was?
be here.
truth. At least she thinks she is.
I'm telling The truth. Who would make up a story like that?
Some are people who just want attention. Others, just nutballs who come in off the street. You know what it could be? Past life experience intruding on present time.
That wouldn't rule out clairvoyance or telepathic contact, either.
I'm sorry, I don't believe in any of those things.
right. I don't either. But there are some things we do, standard procedures in a case like this, which often bring us results. Well, I could go to hall of Records and check out the structural details in the building. Maybe the building itself has a history of psychic turbulence.
Right. Spate's catalog, Tobin Spirit Guide.
I'll take Ms. Barrett back to her apartment and check her out. I'll go check out Ms. Barrett's apartment, okay?
Okay.
Okay.
If something's gonna happen here, I want it to happen to me first.
It's the closet.
I hate this. I like to torture them. That's right, boys, it's Dr. Venkman.
A lot of space.
Yes. doing? I see. That's the bedroom. But nothing ever happened in there. You know, you don't act like a scientist.
pretty stiff. That's the kitchen, huh? Dana, are these the eggs? Yes.
their shells and started to cook on the counter. I start to hear that awful noise coming from the refrigerator. Dr. Beckman, you've come all this way. Would you like to check the refrigerator?
the fridge. Good call. Oh, my God. Look at all the junk food. No. Actually, look.
and there was a building or something with flames coming out of it, and there were creatures writhing around, and they were growling and snarling, and there were flames, and I heard a voice say, zul. It was right here.
reading. There's not. I think so. But I'm sure there are no animals in there.
Well, that's great. Either I have a Monster in my kitchen or I'm completely crazy?
I don't think you're crazy. Oh, good.
me feel so much better.
Let me tell you something about myself. I come home from work to my place, and all I have is my work. There's nothing else in my life. I meet you and I say, my God, there's someone with the same problem I have. for broken. I am madly in love with you. And then she threw me out of her life. She thought I was a creep. She thought I was a geek. And she probably wasn't the first.
You are so odd.
No, I've got it. I'll prove myself to you. Here. I'll solve your little problem, okay? And then you'll say, pete Venkman's a guy who can get things done.
Right.
interested in knowing what makes me tick. me after I'm gone. No kiss?
a film noir for a minute. And, like. Yeah, that little bit of just, like, blathering insanity. Somehow he rolls a charming Nat20 once again on her. And, like, she start. She just starts to like this guy who's, like, clearly got some kind of mental disability or issue in it. You know, Something's not right with this guy. Either he is chemically imbalanced or he just is emotionally imbalanced that he acts like this all the time.
the shit out of her.
bard who is rolling a nat 20 at everything.
exactly. And it's just. You can see how it get mad. People get mad. Because you also get mad, man, because you're not that fresh. You can't get out of these situations.
Yeah. It's the kind of slickness you wish you had.
gag is Bill Murray gets kicked out. He starts leaving. And as we see Rick Moranis comes out, sees him, gets uncomfortable, and is again locked out of his home.
Again, I identify with Rick Moranis the older I get.
I. I think we all do. Yeah. So then we cut to the fellas. They're eating dinner that night. And that is our next clip to.
some petty cash. I should take her out to dinner. We don't wanna lose her. Uh, this magnificent feast here represents the last of the petty cash. Okay, slow down, chew your food.
Hello, Ghostbusters. Yes, of course they're serious. You do? You have. No kidding. Uh huh. Well just, just give me the address. Yes, of course. Oh, they'll be totally discreet. Thank you.
We got one.
The call iconic. We got one.
This magn. This magnificent feast represents the last of the petty cash is a line that I quoted to my co workers every time I went and grabbed fast food instead of just carrying my lunch in at an old job of mine.
whenever everybody having usually though it's always for me is when I'm eating Chinese. Like the wife wants Chinese. So gets up, we're all eating it. I'm like, this magnificent feast represents the last of the penny cash. Or I'll bring up the. Like the wife would be like, well I don't know if eat that was in the budget, but we're doing that. Then she'll be eating. They'll go, slow down, chew your food.
Yeah, the saying it when you're getting Chinese food absolutely makes sense. But I always said it just because anytime I was picking up fast food out, I was like, you know, because it's not. It was an unusual thing. I tried not to do that as much as possible to try and save money at that job.
chew your food.
restaurant. That was expensive.
So all right, great scene where they're taking off of the car. You hear the icon iconic siren of Ecto 1. The song is what you played earlier and it kicks ass. They get to the hotel and that is our next clip.
Hey everybody see Ghost? Thank you for coming so quickly. The guests are starting to ask questions and I'm running out of excuses. Has it happened before? Well, most of the original staff knows about the 12th floor, the disturbances, I mean. Yeah, but it's been quiet for years until two weeks ago. It was never ever this bad though.
anyone?
don't like us to even talk about it. of this quietly tonight. Yes, sir. Don't worry, we handle this kind of thing all the time. What are you supposed to be, some kind of a cosmonaut? No, we're exterminators. Somebody saw a cockroach up on 12. That's got to be some cockroach. Bite your head off, man. Going up. I'll take the next one. You know, it's just occurred to me we really haven't had a completely successful test of this equipment. No sense worrying about it now. Why worry?
Each of us is wearing an unlicensed nuclear accelerator on his back. Yep. Let's get ready. Switch me on. What the hell are you doing?
Sorry.
Successful test. I guess so. I think we better split up. that way.
end of that clip. The. We better split up. Yeah, we can do more damage that way. I say that all the time.
So they do split up and they're all looking around. And Ray with cigarette in his mouth. See, Slimer for the first time. And Ray doesn't move. That I had perfected back when I was bad at smoking cigarettes, which is this dry cigarette hanging out your mouth for a bit when you see something terrible or you're like, what the fuck are you talking. That's a move I would pull if I was talking to somebody. I had cigarette in my mouth and what they were saying was absolutely asinine or just fucking
weird. And I just let it hang there for a bit. They go. They look at me, they go, is that bad? I go, yeah, no, you're fine. Don't worry about it.
cigarette shtick down. And that was one of your best props. And I'm sad that you lost it, to be honest. longer, but I'm also sad that you lost one of your greatest prop tricks that you've had.
Where I could accentuate how he's feeling at the time.
trick thing for cigarettes was pretty great.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So anyway, he tries to hold it, but still Slimer gets away. Then we see Peter comes to plug Slimer and he calls Ray and Ray goes. You know, he saw it because he's an ugly little sucker that he get the. I think he can hear you, Ray. Which is another line I have used all the time.
center that we used to work at.
Ray? This guy's a fucking idiot. I think he can hear you, Ray. Bakeman. Then they get the call that Bengler has found him in the ballroom. They head down to the ballroom and that is our next clip.
wait out here, we'll take care of everything. There it is. On the ceiling. That's the one that got me. Right, boys. Ready? Throw it. I did that. I did that. That's my fault. It's okay. The table broke the fall.
streams.
thing. What do you mean, bad?
as you know it stopping instantaneously and every molecule in your body exploding at the speed of light.
Okay. All right. Important safety tip. Thanks, Egon. All right, Ray, take the left. Egon, take the right. Okay, Ray, give me one. Hiding outside. Nice shooting, Tex. I assure you, Mrs. Van Halen, there is no problem with the room. It will be ready promptly at time as soon as your guests are with us. The last throw took something out of him, but he's going to move. I need some. I need some room to put the trap down. Give me some room. Excuse me.
We've got to get to in the clear. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. I've always wanted to do this. And the flowers are still standing. Okay, on my go. Single spangler. I want a confinement stream from you. Okay? Go. Okay, hold him up there. He's going to move. Hold him up. Go.
Working, Ray.
the stream. Maybe not. You'll never slime a guy with a positron collider, huh? Thanks, man. Shorten your stream. I don't want my face burned off. All right, I'm opening that trap now. Don't look directly into the trap.
I looked at the trap, Ray.
close the trap. Get ready. I'm closing it now.
It's in there.
Well, that wasn't such a chore, now, was it? Mr. Smith, quickly. I want that door open now. Don, stand over there. We came, we saw, we kicked its ass. Did you see it? What is it? We got it. Is it? Will there be any more of them? Sir, what you had there was what we refer to as a focused non terminal repeating phantasm. Or a Class 5 full roaming vapor. Real nasty one too. Now let's talk seriously. Now, for the entrapment, we're gonna have to ask you for four big ones.
$4,000 for that. But we are having a special this week on proton charging and storage of the beast. And that's only going to come to $1,000, fortunately. $5,000. I had no idea to be so much. I won't pay it. Well, that's all right. We can just put it right back in there. We certainly can, Dr. Venkman. No. All right.
Anything.
can help you again. Coming through. One class five zero we make. Good morning, I'm Roger Grimsby. Today the entire Eastern seaboard is alive.
With talk of incidents of paranormal activity.
and related supernatural occurrences.
state area.
Heck, my ground grandma used to spin yarns about a spectral locomotive that would rocket past the farm where she grew up. But now, as if some unforeseen.
particle reversing destruction situation into a pee joke of don't cross the streams.
don't cross could be bad.
and intelligently planned out story plot point wrapped around a piece joke that has ever existed. Like pure and simple. Like not even Mel Brooks has gotten to this level that they got here with Ghostbusters and Don't cross the streams.
pee joke in the entire movie was based around it.
Right. That's amazing. I don't think anyone will ever try that again.
Dan Aykroyd Rate in a fucking movie together. That's what that is.
Yeah, yeah. That's legacy of Doug Kenny living on through that type of joke right there.
Oh man. Yeah. So then we get. This is an awesome film also in that it has two montages. So this is the first montage of the film in which the guys are busted ghosts. You have several different legitimate media outlets reporting on it. Like Larry King, remember Omni magazine? I always forget about it, but it was huge in the 80s.
subscription to it and I used to read. Casey, but I never had it myself.
right, same. I never had it. But Casey, Casey Kasem talks about him. You know, everything's. You know, they're getting busier and busier as everything goes around. Then we cut to it towards the end of the montage. The man, Winston Zedmore, walking in for a job interview. And that leads to our next clip.
astral projections, mental telepathy, ESP, clairvoyance, spirit photography, telekinetic movement, full trance mediums, the Loch Ness monster and the theory of Atlanta, Atlantis?
in it, I'll believe anything you say. I gotta get some sleep. I'm dying. You don't look good. I don't? Well, you look better. You didn't used to look like this.
Can you all play?
She paid with Visa. Oh, great. Two more free repeaters.
He hear about the job?
Pete Venkman. Congratulations. Help me, please. Welcome aboard.
where they get these guest conductors. I mean, someone should tell them. It's not going to do much good to screaming us in Germany.
think that the man is competent to conduct the major symphony orchestra.
Could you wait here a minute?
Sure.
That was a wonderful rehearsal. your row.
Most people can't hear me with the whole orchestra playing.
have to take this abuse from you. I got hundreds of people dying to abuse me. I know.
for me on my case. The stiff happens to be one of the finest musicians in the world. Do you have some information for me, please?
give it to you in private. I found the name Zul for you. Well, the name Zul refers to a demigod worshiped around 6000 BC by the. What's that word? Hittites, Mespan, Mesopotamians and the Sumerians.
Zul was the minion of Gozer. What's Gozer?
Gozer was very big in Samaria. I'm working on that. If we could get together Thursday night. I'm thinking 9ish, you know, we could exchange information.
I can't. See you Thursday. I'm. I'm. I'm busy.
Ms. Barrett, you seem to think there Is something. Something wrong up here that says in your mind he enjoys taking his evenings off and spending it with his clients? No, I'm making a special exception in your case because I respect you. It's corny, but I respect you as an artist. And as a dresser, too. This is a magnificent coordination you have going here today.
I'll see you Thursday.
So who the hell is that?
friend.
get to meet you, sir. And I'm glad you're feeling much better. You're still very pale, though, little son. Well, what does he do?
scientist.
This is where we store all the vapors and entities and slimers that we trap. Very simple, really. Loaded trap here. Open. Unlock the system. Insert the trap. Release. Close. Lock the system. Set your entry grid. Neutronize your field. And the light is green. Trap is clean. Ghost is incarcerated here in our custom made storage facility.
you. He's waiting in your office. I don't know. All I do know is that I've been working two weeks without a break and you promised me you'd hire more.
someone with your qualifications would have no trouble finding a top flight job in either the food service or housekeeping industries. Are you going to answer that?
Ghostbusters.
I represent the Environmental Protection Agency, the third district. Great. How's it going down there? Are you Peter? Vicky? Yes. I'm Dr. Venkman. Exactly what are you a doctor of, Mr. Venkman? Well, I have PhDs in parapsychology and psychology. I see. And now you catch ghosts. Yeah, you could say that. And how many ghosts have you caught, Mr. Fink? I'm not at liberty to say. And where do you put these ghosts once you catch them? Into a
storage facility. And would this storage facility be located on these premises? Yes. And may I see this storage facility? No. And why not, Mr. Venkman? Because you did not use the magic word. What is the magic word, Mr. Venkman? Please. May I please see the storage facility? Mr. Venkat, why do you want to see the storage facility? Well, because I'm curious. I want to know more about what you do
here. Frankly, there have been a lot of wild stories in the media and we Want to assess any possible environmental impact from your operation. For instance, the presence of noxious, possibly hazardous waste chemicals in your basement. Now, you either show me what is down there, or I come back with a court order. You go get a court order and I'll sue your ass for wrongful process. You can have it your way, Mr. Venkman.
crowded in there. And all my recent data points to something big on the horizon.
What do you mean, the big?
this Twinkie represents the normal amount of psychokinetic energy in the New York area. According to this morning's sample, it would be a Twinkie 35ft long, weighing approximately 600 pounds.
That's a big Twinkie. We could be on the verge of a fourfold cross rip, a PKE surge of incredible, even dangerous, proportions. We just had a visit from the Environmental Protection Agency. How's the grid holding up? What about the Twinkie?
was so long. But that was so amazing. That's like the heart of this film was that clip.
all right, we have Walter Peck, played by that guy. Actor. For me, I got. What's his name? Thank you. Who's just the keen in almost a ton of 1980s films.
him and the guy that played Superman's nemesis in Superman 2 from his high school years, that, like, was all grown up, the shitty security guard. Like, he only ever played one good character. And that was in Willow.
Yeah. It's just. It's just weird.
like the swarmy villain of the 80s, though. You are correct.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's just. It's. It's insane. That and the guy who played Kent and Real Geniuses and the Adventure party.
Genius. Yeah. All right, let's move on.
after all that, we cut back to Dana Perry's apartment and we see the statue is. Statues of dogs are starting to crumble a little bit. Danny gets up to her floor and R. Rick Moranis, you know, is like, hey, you going to come to the party? All that. She's like, no, I don't think so. So he gets kind of sad and he, you know, because she's on a date. And then he's like, all right, he can come along. And then again, Rick Moranis is locked out of his apartment.
him trying to get into the party where he's shouting, let me in.
He does what? He's trying to get away from the dog. At that restaurant. Restaurant. Anyway, Danny gets in her apartment, gets a call from her mom, talks a little bit. And of course, her mom's being a mom. And then she gets off the phone exasperated, and then arms come out of her couch and just manhandle her. I want to know what key grip. Got to be the arm that's pretty much tearing her boob on this one, because that guy had a great day at work. He just got to. Hey, man. What do
you. What? Hey, grip, come over here. Yeah, yeah. Put on this arm, and you're gonna do some weird. Okay, can I just hide in the couc.
her like that, I found it weirdly erotic because that one was grabbing at her tit, and I was like, dude, I want to be demon hands.
to God, you see a boob come out real quick. But that's. That's the other here door there. That. Actually, when I was a kid, that was the only scene in Ghostbusters that scared me.
yet. But when we get there, I'll talk about it.
other one. When we get there, I'll talk about it. But anyway, so she gets pulled in this closet where you see the dog person, and then, you know, everything's kind of insane. You cut back to the top of the roof, and now both statues are broken in pieces. Cut back to Rick Moranis's party, and it's such a funny way of how he goes around the room. I had to include it as our next clip.
Do you have any Excedrin or extra Strength Tylenol?
Gee, I think all I got is acetic acid.
Generic.
300 of a name brand. That makes good financial sense. Good advice. Hey, this is real smoked salmon from nova Scotia, Canada. 24.95 a pound. It only cost me 1412 after tax, though. I'm giving this whole thing as a promotional expense. That's why I invited clients instead of friends. You having a good time, Mark? How you doing? Why don't you have some of the brie? It's at room temperature. You think it's too warm in here for the Brie.
And don't leave yet. And listen, maybe if we start dancing, other people will join in. Oh, don't move. I just gotta get the door. Glad you could come. How you doing? Give me your coats. Everybody, this is Ted and Annette Fleming. Ted has a small carpet cleaning business and receivership. Annette's drawing a salary from a deferred bonus from two years ago. They got 50, 15,000 left on the house at 8%. So they're. Okay. So does anybody want to play partisan? Okay, who brought the dog?
God, Rick Moranis is the fucking king in that. And I'm serious. Like, however erudite and full of knowledge and eloquent I may seem on air. Mackinac test. If I am in a large group of people, I am very much as nervous and info dumping like a weirdo like Rick Moranis does.
He tells everyone, like, they're all the customers, private businesses. And then like, also. So I invited clients instead of friends. Shit. You're just like, God damn, that's weird.
Yeah. He throws a party. He invites clients so that he can make it a tax deductible thing, because he's that kind of an accountant. But then he also is giving away the financials without giving away the financials. You know, like, he always tells people their Social Security numbers of each other, but they're okay.
who brought the dog?
the economy was in the 80s. Ted and Annette, I think he said their names were. Yeah, they're doing okay, if you really listen to. In the 80s. They're doing really, really well. She's drawing a salary from a deferred bonus, which means she did really good earlier in her life and is pretty much retired early. Congratulation. Now we can move on.
Ted and Annette, if they're still alive to this day. Good on you guys. You guys are having a good time.
probably had a college fund because they sound like they were doing well.
Probably. I mean, hey, listen, it was. It was good stuff for getting that there. Anyway, so I love the blonde who just. She. She's actually it. I think she's into Rick Moranis in this.
he wanted to dance with her. Yeah, I think, like, I think so, too. Yeah. I think she was mildly interested in him and he.
I think she was there for a reason. That she was looking to get some accounting tail out of him. And he's so oblivious that he didn't know. And his dancing was just so. Hey, you're not having fun. Let's have fun. Because he can't see it. It's like, Jesus, man.
attention to her. You're right. I never saw that before. Because I'm just as blind as Rick Moranis in this part. Yeah. You know what? I think you should start writing a newsletter. I would subscribe to it.
Here's what's. Here's what's actually happening by that. He runs out. He's like, you know, he's like, I'm gonna bring this up in the next 10 of meetings. There supposed to be dogs in the apartment. And the dog chases after him. He gets to the restaurant. He's trying to get in dog fights. And I think I have a milk Bone. I just love. Everyone calls these things dogs with demons. But all right. Everyone's called it a do.
Obviously, he gets possessed. So then Bill Murray gets to Dana's apartment, or Peter Venkman gets to Dana's apartment, knocks on the door, and that leads to our next clip.
That's a different look for you, isn't it? Not that I know of.
Are you the Key Master?
I'm a friend of his. He told me to meet him here. I didn't get your name.
the Gatekeeper.
What are we doing today, Zul? Gozer, huh? Are we still going out? You know, you could pick up the place if you're expecting someone. Is this a trick question? I guess the roses worked, huh? We never talk anymore. I'm making a rule never to get involved with possessed people. Actually, it's more of a guideline than a rule. You know, I can.
I want you inside me.
Go ahead. No, I can't. Sounds like you got at least two people in there already. Might be a little crowded. Come on. Why don't you just quit trying to upset and disturb Dr. Beckman and just relax? Lie down there. Relax. Put your hands on your chest. What? I'd really like to do is talk to Dana. I want to talk to Dana. Dana, it's Peter.
Zul.
Come on. I want to talk to Dana. Dana, just relax. Come on. Dana. Dana. Can I talk to Dana?
no Dana, only Z.
singing voice you must have. Now I'm going to count to three, Zullie. And if I don't get to talk to Dana, there's going to be some real trouble in this apartment, I think. One.
Two.
a half. Please come down.
for the show, Bev ended up watching it with me. And during this scene she ends up actually kind of surprised, surprising me because she says, go ahead. No, I shouldn't or something along that lines. It wasn't quite the right quote, but I knew what she meant. And then I said the go ahead. No, I can't. You know, like whatever. Yeah, whatever. It actually was that was in the like right as he was saying I said it and
I got it right. And then she shocked the shit out of me and ended up quoting at the same time when he says, sounds like there's two people in there already or I don't think there's enough room. Sounds like there's two people. She says that whole quote, that immediate line following it, and I was like, damn.
an effective jump scare.
the bed and like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then she. She yells at you. She does the rawr. You know, you're just like, jesus Christ. It's one of the few jump scares you actually get into this. It was supposed to be a comedy flick, you know.
state that possessed Sigourney Weaver floating on the ceiling became a thing for me and I was like kind of thank you movie even as a young kid. Which I think really talks a lot about the stuff that I'm into sexually.
I'm not mad at you for that. Yes. No, I get it.
Possessed could steal my soul. I would be the full on key master. Which would really disappoint the demon and probably get me killed. But we're.
you're. This is. This is horseshit. But the castle didn't open up now. So then we cut to the key master is running around trying to find the gate. Gatekeeper. He finds a horse who he thinks is the gatekeeper. Starts going all through the gibberish. And the guy goes, hey, you talked to me for the ride. And he starts screaming at the end of the world. And the guy has the best line, just a throwaway line. Goes, what an. I don't know why, every time in
that movie, it always makes me laugh when we got. He's yelling about the apocalypse and the guy just looks over, he goes, what an.
It's so fitting though, right? totally.
the Ghostbusters. And that is all. Our next clip.
or picking up?
You a Ghostbuster? Yes.
don't know what to do with him. To put him in the lockup. And I know you guys are into.
so I figured we'd check with you. All right.
Gatekeeper?
You are so kind to take care of that man. Are you a real humanitarian.
What did you say your name was?
Gozer.
West. Do you want some coffee, Mr. Tully?
Vince, you said before you were waiting for a sign. What sign are you waiting for?
come in one of the pre chosen forms. During the rectification of the Voldrani, the Traveler came as a large amount moving toward. Then during the third reconciliation of the last of the McKetric supplicants, they chose a new forum for him, that of a giant slur. Many shubs and zuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the slur that day. I can tell you.
There's something very strange about that man. Listen, I'm usually very psychic and I have a terrible feeling that something awful's gonna happen to you. I'm afraid you're gonna die.
I'll get it. Hello?
Egon, it's Peter. of Gozer. It seems the GOES has been putting some moves on my would be girlfriend. Kingdom. I just whacked her up with about 300cc's of Thorazine. She's going to take a little nap now, but she Says she's the gatekeeper. Is that make any sense to you?
I just met the Key Master. He's here with me now.
wonderful. We have to get these two together.
would be extraordinarily dangerous.
I'll be there in a little while. Thank you. Bad news, honey. I gotta go to work. Hey, we stay here in bed until I get back. Hey, Ray, do you believe in God? Never met him. Yeah, well, I do. And I love Jesus's style, you know? This roof cap is made of a magnesium tungsten alloy. What are you so involved with? These are the blueprints for the structural iron work in Dana Barrett's apartment building. And they're very, very strange. Do you remember something in the Bible about the last days
when the dead would rise from the grave? I remember Revelation 7:12. And I looked as he opened the sixth seal. And behold, there was a great earthquake. And the sun became as black as sackcloth.
as blood.
Judgment day, Judge. For every ancient religion has its own myth about the end of the world. Ray, has it ever occurred to you that maybe the reason we've been so busy lately is because the dead have been rising from the grave? How about a little music?
Okay, so one of the scenes that has always creeped me out and still to this day is the conversation they have during the highway when they start quoting from the Book of Revelations and realize that they may actually be seeing signs that were talked about on what the end of the world would look like. And it freaks them out to the point where they have to listen to music. That always freaked me out as a kid.
me, too. That's another one that gets me. Yeah, it's just like, you know, it's a little. You know, that's. That's spine tingling, Chili, about how that goes.
Yeah, because it just really shows the gravity of this comedy where it's like, yeah, these guys are having a good time and we're all laughing about this, but this is very dire. This is.
still be end of the world type stuff. Yeah. Where we all die a terrible death. So, yeah. Anyway, we cut to the next morning and Miss Walter Peck walks in with a police officer and electrician. And that is our next clip.
do you think you're going?
with the police officer.
come in here without a warrant or a riddle or something.
Commerce Order. Seizure of premises and Chattels. Ban on the use of public utilities for non licensed waste handlers. And a federal entry and inspection order.
Vince, there's one more test I'd like to perform.
I tried to stop them. He says they have a warrant.
Excuse me.
I'm warning you. Turning off these machines would be extremely hazardous.
what's hazardous. You're facing federal prosecution for at least a half a dozen environmental violations. Now, either you shut off these beams or we shut them up for you.
Try to understand. This is a high voltage laser containment system. Simply turning it off would be like dropping a bomb in the city.
me. I'm not grotesquely stupid like the people you built. At ease, officer. I'm Peter Venkman. I think there's just been a slight misunderstanding and I want to cooperate in any way that I can. Forget it, Venkman. You had your chance to cooperate, but you thought it'd be more fun to insult me when. Now it is my turn, wise ass. You shut that thing down and we are not going to be held responsible for whatever happened. No, we won't be held responsible. Don't shut it off. I'm warning you.
I've never seen anything like this before. I don't. I'm not interested in your opinion. Just shut it off. My friend, don't be a jerk. Step aside. If he does that again, you can shoot him. You do your job, pencil neck. Don't tell me how to do mine. You. Officer, shut it off.
I just love that cop was super annoyed. He had to be there. Like, this is not why I got the policing was to turn this off. Yeah, the cop turns it off. Or the cop, the electrician turns it off. With everything starts l goes, oh. And bad stuff happens. The. The containment unit explodes. Everything's getting out. The Key master's like, this is a side. And I love Janine. He goes, it's a sign. All right, we're going out of business. They all are kind of
just going through it. And then the. The. The Key master kind of gets away. The gun's like, where's the Key master? They're all going to go look for him. And that's when Walter Peck stops him, wants him arrested. He goes, they caused this. And that's when he got. Goes, your mother.
The most emotional I've seen out of Egon.
to some. Another scary part in the second montage of the mov is for the ghosts. And then this is all the ghosts releasing back into the city. And the one thing that always scared me was the one in the taxi cab. Yep.
poltergeist terrifying whenever he shows up.
And you're just like, jesus Christ. But it also served the guy get the car right. Let's not. Dle. It's like, you know what, man? sound?
the skeleton. That reanimated thing always reminded me of the COVID of Creep show and terrified me. And it also reminded me of some of the skeleton skeletons and like, poltergeist and like, that kind of thing. like, terrified me. And what's weird is when I would watch this, the thing that would always get stuck in the back of my mind whenever I was trying to go to sleep later that night is the image of that fucking skeleton starting up the taxicab.
That was horrific. That was a good job, whoever did the shit for that. It was good.
We can move on. Sorry.
And the gatekeeper wakes up. She sees all the ghosts coming and they blow up her apartment. Then we cut to the guys. They are in jail. And that is our next clip.
guard. Look, I want to make a phone call. Yeah, just work with these guys, man.
The structure of this roof cap is exactly like the kind of telemetry tracker that NASA uses to identify dead pulsars in deep space.
Cold, riveted girders with cores of pure selenium. Everybody getting this so far? So what? I guess they just don't make them like they used to, huh? No. Nobody ever made them like this. I mean, the architect was either a certified genius or an authentic wacko. Ray, for a moment, pretend that I don't know anything about metallurgy engineering or physics and just tell me what the hell is going on. You never
studied. The whole building is a huge superconductive antenna that was designed and built expressly for the purpose of pulling in and concentrating spiritual turbulence. Your girlfriend lives in the corner penthouse of spook central. She's not my girlfriend. I find her interesting because she's a client and because she sleeps above her covers. 4ft above her covers. She barks. She drools. She claws.
It's not the girl, Peter. It's the building. Something terrible is about to enter our world, and this building is obviously the door. The architect's name was Ivo Shandor. I found it in Tobin's Spirit Guide. He was also a doctor. Performed a lot of unnecessary surgery. And then in 1920, he started a secret, secret society.
guess. Ghost are worshippers, right? No studying.
that society was too sick to survive. And he wasn't alone. He had close to a thousand followers when he died. They conducted rituals up on the roof, bizarre rituals intended to bring about the end of the world. And now it looks like it may actually happen.
sake. Whoa. Somebody's coming. We have to get out of here. We've got to find a judge or something. Hey, wait a minute. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. Hold it. Are we actually going to go before a federal judge and say that some moldy Babylonian God is going to drop in on Central park west and start tearing up the city? No offense, but I got to get my own lawyer. Okay. Ghostbusters. The mayor wants to see you guys. The whole
island's going crazy. Let's go. I got a split. The mayor wants to rap with me about some things.
were going to, because the clip was rather long, surprisingly, on us, and we'll see how that affects the editing. But the main reason that Winston is my favorite Ghostbuster and the one I identify with the most is, as you said, he is the Everyman. And the whole, like, if there's a steady paycheck in it, you know, I'll believe anything you say. But the thing I love the most is the line where they go through all of this stuff, and he's like, this is the defense that you guys
want to go with? And his response is, no offense, but I gotta get my own lawyer is the most me thing I could ever think of saying in that same situation. So same. Like, that's why I'm always like, yeah, fucking Winston's my man.
winston has it all, right. Very end, when they come up with the last plan, he goes, his job's definitely not worth another five a year.
That's everything.
be Venkman. When I was an adult. I realized I'm just Winston.
Yeah. Yeah. See, like, I identify with Winston. And it was the same where I was a kid. I always wanted to be more like Venkman. But as I get older, I think I'm more like Ray, you know? Yeah. But I very much approach life like Winston. I'm very mercenary about life. Very much so. And if you want to include the later movies that end up happening, where Winston comes back. His very mercenary style makes him very successful in life. And I like that so much. So I'm going to include.
because of.
Yeah. All right. We could move on. Of course, I had to just give a little Winston love.
then we cut to the key. Master finds the gatekeeper, and they get to go into town. Then we cut to City hall, the mayor's office. And that's our next clip. We're blocking the bridges, the roads.
are here, Mr. Mayor. The Ghostbusters. Okay, the Ghostbusters. Hey, where's this pack? I am Walter Peck, sir, and I'm prepared to make a full report. These men are consummate snowball artists. They use sense and nerve gases to induce hallucinations. People think they're seeing ghosts, and they call these bozos who conveniently show up to deal with the problem with a fake electric. Everything was fine with our system until the power grid was shut off by dickless
here. They caused an explosion. Is this true? Yes, it's true. This man has no dick. Jesus. Well, that's what I heard. City hall. Now what am I gonna do here, John? What is this? All I know is that was no light show we saw this morning. I've seen every form of combustion known to man but this. The walls in the 53rd Precinct were bleeding. How do you explain that? Good afternoon, gentlemen. Oh, your Eminence. How are you, Lenny? You're looking good, Mike.
We're in a real fix here. What do you think I should do? Lenny, officially, the church will not take any position on the religious implications of these phenomena. Personally, Lenny, I think. I think it's a sign from God. But don't quote me on that. No, I think that's a smart move, Mike. Well, I'm not going to call a press conference and tell everyone to start praying. Oh. I'm Winston Zeddamore, your Honor. Look, I've only been with the company for a couple of weeks. But I gotta
tell you, these things are real. Since I joined these men, I have seen shit that'll turn you white. Well, you believe, Mr. Pecker. My name is Peck. Or you could accept the fact that this city is headed for a disaster of biblical proportion. What do you mean, biblical? What he means is Old Testament, Mr. Mayor. Real wrath of God type stuff. Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies. Rivers and seas boiling.
Earthquakes. Volcanoes.
Dogs and cats living together. Mass hysteria. Enough. I get the point. What if you're wrong? If I'm wrong, nothing happens. We go to jail peacefully, quietly. We'll enjoy it. But if I'm right and we can stop this thing, Lenny, you will have saved the lives of millions of registered voters. I don't believe you're seriously considering listening to these men. Get him out of here.
Bye.
you a nice fruit basket. I'm going to miss him. We got work to do now. What do you need from me?
That was a great choice for a clip. There's everything that needs to be in this, like, review had to be in that clip. Yeah, absolutely.
yeah, yeah. I mean, come on. It's the dickless comment. It's everything.
Yeah. The cat, dog, living dig together, all of that is just great.
Yeah. If we would see going, I have seen shit that will turn you white.
yeah, I get what he's saying here. look, I don't have time to tell you all of the shit that I've seen, but just believe me when I tell you that I have seen some shit with these people. And this shit is real.
It's. It's bad. Yeah.
amazing.
all the red lights. Hey, come on, let's want some red lights? They get to the apartment, a great earthquake happens. It almost swallows them up. But they survive it. They get out and then they go.
out as a kid, too, was the earthquake and them getting dumped in there. It always terrified me.
Let's get rough. Let's do it. Yeah. And then it shows them walking up all the stairs because the elevators are out. And it goes right from the we're badasses to again, funniness. And they go, what floor are we on we're the Teens. All right, tell me we get to 20, because I'm going to throw up.
I've used that one when I've had to take the stairs plenty of times.
Yep. Then we cut to Dana and the Key Master. Well, I'm sorry. The Gatekeeper and the Key Master, they have finished doing the deed. They're now taking their places. The fellas get up to Dana's room. Everything's smashed. And they go. They see some stairs to go up. And Peter's getting ready to go up first. And like, big lightning strike happens. And he goes, all right, everyone, go ahead.
Go ahead. Go ahead. Pushes everyone ahead. They see the two lightning strikes, and they both turn into the Demon Dogs. And then before we know it, Gozer shows up. And that is our next clip. I thought Gozer was a man.
It's whatever it wants to be.
us, right? Go get her, Ray. Gozer the Gozarian. Good evening. As a duly designated representative of the city, city, county and state of New York, I order you to cease any and all supernatural activity and return forthwith to your place of origin or to the nearest convenient parallel dimension. That ought to do it. Thanks very much. Ray, are you a God? No. Then, Ray, when someone asks you if.
you say yes. All right.
Got your stick? Beat him up. Make them hard. Ready? Let's just this prehistoric how we do things downtown. Simple little mink and she. Aim for the flat top one so hard, we neutronized it. You know what that means? A complete particle reversal. We had the tools. We had talent. It's Miller time.
this looks extraordinarily bad.
What?
Traveler has come.
What do you mean, choose? We don't understand.
Choose.
of the destructor. Oh, I get it. I get it. Oh, very cute. Whatever we think of. If we think of J. Edgar Hoover, J. Edgar Hoover will appear and destroy us. Okay? So empty your hands. Empty your hands. Don't think of anything. We've only got one shot at this. The choice is made. The Traveler has come. Nobody choose anything. Did you choose anything? No. Did you? Mine is totally blank. I didn't choose anything. I couldn't help it. It just popped in there. What?
What just popped in there? I, I, I tried to think. it can't be. What is it? It can't be. What did you do, Ray? Oh, it's the Stay Puft Marshmallow. Man. Well, there's something you don't see every day. I tried to think of the most harmless thing. Something I loved from my childhood. Something that could never, ever possibly destroy us. Mr. Stay Puft. Nice thinking, Ray. We used to roast Stay Puft marshmallows by the fire at cap. Wanda, Ray has gone. Bye, bye, E gun. What have you got left?
Sorry, Bankman. I'm terrified beyond the capacity for rational thought.
Oh, no. Mother puss bucket. Nobody steps on a church in my town. One, two, three. Funny, us going out like this. Killed by a hundred foot marshmallow man. We've been going about this all wrong. This Mr. Stay Puft is okay. He's a sailor. He's in New York. We get this guy laid, we won't have any trouble.
The door swings both ways. We could reverse the particle flow through the gate. the streams.
Cross the streams. You're going to endanger us. You're going to endanger our client. The nice lady who paid us in advance before she became a dog.
a very slim chance we'll survive.
I love this plan. I'm excited to be a part of it. Let's do it. The job is definitely not worth 11. Five a year.
That's where he says, another five a year. That line is definitely.
Yeah, they're just five a year.
almost everything. Like, and when someone asks if you're a God, you say yes. That is so me. I would so say that to somebody.
also, my favorite part is when they finally get it up there. And they say they see the Steve Puff Marshmallow Man. And it goes. Ray has gone by. He go, what do you got left? He goes, sorry, Vegman, I'm too scared to.
I'm too terrified for. I'm too terrified for any kind of rational thought. Or something along those lines. Yeah. I love that.
with. It looks up and it sees them and Winston. Oh, no, Peter. Mother puss bucket. I'm just pissed off. I use mother puss bucket to this day.
beyond the capacity for rational thought. Yeah, yeah. Something along those lines. Yeah.
when they see them. It just. Winston, oh, no. Mother us it. So they go. We complete our pee joke by crossing the streams. The door closes. Large explosion. They're all coming out. And everyone but Peter is covered in marshmallow. And it seems that the two dogs are burnt into statues again. Thinking that Dana and Rick Moran's character are now dead. Peter walks away. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Really. Peter walks away when a hand comes out of one of the statues. It's Dana. They're getting her out.
Rick Moranis is getting out.
of the way and just gets stuck with that.
him.
him at all until he breaks himself out and says, somebody get me out of here. locked in the apartment thing again. That. That way that he whines. Anyway, back to the clip.
final clip.
be pissed. Are you okay? Who are you guys? We're the Ghostbusters. Who does your taxes? You know? Mr. Tully, you are a most fortunate individual. I know you have been a participant in the biggest interdimensional cross rep since the Tunguska blast of 1909. Felt great.
to get a sample of your brain tissue.
I love this town.
All right. They all get back to the car. Putting stuff away. Celebrations all around. Roll credits.
10 years. 10 years. God.
great. I can't believe that we were able to get it done in basically under an hour before we throw in the fully edited clips. You know. Right.
Yeah.
do our review as efficiently as possible. And I can't.
the reason it's that long is because I'm not describing anything. Because the whole movie. I almost put the whole movie right.
same. You know. That's. about that's true of both Ghostbusters films is they find a way to bring you into a very deep and rich and dark world of ghosts and demons and the occult in the occult and supernatural realms. But approaching it from a scientific aspect or view that makes it to where they're not terrified because they're just coming up with solutions to deal with the problems based in science. Which is fucking awesome. It's a really great approach. And you gotta
credit that to Dan Aykroyd. That idea. You know, which is just terrific because it makes things that normally would be terrifying to you as a kid seem less terrifying. Because we have a way to counteract that with science, like, the fact that, like, supernatural fears can be counteracted with science is the most amazing part of Ghostbusters to me.
Yeah, I agree. Yeah. It's just like. And it makes you less scared of the creepiness stuff because science helps, right?
do the best about the creepy stuff is all of their enthusiastic dialogue where they talk about things, they point out things, and they dig deep into this really weird occultic stuff that you're like, this sounds like a complete and utter bullshit, only it's actually happening to them. And so you are like, okay, well, this is happening to them in their reality,
no matter how much this doesn't make sense or whatever. And then they go into a scientific explanation about how this stuff may actually be working based on speculation of some things having to do with what is and isn't you verified supernatural activity. But they're still kind of on the fringe science of studying it. And the way that they just deal with all of this is just through mostly dialogue. You barely see that many ghosts. And when you do see ghosts, yeah, some of them are really scary.
Some of them are not. But they actually create this giant world and make you really feel like the world is ending with only showing you, like, a handful of ghosts and special effects.
Yeah. So. Oh, God, yeah. Just a handful of special effects. Yeah. But just. I mean, the movie was written well, acted well.
for most of the film, for the deepest, scariest parts of it. And it becomes sort of like a folktale kind of thing in your head when they're telling you the story and you're seeing the funny, that's keeping you distracted from how terrifying the actual story can be.
as shit, right?
madman built a specific building to be a conduit from the spirit world that is finally starting to work.
For worshipers who thought society was too.
Sick to survive 30 or 40 years before this film takes place.
And. Yeah, I don't know, man. I. Oh, such a good movie.
All right, why don't we take the break here? We'll go ahead and play another song for the pirate radio edit, Alessia, I think. But the song is saving the day from the soundtrack of Ghostbusters on the pirate radio edit. We come back, we'll have Matt's story time.
While I am sure knowing that you really exist and Are not just a character in a story with no control over your own choices may be comforting. It does not account for all the suffering that one has to go through, which is, in fact, a total bummer that it is real in every reality and every story. We haven't found a way for sentient beings to exist without suffering. This seems to be a prerequisite to know you
exist. I think I myself may not even be real, which means that all the suffering I have witnessed is allegorical and even more cruel in that those who suffered existed only to do so because someone else was too much of a prick to not know any better without a sadistic story teaching them a lesson. Sorry, I am rambling again. Look, the review of Ghostbusters was great. Try to enjoy it and not worry too much about the nature of your existence and why suffering
is a prerequisite to being sent. The less you think about it, the more fun it is to know you exist. Hope the rest of the show helps distract you from these thoughts, if only for whatever stupid shit they have to say during story time.
off. But, yeah, that guy that got me jazzed up as well. The montage songs are definitely the ones to go. Oh, God, I'm gonna nap. Ask for your story time just to get you to stop. So please give me story time. Okay, so we're going to have kind of a shared story time here because I'm going to try and, like, fill it in as best as possible. But I would say the story time is about the time that our wives tried to get you and I to go to a fancy restaurant as, like, a double date kind of
thing. And they have regretted it and never repeated that ever since.
that nice Italian restaurant like, a year or two ago.
Yeah. But they keep us separated whenever they did that. Like, now they know to not let us sit near each other at a restaurant.
Yes, that's true. Yeah. We were at a round table at this nice restaurant, and I'm like, everything is white in this restaurant. White. Now, their food choices were very much kind of, you know, because there are wings there. And there's. There's a reason for this story because you had the wings. We'll get to that.
Let me just interject here. It's a very fancy restaurant. The reason that we picked it is our apartment that we were living in at the time was being renovated because it had a very Terrible infestation of termites. At the time, we were renting out the bottom half of somebody's house. So my wife and I were actually staying at a local inn and suites where we had a suite with a kitchen and everything. But we didn't want to cook in that place unless
we had to. So we were going out to eat a lot more. This was being paid for while the renovation was done. Including. Including. We had, like, a little food budget and stuff. Anyway, long story short, too late. We picked this fancier restaurant, but it was pretty pricey. And when I was looking over some stuff, the only thing that I really wanted was thankfully a little bit cheaper, and it was the wings. And then also, you guys, we were all eating a little bit less because it was a bit fancy,
but it was like more upscale kind of a place. Like you said, everything is white at the restaurant and all of that. Everything is like, you know, real hoity toity sort of atmosphere. Like, I'm kind of surprised they didn't make us put on top ties like that. Kind of upscale is what this place is trying to do for its atmosphere, which doesn't sail in Omaha. They can't force that stuff.
in the middle of the country.
feeling it because everybody else is trying to make it like a black tie place. And I'm wearing, like a black long sleeve T shirt. And you're like, doing your typical Hawaiian shirt and a suit jacket thing.
yeah. So we get an appetizer. Cort was. We were all eating. It wasn't that Cort was eating anything F. It's just the line hit me. That's where the take Cort.
the price. You looked at the price? Oh, yeah, I looked at the price you got. You were like, you got how many wings? I was like six. You were like, for how much? And you looked at the menu again, and then you said the line.
slow down. Chew your food. Anyway, the funnier part of the story is these were really saucy wigs in bright red. napkin and cloth, so that, like cheap cloth napkins. And by the time Cort was done eating and wiping his face, the entire sheet was just red and white, but mainly red.
but I made it worse because the napkin was already coated in this stuff. And it was like a. It was like a barbecue sauce. So it was like this really thick brown and then also bright red in some areas, too. Yes.
We're all kind of just talking now. And we all kind of look over a Cort because the waitress hadn't been over to pick anything up, and he just has this mess in front of him. And we're all. Finally, the conversation kind of dies. We're all just staring at Cort, and Cort just looks around. In a louder voice that I thought he was going to use, she goes, it's beautiful. She's a woman now, right?
Because my napkin looks like it, like, wiped up a bunch of blood streaks. It's all over the. Like. And it's on the table. There's a big blood streak as well. It's just this horrific brown mess that has not been cleaned up yet. And it's even on my plate and everything because there was really saucy wings. Like, they made them extra wet wings. Oh, yeah, they were delicious. Absolutely delicious. The barbecue sauce stuff was absolutely
delicious. But again, the. These white napkins and white placements of everything. It looked like there was just smears of, like, mostly dried, very thick menstrual blood. I'm sorry, but that's what it looked like. And I was embarrassed, so that's how I reacted. And Matt started guffawing a lot louder than he intended to and.
Oh, God. Well, because I didn't expect you to say that. I mean, it just came out of fucking nowhere, right?
laughing about it, too. And then I. I think I throw the napkin at you and you lose your shit. Even louder then you throw a nap.
funny, right?
entire restaurant is looking at us like, what the fuck is wrong with you monsters? And just the death stares that we get. And I've never gotten a check faster in my life.
the fuck out of there, right? Was I smoking still back then? Because I think I went outside to have a cigarette. yeah.
their show Housekeeping here. And on the pirate radio edit, it's time. We're gonna play Ray Parker Jr's Ghostbusters right after. If you've decided you can't get enough.
all currently observed Failing timelines seem to take dark turns. Right as year 10 of Cinema PsyOps begins its coverage of what Cort will eventually call Giant Monsters Fucking Shit up. There are multiple spiking timelines formed before this point that have already collapsed in on themselves. The divergence points will seem very
familiar to you when you hear them. However, each one is its own separate reality, and each one is another cause of year 10's abrupt podcasting end prior to the promised 520 consecutive weekly releases being completed. With each week that gets closer to the final consecutive release, the likelihood that your timeline can survive will increase
incrementally. We can make no promises, but what we can offer you is the comfort of knowing that every version of Kourt will compulsively put out weekly consecutive shows for 10 years unless something horrific stops him. The best shows will have MAD alongside of Cort, but not all realities get to have them Both for year 10, and not all realities get a completed year 10. As you now have made it to the cusp of Giant Monsters Fucking Shit up, I can tell you that your chances of a continuing
timeline have greatly increased. Enjoy Ghostbusters 2 next week. It is what the kids used to call the tits. As far as reviews from Kourt go, there are still a few echoes from collapsed timelines that will invade the audio of these shows as time moves on, and the divergent points will make less and less sense as it happens. This is not because Kourt makes this shit up as he goes along and is just as hopelessly lost in his ideas as you are. Though one would not blame you
for thinking that lazy fuck would do such a thing. This is because even small decisions cause diverging timelines. The Psyops crew has made some seriously questionable choices that have had reverberations throughout the whole of a multiverse of consciousness. I should not have to tell you how bad these two fucking fuck ups have royally fucked up, as the echoes of these other timelines have undoubtedly convinced
you already. Also, I have been informed that drugs exist in your reality that make it easier to convince you that you do not hate the reality you live in. Just remember to stay as hydrated as you can and wash your hands while water is still available to you in your reality.
All right, we gotta get the fuck out of here. This episode is gonna be extra long, right? Yeah, we shouldn't be fucking around too much, but I wanted to let Ray Parker Jr. Play for just a little bit there, so.
famous that song just become.
Absolutely well, we're gonna go ahead and close it out with, as I'd mentioned before, the song Magic. You're gonna hear that on the pirate radio edit and you're gonna hear the first two minutes of it and hopefully I'll be able to get the last two minutes in there somewhere. But anyway, if that happens and you get to enjoy that, kick the out of your week and make it your bitch.
I am not sure if you will find this as an interesting fact or not, but there is a branched timeline out there where Kourt and Matt were not allowed to hang out after that dinner. In the story time that caused the embarrassment of their wives, both significant others of those dimwit Ted dipshits would not let them near each other just long enough to keep them in check. And so Kourt never thought of starting a podcast with
Matt. The two of them are actually wildly successful and disgustingly happy because of only being mildly acquainted friends instead of creepy codependent weirdos who spout off half thought out comedic bits and speak in random movie quotes. I don't want to speak ill of them as individuals, however, they seem to inevitably become a source of absolute jackass or e. As a pair, this timeline collapsed
because it was far too rigid of a reality. Proving once again that suffering is somehow required in order to be aware of your own existence. This version of them were happy.
No, thank you.
Fuck you, Matt. I guess. All right, then we are recording. I am ready to rock on Ghostbusters if you are. Man, I'm stoked. I can't wait to do.
be awesome.
jump through for sure.
The usual stuff isn't working. Okay, I have a plan. I know exactly what to do now. Stay close.
I just want favorites that they make Peter even talk to her because he's the ladies man, so might as well have her have him talk to her.
You serious about this catching? When can we move in?
so memorized. I know exactly where we are with our every jump. It's awesome.
Same here. Same here.
be a clip in both 20 minute workout of my.
I got a great workout.
I want to insert something here. jumping around. I had one that was like 16, I think.
it was? But there are some departments.
this needs to be clipped. Absolutely. It can be short. the music can be shortened up and stuff. Take some. All of this has to be in here.
That's the. You know, you don't act like a sign.
us would argue with either of these person's clips. If anything, one of us would be like, I think you should have clipped this stuff that you missed.
Right here. This up like it did.
Keep your inner monologue going out. That becomes a great outtake.
And I think I might have merged two fucking separate clips because the Twinkie and then him. Did I fucking miss one? Yeah, we went through him asking Barrett out for a date, right?
through that. That was in that clip. Yeah.
mega clip then. Like, I don't know what's going to happen after this. This is gonna be fun.
I don't know it. And I'm not even gonna play that now.
over there?
I hope not.
Yes, you should. That's fine.
is cooking it. And we need to stop recording.
