I saw him at a pub in St Augustine Beach ~2006 with his security. It was an almost empty pub. He was watching sports on the TV. I was managing a hostel in St Augustine at the time and had some guests with me. We wanted to go say hi to him but decided to just let him have his space. Still was cool though to be in the same room with him.

Bill Murray is a midwest kid that never lost that midwest perspective when he made it big in the entertainment industry. I think that's what sets him apart from most celebrities. He's a grounded, genuine person that has no interest in the bullshit that comes along with celebrity. Jeff Daniels is another person that comes to mind that's a lot like that.

Because back in the day, they didn't know how cinema was going to fall in the following decades, so a success like Ghostbusters was relatively normal.

Gotta love the quality of old VHS tapes.

First movie I ever watched when we got our first VCR was Ghostbusters, when VCRs first came out. Loved him in Stripes, SNL, Caddyshack, pretty much everything he's been in, he's a comedic genius, God I love him! 😂😂😂😂❤❤

What he said about Ghostbusters being about some New Yorkers made me realise just how important the location was - i'm English and I've never been to New York but this film made me love it and want to go there. The story was so clever - the script is so unique and thought provoking... and THAT SCORE! one of the best, just perfect for the film. 👌

Columbia Pictures contract with Bill Murray was he does “Ghostbusters” and they finance “The Razor’s Edge”...

The film hadn't been released yet. i wonder if Bill knew just how big, well loved and iconic the film would become...and that was just the release year!

This was filmed literally two weeks after Ghostbusters was released. In those two weeks, Bill and rest were poll vaulted to superstardom. This is exactly the moment where he went from not wanting to do the movie, to now knowing it’s the biggest of the year.

thats THE most vague discription of ANY movie ever.

Bill Murray has always been the biggest goof and the biggest weirdo I’ve ever known among the greatest comics of Hollywood, but he sure has the most greatest heart and he is the most nicest guy of all.

He is still in his character from Ghost Busters.

I love the movie Groundhog Day. I've seen it at least 20 times. And there's one little tiny part that bugs me every time I see it. This seems like as good a place as any to bring it up, with lots of Groundhog Day fans chiming in. When Phil (Murray) is on stage playing the piano at the party toward the end of the movie, Rita is watching him with pleasant surprise, not realizing he played an instrument so well. Right next to her is the piano teacher we've met before. She turns to Rita and says, approvingly, "He's my student." Now if Phil has reached this level of expertise, playing onstage with a band, it means that he came to the piano teacher that day -- since there is only the one day they interact -- already skilled as a musician. If Phil has indeed achieved that level of proficiency, why would he even stop by the piano teacher's home? And if he did, is she actually teaching him anything or are they just discussing some random minor point? It just seems odd for her to call Phil "my student" at that point, when the first time he meets her, he is already an accomplished player. (Maybe I'm overthinking this -- hahaha.)

Another thing that always perplexed me about the storyline is that although he keeps repeating Feb. 2nd, each time there are differences relative to what he's choosing to do to manipulate everything. So, in a real sense, he's not living that "over and over and over" as he puts it. They're actually different days that just happen to always fall on Groundhog Day.
