I really dug the film. My largest critique is that the whole movie was predicated on the idea that Ray didn't believe Egon about Gozer coming back. Egon and Rey felt inseparable in the latter films and it seemed way out of character. Other then that a solid, fun watch with great new characters and a wonderful way to continue the franchise.

Thank you James. Seriously, thank you! This review sums up everything!!!

Glad to hear you enjoyed Ghostbusters: Afterlife. I thought it was a very well made film that honored the original characters and what came before, while also introducing new characters that can carry this franchise moving forward.

I can only hope that nostalgia will not only be handled with more respect than it has in the past, but won't be the soul driving force behind movies. We need creativity and originality above All Else.

I really enjoyed it. It had an 80s feel to it, like the Goonies mixed with Ghostbusters. It's so strange that we finally have a GB trilogy!

Seeing his hairline receding makes me realize how old we all are getting

This movie was a fantastic send off for Harold Ramis not only the end of the movie but also in the heroic but also tragic way in which the charactor of Egon was depicted

James said something that I totally agree with that I didn't ever think about, nostalgia HAS become a genre in movies now

I agree. The legacy characters weren’t given their chance to shine and there was no proper reunion for Han, Luke and Leia. If you want to see Luke get proper treatment check out The Mandalorian on Disney +

interesting thing to note: the actor who plays Egon's body is the guy who played Costa in Project X, that late 00s raunchy comedy about a guy throwing a party that gets wayyy too out of control. I kind of hope he comes back to play a character in the next film

As far as passing the torch films, I don't know what's my favorite but Maverick came to mind as one you didn't mention.

Maybe the Scream movies can "pass the torch" where Sidney has a son where it goes to him like how Egon's daughter from the Ghostbusters movies has it handed to her.

What a coincidence! I literally just got done watching this movie a few days ago and was thinking of how neat it would be to see you provide your thoughts on it in a review. Well here that is.

I loved the movie! Considering how long it's been since the original, I felt that the movie was pretty much what it needed to be. A fun ride, and a heartfelt goodbye to Ramis.

Excellent review. I loved the movie. I think the reason the proton packs never got smaller or more efficient tech is because the Ghostbusters seem to have disbabded shortly after the events of GB2. No point in working on tech that mostly will never be used (from their perspective). Just a guess though.

That comb over is quite nostalgic.

the thing missing from Ghostbusters afterlife was Ghosts. I wish there were more in this film.

I'm glad Afterlife was a departure tonally from the other movies, it makes it feel fresh as its own style of movie while still feeling in the spirit of Ghostbusters. It's pretty charming. A thing that I didn't understand much is how everyone but Grooberson seemingly never know ghosts existed or have seen anything about the Ghostbusters in the 30 years since, in the age of KZread/TikTok where it's easy to go into a rabbit hole of history & cover ups & conspiracy videos? Baffling logic, but still a fun movie!

Generations isn't really a passing of the torch, because the TNG had been established for years by then, and DS9 had been going by then, while Voyager was on its way. Encounter at Farpoint's McCoy scene was more of a passing of the torch, because the TNG crew were being introduced to audiences then.

No. Generations was a excuse to put TNG on film. Kirk on it was the "gimmicky cover".

I'd argue that it didn't really pass the torch; the only interaction between the two casts was in the Captains, and by that point TNG had completed a 7 season run which had already included McCoy, Scotty and Spock in cameos. But there seemed to be a torch-passing moment for every classic Trek. McCoy in Encounter At Farpoint. Picard in Emissary. Quark in Caretaker. And I guess the reviled last episode of Enterprise, called These Are The Voyages, was a torch-passing back to the TNG cast.

Why do I get the feeling that James is about get me to drink some koolaid and prepare to be taken by our alien overlords.
