Dr. Peter Venkman: This city is headed for a disaster of biblical proportions.

Mayor: What do you mean, "biblical"?

Dr. Peter Venkman: Exactly.

Dr Ray Stantz: Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies. Rivers and seas boiling.

Dr. Egon Spengler: Forty years of darkness. Earthquakes, volcanoes...

Winston Zeddemore: The dead rising from the grave.

I love that quote from the film. Its because my friend Jem used to love it and would repeat it whenever anyone mentioned Ghostbusters. *sigh* I miss those days.

[TMM]

I was on my break at work and I turned on the TV only to find it had just started, so I was pissed. Thank god I have it on DVD.

[ravenjuice]

Easily my favourite film, there are so many great one liners in it, and bill murray is a god.

Anyone think the second one is slightly better? Or am i alone in that?

Guh?

Uploading the Ghost Busters theme by NFG to the EWB G-Mail account now.

The Game's spoof of the theme is by far the best rap song ever.

Your momma?

Ghostbusters is mint. I loved the first one and watched it like a zillion times.

Dr. Egon Spengler: There's something very important I forgot to tell you.

Dr. Peter Venkman: What?

Dr. Egon Spengler: Don't cross the streams.

Dr. Peter Venkman: Why?

Dr. Egon Spengler: It would be bad.

Dr. Peter Venkman: I'm fuzzy on the whole good/bad thing. What do you mean, "bad?"

Dr. Egon Spengler: Try to imagine all life as you know it stopping instantaneously and every molecule in your body exploding at the speed of light.

Dr Ray Stantz: Total protonic reversal.

Dr. Peter Venkman: Right. That's bad. Okay. All right. Important safety tip. Thanks, Egon.

Memorable Quotes from

Ghost Busters (1984)

[inspecting Dana's refrigerator for paranormal activity]

Dr. Peter Venkman: Oh my God. Look at all the junk food.

Dana Barrett: No. No, Dammit. Look this wasn't here...

Dr. Peter Venkman: You actually eat this?

Dana Barrett: No, this wasn't here. There was nothing here. There was this... space, with a building or something with flames coming out of it, and there were creatures writhing around it, and they were growling and snarling. And there were flames, and I heard a voice say "Zuul" I mean it was right here.

Dr. Peter Venkman: Well I'm sorry, I'm just not getting any reading.

Dana Barrett: Well are you sure you're using that thing correctly?

Dr. Peter Venkman: Yeah, Its not... I mean I think so, but Im sure there are no animals in there.

Dana Barrett: This is great. Either I have a monster in my kitchen or I'm completely crazy.

Dr. Peter Venkman: [smiles] I don't think you're crazy.

Dana Barrett: [sarcastically] Oh good, that makes me feel so much better.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Casey Kasem: Still making headlines all across the country, the Ghostbusters are at it again. This time, at the fashionable dance club, "The Rose."

Dr. Egon Spengler: Sumerian, not Babylonian.

Dr. Peter Venkman: Yeah. Big difference.

Librarian Alice: No.

Dr. Peter Venkman: No, no. Just asking. Are you, Alice, menstruating right now?

Futurama Season 2, easiest call ever, Futurama is funnier, longer and superior in every way IMO.

[apsham]

Does anyone have a .gif of the Simpsons dancing to the Ghostbusters theme? That was the best ending to a show ever.

EDIT: And I don't really think that's New Found Glory, by the way. Covers of songs done in that style are usually attributed to them, thanks to their album of covers that mainly consisted of songs from movies.
