Before 1984, Dan Aykroyd, Bill Murray, and Harold Ramis were known to those who watched Saturday Night Live, rude comedies, or both. But when the little comedy called Ghostbusters, about a ghost containment system and the doofuses who run it, came out, everyone knew who they -oh, and Ernie Hudson- were. The film became a phenomenon. It helped launch the careers of all involved, inspired future ghost hunters, and even took the term 'gatekeeping' to whole new levels when in 2016 fans of the original were threatened by a bunch of females taking over their turf. So why were there only three -four- films made, and is the first film really the only good thing it inspired? Join myself, Matt, and the returning Logan James to help answer the call of just how good a franchise Ghostbusters is.First and foremost, you might notice a change in the lineup of this sequel we were building up to. The podcast addresses that, as well as Adam's Ghostbusters history, before we dig right into Ghostbusters Afterlife, Jason Reitman's sequel (or is it love letter?) to his father Ivan's Ghostbusters legacy. But is it any good? Are the cameos and numerous nods put in the film in the name of member berries enough to please the three hosts? After all, it worked sooo well with 2016's Ghostbusters remake.Listen below to this review of one of the year's most highly anticipated films Ghostbusters Afterlife (2021) (?/10, ?/10, ?/10)CLICK ABOVE TO LISTEN NOW!Subscribe to Binge Cast on iTunes
