Ghostbusters Interdimensional Crossrip

Troy and Chris are back this week to talk about the current state of affairs - the whole world is in a state of flux: financially, politically, and technologically and the entertainment industry is feeling the effects. What does it mean for Ghostbusters? And also, is there an answer to all the people clamoring on message boards and social media for an announcement of the next Ghostbusters project and release date? Could those two things be related? Give us a listen to hear our thoughts!

Troy and Chris haven’t connected in a month, so you can be sure there’s a lot to catch up on - so that’s first on the agenda: Universal re-embracing Ghostbusters, Back in Town concluding its four issue run, and more. Then, in the second half of the show, a new exercise inspired by a GBFans thread: if the boys could change just ONE thing about the original Ghostbusters film, what would it be? Tune in to find out what they might tweak George Lucas style, then hit us up on the voicemail to let us know what small change you would make if ever given the chance!

Ghostbusters Day 2024 has come and passed and, while it was a subdued celebration on the marketing side of things, the love for the franchise has never been stronger. Join Troy and Chris as they talk about the celebratory events that took place on both coasts, why they think the marketing noise was on the quieter side, and what expectations we should all have for Ghostbusters Day moving forward. All that plus your voicemails and a few notable news items!

Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire is now available in your home on VOD, and all the bonus features to go with it! This week on the show, Chris and Troy chat about the deleted scenes, behind the scenes materials, commentary and more. Which deleted scenes would have aided in the final cut of the film? Which were better left on the cutting room floor? Some of our answers may surprise you!

This week on the show, we’re talking about Ghostbusters: Back in Town #2 from Dark Horse Comics, and then diving back into some more Ghostbusters cinematic universe loose ends talk from last week! But this time, we’re armed with a lengthy email from resident J.H. Tobin, Michael Tanaka! Things that he’d like to see explored, stories he thinks are worth telling, and a lot of discussion about where and why some of the extended storytelling could, should, and maybe isn’t happening at the moment. It’s a fun one, don’t miss it! (And we love you, Michael. Don’t change.)

This week on the show, now that we’re four canonical films in, we’re exploring the hidden corners and loose ends of the Ghostbusters storytelling that we’d like to see Ghost Corps explore. From Ray and Egon’s rift, to the time period between Ghostbusters II and that rift occurring and beyond, here are the untold stories that we feel are worthy of being told (and in some cases, the medium we think that they should be presented).

This week on the show, we’re talking about Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire’s score by Dario Marianelli, lack of pop tracks, and then chatting a lot about how the lore and magic of the live-action Ghostbusters world is expanded by this film. First up, Troy and Chris walk through some of their favorite score cues and explore some of the new cues heard in the film. There’s a lot of new avenues explored and great ways of furthering Elmer Bernstein’s original music throughout. Then, the boys talk about Nadeem’s character in the film and what doors he opens moving forward, which then naturally turns to an existential discussion where we talk about what it means to become one with the fabric of the universe. Ready?

The Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire discussion continues this week, along with a little bit of chat about Dark Horse’s Back in Town Issue #1! First up, and right out of the gate, we continue with a little debate on Melody’s origins and discuss the recent Hollywood Reporter interview with Emily Alyn Lind that revealed quite a bit. Then we dive into Back in Town #1 and how it helps bridge that time period between Afterlife and Frozen Empire, plus some. All that and more, plus a few more of your voicemails — and we kept it under an hour! Can you believe it?

This week on the show, Troy and Chris dive into Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire (and popcorn buckets… again). It’s a spoiler-filled discussion, so make sure to save this one until you’re absolutely ready. Some of the stand out moments, a couple nitpicks, and what the film sets up for the future are all in the cards. Stay tuned for some of your voicemail reactions too!

Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire is here! And the Crossrip is going to have ALL the coverage you can handle. First up, Troy is going to chat really quickly without spoilers about his thoughts on the film, some reasons behind the critiques that have been seen, and some of the stand out elements of the film that you should be on the lookout for on your first or next viewing. Next week, join Troy and Chris as they spoil the heck out of this movie and talk about anything and everything!
