Bring on the fan edits of GBII. Sherm looks great. Possessed Ray would be incredible all these decades after reading about it in the novelisation and comic. ---

I’ve already started on my own fan edit! I never saw myself doing one, but if it’s as comprehensive as I think it’s going to be, I’m diving in head-first. I had the assembly cut on my mind throughout the lockdown. The score was released, now 19 scenes, plus a few other bits I’m sitting on. The planets aligned. Lord Vigo reached out through the ether and said, “Have fun, buddy.” :love: ---

Would you be doing them yourself or leaving it as is? Honestly? The biggest mistake Ivan made was not including the line about Dana wondering why this was happening to her again. That acknowledgment and Egon’s “answer” would save so much of the criticism. What was he thinking? In writing terms they were “lampshade hanging” and they 1000% needed to include it. If I had to guess the reason why the Ray possessed bit was cut…I’m thinking Dan’s performance might be the answer. When he goes broad…he goes broad. And the “No I’m going to kill EVERYONE” line…it’ll be interesting to see. Only 24 more days! ---

Some as is, but it really just depends. As much as I love learning about the stuff, I’m not super interested in finishing out FX, or even making something super polished. I want to see something more representative of an assembly cut. Warts won’t bother me as long as the footage is all there and accounted for. I don’t want to recreate any missing dialogue or footage. I do have a few fun things I’m playing with, though. > [@Ecto24601 post\_id=4964924 time=1641586594 user\_id=54061](#): > > My resource for deleted scenes from the first two movies was always spookcentral, but that Sherman Tully snippet we see there is not even listed?! My resources for [deleted scenes](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/ghostbusters/deleted-scenes) are production scripts and call sheets. I posted a GB2 scene list earlier in this thread that I believe to be pretty definitive, including the first Sherman scene (spotted in the promo). :love: [Spook Central](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/fans/websites/spook-central) has several script scans. Later scripts dated Feb 89 are pretty well what we should be getting with the deleted scenes. ---

I’m hoping it’s a big, unscripted improvisation bit. From what I gather, the scene was shot with along with the Firehouse B-Roll of the GBs and Janine at work. Ivan described this stuff as “connective tissue” at Fan Fest, and I really hope we see more of it. Much like the shots from the first movie of Egon tinkering with a trap, Ray drinking a beer while “[proton charging](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/fans/websites/proton-charging)” or whatever. I really hope we see more of the 1A inside the firehouse. The smoking trap shot with Janine is soooooo cool. ---

The smoking trap shot with Janine is soooooo cool. Agreed, I think it’s part of the first montage, too. Something to show Ray and Egon experimenting on the slime after the shots of them collecting it in the city and before the scene where they demo it to Peter and Winston. ---

The GB1 preview cut looks to be sourced from the same master that the 1999 [deleted scenes](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/ghostbusters/deleted-scenes) were taken from, judging by the dirt, damage and quality of the video. Could be a new scan/transfer of those old materials, but just looks to be some simple colour and cleanup work done to whatever was done in 99. ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/5/0/5097836fd36d814e45802d5448df75c111703c4a.png) ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/b/c/bc64dcabaa64f9b9fed2f97161e705c0544ac5a4.png) ---

Its great that after all these years of countless re-releases of GB2 that Sony finally opened up the vaults and are giving us so many unseen [deleted scenes](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/ghostbusters/deleted-scenes) some which are hopefully holy grail scenes & ones we have not heard of before 1 we have already seen. Hopefully we get the complete uncut Ray Possessed footage, the presentation by the Statue Of Liberty. ---

Just checked both Wal Mart and Amazon today and both are listing this set as sold out.
