[quote=Ecto24601 post_id=4986364 time=1696953238 user_id=54061]I realized that the GB’s must have their bill(s) paid by the city after the Scoleri bust-hence why they could afford all the fancy new stuff including Ecto-1A and get back into business (firehouse renovation) so quickly. It would also explain Hardemeyer’s reaction to the TV commercial and the general hostility of the mayor, despite them saving the town all over again. Lenny’s wallet was hurt badly.

I don’t know if Lenny and the city would’ve done that out of the goodness of their own heart just because the guys busted the Scoleris… I know it’s a bit wonky because the scenes for it ended up on the cutting room floor, but to me the debt owed to the guys for the Gozer job was only paid by the city in the aftermath of Vigo’s defeat… Potentially infurred by them receiving the key to the city in the end credits.
Re: “why didn’t Ray believe Egon”, my take is that Egon essentially went mad scientist. There was always a streak of that in his character and while Ray and Egon seem to have a good friendship in the movies, Ray was the glue between Egon and Peter (and subsequently Winston). Without Ray, there wouldn’t be the Ghostbusters.
I have to imagine if Spengler demanded the team to relocate to somewhere in the middle of nowhere, there would be some pushback from Peter and Winston (who are more practically minded) and they’d ask him to provide more concrete evidence. Ray would be on the fence between Egon and the rest on the issue – believing Egon but also somewhat siding with Venkman and Zeddemore. And when Egon steals the team’s equipment and disappears, this tears the team apart and Ray would take this personally. Ray seems like a sensitive guy and I think it would eat at him that Egon could have done something cold like that.
So there ya go, my head canon. Maybe that will help your enjoyment of this uneven sequel!
Movie is scheduled to air on FX today. Probably won’t show any new deleted scenes but TV airings typically include deleted footage to extend it besides a bunch of commercials. They included deleted bits for ATC.
Cool, saved it to my DVR and will go through it a couple times. I presume the majority of the edits will be Callie’s potty mouth. lol. Yeah, the movie is 124 minutes and the time slot is 130 minutes total. Doubt any deleted scenes will be in it but who knows.
From her panel at the Steel City Con, at around 10:20, Mckenna Grace talks about her chemistry read with Carrie ■■■■, Logan Kim, the Reitmans, putting on the Proton Pack, and when she learned she got the role.
Artist Kirsten Franson posted concepts, models, bts photos back in November. I think most if not all can be seen in the Making of Book but nonetheless:
So now it’s scheduled to air on Freeform next Sunday the 7th with a runtime of 3 hours. Again mayyyybe they’ll show some deleted stuff. It’s a much longer runtime than the FX airing.
I don’t know for sure because I haven’t checked but I’ve watched some Disney movies on there and I think they’ve included some deleted things. Still the channel is known for having a lot of commercials so it wouldn’t surprise me there’s nothing new.
