I kind of appreciate that you assumed we would never guess the cameo, and we came up with even more obscure guesses than what ended up being the perfectly reasonable correct one :lol:
Still think the Con Ed guy responding to the beam would have been an ideal cameo though.
Since the film got delayed almost a whole month where I’m from and he’s one of my favorite comics, would you mind talking about Lars role in the film? How significant is he to the plot?
He plays more of a supporting role than main. Significant? Well everyone has a role to play but he’s not strapping on a pack. If you’re familiar with Bond movies he’s closer to Q more than anything.

Not so much “you could never guess” and more “if someone says they saw this cameo coming they’re full of it.”
There’s nothing to cry about during Frozen Empire. I wonder what he’s talking about.

True! Though the possibility of library guy showing up in a movie that features the library and the library ghost would be very reasonable (Richardless did seem to guess him as an option before noticing the real answer was posted). Instead we’re here like “Ghostbusters Alright guy or we riot!”
I am so glad to hear that! I don’t mind getting emotional over GBA but I didn’t particularly feel like feeling sad over this movie. Though to be fair I’ve gotten a bit teary just at seeing a movie I anticipated for awhile, but it’s a different kind of emotion.
Much to my great disappointment, not a single past ghost shows up. No Scoleri Bros, nothing nothing nothing. Just generic looking spirits flying out. If you’ve seen the tv spots showing the ghosts flying/streaking by, you’ve seen them all. Also no Vigo nor Gozer.
I keep wondering how expensive this movie is.The 75 million figure from Afterlife gives a good idea FE is bigger but since it was shot on sets in UK i wonder if it wasn’t that expensive
I’m a fan of the original crew. Afterlife was Ok - but for me I was hoping for a passing of the torch movie, with the original guys getting significant screen time…so I was disappointed. This one has my hopes up but can’t tell if this is a true team up or really just the new guys again with some “extended cameos” for the originals. So how much are the original Ghostbusters in it? Is it basically the new generation, with the old crew being in it for 15-20 minutes interspersed throughout? Or are they in it for at least half the movie - can you ballpark how much screen time the old crew collectively get? Also, how much is Venkman in it - is it like just 5-10 minutes (2 or 3 scenes) or is he in it for like 30 minutes (with several scenes)?
I mean, it sounds like they set themselves up for the sequels to have “hey, remember this ghost?!” pop up cameos now that the containment unit has broke down again.
