Jason Reitman Wants a Theme Park

https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/a-ghostbusters-theme-park-ride-afterlifes-jason-reitman-has-a-cool-idea

While it’s been done in the past, what’s everyone’s take on the idea? What would be your expectations and how many years would it be before this idea leaves the drawing boards?

Would you want something similar to Star Wars Galaxy edge where we get a full on replica of the fire house that opens up into a SImpsons type ride, or maybe a full on roller coaster similar to the Real Ghostbusters episode Roller Ghoster? Would you want a gift shop with with an exclusive restaurant or bar?

With the success of Afterlife how many people here will attend Halloween Horror Nights if Ghostbusters becomes the running theme? Horror Nights would be the best opportunity for Sony to gauge interest in a project like this! What’s everyone’s thoughts for a Ghostbusters themed attraction?

I’d be interested. You could go into the firehouse and do a full VR or non-VR ghostbusting scenario (like laser tag meets larp). Could also include a ride.

Now that the Ecto has a gunner seat in Ghostbusters: Afterlife it could make a cool park ride but it would also be cool to have something from the Kenner Toyline, maybe a roller coaster with carts that look like the Ecto 2 flying or crash cars that look like the Ecto 3 because it’s like a Go Kart.

Firehouse where they let you use the pole and get dressed up etc - definitely,

and a few ecto-1’s to give people rides around the park between attractions.

I tried to get the Youtube code to work, but couldn’t. Thanks in advance to any mod that does.

Anyway, this video is by Bob Moseley who is going to be opening a Ghostbusters Experience in Las Vegas that has basically everything you guys have mentioned, except you’d be able to drive an Ecto-1 replica. The video starts with Bob in Tribeca at Hook and Ladder 8 with him explaining why he’s there, and at about 5 minutes in or so, it switches back to the site of where he’ll be building the full size replica of the firehouse.

Be wary of anything Videobob says, Jeremy. You’ll get the full dreary story on this guy here:

Thanks Fritz, but I saw the blacklist before I saw your response, and I was already kinda wary of him, but I saw the thread and remembered that vid.

Gee what a surprise he was lying and full of **** like always. :open_mouth:

Im confused…whos a lying sack of &%$? Jason Reitman or someone else? Cause sometimes they do have genuine plans to build parks and what have you but cant secure the funding. They may be floating the idea, but the studio doesn’t feel its profitable or they just dont have the money to do it. I’m not defending Jason Reitman i dont know him, but im confused on this whole topic…

OH nevermind…i read the entire post and your talking about that bob guy. Yeah…i dont know the details but apparently hes like the biggest con man in the prop replica game apparently. I was sitting here thinking “When did Jason Reitman outright lie, he seems like a genuine good dude who loves the franchise and is protective of it” and i was thinking did i miss something major? Like im usually up to date with my ghostbusters stuff.

But that bob guy, yeah, he has a bad rep and just has a bad vibe to him when i stop and think about it.

I started watching his Kift replica videos during Covid (Knight Rider four thousand? ) if you don’t know the abbreviation and he just comes off as an outright weasel to me. Over the years the guys been proven to be a shyster. He’s a bigger clown then Ronld Mc Donald.

there are probley some alternate earths in the multiverse where there are many ghostbusters theme parks in canada and in the us of a
