We’d seen photos pop up from Al Roker’s set tour a while back, but now the videos for the interview have been released. There’s a couple of bits with McCarthy, Wiig, Jones and McKinnon and Feig, and also a smattering of behind the scenes shots during filming which some may wish to avoid for spoilers: [Stars of ‘Ghostbusters’ reboot on costumes, camaraderie, and comedy](http://www.today.com/video/stars-of-ghostbusters-reboot-on-costumes-camaraderie-and-comedy-665867843672) [Al Roker interviews cast of ‘Ghostbusters’ reboot on set, and freaks them out](http://www.today.com/video/al-roker-interviews-cast-of-ghostbusters-reboot-on-set-and-freaks-them-out-665831491960) [Go behind the scenes of the ‘Ghostbusters’ reboot: From action to slime](http://www.today.com/video/go-behind-the-scenes-of-the-ghostbusters-reboot-from-action-to-slime-666171459704) ---

Nice, they’re cute together. And I admit that “let’s go” joke is kinda growing on me, lol. It’s Marvel-esque humor, but that makes sense. They seem to be the only action/comedy movies doing well right now. 😉 ---

Was just coming here to post this. Some neat stuff for sure. You could see how they do the special effects lights with the wands as well. You can see the attachment that was spoken about by extras on set. ---

> [@JurorNo.2](#): > > And I admit that “let’s go” joke is kinda growing on me, lol. It’s Marvel-esque humor, but that makes sense. Yeah, I really like that bit. It’s sort of that awkward/social humor, which could really play well with the whole everday blue collar sci-fi approach. Boring everyday stuff mixed with the fantastical. Hopefully that’s the direction it’s going in. The behind the scenes shot of McKinnon triumphantly raising the smoking trap above her head was pretty cool! ---

Cool, looks like some b-roll of the Mercado set, the Chinese restaurant office, and maybe one more. 70 [flight suits](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/uniform) made total? Wow! ---

Awesome! Now I’m not getting any work done. 😃 ---

The only thing I got from those interviews is that the presenter is a big Ghostbusters fan and [Paul Feig](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/paul-feig) was bullied by boys when he was young so he spent more time with girls. Erm, that’s about it. :mrgreen: ---

The interviews themselves were fluff but the big nugget of info is watching these Mercado scenes being filmed between Q&A and during. In the ET one in particular, I laughed at the scenes with Frazier talking to the main 4. McCarthy and McKinnon were hilarious, imo. And the rendition they did at the end was awesome. You can’t deny they have chemistry. ---

Same here, I feel the movie needs the footage shown at cinemacon to be spread around though, as it helps set the tone for the movie and hopefully gives a better feel of the tone of GB16.
