Ghostbusters Afterlife is to Ghostbusters what The Mandalorian is to Star Wars: What people really wanted/asked for.

You missed one cool easter egg: After Hugging his daughter for the last time, Egon spirit transform into some kind of particles and rise to the sky. But if you paid attention to those particles, you can see how it shapes the ghostbusters logo for a split second. 😉

When the police chief says “who you gonna call?” The whole cinema laughed

I think there were two different Ectos, and Egon just took the older one. Also, the field that Trevor drives Ecto through was actually planted for that scene, then harvested and sold.

To shed some light on the whole Ecto 1 confusion, it’s all explained in a deleted scene from GB2. During the scenes where Ecto 1 is still in bad condition, it actually breaks down with the crew inside. However they break down across from a used car lot, in which sits an identical model Cadillac which they turn into Ecto 1A. Now, that means that Egon may have kept Ecto 1 making a few modifications but ultimately not being able to fix it, and then takes it as per the story of Afterlife.

I love that the purple eyeball ghost from the toy line made an appearance.

I also noticed that when a mini stay-puft was on the grill in Walmart he started melting and as he did he gave a thumbs up like in terminator 2

I'm pretty sure the Ecto 1 and the Ecto 1A are separate cars otherwise, how did the Ghostbusters get there to help the kids fight Gozer?

I find the myth about twinkies having an infinite shelf-life to be hilariously ironic, considering they actually go sour and moldy *super quickly* in reality.

Minor point, but in GB:A, Egon *does* use crossing the streams on the gateway through which Gozer is trying to return through. The Proton Cannons that he rigs up in the mine are specifically aimed so that the four beams will converge and shoot down the shaft when the gateway tries to open. Also, it's mentioned that Gozer's energy/power/being is basically energy flowing through the gateway to manifest here on Earth. Attacking the gateway to swing the door not only reverses the energy flow to "suck her back through", but presumably reverses the energy polarity to weaken her/causing her manifestation to lose coherence and power. In the movie, by crossing the streams against Gozer herself, they're banking on a similar effect of the crossed beams weakening and dispersing Gozer enough that she can't continue to attack or do damage here and thus buy enough time to try and trap her. Also, I would argue that by the fact that she's left the mine and the well of souls that is feeding her power moves with her, by that point there's no longer an open gateway to zap, she's already *here*. Thus, all they *can* do is try and weaken her enough that they can ultimately trap her and contain her. Unfortunately, too, while i'm sure Ray knows his stuff about the occult, none of them have the power or the knowledge to open a gateway back to whatever plane of existence Gozer originally inhabits, much less have any way of forcing her and her minions/spirit support/whatever through the portal without letting anything else on the other side come back this way.

Just watched it tonight, I'm 48, I cried like a baby at the end. There were sooooo many nuggets of awesomeness in there and the 2 hours flew past so I'm hoping IF there's a future film to follow (as teased) that its in the same spirit as GBAL :)

The god was supposedly Summerian. And the town was called Summerville.

Ghostbusters afterlife was an amazing movie in my opinion ☺️, it's a great Tribute to Egon Spengler Harold Ramis 🙏

In Afterlife when Gozer asks Ray, "Are you a god?" it looks like it has a smirk. It isn't giving Ray a second chance, it's basically acknowledging that it recognizes him, Winston and Peter.

The fact that Paul Rudd’s character chose basken robbins ice cream was a fun nod to Ant-man

Ray’s Occult bookstore appears in this movie as well as in Ghostbusters II so therefore Ghostbusters II does exist as canon.

Here’s a fun one. In ghostbusters 1 they go to jail at some point in the movie. In ghostbusters 2, same. And in Afterlife, the kids go to local jail. I thought it was a cute plot reference.

When the girl gives Trevor the hoodie and says "here it has a wolf on it" and Finn's last name is Wolfhard 🥰 I loved that detail.

The "Spores, molds, and fungus" joke was always my favorite, because every human being on planet earth does this. It's a pretty dark joke. Love it 😄

If you didn't legit shed tears at the end of this film, then you aren't a true Ghostbusters fan. That ending was perfection.

You know the toy version of ecto 1 did also have a gunner seat.........

5:30 There WAS an Ecto 1 toy with a seat just like that! Don't know which came first, the Ninja Turtles or the Ghostbusters toy, but it was definitely a toy thing back in the day.

I think Ray talking about business slowing down to catching ghosts once a week was a nod to the Real Ghostbusters that lived on past the movies on abc Saturday mornings

I'm pretty sure I saw the "MAID" doorknob hanger from the first movie (the one seen hanging on the "Venkman burn in hell" door, at the university) on a wall in the farmhouse.

I loved this, it was awesome to watch as a Ghostbusters fan, the spirit of it is there not just nostalgia and it sets up the new cast to do more Ghostbusters.

Claims to have 20 things we missed. Proceeds to list 20 glaring obvious things that nobody that knows Ghostbusters missed. Well thanks!

You know, I would be willing to abandon this notion of Afterlife not including Ghostbusters II as canon if there would have been a scene in Afterlife where... gee, I don't know, if Ray was answering the phone from his bookstore or something.

The theater in town is playing “Cannibal Girls.” That’s the same movie being advertised on the marquee in Ghostbusters two during the citywide ghost attack when the woman’s fur coat comes alive and runs away.

it's not that Gozer is 'ready' this time, it's cos theyre arent enough streams (3 not 4 initially)

I just really loved Ghostbusters Afterlife!

The Destroyer can only ever take a single form in any one dimension. When Ray chose the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man, it permanently established the form for the Destroyer. That's why they came to life.

I have no idea why I thought I would hate this movie. I bloody LOVED IT!!!!

Ray got the Bible quote right this time. In 1984 he quotes REV 7:12. It’s actually REV 6:12 and he even has it tattooed on his arm now.

The thing about actual Easter Eggs is they're hidden. These weren't Easter Eggs, these were just eggs lying on the kitchen counter. Nobody missed any of these

There are LOTS of bits of the score that re-use Elmer Bernstein's score from the original movie, and they're used in the same types of plot movements in Afterlife. I thought that was pretty cool.

To be so emotionally attached to these characteristics for so long, I can't help but cry every time I see the end scene!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰

Who's your favorite character from this movie?

One you didn’t mention that I noticed immediately when I watched the movie was the music queue in the very first seconds. It was the exact same music queue that opened the first movie. Little piano key tingle

About Gozer and Stay Puft... If we're regarding the video game as canon still (even if it's soft-canon), they do explain in the game that Gozer's destructor form was locked into the manifestation of the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man mascot after the Ghostbusters closed the New York gateway. Considering that New York City was also a hub of PK energy at the time, thanks in no small part to Spook Central's influence, it would make sense that the significant lack of PK energy in Summerville would result in Gozer not being able to summon a full sized destructor form but would have to use whatever little bit of energy available to create the mini-Pufts.

I was starting to think I was crazy. I totally got father/son Kamehameha vibes from that ending part, but I hadn't heard anyone else say anything about it until now! Thank you!

If there really are jobs like the ghostbusters, I'll def join.

I had that "Turtle Van" as a child.

There's a show called The Sinner where the actress who plays the mom actually stars in. You'll get why I'm saying this once you've watched the movie.

The ecto 1 actually had to be upgraded to shoot the scene in the field. It couldnt do the turns in the field with the engine in it so they changed the engine to shoot the scene

I think gozer saying “are you a god?” Again is more gozer mocking ray and showing the ghostbusters that she remembers them

So I dunno how, as a Dragonball fan I missed that potential reference with Egon and Phoebe. Also, when Ray mentions things going slow with ghost catching I took that as a reference to Ghostbusters 2 where at that point, they were reduced to children's parties.

When we first see the Zuul possessed mom she's sitting in the same chair Dana was in when she got possessed. The hole where the ghost hand broke through the chair is still there.

Fun fact: gozer translated to Dutch means something like “dude”

Didn’t Ray say the fire station was turned into a Starbucks?

Fun thought: some say the activation of the large hadron collider caused some kind of dimensional change, and that moment is when the mandela effect began.

How could you miss any of these? I've seen the movie once and I didn't learn a single thing from this video...

The reason there are still ghosts in the containment machine in the Ghostbusters main headquarters is answered in the Afterlife film when Phoebe is in jail and on the phone with Ray who mentions that the original Ghostbusters continued to catch ghosts for a little while until they broke up.

I really do not understand why people don't think the film acknowledges ghostbusters 2. Even in the trailer Ray Stanz is running his occult bookstore.. which was from Ghostbusters 2.

I remember before the movie started the trailer for no way home played a small group of the crowd cheered

This is amazing this is a proper movie so it’s like ghostbuster number 3

5:10 mark the gunner seat is from the toy line from the REAL GHOSTBUSTERS. not the game. the game got it from the cartoon as well

Here's another one When gary (voiced by Paul rudd) was in Walmart, we saw him getting a Baskin Robbins product. In antman, (also starring Paul rudd) Scott Lang was working in baskin Robbins

I can confirm, a Twinkie that’s less than 2 years old is not fresh nor “moist”

How about "Bog eye" from the Kenner toy line making an appearance? I thought that was pretty cool.

Ray's occult books is from Ghostbusters 2 isn't it? Where he was working in Afterlife.

Phoebe touching the trap at the end and being rewarded with electricity goes back to the ballroom scene in the first film, and, more obvious, the lights used to recreate the ghosts escaping in the "I Believe It's Magic" scene in GB 1.

In the after credits scenes, when Ernie Hudson was talking about restoring the firehouse, in the basement was the containment equipment. There was still a light flashing on it.

Bit of a stretch but a specific one, one of the jokes that Phoebe mentions in front of Gozer "What do you call a fish with no i? A fsh" is also brought up by Finn Wolfhard in an episode of GameGrumps that he's featured on. Not that it's a reference to GameGrumps but I have a feeling Finn suggested that line at some point

Ivo & Gozer? Remember Farmer's Insurance, they know a thing or two, cause they've seen a thing torn in two. 😂🤣

The references to Ghostbusters 2 are numerous

I need to watch the start again so I can see what the letters on the Diner spell when Egon rips past in the truck, because when Ecto1 is heading back to the house at the end it takes the corner in the same way and the diner sign says "S INNERS"

you missed the straighten slinky on phoebe's table

In a 1990 specterum ( charter cable ) commercial Dan Akroid said I am really nice guy I don't really eat metal, And then we get the metal eating slimer :) Nice touch

I think got it all, why because i watched this great movie threetimes already and counting.. best movie 2021.

If they do anymore sequels, Jason Rietman should use some of the Real Ghostbusters material. There's so many good villains and ghosts in that show that I'd be sure they could make more films with. I'm honestly just glad we finally have a close on the original Ghostbusters saga, it's the perfect happy ending.

New person: what things do you like? Me: *smirks in Ghostbusters fan* I collect spors molds and fungus

I don't understand why no one would consider GB2 canon.. and it has nothing to do with a toaster. Ray was shown owning and running his occult bookstore in GB2 and that is clearly shown in Afterlife as well.

In the dates of interest on the walls the year 1945 is also the cop car number in ghostbusters one that shows up at the shutdown event of the grid.

Seriously, all my life, I always thought Peter gave Egon a $20 bill and not a crunch bar!!!

HE7YYYYYYY CLAIM UR 1 HOUR TICKET HERE

I thought the Extreme Ghostbusters had a gunner seat that the wheelchair guy would use. Did I remember that wrong?

Example: The Pitch Meeting

At the end of your video there's a ghost with a big eye on his forehead. It's a replica of a toy ghost of the 80's real ghostbusters action figures. I still got it.

You completely missed one inside baseball easter egg; Jason Reitman's tribute to his father and original Ghostbusters director Ivan Reitman. When Podcast and Phoebe are walking by the movie theatre in town, look at the marquee; the movie listed as playing is Ivan Reitman's first ever feature film he co-wrote and directed, Cannibal Girls. I caught it right away and was impressed! My family was just annoyed that I paused the movie to explain it to them! 🤣

Photo Sensitivity Epilepsy warning for the last reference scene

I dont know if its just me but, if i understood well, when Egon was sitting on the chair waiting, he teases himself and die before, so the Terror Dog cant possesed im ?!? Make sense ? 🤔😕

Now I will rewatch it knowing I know these things I missed 😃👍🏽

If Bill Murray were his Phil Connors character, he could answer the "Are you a god?" question with "Yes. I'm A god; I'm not THE God."

After they blast the dinner with proton streams the sign says “Sinners” instead of spinners.

You missed the giant eyeball ghost that was a nod to the big eye ghost toy from the 80’s.

Cannibal girls on the cinema in the background is a reference to Ghostbusters 2

i loved this new movie

in one scene there is a stay puff add

I'm so glad he thought about Dragon Ball too!

I’m pretty sure it was Vegetas sneak attack that gave Gohan the opportunity to kill Cell and Goku was just coaching Gohan

This movie was actually perfect, I think...

Ghostbusters 2 the echo mobile’s plate is 1A this movie and the first movie it’s 1. So I take it to mean there’s 2 separate ectomobiles 1& 1A. We might see both in the next installment

I love Paul Rudd

Ya I even said after seeing it that they referenced DBZ in the end.

A lot of those modifications that you seen on the Ecto-one was seen in the animated series. Afterlife ecto-1 has the appearance of the ecto-1 in the animated series as well

My theory about the ghostbusters game is canon is that in the Ghostbusters game, we are a rookie trying to become a ghost buster what if that the rookie took the Ecto 1a to start his own business in a different state.

Gary Reading An Avenger Comic Book in his Class 🙂

Cannibal Girls at 7pm advertised on the cinema!

Yeah I think that after GB1, the team bought a new Ecto and built her different to Ecto-1. Then Spengler kept the original Ecto and maybe sold Ecto-1A

Ugh, expected things here i missed, but anyone who knows to OG movies and has seen the new movie knows this all. Like, if you missed the twinkie or stacked books reference you seriously were asleep at the theater. Movie was total baddass though and in the age of (unwanted) old movie sequels this was the best one sofar.
