Ghostbusters (2016) has been released so what better time to go back and examine the originals that started it all!

Ghostbusters is a 1984 American supernatural comedy film directed and produced by Ivan Reitman and written by Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis. The film stars Bill Murray, Aykroyd and Ramis as three eccentric parapsychologists who start a ghost-catching business in New York City.

It is the sequel to the 1984 film Ghostbusters, and follows the further adventures of the four parapsychologists and their organization which combats paranormal activities.

Sean will also talk about Ghostbuster the Video Game, which is ostensibly the 3rd and final chapter of the original Ghostbusters trilogy.

Ghostbusters: The Video Game is a 2009 action-adventure game based on the Ghostbusters media franchise. 

Many of the principal cast members from the films were involved in the game's production. Each of the actors who portrayed the Ghostbusters in the films (Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis, Bill Murray, and Ernie Hudson) lent their voices and likenesses to the in-game characters. Aykroyd and Ramis, who wrote the films, also aided in script doctoring for the game...Ghostbusters: The Video Game also contains the soundtrack from the original Ghostbusters film along with various characters, locations, and props featured in the films.  Ghostbusters creator Dan Aykroyd has said, "This is essentially the third movie."
