6 Best Ghostbusters Toys I Had
Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire comes out this week and I was racking my brain to come up with some type of Ghostbusters-themed list. I’ve settled on just going down memory lane in regards to some of the Ghostbusters toys I had as a kid, because I was wild about that stuff! I enjoyed the movies, even the second one, and was big into The Real Ghostbusters cartoon!
There was even one Halloween where my parents made my younger brother a full-on Stay Puft Marshmallow Man costume, which was all puffy and awesome. I would give so much to have a picture of that somewhere. I had a store-bought Egon Spangler costume to go along with him that year, so it was that really cheap, plastic clothing smock and mask with thin, stretchy band around the back. But I had some bonus goodies to make that costume really shine!
Join me after the jump to just admire some awesome Ghostbusters toys and whatnot from over the years.
Read the rest of this entryMovie Trailer Monday!
Good morning, everyone! It’s another Monday, we’ve all gotta get back to work, and I’ve got a couple other movie trailers to share that came along last week. I still enjoy watching movie trailers, though there isn’t too much to look forward to this year, I don’t think…
First up is The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare from Guy Ritchie.
I was excited for this trailer when I first heard of this movie, but the trailer does nothing for me. The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare is a real, historical group from World War II that started pulling crazy spy nonsense on the Nazis. I think it would make a really interesting movie. But this trailer looks like any standard zany action movie, which is a bit disappointing.
Ah well, could still be fun. The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare comes to theaters on April 19.
Next up is the international trailer for Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire. I think this trailer is better than the trailer I showed last week.
This trailer is just a better overall movie trailer. It’s not drowning in nostalgic callbacks, and actually treats the movie like its own movie. I like that much better. I don’t think the Ghostbusters need nostalgia to carry them through a good movie.

Forget Those Other Movie Trailers, Here’s One for Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire
I’m as big a Ghostbusters fan as the next average Joe. I don’t take that fandom to the extreme like some people, but there’s nothing inherently wrong with that. I think these new movies are banking very, very hard on nostalgia, whereas the original was successful without that. Anyway, check out this new trailer for Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire for yourself.
Looks packed to the gills with nostalgia. Like, it’s insane. There is so much god damned nostalgia in this movie. Is it even its own movie?! Yes, there’s a new monster bad guy that doesn’t seem — so far — to have anything to do with Vigo the Carpathian. And the city freezing over is new to the movies. But Walter Peck is apparently mayor. Janine is in uniform. Slimer. They’re quoting the song lyrics. It’s a little too much, even for me.
But I’m not made of stone. Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire comes to theaters on March 22, so in two months!

Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire is On It’s Way
We knew we were getting another Ghostbusters movie, but I had no idea it was this far along. Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire came out with a full-on trailer yesterday, showing off all the returning characters and the new, chilly threat. Looks neat.
I enjoyed Ghostbusters: Afterlife as much as the next person, though probably not as much as other people. It was solid. Turning this into a full on franchise is something that can’t be avoided at this point, so I’m not going to fight it. I like Paul Rudd, I like Carrie Coon, Mckenna Grace was a really fun new character in the last film, and it looks like Patton Oswalt and Kumail Nanjiani are joining the fun. So yeah, I’m all in to see how this next sequel pans out.

I Have Not Watched This Ghostbusters: Afterlife Trailer
Ghostbusters: Afterlife comes out in a couple of weeks and the Powers That Be released a short new trailer yesterday. I’m excited for this film, and normally I love watching trailers, but I have not watched this one. And I advise you to not watch it either. Apparently, it’s full of spoilers. DON’T WATCH THIS TRAILER.
Thankfully, other internet sites who have shared this trailer have watched it and revealed that it’s full of spoilers. So thankfully, I didn’t watch it and I haven’t had anything spoiled. Hopefully the same has happened to you.
Why then, you might ask, did I even bother to share this trailer if I haven’t seen it and don’t want you to see it? Because it’s just a random Tuesday, I need to be at work soon and I gotta put something up, right? I gotta keep the blog churning? Isn’t that how this works?!
Wait…is that…is that not how this works? Could I have elected not to post anything on this random Tuesday and nobody would have cared? That’s good advice, actually….
