Revealing mistake: There's a scene where Dana's building is falling apart and stones and stuff are falling to the street below. One of the huge boulders bounces off a wooden police barricade in the bottom left hand corner of the screen, and then off a person. (01:29:14)
Ghostbusters (1984)
Directed by: Ivan Reitman
Starring: Dan Aykroyd, Bill Murray, Sigourney Weaver, Harold Ramis, Rick Moranis, Ernie Hudson, Annie Potts
Character mistake: When Ray and Winston are driving across the bridge around midnight in the Ectomobile, Ray quotes a verse of scripture claiming to be "Revelation 7:12." What he quotes is actually Revelation 6:12. (01:03:38)
Continuity mistake: During the flying eggs scene, the lettuce on the right changes shape and position between angles. (00:19:20)
Trivia: Director Ivan Reitman performed the demonic voice of Dana/Zuul in the bedroom scene with Peter Venkman.
Trivia: When Peter Venkman mentions the time Egon Spengler tried to drill a hole in his head, Egon replies, "That would have worked if you hadn't stopped me". This line was ad-libbed by Harold Ramis.
Ray Stantz: Where do these stairs go?
Peter Venkman: They go up.
Peter Venkman: Get her?! That was your plan? Get her?!
Ray Stantz: Everything was fine with our system until the power grid was shut off by dickless here.
Walter Peck: They caused an explosion!
Mayor: Is this true?
Peter Venkman: Yes, it's true. This man has no dick.
Question: I heard that Ron Jeremy had a walk on part in this film, does anyone know in which scene he is in?
Question: Why did Gozer disappear after the Ghostbusters fired their Proton Packs at her?
Question: What are the mechanics behind The Ghostbusters Proton Packs? How do they work?
Chosen answer: Theoretically, they are nuclear powered proton colliders. The positively charged energy released by the proton collisions is channeled through the neutrona wands into a manageable beam. This positively charged beam bonds to the negatively charged ectoplasm which ghosts used to manifest. This allows the Ghostbusters to draw them into their traps.
Answer: Ron Jeremy can be seen in the crowd outside the firehouse right after the containment unit is shut off.
