Ghostbusters Interdimensional Crossrip Still Playing with Toys - Troy Benjamin

Ghostbusters Day 2024 has come and passed and, while it was a subdued celebration on the marketing side of things, the love for the franchise has never been stronger. Join Troy and Chris as they talk about the celebratory events that took place on both coasts, why they think the marketing noise was on the quieter side, and what expectations we should all have for Ghostbusters Day moving forward. All that plus your voicemails and a few notable news items!

Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire is now available in your home on VOD, and all the bonus features to go with it! This week on the show, Chris and Troy chat about the deleted scenes, behind the scenes materials, commentary and more. Which deleted scenes would have aided in the final cut of the film? Which were better left on the cutting room floor? Some of our answers may surprise you!

This week on the show, we’re talking about Ghostbusters: Back in Town #2 from Dark Horse Comics, and then diving back into some more Ghostbusters cinematic universe loose ends talk from last week! But this time, we’re armed with a lengthy email from resident J.H. Tobin, Michael Tanaka! Things that he’d like to see explored, stories he thinks are worth telling, and a lot of discussion about where and why some of the extended storytelling could, should, and maybe isn’t happening at the moment. It’s a fun one, don’t miss it! (And we love you, Michael. Don’t change.)

This week on the show, now that we’re four canonical films in, we’re exploring the hidden corners and loose ends of the Ghostbusters storytelling that we’d like to see Ghost Corps explore. From Ray and Egon’s rift, to the time period between Ghostbusters II and that rift occurring and beyond, here are the untold stories that we feel are worthy of being told (and in some cases, the medium we think that they should be presented).

This week on the show, we’re talking about Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire’s score by Dario Marianelli, lack of pop tracks, and then chatting a lot about how the lore and magic of the live-action Ghostbusters world is expanded by this film. First up, Troy and Chris walk through some of their favorite score cues and explore some of the new cues heard in the film. There’s a lot of new avenues explored and great ways of furthering Elmer Bernstein’s original music throughout. Then, the boys talk about Nadeem’s character in the film and what doors he opens moving forward, which then naturally turns to an existential discussion where we talk about what it means to become one with the fabric of the universe. Ready?

The Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire discussion continues this week, along with a little bit of chat about Dark Horse’s Back in Town Issue #1! First up, and right out of the gate, we continue with a little debate on Melody’s origins and discuss the recent Hollywood Reporter interview with Emily Alyn Lind that revealed quite a bit. Then we dive into Back in Town #1 and how it helps bridge that time period between Afterlife and Frozen Empire, plus some. All that and more, plus a few more of your voicemails — and we kept it under an hour! Can you believe it?
