Favorite Ghostbusters Reference

Now, due to the large amount of GB fans in the entertainment biz, there have been dozens of GB references. From Rocko's Modern Life to Will Smith in “Wild Wild West” (the song was cool) there are tons. My fave was probably on the Family Guy, where Peter mentions his highschool job was a Ghostbuster, and he is shown bustin Patrick Swazee and asking Demi Moore for $18.75 What do you guys think?

That's a tough question. There are so many good ones. wink
The Rocko's Modern Life thing was very cool, and I especially enjoyed the reference in Will Smith's WWW theme, but the ALF reference was just cruel.
Hmm…my favorite is probably the Will Smith thing, but I'll be thinking about it.

If i knew all of them i would probably be able to tell ya…hmm, maybe we should have a section on GBN that list references about ghostbusters like on the Friday the 13th site. On it, they got a section for F13 references in music, songs, tv and movies, and misc. references. Chad, how bout adding a thing like that to GBN? im gonna post this in site suggestions. What do yall think? good idea?

Oh yeah, I totally forgot about Dan being in Casper.
“Who ya gonna call? Somebody else!” smile
That's definitely my favorite.

I would have to agree with d_osborn. That was pretty terrible.

Yeah, the Casper one sucked…
now then: this ref. may not be a GB one exactly… but it reminded me of GB
In Star Trek: Voyager (No, I'm not a trekky) Captain Janeway walks up to an elevator on board the starship, the doors open and Q pops out asking, “Going up?”
Janeway responds with “I'll take the next one”.

Perhaps I'm looking to far into it…but I though it was pretty good.

Digimon had one too if ya can believe it yikes
It was just “Who ya gonna call”, but still…smile

The Casper one was fun, but we all knew he'd of kicked their asses. No mention of the Critic ones? You know, Ghostchasers,with a hundred foot Ed Cotch.
