Alot of you state that the original name for Ghostbusters was Ghostsmashers. But did you know that during production the name Ghostbusters was never finalized untill just about the end of shooting. Its took so long in fact that they were planing on calling it Ghoststoppers.
Something else I found out. The original design for the GB uniform (this is what is on the story boards) was that all the GBs wear some sort of Helmet.
Just thought you might want to know that.

I knew that about the helmets…

It's on da DVD! Right?

Yes. It IS on the DVD. They also had two guns instead of one, and the proton streams were going to be more lazery and Star Wars-ish until they got rubberfied.

Where on the DVD? The Special effects interview?

yeah, it's all in making ghostbusters. the neutrona wands were supposed to be a lot smaller, and also mounted on their hands or fingers. i think their uniforms were supposed to be blue (???) might be wrong about that, though. also, the scene at the firehouse where we see the ghostbusters sign being hung was shot twice, with the seperate names.
