Things You Might Not Know About 'Ghostbusters'As Paul Feig's reboot of Ivan Reitman's classic sci- fi- horror- comedy readies to hit theaters, we're looking back at the film that started it all. DAN AYKROYD FOUND INSPIRATION FOR THE MOVIE IN HIS FAMILY'S HISTORY. Dan Aykroyd grew up surrounded by spiritualists. His great- grandfather, Samuel A. Aykroyd, was a noted nineteenth century psychic investigator who conducted séances at the Aykroyd family farmhouse in eastern Ontario with a medium named Walter Ashurst. This predilection for the paranormal was passed down to Aykroyd’s grandfather, Maurice, who was an engineer for the Bell Telephone Company. Watch Blast Vegas Tube Free.

Maurice allegedly tried to use his know- how to create a high- vibration crystal radio that could contact the spirit world. Dan's father, Peter, kept a sizeable library of books about spooky subjects (including his great grandfather’s séances), which kept ghosts and ghouls in the back of young Aykroyd’s mind. After he left Saturday Night Live in 1.

The Real Ghostbusters is an American animated television series, a spinoff of the 1984 comedy movie Ghostbusters. The series ran from September 13, 1986 to October 5.

American Society of Psychical Research publication, which inspired Ghostbusters. GHOSTBUSTERSCOULD HAVE BEEN MUCH DIFFERENT—AND MUCH BIGGER. Aykroyd found comedic inspiration in films like Bob Hope's The Ghost Breakers, the horror- comedies of Abbott and Costello, and Bowery Boys fare like Spook Busters and Ghost Chasers. He went wild writing his original script, which took place in the future and had a much darker tone.

The actors he had in mind for the three main protagonists were himself, John Belushi, and Eddie Murphy. His concept involved dozens of Ghostbuster groups fighting specters across time and different dimensions. The now- iconic Stay Puft Marshmallow Man—which is in the climax of the finished film—appeared much earlier (on page 2. Ghostbusters would do battle with. Eventual director Ivan Reitman estimated that the first script would have cost up to $3. JOHN BELUSHI STILL APPEARS IN THE FINAL FILM, IN SPIRIT.

Part of the reason Aykroyd had to recontextualize and rethink his idea—other than its implausible potential budget—was the tragic death of his fellow former SNL castmate John Belushi, whom he envisioned as the sarcastic Peter Venkman. The role was later immortalized by Bill Murray, another SNL alum, but the writers still wanted to honor Belushi by somehow involving him in the movie.

When it came time to think up the design for the first ghost the group is commissioned to bust, Aykroyd conceived of a gross- looking, gluttonous, party- guy persona for the apparition as an ironic homage to his friend Belushi. The ghost made it to the screen and was later christened “Slimer.”4. THE MOVIE HAD TO BE MADE IN A VERY SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. Once Aykroyd nailed down the general concept and the narrative of the film (but before he'd penned the final draft), he brought on Ivan Reitman, not only to direct, but also to sell the movie to a major motion picture studio. Reitman had previously directed the popular Bill Murray comedies Meatballs and Stripes—both of which had been co- written by another eventual Ghostbuster, Harold Ramis. Since Reitman had a relationship with Columbia Pictures (which produced Stripes), he approached pragmatic studio head Frank Price with Aykroyd’s outrageous one- sentence pitch—“Ghost janitors in New York”—in May 1. While admittedly skeptical, Price was attracted to the project because the tripartite of comedy geniuses who had agreed to play the leads: Aykroyd, Murray, and Ramis.

Price asked Reitman just how much the outrageous- sounding movie would cost, and the director allegedly threw out a random guesstimate of $3. Price agreed on the budget and the movie with one stipulation—that it must have a firm release in June 1. This was no small detail, considering this gave them only 1.

The rushed production schedule immediately forced Aykroyd, Ramis, and Reitman to retreat to rented houses on Martha’s Vineyard for a marathon three- week writing session to complete the final shooting script. Afterward, they immediately began prepping the shoot and scouting locations. SIGOURNEY WEAVER GAVE A UNIQUE AUDITION.

For the role of Venkman’s headstrong love interest, Dana Barrett, Reitman chose Sigourney Weaver. She was eager to do a comedy after her amazing performance as Ripley in Ridley Scott’s Alien, so she tried something altogether different for her audition. She offered up a wordless scene where she turned into one of the grotesque dogs that do Gozer’s bidding, an act that allegedly involved writhing across the casting couch and loudly snarling at Reitman. The director was impressed—if not a little scared—and she got the part.

THE PART OF LOUIS TULLY WAS ORIGINALLY WRITTEN FOR ANOTHER SECOND CITY ALUM. For the loveable loser- turned whacked- out demon “Keymaster of Gozer” Louis Tully, Aykroyd thought of actor John Candy. The Canadian comedian had previously worked with him in 1.

The Blues Brothers; with Reitman, Ramis, and Murray in Stripes; and for Ramis again in National Lampoon’s Vacation. But Candy envisioned Louis as a stern German man with a thick accent who kept dozens of dogs in his apartment. He also wanted the character rewritten and made into a starring role. Filmmakers preferred the original character that Aykroyd and Reitman had developed, so they gave the role to another member of the Second City troupe, Rick Moranis. The soft- spoken, bespectacled comic brought his own brand of misfit comedy and improv styles to the now- classic character—and he also provided his own wardrobe.

EGON SPENGLER" WAS INSPIRED BY A FRIEND, AN INTELLECTUAL, AND AN UNKNOWN. When trying to come up with the perfect name for his character—who was the brains of the Ghostbusters—co- writer Harold Ramis combined both personal and academic inspirations. Egon” was the first name of Egon Donsbeck, a Hungarian exchange student at Stephen K. Watch Emperor Streaming. Watch Cudowne Lato Online Fandango.

For the "look" of his character, Ramis copied the style of an unknown guy he'd seen on the cover of an abstract architectural journal. He thought the man’s old three- piece tweed suit, wire- rim glasses, and puffed- up hair were perfect for his geeky parapsychologist.

GHOSTBUSTERS IS THOUGHT OF AS A NEW YORK MOVIE, BUT SOME SIMPLE MOVIE MAGIC WENT INTO MAKING ITS VARIOUS LOCATIONS. Getty Images. Come to New York and you can visit some key Ghostbusters locations. The exterior of the fully functioning FDNY Hook & Ladder #8 building at 1.

North Moore Street in Tri. Be. Ca served as the Ghostbusters’ base of operations—definitely not a “demilitarized zone,” as Egon said. The building at 5. Central Park West housed the apartments of Dana Barrett and Louis Tully. The main branch of the New York Public Library at Fifth Avenue and 4. Street is recognizable for the lions guarding its entrance, and Columbia University’s Havemeyer Hall served as the Weaver Hall Department of Psychology building that the guys are kicked out of at the beginning of the movie. Then there’s the legendary restaurant Tavern on the Green, where Louis was attacked by one of Gozer’s dogs.

But none of these places appear exactly as they do onscreen. The interior of the Ghostbusters' firehouse was actually an abandoned fire station in Los Angeles, and the rooftop temple scenes at Dana’s apartment were filmed at a huge set built on Stage 1. Columbia Pictures (large- scale matte paintings were used for long shots). The early library scene where Egon is introduced was in fact filmed at the New York Public Library, but the scene where the three Ghostbusters come across the old librarian ghost in the stacks was actually shot across the country at the Los Angeles Public Library.
