    Another fun fact about Ghostbusters, Winston was supposed to be in the entire film and not just show up in the second half of the film. But when Eddie Murphy turned it down they pretty much minimized the role.
    Also the reason Eddie Murphy turned down the role in Ghostbusters was because he was already obligated to a little known film that came out the same year as Ghostbusters.... Beverly Hills Cop. So if Eddie Murphy would have tooken the job to be Winston in Ghostbusters we probably wouldn't have got you iconic character Axel Foley in Beverly Hills Cop.
    Super dope connection with the two iconic films.

    Early draft Ghost Smashers was written for Akroyd, Belushi and Murphy. Ramis turned Murphy's character into his character when Murphy turned down the role. The character Winsston was added in the writing of the shooting script because Akroyd wanted to keep diversity in the film, so Winston was not exactly Eddie Murphy's part. However his lines were mostly the Murphy lines Ramis knew were outside his Egon's personality.

    Honorable mention to a favorite of mine: "The Ghost Breakers" (1940). Starring Bob Hope, who called it a favorite of his, because he got to be heroic instead of a coward. Based on the play "The Ghost Breaker", which was first a silent film in 1914, and 1922. It was such a hit it inspired many "Ghost" films. (Was even remade by Martin & Lewis ("Scared Stiff" (1953) with a Bob Hope cameo.) Dan Aykroyd has named it as one of his "Ghostbusters" inspirations.
    As always, thank you so very much for the video.

    John Belushi died while Dan Akroyd was writing a line for Venkman. Now four days later as my mother is in labor with me he’s buried. The next day (my birthday) the front cover of the newspaper shows Bill Murray laying a flower on his casket. Yeah it’s a famous picture
