The greatness of this scene is that it emphasizes the undercurrents of unease about what was going to happen at the building. No one knew what was going on, but everyone WAS afraid of what might be coming. And the other thing that made it great, was ECTO-1 being surrounded and escorted by the police. It was like the Ghostbusters were finally being accepted and legitimized by the city, and that the city was in its own way supporting them because of what they stood for, and what they were about to do.
Too bad by the second movie they got sued into near oblivion by special interest groups for things out of their control. It took Ghostbusters 2 and the slime to finally get them back into the good graces of the city.
Takes me back to being a teenager in the 80's when I first saw the movie at the odeon ! Just like seeing rocky and we waited outside for hours in a queue to see a film ! Love retro and classic 80's movies and their soundtracks! 👍
I just noticed......@4:23 the way Ray is explaining the situation to Pete. Pete looks at him, then looks away. But the look on his face gives the impression he couldn't care less. His body language again @ 5:01......its like he couldn't give a damn, the look on his face. Was this just Pete's character, or was Bill Murray unhappy haha! EDIT: On doing some reading up, "One of the main stars of the film, the excellent Bill Murray, was unhappy with the finished film as he felt the effects had taken over and taken much of the emphasis away from the main characters."
It boggles my mind that the scene with the street coming apart is all a life-size set. That whole bit was an actual length of street that they built with hydraulics under the moving chunks. Amazing stuff!
I love both movies!. Omg its my childhood! i remember when i watch on tv in midle of 90s both ghosbusters and real ghostbuster (cartoon) and........ man i miss those days. New ghostbusters movie (with womens) its so bad!. I mean i understand they want make movie for new people who don t watch old parts but its realy bad for me as original ghosbusters fan.
Do you feel a sense of dread in your basement or attic, have you ever seen a Spook, specter or ghost, if yes then don't wait another minute, call the ghostbusters, we will believe you.
As a kid, I used to love the Ecto 1A. But now as an adult, I notice how too flashy (lights, stickers, signs) it is compared to the Ecto 1. I now prefer the simpler Ecto 1. That's kind of the problem with Ghostbusters 2. It's too flashy compared to the simpler Ghostbusters 1.
When the street opens and the Ghostbusters come out, I get goosebumps every time. Hollywood is having a difficult time capturing that feeling in their films today.
Funny how attention spans have changed. Ghostbusters was my favourite movie growing up as a kid in the early 90s and I thought this montage was so cool because they had a police escort with the army. Then a police car on a hydraulic lift rolls down a slight hill. Coolest thing ever. Now you go to movies and see ginormous explosions and literally everything imaginable with CGI and I just yawn at it.
I always loved the characters, the music, just everything. But the thing that gives me the most nostalgia is the Echo-1's Siren. It's so Distinctive and Iconic that even in the escort with Police Cars or Ambulances you can still hear Echo-1. Am I the only one that thinks this?
@@Squicx you might say many things about Venkman but he is the heart of the GB just as Ray is. He was the first to shoot his proton pack in the suicide attack on Gozer and also showed time in the cartoon series too how he would die in the line of fire for his family
The underdogs always win in this movie, that's why it feels so good to watch Ghostbusters 2, it's like our saviors are back to save us all from evil and destruction.
Notice how everyone's respective religion Catholic & Judaism alike has come together in this classic movie as the Ghostbusters save classic New York City from the Apocalypse. Best movie ever made.👏🏾👍🏾😎💜
I like that Peter in the first one was hamming it up to the crowd but in the 2nd one there’s a baby in danger and he’s all business. Maybe that’s just my head cannon lol
I'm not sure if it's in the actual song, but that vocal reverb effect at 0:33 with a shot of the dark clouds coming from the building kind of has this ominous undertone I always liked. The song is upbeat with everyone cheering, but that small moment subtley points out the danger they're heading into isn't to be underestimated.
I don't mean to be a party pooper, but that was most likely the National Guard, which in real life, get called in during times of extreme emergency (examples are natural disasters like torandos and floods, as well as giant riots where the police cannot handle it on their own) and judging by the events that take place during the "saving the day" seen, they made the right call in sending the National Guard in
also the military may need to support the ghostbusters in fighting esp if they have weird huge beings etc which might need tank fire etc, plus its the 80's when you have the armed forces assisting
I swear, when that street came to life it was like, now do you believe in ghosts? What’s sad is the part 3 will pick up 30 years after the last ghost sighting so it will appear to many as a legend.
Cost 25-30 million to make. Made about 300 million at the box office. One of the biggest hits of 1984 and still has better special effects then anything made today in my opinion.
I hope he at least reuses the saving the day song when the inevitable scene of the classic ghostbusters show up when it's looking like the kids are about to lose
0:47 -- The redhead in the suit cracks me up every time. In fact, this movie is full of extras just like him -- all with the mentality of "Hey, everybody! Look at me! I'm acting!"
Bill has always made me think he was the awkward funny guy ...like sometimes what he says is uber funny but other times its like hes just trying to be the funny one with dry emotionless humor....Bill Murray is Darlene From Roseanne
I can’t think of many movies that are flawless, but this is one of them. It’s been called “lightning in a bottle”. Ghostbusters was an absolute phenomenon.
The problem I always had with Ghostbusters 2 is that, in general terms, the plot is similar to that of the first movie: Something harasses Dana Barrett, we have to watch them get started/restarted as a business, their initial scene fighting ghosts as a team does not include Winston, they run afoul did some evil government bureaucrat who has them thrown in jail, bad stuff goes down, the (same) mayor demands someone get the Ghostbusters, there is a giant thing walking down the streets of New York and a fight with an interdimensional being. The only original part of Ghostbusters 2 was the baby

One of the best entrance's in movie history!
Being a little kid and wanting to be Pete Venkman. Oh the nostalgia
Growing up and realizing how f*cking sexy Bill Murray was in this movie! :)
Me too!
Really? I always wanted to be Egon
Well there's so many holes in first avenue, we really didn't think anyone would notice
Great peter venckman!

Love this comment. Describes it perfectly.

Pure gold entrance with amazing soundtrack from the brothers who made this .. perfect for the busters saving New York! Excellent 👍

Absolutely 😁💯
The best "shit's about to get serious" scene in movie history...
Rabbis make it serious
"Shit just got real".
I never had a way of describing these type of scenes but they've always been my favorite
This is how I'm describing them from now on😂
Iceberg🤣
Pete soaking up the glory with the crowd and Ray vicariously enjoying it while trying to get him to focus, pure gold.
Doesn’t get better than this. New York City, people cheering on the ghostbusters, and killer soundtrack
4:08 - 5:11 Bobby Brown "on our own" song was a perfectly fit for that scene really badass
The way the mayor says “somebody get me the ghostbusters” is just perfect.
Man, this movie had such a massive impact on me as a kid. Still brings up the same feelings now. Crazy!
Amen
"On Our Own" is such a feel good song, i bought movie last year after hearing that song

Thank you!

Egon was my favorite character he was smart and about that action
He rolled in his grave during 2016.
He'll weep for joy in 2020.
When ecto drove up in front of the museum i got chills 😍

mrFalloutFan95 its a great song.
Hell yeah
"WE BELIEVE YOU"
Oh damn me too! For bkth films
I don't know about anyone else, but 4:08-4:30 always had me hyped as hell watching this movie.
Same here man
Legit butterflies watching this scene everytime. You know you did well when you view the Ghostbusters as heroes

It’s that Bobby Brown jam
Best scene ever!
The scene when Ecto-1 had the siren and lights on and hits the corner is such amazing filmmaking.
Dan Aykroyd must have thought this was a pleasant change of pace, getting escorted by police instead of hundreds of them chasing him through Chicago.
Hah hah! Nice one 😉😉😉
I don't get it
@@TeddySparkles i dont get it either
@@cameronnichols I think he's referring to The Blues Brothers. Fuckin loved that movie.
This scene shows that in times of trouble or chaos or turmoil there is always hope.
I imagine that's why I'm a fan of Ghostbusters and Batman, they always manage to give hope in chaos.
"And I bet we're the only ones that can do anything about it." "You bet we are!"
All the feels
Goosebumps.
It boggles my mind that the scene with the street coming apart is all a life-size set. That whole bit was an actual length of street that they built with hydraulics under the moving chunks. Amazing stuff!
Looks more realistic than the cgi crap used today.
The original will always be the best....period!!!!
Yes...always be a classic......love this movie... everything is still original
The 1st is definitely the best but 2 is still amazing in my opinion
GB 2 Is the Best.
I love both movies!. Omg its my childhood! i remember when i watch on tv in midle of 90s both ghosbusters and real ghostbuster (cartoon) and........ man i miss those days.

+Joshua Greenslade i agree ghostbusters 2 is the bomb
Do you feel a sense of dread in your basement or attic, have you ever seen a Spook, specter or ghost, if yes then don't wait another minute, call the ghostbusters, we will believe you.
I loved these guys SOOOOO much as a kid and now I am almost 40 and I STILL LOVE THEM!!!!!
Always loved the part at 3:40 when they put their hands together just the way a sports team does before starting the game.

To me, this was the most badass "we are coming to kick ass" scene in the 1980's when I was a kid. Gives me goosebumps every time.

I love seeing the classic 80's NYC police cars in this scene escorting Ecto 1. Such an epic scene
This movie is full of great scenes

You definitely aren't Lying Their
Always loved those two Ghostbusters songs. Classic 80s stuff.
Always will love the sound of the siren from the Ecto 1

If there's no character development (by this time in the movie you've gotten behind these guys) there's no thrill in what happens
The BEST scenes EVER!
I can watch them in repeat all day!
EVERY TIME and I mean EVERY TIME they roll up, it's always badass.
Who came back from see the teaser of the real ghostbusters 3?
You mean Ghostbusters 4?
@@CdrChaos not its ghostbusters 3 cause the 2016 one is a ripoff
James Taylor I meant The Video Game.
@@CdrChaos ooohhhhh oops sorry

In today's movie you'll never find or make a good classic movie like this 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I always loved the characters, the music, just everything. But the thing that gives me the most nostalgia is the Echo-1's Siren. It's so Distinctive and Iconic that even in the escort with Police Cars or Ambulances you can still hear Echo-1. Am I the only one that thinks this?
Nothing more beautiful or hopeful in the world, than to hear that siren in the distance!!!
Nope. Ecto-1 has and forever will has class.
Has anyone noticed how pissed Venkman looks during the whole scene when Louis is explaining what happened to the baby @4:10?
Uh, considering it involved his somewhat girlfriend and a kid he was obviously quite fond of, should anyone be surprised?
Somebody get me the Ghostbusters.
"oh come on theirs always room for jello" I still love that
That 80’s synth 😍😍😍... ‘hello New York’ 😁
You can tell Venkman is genuinely pissed and angry that Vigo took Dana and Oscar, he is not saying a word and he quickly suits up as fast as possible.
proof that he loves both of them with his heart. no matter how sarcastic and bored he may be, he was the first to catch oscar
@@Squicx you might say many things about Venkman but he is the heart of the GB just as Ray is. He was the first to shoot his proton pack in the suicide attack on Gozer and also showed time in the cartoon series too how he would die in the line of fire for his family
@@gorillone86 true stuff right there
Always loved the national guard guys getting all motivated charging and running ! The 42nd division to help the ghostbusters!
The edit of the song that made it into the film was better than the original, it's got more energy.
Those scenes always charge me up! (Only real fans will get the reference) 😎
people hate the ecto 1a, i personally love it.
2:00 Zuul and Vinz are doing it on the roof
On Our Own might possibly be the best "to the rescue" track to play. i'm surprised no Football team ever came out to it.
Hairs on the back of my neck still stand up. Going on 30 years.
The underdogs always win in this movie, that's why it feels so good to watch Ghostbusters 2, it's like our saviors are back to save us all from evil and destruction.
Notice how everyone's respective religion Catholic & Judaism alike has come together in this classic movie as the Ghostbusters save classic New York City from the Apocalypse.

3:23 I always love that part. The emotion
Saving the day is just superior in every way.
I like that Peter in the first one was hamming it up to the crowd but in the 2nd one there’s a baby in danger and he’s all business. Maybe that’s just my head cannon lol
Winston: "And we're the only ones that can do anything about it?" Ray: "You BET we are!" ....all the feels
Damn. Their work number was "JL5-2020."
No area code, and letters in the number. That's super dated. Lol
JL5 on the keypad is just 555...same phone number used is all.of tv and movie land
@@2tonbuick I did learn that recently a few months ago, but the use of letters signifies that it's old.
Well I guess, we're gonna have to take control !!!
This scene jogged so that the Avengers Portal Scene could sprint.

The song is upbeat with everyone cheering, but that small moment subtley points out the danger they're heading into isn't to be underestimated.
Glad I found this comment hidden here, yes couldn't have said it better. It's a great shot and sound that shows the danger looming.
The army shows up to fight ghosts. I love it.
CoLeMaWeSoMe the army was just there to protect the Ghostbusters!
I don't mean to be a party pooper, but that was most likely the National Guard, which in real life, get called in during times of extreme emergency (examples are natural disasters like torandos and floods, as well as giant riots where the police cannot handle it on their own) and judging by the events that take place during the "saving the day" seen, they made the right call in sending the National Guard in

Nah they were heading off to go fight cloverfield.
Among the soldiers was Sgt. Hulka
1:15-1:20 is brilliant music matching!
I just love Ghostbusters!!
4:26 Louis: "You bet we are!" **Shoves the swinging doors open like a saloon doorway, like a boss.**

I swear, when that street came to life it was like, now do you believe in ghosts? What’s sad is the part 3 will pick up 30 years after the last ghost sighting so it will appear to many as a legend.
Fun fact: they only had to shoot this scene once!
Cost 25-30 million to make. Made about 300 million at the box office. One of the biggest hits of 1984 and still has better special effects then anything made today in my opinion.
Hearing ecto 1 siren with the music is perfect
4:59 if someone would do a version of on our own with this pitch that would be nice
First movie was EPIC! E P I C !
Cant wait to see what jason reitman is gonna do for. Ghostbusters 3 in 2020
I hope he at least reuses the saving the day song when the inevitable scene of the classic ghostbusters show up when it's looking like the kids are about to lose
I am 35 years old and still love this movie
Movies and music are dogshit today compared....

The problem I always had with Ghostbusters 2 is that, in general terms, the plot is similar to that of the first movie: Something harasses Dana Barrett, we have to watch them get started/restarted as a business, their initial scene fighting ghosts as a team does not include Winston, they run afoul did some evil government bureaucrat who has them thrown in jail, bad stuff goes down, the (same) mayor demands someone get the Ghostbusters, there is a giant thing walking down the streets of New York and a fight with an interdimensional being.
