OK, perhaps “Ghostbusters I” withstood the test of time better than “GB II,” but still, the stories are clever and original, the dialog is hilarious, the characters zing with life, and the entire viewing experience is nothing but good solid cinematic fun.Īnd so it was with both a sense of anticipation and utter dread that, after revisiting these two films, I shoved into my DVD player what is meant to be the long-awaited third chapter in the “Ghostbusters” film franchise. I popped them in my DVD player and was pleasantly surprised to discover that they’re just as totally awesome as I thought they were two decades ago (back when DVD players didn’t even exist). Over the weekend, I decided to revisit two of my favorite childhood films - “Ghostbusters” (released in 1984) and “Ghostbusters II” (released in 1989).
