Who else saw this in theaters?

I did! I was 13 years old and saw it with my family. I loved it, and afterwards I brought the soundtrack on cassette. I also collected clippings from the newspapers and such, I didn't get much, but what I got I thought was great.

Now fast forward 25 years later, and my youngest daughter loves this movie. Last year at Dragon Con, I met Ernie Hudson (what a very nice gentleman), and got the chance to have his autograph along with 2 pictures! Would love a 3rd movie, but at least we have the two. :)

I saw this with my little sister about a week after it was released at the UA Northpark 10 in Ridgeland, MS.

Saw it in theatres. I remember kids saying "go back for the packs". And then at the end credits my mom wanted to leave. My dad wanted to stay and leave me to jam out to the ray parker song. Then it went into the rap stuff and my dad was like " Let's go".

I'm not hostile against poor people. I'm hostile against bums and winos.

I saw it opening day and have been in love with it ever since. Kinda crazy story is that they tore down the theater in which I saw the film (saw it in 1989 and they tore it down in 1999) and a friend of mine contacted the manager before they leveled it, when they were throwing away all their stuff and because he collects movie memorabilia, and he managed to pull the one-sheet for GB2 that the theater had sitting rolled up in their storage for a decade. He gave it to me for my birthday that year. The manager informed my friend that their theater had only been given ONE copy of the poster in their kit (he even had the order inventory receipt, which I also received) and it was the very one hanging in the lightbox outside the front doors of the theater that I was lined up beside on opening day in 1989. So, in a strange turn of events, I ended up with the EXACT same one-sheet that I had been standing under just over a decade earlier. I remember looking at the thing and wondering what those strange things on Winston and Ray's back were and loving that the ghost was making the 2 with his fingers. Funny what you remember. What a strange way things work out. It's framed and hanging in my living room, one of my most valued GB pieces.

My brother and I went with two family friends to see it at a second run theater while the mom's wanted to hang out on their own. I was 9 at the time, but my brother was 12, and I think one of the family friends was 13. We went to see a twilight showing, and because we lived in a safe area, and the theater was only a mile away from the house, we walked home, part of the way through this creepy old park. Not the best idea, since the movie already spooked me a bit (can't remember why, but I was always a scaredy cat). Since it was with my brother and the family friends were also boys, they teased me so much for that. Thankfully, none of them remember anymore, and I'm not about to remind them.

"Oh my God! You put a living room where the crack den used to be!"

I was 10, saw it with my aunt and then we went out for Ghostbusters "Slime" Sundaes at Hardee's.

I saw it when I was 9. I was a big fan of the first one and was really looking forward to it. I remember the morning of the day I was going to see it I was sitting out in my treehouse with a friend who had seen it the night before and he was telling me that it wasn't very good. So I was prepared for it to be bad, but I loved it.

See you guys at the 10 year prison reunion - Ben Richards

I saw it at the drive-in 2 times. First time on opening day. I got sick so we got home before the movie started. We went back and this time i watched it. I can't remember what the second movie was. A Pink Panther movie maybe.

I remember that they showed a short cartoon before Ghostbusters in french it was called "L'île noir" translated word for word would be "The black island"


I too had the soundtrack on LP. I still own the Lp. I since bought it on cd off ebay. Is it available on itunes now. Had some of the trading cards too. I played a lot with the real ghostbusters action figures. I now own the original 35mm teaser and 35mm trailer that were showed in theater to advertise this movie
