Ghostbusters (2016 film)/Trivia


 * Defictionalization: Erin and Abby's book, Ghosts from Our Past: Both Literally and Figuratively: The Study of the Paranormal, is actually available on Amazon.com as a tie-in product.
 * Reboot Cameo: Most of the surviving core cast of the original Ghostbusters make appearances in this film:

 * Dan Aykroyd is a cab driver.
 * Ernie Hudson is the uncle of one of the new Ghostbusters.
 * Annie Potts at the front desk of a hotel.
 * Sigourney Weaver as the mentor of one of the Ghostbusters.
 * The late Harold Ramis appears as a bronze bust outside of Erin's office. The movie is also dedicated to him.
 * Rick Moranis, having retired from show business, declined to take part in the movie, but a reference to Vinz Clortho can be seen in one of the credits scenes as a tip of the hat to him.
 * Slimer makes an appearance, and even turns out to be critical to the plot.
