'''''[[Ghostbusters:
In 2009, a video game adaptation was released, written and performed by the original casts, that acts as a third story. Two years after the second movie, the Ghostbusters are doing well. The new mayor rode into office on pro-Ghostbusting legislation: New York directly pays the Ghostbusters for doing their job, and [[Hero Insurance|insures all of their collateral damage]]. In addition, their research on paranormal activity has given them enough cash to develop new technology, which allows them to hire a young intern (the player character) to test it out for them. However, a Gozer exhibit at the local museum triggers a reawakening of the forces unleashed in the first movie...
Line 71 ⟶ 72:
* [[Autobots Rock Out|Autobots, Rock Out!]]: Their theme music alone is good enough for this trope.
* [[Awesome Backpack]]: The proton packs.
* [[Badass Crew]]: A crew of [[Badass Bookworm
* [[Big Bad]]: Gozer in 1, Vigo the Carpathian in 2 and {{spoiler|Ivo Shandor}} in the video game.
* [[Big Damn Heroes]]: Invoked in the first film; as part of their deal with the Mayor to stop what's happening, Venkman manages to wrangle a ''huge'' police / National Guard escort for Ecto-1 as if it was the presidential limo or something, thus making the Ghostbusters look like [[The Cavalry]] to the assembled hordes waiting on for Judgment Day on the streets. Venkman himself milks the moment (and the crowd) for all it's worth.
