Line 10:
** And ''Max von Sydow'' is the voice of Vigo in the second film as well as the game.

* [[Homage]]: Harold Ramis based his character, Dr. Egon Spengler, on two people he knew when he was younger, and adapted their names into that of the character. Oswald Spengler was a history and philosophy teacher he admired, while Egon Donsbach was a foreign exchange student he knew in high school.▼
* [[I Am Not Spock]]: According to the DVD commentary, the first movie ruined William Atherton's life, what with random people yelling "Hey, dickless!" at him on the streets and all...
* [[One of Us]]: Ray in the cartoon. He's very into cartoons and superhero comic books.

* [[What Could Have Been]]: For a great movie, ''Ghostbusters'' varies tremendously from its original concept. Aykroyd's original script called for multiple groups of ghostbusters who traveled through time and fought ghosts in different dimensions. This idea was rejected as technically unfeasible in 1985; supposedly, the special effects would have cost over $300 million. Ivan Reitman re-purposed the script as a "going into business" story to make it more accessible to audiences.
** Many actors were switched out or not intended as their original performers.
