That's right. It's not politically correct, I have decided. Ghosts are an ethnic group too. They deserve rights. And then we get Bill Murray and crew acting as a cross between the S.S and the Ku Klux Klan, and persecuting this minority group.

Let us not forget, ghosts have not the technical prowess to operate those traps the Oppresive Clan use to supress them. They all get chucked in that big tank back at Ghostbuster HQ. It's brutal, I tell you.

And, also, Slimer! What the hell is he about? Judas, that's what. He betrays his class and race to work with the quasi-Nazi Busters.
He's the worse of the lot, I tell you.

This filth should be banned from our T.Vs. It's not like we have Blackbusters, or Arabbusters....Oh, wait..

Bet Dubya loves Ghostbusters.

Ha ha, yeah I remember this. Kerazy. Didn't "Venkman" have blue hair? The Simpsons clearly ripped him off for the Marge character - they should sue to the max!

which ever film had the pink goo pouring out of everywhere was the best.

apparently the guy who made the song ghostbusters was bought out of his contract, because the song was too popular!

work that one out if you can.

You obviously didn't see the short-lived Extreme Ghostbusters cartoon. The only thing 'extreme' about it was the level of political correctness. They had one in a wheelchair for cryin' out loud. Now, I'm not trying to be dismissive here or anything, but surely someone in a wheelchair wouldn't actually be that good at fighting ghosts? It'd be like Manchester United putting a thalomide alongside Wes Brown 'just to PC up the team'.

Well, I can see why you'd think that... What've you been up to since the end of Ghostbusters 2?
