Ghostbusters
27 maj 2024 |
95 min
A specter of a script! A lead prone to ghosting! A soul-wrenching schedule! This week, Chris & Lizzie cross the streams with 1984’s supernatural success story, Ghostbusters. Learn how a cabal of Canadian comedians created an American classic and how John Belushi haunted the film more literally than you may know.
*CORRECTIONS:
*Chris incorrectly stated that Gremlins was the first film to receive a PG-13 rating. Though it helped prompt the invention of the PG-13 rating (created on July 1, 1984), Gremlins was given a PG rating. The first film to receive this new designation was Red Dawn, released in August of 1984.
*Lyndsey Buckingham caught some undeserved strays in this episode - he'd actually recently written Holiday Road for National Lampoon's Vacation and made quite a bit of sense as Reitman's choice to write the Ghostbusters theme.

83 min
This week, Faye Dunaway and Roman Polanski square off in one of the messiest on-set feuds of all time.

Special guest Paul Scheer (Unspooled, How Did This Get Made) joins Lizzie & Chris to discuss the insane making of the 1974 Jack Nicholson classic, and the complicated legacy it leaves behind.
Check out Paul's memoir, Joyful Recollections of Trauma.

*CORRECTIONS:
*"Weta" is not the nickname of the many species of New Zealand giant crickets but rather their common name, stemming from the Maori word "Wētā".
*Viggo Mortensen used Super Glue, not gum, to re-attach his chipped tooth during filming (specifically Hot Stuff Super T Medium Instant CA Glue - 1oz HST-7)
*Chris referred to second-unit director Geoff Murphy as a young director, he was, in fact, one of the oldest directors on set (and quite well known in New Zealand for the road show "Good Bye Pork Pie").
*According to Weta employee Raymond Massa the Gothmog mask (designed by Bill Hunt) was not designed to look like Harvey Weinstein. Rather, there was a pull-over mask used for background orcs that resembled Weinstein.

*CORRECTIONS:
David Snyder was not the production designer of 'Blade Runner', he was the art director. The production designer of that incredible film was Lawrence G. Paull.
Chris mistakenly states that the 2000 film 'Wonder Boys' starred Topher Grace - it did not, but rather featured Tobey Maguire.
