Who are you gonna call?

There’s a reason the 1984 Ghostbusters led to a sequel, an animated television series, and a reboot. The original film is so cleverly kooky there’s absolutely nothing not to love about it. Need proof? Just take another look at the Ghostbusters quotes listed above.

Big kudos to Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis, and Rick Moranis (uncredited) for writing such a spectacularly goofy film chock-full of witty quips and semi-believable pseudoscience that we’re still quoting it today, almost 40 years later.

We hope these quotes reminded you just how hilarious the original Ghostbusters movie was.
