Quotes4

  • Winston Zeddemore: [Powering up his Proton Gun] I love that sound.
  • [the three living Ghostbusters interact with their deceased friend, Egon]
  • Peter Venkman: Had a feeling you'd turn up.
  • Ray Stantz: I'm sorry I didn't believe you.
  • Winston Zeddemore: I should've called. I miss you, my friend.
  • [Egon smiles]
  • Callie: [being cornered by Gozer] Oh, no.
  • [Gozer raises its hands and steadily sends lightning toward Callie and Phoebe, but before it reaches them...]
  • Peter Venkman: [off-screen] Hey, flat-top!
  • [Gozer looks toward the sound of the voice, stopping its attack. Callie and Phoebe look back too as they see Peter Venkman, Ray Stanz, and Winston Zeddemore standing there]
  • Peter Venkman: Have you missed us?
  • Ray Stantz: Gozer the Gozerian! In the name of the county of Summerville, state of Oklahoma, the US Fish and Wildlife Service, all the members of Ducks Unlimited, the Association for the Advancement of Retired Persons, I command you under the National Invasive Species Act to depart this world immediately.
  • Peter Venkman: Bravo.
  • [Gozer growls and stares at them malevolently]
  • Winston Zeddemore: I think she remembers us.
  • Gozer: [approaches them] Are you... a god?
  • Winston Zeddemore: [seeing Ray hesitate] Ray?
  • Peter Venkman: Oh, come on, Ray.
  • Ray Stantz: Yes.
  • Winston Zeddemore: Yeah, we're all gods.
  • Peter Venkman: Yeah, I mean we're all pretty dang special down here. On a personal note: I thought that we had busted up for good. I mean, it wasn't working for me. My friends didn't think so, and I know yours didn't.
  • [Zuul tries to attack, but Gozer signals her to stop]
  • Winston Zeddemore: Okay, playtime's over. Let's toast this muffin.
  • [they get out their proton-wands]
  • Peter Venkman: Light them up.
  • [they activate the wands]
  • Winston Zeddemore: Man, I love that sound.
  • Peter Venkman: On the count of three, go on two. One, two...
  • [they open fire on Gozer, restraining it]
  • Ray Stantz: Yeah, nothing stings like a billion electron volts!
  • [they begin to cross the streams and Gozer leans forward in pain]
  • Callie: Yes!
  • [Gozer grabs hold of the proton streams]
  • Winston Zeddemore: Did you feel that?
  • Ray Stantz: Yeah.
  • Peter Venkman: Uh-oh.
  • [Gozer begins to pry the streams apart]
  • Ray Stantz: She's uncrossing the streams!
  • [Gozer whips the streams back at the Ghostbusters, sending them flying back]
  • Callie: No!
  • Podcast: Are they dead?
  • Ray Stantz: [slowly getting up] I don't remember this job being so painful.
  • Winston Zeddemore: I do.
  • [second half of post-credit scene with Janine and Winston talking at his office]
  • Winston Zeddemore: Egon was the brains. Ray was the heart. Peter just kept it cool.
  • Janine Melnitz: Who were you?
  • Winston Zeddemore: The sex appeal.
  • [both chuckle]
  • Janine Melnitz: You've done very well for yourself. A lot of shelf space.
  • Winston Zeddemore: [cut-scene of him entering the firehouse] See, that's the thing. I don't do it for me. I do it for my kids, and I wanna be example of what's possible.
  • Janine Melnitz: You still covering the rent at Ray's bookshop?
  • Winston Zeddemore: Ray's gonna turn a profit one of these days.
  • Janine Melnitz: I remember the day you came in.
  • Winston Zeddemore: I came in looking for a steady paycheck. But busting ghosts with the guys taught me not to be afraid. That I had the tool and I had the talent. I started this business with one employee. And I've grown it into a thriving global enterprise. I may be a businessman, but I will always be a Ghostbuster.
  • [the Ecto-1 pulls into the firehouse, a red light blinks on a panel in the basement]
