I unironically dressed like the Ghostbusters, had a proton pack etc. I don't expect 2000s kids to understand that was a thing.

I hate stranger things, but come on.

I was born in the 80's and I wore my proton pack and Ghostbusters gear around all the time and so did my cousins when we were playing, so go get your fucking shinebox and stand on it to suck your dads dicks, shortpants.

If you didn't rock Ghostbusters gear and the He-Man sword and shield or the Sword of Omens then you don't know SHIT about growing up in the 80's.

Ghostbusters wasn't really geared towards kids, it just so happens kids loved it so they started marketing it to them. That's why GB2 sucks.

i had a proton pack toy and i dont think i even saw ghostbusters

>>79173078
Yep

>>79173098
I had a kick ass Burgerking meal deal when GB2 came out. Ghost in a can, which I kept for years and never opened, then when I finally did nothing happened.

Born in 1982. Used to wear my he-man sword everywhere I went, pull it out and yell, "by the power of greyskull" all the time

>>79172914
When the movie came out you couldn't buy toy proton packs.

So i made my own with carboard boxes for the pack. string for the straps and another string from the carbioard box to the "blaster" which was a stormtrooper blaster that i painted black. I was 7 at the time.

i had the sword of omens and lion-os claw shield.

ghostbusters was super cool, but having toys of them was kinda gay, you know?

My dad built me a plastic proton pack for Halloween 1984 and I had a little jumpsuit my mom sewed my name on too (it was blue but whatever). OP you are unequivocally wrong as hell.

>>79173143
Same here. There are pictures of me on Christmas morning riding a rocking tiger like He-Man's with his sword and shield screaming like a crazy person then pictures of me laying in bed with the sword and shield still in my hands. I had all the action figures too. I heard they're worth some hefty shekels now but I threw them out decades ago.

Not true. My mother used to dress me as a ghostbuster every Halloween from 1981 to 1989. The name of my mother? Leslie Jones.

i was born in 84.

kids didn't give that much of a shit about the film, but the cartoon was huge.

It's everything. We're at peak every single movie is a sequel/reboot/adaptation (I'm not saying this was nonexistent in the 80s, but occasionally somebody did make a film like no one had ever seen before)

And all of the best selling video game franchises right now are the same ones that were the best sellers in the '00s - the new Halo, the new Grand Theft Auto, the new Battlefield, the new Call of Duty. The only exception is Nintendo, who are daring enough to keep making the same fucking franchises for 30 consecutive years instead of 10.

I was gonna complain that they didn't use the official toy backpack, but it came out with the later 86 cartoon, not in time for the following couple of Halloweens.

Seems plenty of kids did this.

https://2warpstoneptune.com/2013/10/14/halloween-1984-the-ghostbusters/

> The costumes were built with a pattern that had come out during that year for costumes. The backpacks were simply spray-painted cardboard boxes with shoulder straps. However, a special opening at the top allowed people to drop candy inside, so we could have theoretically mopped up some serious candy because the boxes could hold a lot. While we never got a photo of the rear of the backpacks, my brother designed the outside with all sorts of hoses and accouterments so it would have a “wow” factor that made it look very fancy and techie. The Uzis were just the standard toy gun from K-Mart that you could buy at the time. Through standard rubber hoses, they were then attached to the backpack.

no, because E.T. came out the week before, and everyone and their mother came out and are talking about the scifi lite autistic spacebaby and his love of a candy manufactured for the movie

no time to see the thing, or blade runner, you gotta go see the summer blockbuster everyone is talking about, but hey, at least its scifi right?

But that's the wrong Ghostbusters...

>>79175116
the new ghostbusters came out?

>>79172138
What you're thinking, OP, is more like no one ever dressed their kids in GOOD Ghostbuster costumes in the 80s.

A bunch of people in this thread are refuting you by saying they did, but I was alive back then and I can tell that really not a lot of people dressed up like them. Most kids in the 80s just wore shitty generic Halloween costumes. Basically zero stores ever sold pre-made pop culture costumes, so your mom would have had to go find the jumpsuit, paint some proton pack, and all that shit. That just didn't happen that much.

Ghostbusters was fucking huge for like a three year period, though, so people definitely dressed up.

>>79172598
They are going to Baltimore

>>79175116
>that cardboard background.

Did they make it look like an SNL skit on purpose?

>>79175512
>no one ever dressed their kids in GOOD Ghostbuster costumes in the 80

that's what struck me as odd. Those costumes look way too good to be anything slapped together by kids of working class families or their parents. It looks more like a decent cos-play than a normal Halloween costume

>>79172138
I have no problem with them dressing up as ghostbusters, I'm sure that happened somewhere. What tickles my autism is that they're wearing pretty much movie ready replicas and not pieced together tin foil and cardboard costumes

>>79172138

But like the >>79176110 said
It's better to form your own opinion
Regardless here is something to take.

pic related is a great review on Stranger Things that I agree with but so you guys won't shit all over me, like the last guy who posted it, I'll post some of my own little notes on why I hated it.

>lazy intro I could probably make in ms paint
>the intro music is also the same, lazy synth to be "so retro"
>one of the biggest problems was revealing all mystery in first two episodes. so all we did was follow around these boring kids while we already knew everything
>kids couldnt act very much apart from main one, but that's to be somewhat expected
>Ryder I thought also did an awful job, but it just might of been that I hated her character
>guns don't hurt monster, yet a skinny loser with a bat hurts monster
>super lame monster design
>bad cgi
>ugly colors
>wanted to be twin peaks mystery wise and failed [citation needed]
>netflix

Just some quick thoughts, if I thought hard about it I'm sure I could bring up some better points.

You had to improvise. They didn't sell off the rack costumes. You bought the patch and put it on something like an old trench coat. Then you got some old vacuum hose and taped it to a backpack.

>>79172543
There's a big difference between dressing like a ghostbuster for halloween and dressing like a ghostbuster to school.

>>79176828

Holy fuck please be trolling.

Remember the 80s?

>>79176856
he's right though. You know who dressed up for halloween for school? retards. Notice no one else is dressed up.

>>79173021
This. The movie only had t-shirts and iron on patches. It's like they had missed every lesson of Star Wars merchandising. My friend's younger brother had every fucking ghostbusters toy because he was an autistic little kid when the cartoon came out.

summarize 1st season for me, i started rewinding after 100th smart 80s reference, i.e. at episode 2.

>>79175512
>Ghostbusters was fucking huge for like a three year period
It wasn't though. It was liked and shit, but not in such a grand fashion as it is now. Nobody went crazy because of Ghostbusters and nobody thought it would be the hallmark pop culture thing that it is now in retrospect

>>79176990

I was 5 at the time.
Most kids had a Tshirt that summer. Even the neighborhood teenagers would wear them.

>>79177777

>>79177676
yes. First several years of school kids would wear costumes to school.
It was fun, and if you had a cool costume, like a good home made ghost busters set up, you where the coolest kid for a day.
It was great
At least in the 80s and 90s we did
Maybe the kids today dress up as YouTube queens, idk

>>79178134
>Yeah. At younger ages definitely, but they're right at an age where they'll be called nerds for doing it.

Can confirm. No one 10 and above would wear a costume. This was true when I was a kid and it's as true as today (I'm a teacher).

>>79178134
They're only supposed to be 11 or 12 tops, so it's not THAT outlandish for them to still wear costumes to school. Besides, they're supposed to be the nerdy kids anyway. They play DnD and get picked on by popular kids. How do you not pick up on that?

>>79172138

Ew. What are you doing on this edge-lord site? Grow up.

Was born in '80, dressed as a ghostbuster for Halloween in 1985 and 1986. By 87, it was all Ninja Turtles.

>>79178549
Aww, you sound upset little cunt.

Life must be very hard for you.

>>79176412
there is some truth to what you say. The question then is: is there room for horror in the 21st century? we are living in a horrific historical point, yet wasn't that the complaint of everybody? even back in the 80s.
And waht was really that boom of horror in the 80s?
It was the fear of the u.s. in front of the unknown: the characters are growing up in typical towns (the common man, the central figure of the american dream, his life now the vehicle of the story) and they face the unknown, the terrible dangers of something not confronted in the past, find its weaknesses and with their ingenuity and wit exploit them and win. Moral: the american dream finds a way to prevail.

>>79178997
I don't teach the younger kids that often but they don't seem to pick on one another. Bullying tends to start at around 5th grade, after they stopped wearing costumes. It's usually about money, looks, or intelligence.

A first grade girl can call herself fat without a problem but an eight grade girl will burst into tears if she is called fat even if it was a non-serious joke.

TMNT where not a thing till like 87/88 and neither where other groups of heroes. I mean, there where no thundercats, no power rangers, no nothing... and even with Eleven they would have fell short for a D&D party though i honestly would have preferred it.

Would have been a little more obscure and it makes perfect sense for kids that play role games and have a friend trapped on another dimension.
