My Favorite Ghostbusters Quote:
Ghost: Are you a God?
Ray: uh, no.
Ghost: Then Die!
Venkman: Ray, when someone asks you if you're a god, you say Yes!
(fuzzy memory, think that's about right)

I thought it was Winston Zeddemore who says that last line...

So do I. But never mind, eh?
A favourite quote:
STANTZ:... Because Dickless here [Walter Peck] shut off our containment unit.
MAYOR (To Peck): Is this true?
VENKMAN: Yes, your honour, this man has no dick.
Well, it made me chuckle.

Vulgar, but also very funny.
Probably was Winston who said the last bit, but it's been so long since I've seen the movie. Probably didn't get the quote exactly right either, but that was the gist.

How about:
Venkman: I'm fuzzy on the whole good/bad thing. What do you mean "bad"?
Egon: Try to imagine all life as you know it stopping instantaneously and every molecule in your body exploding at the speed of light.
Ray: Total protonic reversal.
Venkman: That's bad. Okay. Alright, important safety tip, thanks Egon.
I always liked that one.
Oh, and in pedant's corner, Zuul is not Babylonian, but Sumerian (I think almost that exact line is in the film somewhere actually), and is merely the minion of Gozer the Gozerian (who is 'very big in Sumeria').
On which subject:
Ray: Gozer the Gozerian: good evening. As a duly designated representative of the City, County and State of New York, I order you to cease any and all supernatural activities and return forthwith to your place of origin or to the nearest convenient parallel dimension.
Venkman: Thanks Ray; that oughta do it.
(Or something like that).
The Prophet.

Ray: Ugly looking Spud, ain't he?
Venkman: Ray, I think he heard you.
Winston: I love this town!
Winston: I have seen shit that will turn you white!
Librarian: I had an uncle who thought he was St. Jerome.
Ray: It just popped in there.
Venkman: So, she's a dog.
Bets bit of the film for me is Venkman's famous dance around the fountain after meeting Dana after rehearsals. Love that scene and the music.
Key: Complain about this post
