LonesomeGhost's Profile - Fans

About: I've been a GB fan since day one. I've been into every incarnation of the franchise, live & animated. People can say it's so old, it's dead, blah-blah-blah ... we still see reference to it on TV shows nearly every week. You check ANY Karaoke system in the USA, and you WILL find "Ghostbusters" in the rotation, and while you're singng, point to the audience when you say "who ya gonna call?" and see how loudly they shout back the correct reply.

Favorite Movies: Anything Disney, The Poseidon Adventure, Ghostbusters! (GB 2 was great, except no one, including Annie Potts, wanted to see the nerd slobbering all over Janine! He worked in the first film, but he had no place in the sequel. We need GB 3 so Egon & Janine could finally get married just to get the visual of Tully on top of her out of our minds). Back To the Future & Indiana Jones series. Sci-fi, horror & fantasy flicks, esp. werewolves, all Nightmare on Elm St. The Star Trek movies rock & I love the whole Star Wars franchise. Old movies & musicals, Danny Kaye is my fave. Fred Astaire & Gene Kelly were close 2nds. Though in my opinion, the single greatest American musical is The Wizard of Oz. Rocky Horror Picture Show & Shock Treatment, The Forbidden Zone, Kentucky Fried Movie, Tunnel Vision, The Groove Tube, Elephant Parts, The Magic Christian, The Incredible Mr. Limpet, Gay Purr-ee, Animalympics, Hitchhiker's Guide To the Galaxy ...

Favorite Music: '70s, '80s, '90s Pop, rock, metal, alternative, soundtracks. I like lots of music, from Barry Manilow to Ozzy Osbourne, Queen, Def Leppard, Tears For Fears, Kelly Clarkson, Stray Cats, Men At Work, Jim Croce, Dan Fogelberg, Bertie Higgins, Rupert Holmes, Billy Joel, Ray Stevens, Elton John, Tim Curry, Danny Elfman, John Williams, The B52's, Alice Cooper, Twisted Sister, etc. I love novelty songs & parodies, and seriously miss the Dr. Demento Show, which thanks to Gene Autry hasn't been on the L.A. airwaves in years, even though it's broadcast from Culver City. So if anyone finds out that the show has been picked up on L.A. radio, please let me know!

Favorite TV Shows: Fave shows: Buffy the Vampire Slayer & Angel, How I Met Your Mother, Bones, Surface, I Love Lucy, M*A*S*H*, Frasier, Quantum Leap, Malcolm in the Middle, F-Troop, V, Columbo, The Rockford Files, Bewitched, I Dream of Genie, The Addams Family, The Munsters, Queer Duck, The Simpsons, Family Guy, Futurama, American Dad, King of the Hill, South Park, Fractured Flickers, Monty Python's Flying Circus, The Twilight Zone, Keeping Up Appearances, As Time Goes By, People's Court, Saturday Night Live, Kids in the Hall, Mad TV, almost any animation-shorts, series & specials. I really miss Movie Macabre with Elvira, Mistress of the Dark. Best TV movie: The Langoliers-an excellent adaptation of the Stephen King novel with a performance by Bronson Pinchot that blew me away; Craig Toomy is a very complex and hard to define character, but he nailed it perfectly. Who would have known Balki had it in him?

Favorite Books: How To Be Like Walt, Walt Disney-an American Original, the Elfquest series, the Hitchhiker's Guide To the Galaxy series, the Basil of Baker Street series (the books that the Disney movie The Great Mouse Detective is based on), comic books (especially PLOP! Disney and 60s sitcoms)... Ooh! I forgot Erma Bombeck! How could I? Forgive me, Erma! I still quote her wit and wisdom, rest her soul.

Interests: Just about anything that won't get me in trouble.
