Do we think we will get a "Chewie, we're home" moment?

Ray: "Guys, we're home."
Venkman: "Really Ray? You need a girlfriend."

That's been speculated on since the 1st trailer hopefully.

Surely they don't want an avalanche of questions, but Ghost Corps disabled the ability to message them on Facebook.

Just an interesting note.

A couple of years ago I asked if they were hiring. They said no :(

It's not illogical in principle, but this is an area where it makes more sense to consider the business dynamics. If Sony had a streaming service (I mean a real streaming service, not Crackle), it would probably be a much different conversation.

Anyway how about that new shot of the Ecto?

Love that new shot. I recall seeing that building while looking around the streetviews of the mine bridge. It's awesome that they worked it in there. Beautiful footage.

I really, really, really need to see footage of the Ecto-1 racing along with it's lightbars running at some point. It'd be amazing in a trailer, but such a "Superman charging out of the phone booth" moment would likely be better saved for the film.

I'll never get bored of seeing Ecto-1 tearing about the place. 5-year-old me is happy. :)

Roughly around 9:00am Eastern/8:00am Central/6:00am Pacific/2:00pm BST based on the timers.

Things I think we might see:

-more Mini Pufts in a different environment
-closer look at Muncher
-the RTV in action
-kids in uniforms
-Ecto-1 (duh)

Many of the accounts putting out the trailer announcement said “Something’s Coming,” so I figure the trailer will end teasing whatever big event is on the horizon, a step above the earthquakes.

We really are finally getting a Ghostbusters 3. I mean it's really happening. That gives me hope for other stuff I've waited years for. Fingers crossed for a gigameter by Spirit or Hasbro.

One thing I hope, and really feel we won't see at all in this movie, are the kids in uniforms. That'd just be too... lame.

I had no idea there was an official Ghostbusters app, until DVC posted about it on Facebook with nice shots of the equipment. There’s also a little 3 level game where you catch ghosts with the Ecto-1, popping out of the gunner seat door and deploying the RTV. The ghosts you can catch are Mini Pufts, Muncher, and Terror Dogs.

They were shown in uniforms in an Empire article earlier this year:

In Monday's teaser, they were driving through Dorothy, right? Also, what was that odd structure they passed by? For grain storage?

I'm ready.
A lot of people on social media are going to be angry or disappointed because the trailer doesn't exactly show what they wanted, but that can't be helped.
I'm ready to be amazed.

Abso-f****-lutely ready.

I'd really like to see Slimer. If he's in the movie I'm curious whether they gave him his GB1 or GB2 look.

Do you think they'll play the "Hey, here's Murray!!!" card? Maybe as the last trailer shot?

Who's prepared for more of the "rabble rabble pfft Stranger Things rabble rabble mini stay-pufts are ripping off baby yoda rabble rabble kids can't ghost bust rabble rabble" comments? Do you think they'll dwindle or do you think this trailer will completely dilute those first impressions left on the pessimists?

I've been passing time lately by reading our old posts in this thread. My favorite so far is from July 2020 some of us saying "oh a new trailer has to be right around the corner".

Yeah Alpha no matter what trailer gets put out people are gonna complain. Oh well.

We "got ours".

My response is: "to Hell with them". They've built up this strange justifier to not like the movie and I doubt there's much that'll shake their conviction, even though the similarities with Stranger Things are circumstantial...

If that's all they can see then they're robbing themself of something potentially really good.

They don't deserve to live rent-free in our minds/attention anymore.

I think I speak for at least a few people here that I'm sick of people complaining about this film before it's even out. We had a year or two of that with ATC... And we need to take what good we can get because the Ghostbusters 3 that was anticipated and daydreamed of for so long is never going to happen, so we should try to be optimistic about the one we are getting.

Ray: "Guys, we're home."
Venkman: "Really Ray? You need a girlfriend."
Ray: I dated. Untill you guys trapped her.
Peter: She wanted you for your body, Ray. And not in the kinky way. Talk about being way to possessive.
