Didn't that already happen in the video game? Or would shandor island count as underwater?

Or maybe have Vigo use some sort of magic to transform the museum into some sort of gothic castle like you see in his painting. That’s what the slime could’ve been used for. The slime rises up out of the sewers and forms a castle structure which Vigo then zaps into some sort of obsidian obelisk(like Orthanc in Lord of the Rings).

Instead of finding the station itself when they went into the abandoned train tunnels, they should've found part of the pneumatic subway tunnel and its mechanical infrastructure... Then in the finale we see the station, beautiful and ruined, like it'd been hit by an earthquake and split in two, leading to a waterfall of slime.I agree with Kingpin pretty frequently but you can tell Hell is getting chilly again because I'm also in agreement with RichardLess

Just make it, buddy!I suppose I was seeing if anyone else remembered those weird early ghostbusters comics IDW did. I don't really like them, the Christmas one was the best, but that's not saying much.

Ghostbusters Afterlife isnt going to play anywhere but the theatre. There will be plenty more movies that are sold and moved to streaming. 95% of them are cheaper movies. The outlier is Mulan but there’s a reason Disney is doing that and so far that’s it.
Steven Zeitchik of WaPo is reporting that Paramount is very likely to sell Coming 2 America to a streaming service. They'll almost certainly choose Netflix, both because Paramount previously sold The Cloverfield Paradox, Beverly Hills Cop 4, and The Lovebirds to them, and because Netflix is in the Eddie Murphy business after the success of Dolemite is My Name last year.
It's unclear at the moment how much Coming 2 America cost. However, I would float this as one (still unlikely) outsider possibility that would lead to Ghostbusters: Afterlife premiering at home. Sony did sell Greyhound to Apple+ and An American Pickle to WB, which released it on HBO Max.
The big question mark for me would be what terms are included in Paramount's Beverly Hills Cop 4 deal. Do they still get to release it on traditional home video? (The Cloverfield Paradox got a Blu-ray release.) They certainly didn't sell the Beverly Hills Cop IP itself to Netflix, as they put out a remastered Blu-ray trilogy set earlier this year. Obviously, Sony is not going to give up Ghostbusters as an IP; it's too valuable to them. Ghostbusters: Afterlife is also probably more expensive than Greyhound ($50m) and An American Pickle ($20m) put together, and those were straight sales -- Apple and WB outright own those movies now. But, if they're strapped for cash and have no other options (and most importantly, if it continues to look like theaters will remain closed, especially well into 2021), it seems possible they could work out a deal for this movie specifically, if they believe that floating this movie for some price tag they're comfortable with (and presumably retaining home video rights so they can make some profits beyond that) would be good enough to maintain the brand and allow for further theatrical movies without a streamer's help, post-pandemic.

I taped the first one on my cable box, but a sporting event ran over and it didn't record the end. Later, I was able to watch most of the second. I had it and the third one (which was playing afterwards) set to record.
