S.O.S. fantômes (1984)

Gozer : [after Ray orders her to re-locate] Are you a God?

[Ray looks at Peter, who nonchalantly nods yes]

Gozer : Then... DIE!

[Lightning flies from her fingers, driving the Ghostbusters to the edge of the roof and almost off; people below scream]

Winston Zeddemore : Ray, when someone asks you if you're a god, you say "YES"!

Dr. Peter Venkman : All right! This chick is TOAST!

Dr. Peter Venkman : This city is headed for a disaster of biblical proportions.

Mayor : What do you mean, "biblical"?

Dr. Raymond Stantz : What he means is Old Testament, Mr. Mayor, real wrath of God type stuff.

Dr. Peter Venkman : Exactly.

Dr. Raymond Stantz : Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies! Rivers and seas boiling!

Dr. Egon Spengler : Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes...

Winston Zeddemore : The dead rising from the grave!

Dr. Peter Venkman : Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... MASS HYSTERIA!

Mayor : All right, all right! I get the point!

Janine Melnitz : Do you believe in UFOs, astral projections, mental telepathy, ESP, clairvoyance, spirit photography, telekinetic movement, full trance mediums, the Loch Ness monster and the theory of Atlantis?

Winston Zeddemore : Ah, if there's a steady paycheck in it, I'll believe anything you say.

Dr. Peter Venkman : [as the Ghostbusters approach Gozer] Grab your stick!

[the Ghostbusters draw their handsets]

Dr. Raymond Stantz , Dr. Egon Spengler , Winston Zeddemore : HOLDIN'!

Dr. Peter Venkman : Heat 'em up!

[they arm their packs]

Dr. Raymond Stantz , Dr. Egon Spengler , Winston Zeddemore : SMOKIN'!

Dr. Peter Venkman : Make 'em hard!

[they rack their handsets]

Dr. Raymond Stantz , Dr. Egon Spengler , Winston Zeddemore : READY!

Dr. Peter Venkman : Let's show this prehistoric bitch how we do things downtown... THROW IT!

Gozer : The Choice is made!

Dr. Peter Venkman : Whoa! Ho! Ho! Whoa-oa!

Gozer : The Traveller has come!

Dr. Peter Venkman : Nobody choosed anything!

[turns to Egon]

Dr. Peter Venkman : Did you choose anything?

Dr. Egon Spengler : No.

Dr. Peter Venkman : [to Winston] Did YOU?

Winston Zeddemore : My mind is totally blank.

Dr. Peter Venkman : I didn't choose anything...

[long pause, Peter, Egon and Winston all look at Ray]

Dr. Raymond Stantz : I couldn't help it. It just popped in there.

Dr. Peter Venkman : [angrily] What? WHAT "just popped in there?"

Dr. Raymond Stantz : I... I... I tried to think...

Dr. Egon Spengler : LOOK!

[they all look over one side of the roof]

Dr. Raymond Stantz : No! It CAN'T be!

Dr. Peter Venkman : What is it?

Dr. Raymond Stantz : It CAN'T be!

Dr. Peter Venkman : What did you DO, Ray?

Winston Zeddemore : Oh, shit!

[they all see a giant cubic white head topped with a sailor hat, Peter looks at Ray]

Dr. Raymond Stantz : [somberly] It's the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.

Winston Zeddemore : I'm Winston Zeddmore, Your Honor. I've only been with the company for a couple of weeks, but these things are real. Since I joined these men, I've seen shit that'll turn you white.

Dr. Egon Spengler : I have a radical idea. The door swings both ways, we could reverse the particle flow through the gate.

Dr. Peter Venkman : How?

Dr. Egon Spengler : [hesitates] We'll cross the streams.

Dr. Peter Venkman : 'Scuse me Egon? You said crossing the streams was bad!

Dr. Raymond Stantz : Cross the streams...

Dr. Peter Venkman : You're gonna endanger us, you're gonna endanger our client - the nice lady, who paid us in advance, before she became a dog...

Dr. Egon Spengler : Not necessarily. There's definitely a VERY SLIM chance we'll survive.

[pause while they consider this]

Dr. Peter Venkman : [slaps Ray] I love this plan! I'm excited to be a part of it! LET'S DO IT!

Winston Zeddemore : [all get up to get ready] This job is definitely not worth $11,500 a year.

Winston Zeddemore : Ray, when someone asks you if you're a god, you say, "yes!"

Winston Zeddemore : Hey Ray. Do you believe in God?

Dr Ray Stantz : Never met him.

Winston Zeddemore : Yeah, well, I do. And I love Jesus's style, you know.

Dr Ray Stantz : The entire roof cap is made out of a magnesium-tungsten alloy...

Winston Zeddemore : What are you so involved with over there?

Dr Ray Stantz : These are the blueprints for structural ironwork of Dana Barret's apartment building, and they are very, very strange.

Winston Zeddemore : Hey Ray. Do you remember something in the bible about the last days when the dead would rise from the grave?

Dr Ray Stantz : I remember Revelations 6:12...?And I looked, and he opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake. And the sun became as black as sack cloth, and the moon became as blood."

Winston Zeddemore : "And the seas boiled and the skies fell."

Dr Ray Stantz : Judgement day.

Winston Zeddemore : Judgement day.

Dr Ray Stantz : Every ancient religion has its own myth about the end of the world.

Winston Zeddemore : Myth? Ray, has it ever occurred to you that maybe the reason we've been so busy lately is 'cause the dead HAVE been rising from the grave?

Dr Ray Stantz : [Pause] How 'bout a little music?

Winston Zeddemore : Yeah.

[last lines]

Winston Zeddemore : I love this town!

Dr. Raymond Stantz : It's a girl.

Dr. Egon Spengler : It's Gozer.

Winston Zeddemore : I thought Gozer was a man.

Dr. Egon Spengler : It's whatever it wants to be.

Dr. Peter Venkman : Well, whatever it is, it's gotta get by us.

Dr. Raymond Stantz : Right!

[pause]

Dr. Peter Venkman : Go get her, Ray!

Winston Zeddemore : Hey, wait a minute. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey! Hold it! Now, are we actually gonna go before a federal judge, and tell him that some moldy Babylonian god is going to drop in on Central Park West, and start tearing up the city?

Dr. Egon Spengler : Sumerian, not Babylonian.

Dr. Peter Venkman : Yeah. Big difference.

Winston Zeddemore : No offense, guys, but I've gotta get my own lawyer.

Winston Zeddemore : This job is definitely *not* worth eleven-five a year!

Dr. Raymond Stantz : [after Gozer disappears] We've neutronized it, you know what that means? A complete particle reversal.

Winston Zeddemore : We have the tools, and we have the talent!

Dr. Peter Venkman : It's Miller time!

[the trio shake hands]

Dr. Raymond Stantz : Every ancient religion has its own myth about the end of the world.

Winston Zeddemore : Myth? Ray, has it ever occurred to you that maybe the reason we've been so busy lately is because the dead HAVE been rising from the grave?

[long pause]

Dr. Raymond Stantz : [Turns on radio] How 'bout a little music?

Dr. Egon Spengler : [about the storage facility] I'm worried, Ray. Boy, it's getting crowded in there, and all my recent data points to something big on the horizon.

Winston Zeddemore : What do you mean "big"?

Dr. Egon Spengler : [Holding a Twinkie] Let's say this Twinkie represents all of the Psychokinetic Energy in the New York area. According to this morning's sample, it'll be a Twinkie...... 35 feet long and weighing approximately 600 lbs.

Winston Zeddemore : [Ray coughs in disbelief] That's a big Twinkie.

Dr. Raymond Stantz : We can be on the verge of a four-fold cross rip. A PKE surge of incredible, even dangerous proportions.

Dr. Peter Venkman : [Coming in] We just got a visit from the Environmental Protection Agency. How's the grid holdin' up?

Dr. Egon Spengler : It's not good.

Winston Zeddemore : [to Egon] Tell him about the Twinkie.

Dr. Peter Venkman : What about the Twinkie?

Dr. Peter Venkman : All right, this chick is TOAST. Okay; sticks?

Dr. Raymond Stantz , Dr. Egon Spengler , Winston Zeddemore : HOLDIN'!

Dr. Peter Venkman : Heat 'em up!

Dr. Raymond Stantz , Dr. Egon Spengler , Winston Zeddemore : SMOKIN'!

Dr. Peter Venkman : MAKE 'EM HARD!

Dr. Raymond Stantz , Dr. Egon Spengler , Winston Zeddemore : READY!
