‘Ghostbusters’ Remastered and Returning to Theaters This August!

One of the biggest stories topping the Trending lists today is the recent announcement that the original ‘Ghostbusters’ movie will be remastered and re-released in theaters across the nation this August! Let’s see what the blogs are saying about it!

“A restored and remastered Ghostbusters will return to more than 700 movie theaters on Aug. 29. The theatrical re-release is the centerpiece of a Ghostbusters‘ anniversary celebration that will also include special events, collectible merchandise, and a new home-entertainment release. The Ghostbusters 30th Anniversary Edition Blu-ray, as well as the Ghostbusters II 25th Anniversary Edition Blu-ray will be available on Sept. 16. It’s the first time the 1989 sequel has been released on Blu-ray, and special features include new conversations with director Ivan Reitman and Aykroyd, as well as deleted scenes from the sequel.”

“Even if it’s your second (or third or fourth or twenty-fifth) viewing, you’re in for a treat either way—trust me, I know.”

“Even before this planned marketing blitz, Ghostbusters has come up rather frequently lately — writer and star Harold Ramis died earlier this year, prompting Reitman to decide that he wouldn’t direct the potential third film in the franchise that has been rumored for the better part of the last two decades.”
