In Ghostbusters, ghosts are real.

In Scooby Doo, ghosts are actually rich, greedy white men in a costume trying to scare off those meddling kids.

So are the ghosts real or not?

All I know is the kids in the Mystery Machine have good weed.

[–] TwanHE@lemmy.world 40 points 4 months ago

Ghostbusters are the backup crew in case it's real this time

[–] onlooker@lemmy.ml 18 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Somebody is obviously trying to cover all the bases. That's just good thinking. If ghost are real, they get zapped. If they aren't real, they get to chase a group of adolescents all over the place for about 20 minutes before said adolescents figure out it's not a ghost for the umpteenth time.

[–] InputZero@lemmy.ml 7 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Unless it's a real person who gets zapped. Then it's manslaughter.

[–] BurningTurtle@feddit.org 5 points 4 months ago

Just catch the ghost afterwards.

[–] roguetrick@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

It ain't gonna kill ya to get zapped. I mean not immediately. Radiation sickness and lymphoma can take awhile.

[–] RandomVideos@programming.dev 6 points 4 months ago

There are real ghosts in some of the Scooby Doos

[–] Mango@lemmy.world -4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Racist.

You also clearly have very limited experience with Scooby Doo. There's lots of real monsters and ghosts in the series.

What race is being discriminated against here? I'm pretty sure monsters would be a species, not a race.

id watch it. the live action scooby doo was way better than i expected

[–] DessertStorms@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 4 months ago

The soundtrack for the first one was a banger, too..

Thanks for the reminder!

[–] selokichtli@lemmy.ml 18 points 4 months ago (1 children)

If the photo was taken by one "Fox Mulder", yeah, you are done.

[–] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 3 points 4 months ago

I want to believe.

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 16 points 4 months ago (2 children)

At least there isn't a black 67 impala.

[–] Zagorath@aussie.zone 11 points 4 months ago

To save anyone else the Google: that's the car the main characters of Supernatural drive.

You keep driving and don't stop until you are 2 counties over at that point.

[–] UnRelatedBurner@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 months ago (4 children)

I don't get the middle one

[–] rockerface@lemm.ee 8 points 4 months ago (2 children)

That's from Supernatural, I'm pretty sure

[–] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Hell yeah it is! Best damn show hated the way it ended but was hell of a ride.

[–] UnRelatedBurner@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 months ago

never seen it, thanks tho.

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 1 points 4 months ago

Who's the black private dick that's a sex machine to all the chicks?

[–] poweruser@lemmy.sdf.org -1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Is it Dominic Turetto's car from the first Fast and the Furious movie?

[–] JusticeForPorygon@lemmy.world 7 points 4 months ago

It's Sam and Dean Winchester

[–] Zagorath@aussie.zone 1 points 4 months ago

The parking couldn't be much worse than that.

[–] brown567@sh.itjust.works 10 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Worse than a usual Scooby Doo case and better than a usual Ghostbusters case

Because it's bad enough that it could be a real ghost, but not so bad that it couldn't just be a guy in a costume

[–] VinesNFluff@pawb.social 4 points 4 months ago

Y'all are thinking small

It's both

There's an old person who wants to scare people off for some money making scheme. BUT. They somehow managed to recruit help from beyond the grave

That's why you need both teams.

The 'busters will catch the spooky ghost

Mystery Inc will figure out who summoned it.

[–] Norgur@fedia.io 9 points 4 months ago

That's what happens when Fred smugly tried to pull the hood from the ghost who was supposed to be the gardener or some shit. The fucking hood turned out to be no hood, but a ghost emblazoned with the emblem of Zuul.

[–] Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago

Like hey scoob! It's the g-g-g-g... ghostbusters!

[–] Grass@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 months ago

what is this, a crossover episode?

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

The person who made those calls thinks they have a ghost, at least they think it's a ghost. Whatever it is, they will finally get to the bottom of it.

[–] Wilzax@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

People are reporting ghost sightings. They called in the Ecto-1 if they're real, and the Mystery Machine if they're a hoax.

[–] SnipingNinja@slrpnk.net 3 points 4 months ago

It's just good sense to cover your bases by getting both

[–] Hux@lemmy.ml 3 points 4 months ago

I feel like the Mystery Machine became a requirement after Venkman exploded too many real estate developers.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

First, the weirdest US presidential debate .... and now this.

What's next? World War III?

[–] DessertStorms@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 4 months ago

What’s next? World War III?

Already in the works.. 😬

[–] Marduk73@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Id put just a little bit of money down and say this is near Volo car museum. Not a sure bet because movie cars have copies.

[–] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 4 points 4 months ago

Or a convention nearby

[–] jdeath@lemm.ee 2 points 4 months ago

that's just florida

[–] Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Then fred takes the mask of the ecto 1 and says it was old man cribbins the whole time. And the ghosts were just sheets on strings. And the gatekeeper was just elitist goth musicians.

[–] LEDZeppelin@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

They’re just covering all the bases
