I'm sure I watched this and Ghostbusters II once each when I was younger, but it wasn't a staple of my childhood.<br /><br />Some great choices so far (I do not recall the "sponge migration" line... sigh) and silentM, it's "Listen... Do you smell something?" but I only know that quote so well thanks to filmwise:<br /><br />http://www.filmwise.com/images/quotes/quote_027.gifPonchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09972322797644160766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-119140567744195265.post-553405561393033782011-03-17T21:28:59.976-04:002011-03-17T21:28:59.976-04:00"What did you do, Ray?"

Screw the chocolate, I'm all about the marshmallow eggs this time of year. Yeah, I never was good at being Christian.<br /><br />Hard to narrow down, but off the top of my head one of my top moments is the elevator scene at the Sedgewick Hotel. The nonverbal reactions once the proton pack is activated are genius. And the unveiling of the Ecto 1 when they get their first call. God, I love that car.<br /><br />And for me, Akroyd's lines are the show stoppers. "Of course you forget, Peter, that I was present at an undersea, unexplained mass sponge migration!" Oh Ray.
