It's here!!!!

Yep, they're Spenglers.
1. Their grandpa died, and Egon is the only Buster who died. Harold died offscreen, and they said they'd deal with Egon's absence. So, that alone does it, really.
2. Spores, molds, and fungus.
3. The Spengler uniform.
In real life, it would randomly be any of the suits of any of the guys, but in fiction, everything has a purpose.
Although, come to think of it, Egon would probably only save his own, and several backups.
So, are they gonna flat out be Spenglers, or is it gonna be hidden behind their mom's married name, or something?
Eh...the very fact they're hiding the name hints strongly to me it's gonna flat out be Spenglers.
Oh, and Ecto gunner seat, Terror Dog, and...is that Slimer?
I can't get the pause button to lock on him, it's too blurry.
...it's probably Slimer.
Update-
The German version has a couple extra seconds of Phoebe testing a pack, and her friend wearing Ecto-Goggles with a Polaroid camera built in.

*makes boogie, boogie gestures at Shmegalamonga with fingers* boogie boogie boogie!!!
I watched William Friedkin's 1977 film "Sorcerer," a remake of the 1953 French classic "The Wages Of Fear," about four criminals who are stuck in a South American backwater and have to transport unstable nitroglycerin through bad jungle roads and other obstacles to get to freedom. I liked the Friedkin film a little better--pretty gritty 1970s stuff and it contains a totally terrifying "trucks crossing a rope bridge" scene that's a real deadly looking nailbiter. Friedkin went through hell trying to make the movie, a bit like "Apocalypse Now," taking forever to film the movie in the jungle and pissing everyone off he worked with, and it cost $22 million to make (that'd be like $150 million today) and then it came out THE SAME WEEK AS "STAR WARS" and nobody went to go see it and it flopped all to hell and destroyed Friedkin's career (he'd just come off of "The French Connection" and "The Exorcist") just like "Heaven's Gate" destroyed Michael Cimino's career.
But you gotta see that fucking rope bridge scene!! Here it is. The movie's poster is glorious too.

I'll catch up on all your posts, promise.
These last couple weeks have been moider.
*Just watched the clip*
Jeee-hee-hee-zus!!
Schwan's-
I went through their website, a lot has gone from the 90's, but a lot has stayed!
They don't have rootbeer float cups, but they have it in pop form.
It's on the list, if I can ever find the free time, and the willpower.
School lunches-
Well, I've done that post, so you can see now what I ate back then. I keep remembering extra shit too. Like the mac n'cheese with the breadcrumb crust.
The Irishman-
Yeah, I'm not in a super rush to see that. I just finally saw "Casino", for free on TV. I enjoyed it, but experienced no pangs of regret for waiting 24 years.
Triangular flavor ice-
Yeah, they came in...*strains to remember*..grape..cherry...and something yellow.
Lemon? Some kind of citrus mix? Eh, whatever, it looked like piss.
I never took the piss one.
Food that gets thrown away-
But don't give it to the homeless!
We can't have that!
Those dirty freeloaders!
Give it to the seagulls at the dump!
Dump seagulls give back to society....somehow.
Look, you're not supposed to think about this stuff, you just say it, cuz Murca!
Philip McKeon's death-
Yeah, the timing of that is indeed freaky.
So, we're down to Alice, Flo, Belle (Flo replacement #1, and original movie Flo), and Joline (Flo replacement #2).
A pretty gloomy reunion special if they ever did it, for sure.
Oh! Y'know what I'd do?
I'd have Jodie Foster show up as Tommy's widow, and she's also the grownup version of her character from "Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore"!
Foster's kinda fucked up, she directed a Mel Gibson movie after the Nazi tirade, and the wife beating, she'd probably go for it.
Sorcerer crushed by Star Wars-
Yeah, that comes full circle to today and Scorsese whining about Marvel movies.
Mothafucka, you want the 70's new wave back, go back in time, and shoot George Lucas in the face.
You had your chance then.
Way too late to cry now.
No, no, don't give it to the homeless--you're supposed to have ICE pour ACID on it so NOBODY can eat it. Remember that Simpsons "new trend--wasting food!!" gag?!? Yeah, we're there.
Foster being friends with Mel Gibson isn't as weird to me as Ellen DeGeneres hanging out with George W Bush!!!
I double-checked--"Sorcerer" DIDN'T come out the same week as "Star Wars"--it came out a month later, but the SW juggernaut was still in full effect. It made $322 million when it came out and I don't know what that would be today (also it's a domestic total.)
It's still interesting as a document of the 70s auteur era coming to an end. And unlike f***ing "Heaven's Gate" it's at least a good movie (I won't dissuade people from watching HG per se, but it's nonetheless a big crappy movie--for God's sake the rich bad guy is played by SAM WATERSTON.)
Nothing much to add to these topics except a head nod of agreement.
Except Ellen sucking up to Bush.
Yeah, that's depressing.
Not only was he anti-LGBT, he's a fucking war criminal.
Susan Sarandon and Mark Ruffalo tore into her better than I ever could have though.
It just makes you wonder if in 5-8 years, the liberal talk show hosts won't be kissing Trump, and laughing his record off.
I....don't think Trump will be forgiven. Lots of people hated Bush from the get-go, but some people wanted to sort of ease up on him because of 9/11, since Bill Clinton never had to face anything as bad as 9/11...I remember when 9/11 I myself thought "geez, maybe right now we should put aside our petty grudges against the President!" Trump hasn't had a 9/11 or a John Hinckley assassination to cause him to get any sort of free ride in the press (or so they say, that Reagan got a free ride in the press from his assassination attempt--I wasn't even alive in 1981, so.) There are people trying to claim that the things he's doing aren't really that bad--arguments like "hey, it's not like gay people are being LYNCHED IN THE STREET, are they? So who cares?!?" that sort of shit.
But whereas I don't like Bush or his rather bad presidency, I will say two things about him that I won't say about Trump: 1)There was a *person* there with Bush, and 2)He wasn't really as "stupid" as the press made him out to be, whereas Trump, I think, really is as stupid, if not worse, as he seems. Neither of these statements are meant to forgive Bush, really--I maintain that Richard Nixon was one of the smartest men to ever be President, after all--but I don't think he was running a chaotic train wreck of a white house the way Trump is.
