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

[–] SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 66 points 2 days ago (3 children)

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.

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 6 points 2 days ago (2 children)

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

[–] BurningTurtle 5 points 2 days ago

Just catch the ghost afterwards.

[–] roguetrick@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

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

[–] TwanHE@lemmy.world 40 points 2 days ago

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

[–] RandomVideos@programming.dev 6 points 2 days ago

There are real ghosts in some of the Scooby Doos

[–] Grass@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 days ago

what is this, a crossover episode?

[–] Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

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

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

[–] selokichtli@lemmy.ml 17 points 2 days ago (1 children)

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

[–] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 days ago

I want to believe.

[–] originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com 19 points 2 days ago (1 children)

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

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

Thanks for the reminder!

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 15 points 2 days ago (2 children)

At least there isn't a black 67 impala.

[–] Zagorath@aussie.zone 11 points 2 days 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 2 days ago (4 children)

I don't get the middle one

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

That's from Supernatural, I'm pretty sure

never seen it, thanks tho.

[–] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

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

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 days ago

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

[–] poweruser@lemmy.sdf.org -1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

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

[–] JusticeForPorygon@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago

It's Sam and Dean Winchester

[–] Zagorath@aussie.zone 1 points 2 days ago

The parking couldn't be much worse than that.

[–] brown567@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 days 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 2 days 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 2 days 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 2 points 2 days 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.

[–] jdeath@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago

that's just florida

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days 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.

[–] Hux@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 days ago

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

[–] Marduk73@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days 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 2 days ago

Or a convention nearby

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

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

What's next? World War III?

What’s next? World War III?

Already in the works.. 😬

[–] LEDZeppelin@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

They’re just covering all the bases
