!!Ghostbusters 2016
* Erin is the first of the new team to get slimed.
-->'''Erin''': That stuff went everywhere, by the way. In every crack. Very hard to wash off.
* Erin and Abby stumbling over each other trying to say "Let's go" before the team's first mission.
* While wandering through a theatre dressing room, Erin goes in front of a shelf full of wigs - and then jumps at the sight of Holtzmann standing their in a bright purple wig and gaudy hat.
-->'''Erin''': Holtzmann! Come on.\\
'''Holtzmann''': It's the hat, it's too much, right? *''{{beat}}''* Is it the wig or the hat?
* Patty goes after a possessed Abby and slaps the ghost out of her - but doesn't realize it at first.
-->'''Patty''': Get out of my friend, ghost!\\
''*slap, ghost leaves*''\\
'''Abby''': Ow, that's gonna leave a mark.\\
'''Patty''': The power of Patty compels you!\\
''*slap*''\\
'''Abby''': ''OW!''

--->'''Ray''': Okay, switch me on.\\
''(Egon hits the power switch, and everyone moves away in the cramped space)''

'''Patty''': The power of pain compels you!\\

-->'''Peter''': Now! *commence blasting*.

* From the capturing of Slimer, we have the immortal couplet.
--> '''Stantz''': I'm opening the trap - Don't look directly into the trap!\\
''The trap is opened''\\
'''Spengler''': ''I looked at the trap, Ray!'' [eyes widen]
* After she's [[ShootEverythingThatMoves nearly vaporized by the Ghostbusters]], the poor hotel maid can be seen pathetically [[FunnyBackgroundEvent trying to extinguish the burning carpet with her spray bottle.]]
** Venkman deciding to try the tablecloth-pull trick he had always wanted to do, [[SkewedPriorities even though Slimer is loose in the ballroom]]. Everything breaks, but we get this:
--> '''Venkman:''' The flowers are still standing!
* This gem:
--> Ray: [[LetsSplitUpGang Let's split up.]]
--> Peter: [[DeadpanSnarker Good idea, we'll do more damage that way.]]

* The entirety of their first case snagging Slimer is one long [=CMoF=] the second they reach the elevators.
-->'''Elderly Gent:''' What are you supposed to be, some kind of a cosmonaut?\\
'''Venkman:''' Hah! No, we're exterminators. Someone saw a cockroach up on 12.\\
'''Elderly Gent:''' That's gotta be some cockroach.\\
'''Venkman:''' (deadpan) Bite your head off, man.\\
(''the elevator opens'')\\
'''Stantz:''' Going up?\\
'''Elderly Gent:''' I'll take the next one.
** Dan Aykroyd's barely-hidden {{corpsing}} after Venkman's "Bite your head off, man" ad-lib.
** The calm bickering on the elevator over how their gear is untested leads to:
--->'''Ray''': Okay, switch me on.\\
''(Egon hits the power switch, and slowly nudges Venkman over to one side in the cramped elevator)''

** "[[ComicallyMissingThePoint The flowers are still standing]]!"[[/note]] In response to a poorly executed tablecloth-removal trick, which he had always wanted to try.]]
* After she's [[ShootEverythingThatMoves nearly vaporized by the Ghostbusters]], the poor hotel maid can be seen [[FunnyBackgroundEvent pathetically trying to extinguish the burning carpet with her spray bottle.]]

--> '''Venkman''': *Motions to Zedd* Did you?!
--> '''Zedd''': My mind is totally blank!

--> *Egon, Venkman, and Zedd all turn towards Stantz and begin to close in on him.*

* A doorman, played by [[NewEdition Bobby Brown]] asks Egon and Ray if they had an extra Proton Pack for his little brother.

** "The flowers are still standing!"

* ---> Ray: [[LetsSplitUpGang Let's split up.]]
---> Peter: [[DeadpanSnarker Good idea, we'll do more damage that way.]]

-->'''Egon''': ''<Holds up PKE, which immediately spikes>'' Yes.

* YMMV, but Rick Moranis' performance as Vince Plortho is just downright {{Adorkable}} and hilarious.
-->'''Vince''' ''(almost pleadingly to Egon)'': Are ''you'' the Gatekeeper?
-->''(Egon waves PKE monitor in front of Vince, distantly) '''Egon''': Yes.
-->''(Vince follows movements of the PKE, transfixed by the device)''

-->'''[[CheechAndChong Dockworker]]:''' ''(staring in disbelief, then almost shrugging as the ghostly passengers debark)'' Well... better late than never!

-->'''Vince''' ''(to Egon)'': Are ''you'' the Gatekeeper?
-->''(Egon waves PKE monitor in front of Vince, Vince follows movements of the PKE, transfixed by the device)''

-->'''[[CheechAndChong Dockworker]]]:''' ''(staring in disbelief, then almost shrugging as the ghostly passengers debark)'' Well... Better late than never!

-->'''Peter''': Ray, we’re walking a 150 foot national monument through Manhattan. You think we should worry about a traffic ticket?

** After the toaster's dance, Peter plays a trick on his teammates by [[spoiler: pretending the toaster is eating his hand]]. In retaliation, Ray grabs Peter from behind and yells "GET HIM!" while Egon and Winston proceed to do just that.

-->'''Peter''': Ray, we’re walking a 150 foot national monument through Manhattan. You think we should worry about a traffic ticket?
* Making the toaster dance.

-->'''Peter''': Ray, we’re walking a 150 foot national monument through Manhattan. You think we should worry about a traffic ticket?

**

-->'''Peter:''' ({{beat}}) "Is this a trick question?"

-->'''Venkman''' ''(lifting beer can in toast)'': To our first customer!
-->'''Ray''' ''(in unison)'': Our first customer!
-->'''Venkman''': ... And ''only'' customer.
-->''(beat as the trio take a swig)''
-->'''Venkman''': I'm gonna need to draw some of the petty cash. I should take her out to dinner, I don't want to lose her.
-->'''Ray''': Uh, this magnificent feast here represents the ''last'' of the petty cash.
-->''(beat)''
-->'''Venkman''' ''(silently, solemnly)'': Slow down. Chew your food.

-->'''Ray:''' (over the radio) "Venkman! I saw it! I saw it! I saw it!"
-->'''Venkman:''' (nervously) "It's right here, Ray. It's looking at me."
-->'''Ray:''' "He's an ugly little spud, isn't he?"
-->'''Venkman:''' "I think he can hear you."

* Venkman teasing Egon shortly before going to confront the library ghost:

'''Venkman''': (beat) I think we'll take it.

'''Spengler''': ''I looked at the trap, Ray!''

* "Guys, guys, we've been going about this all wrong. This Mr. Staypuft is okay, he's a sailor, he's in New York--we just get this guy laid, we won't have any trouble!"

--> '''Peck:''' These men are in violation of the Environmental Protection Act, [[BlatantLies and this explosion is a direct result of it!]]

-->'''Peter''': Ray has gone bye-bye, Egon. What've you got left?
-->'''Egon''': Sorry, Venkman. [[ThatMakesMeFeelAngry I'm terrified beyond the capacity for rational thought.]]

* After Gozer is destroyed and the damage is done, the Ghostbusters all emerge from the rubble. Everyone's covered head to toe in marshmallow foam except for Venkman who's relatively clean. There's a moment where the guys are looking at Venkman like, "Wait, what the hell?"

-->'''Janosz:''' Soon it will be midnight, and the whole world will be mine and Vigo's. {{beat}} Mostly Vigo's
