Ghostbusters

It's all a trick played on the audience. And it happened twice.

Busting ghosts? Please. It's about sex.

Now I know what you're thinking: Of course that's what a guy would think. But before you put me off, riddle this; why at the end do they hold these "busting" guns at crotch-level, fire it at this woman, who then turns into this big monster and then in the end they all end up covered in sticky, white goo?

The second movie was worse. Turns out shooting lasers didn't get through to the audience. So they tossed them in favour of vaguely member-shaped guns that literally squirt goo out of the end. What do they do with them? Climb up the dress of the statue of liberty and squirt it all over her insides (which apparently makes her happy enough to start walking).

Think about it.

Ghostbusters? Yeah, they're busters all right.
