10 Movies That Should Have Been Included in the National Film Registry By Now

9. Ghostbusters

This was one of the first films to treat the paranormal as something to be laughed at. The title song certainly helped to sell the concept. What do you think whenever you hear the phrase €œWho ya gonna call?€ You immediately think €œGhostbusters!€ It also gave us the indelible image of the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man terrorizing New York. Although it spawned a lesser sequel, its legacy as one of the best comedies of the 1980s remains intact. The American Film Institute has already recognized it as part of its 100 Years€ 100 Laughs list of comedies. It€™s time for the National Film Registry to follow suit.

I am a fan of film, Doctor Who (and sci-fi in general), fantasy, the adventure genre of gaming (the Myst series in particular), making lists and caesar salad.
