Ghostbusters Ending: 8 Potential Clues For The Sequel

3. The Ghostbusters Are Celebrities

As I said in the previous entry, the Ghostbusters end this film as celebrities - while they need to play along with the official story, all of New York knows what they did and in the end credits gives them a show of faith with an inexplicably choreographed light show.

This is, of course, how the original ended, but by the time Ghostbusters II came around they'd reset everything so the gang were disbanded and the plot could be a simple repeat. If we head straight into Ghostbusters 2 (note the number change) from this ending, then we can actually have them capitalise on it; show the team dealing with celebrity, then have this notoriety make them a target for both real world derision (the first movie dealt heavily with bullying) and attacking ghosts.

And, yes, I guess this would be something that will be undisputedly better than the original.
