It really was an awesome time when summer movies DELIVERED and were worth getting excited about. As opposed to today where you generally get one or two good ones out of the pack. I dont think it has anything to do with being a kid at the time either. 'Ghostbusters II' is better than most action/comedies of today.

I was born in 84 so I guess I was 5. I was already a huge fan of the first movie and the cartoon show. I had the magazines, and cards, and lunchbox, and firehouse, and a grandma with lots of money to spend. My parents took me to the movie. Other than The Fox and the Hound, this has to be the first movie I remember seeing in theatres. I also saw Batman at a drive in, but I fell asleep part way through.

I wanted to see it. I remember the commercials and stuff but I only ended up seeing Batman. I was only 7 at the time. For those who did see it in the theaters, were there really extra scenes not shown in the home releases?

Saw it with my dad and sis when I was 6. There were only 5 other folks in the theater, this was on a Sunday afternoon. I remember leaving to go to the restroom and figured I'd be a bit nosey and stick my head in the auditorium showing Batman, it was packed!
All in all, I enjoyed it because I was and still to this day, am a GB fan. Although, I will say that I had the slightest feeling people passed on seeing ghostbusters 2 for Batman (highest grossing flick of the summer). I went back and saw it a week later and it was down to 2 showings which felt a bit depressing to me at the time, but now I understand lol!

still own the CD soundtrack.
I had to make due with the cassette tape (which technically I "stole" from my sister).
But yeah, I saw it opening day, dad took me and my sister. One of the most crowded theaters I've ever been in, I don't think there was a single empty seat (something I never saw again other than for Star Wars ep 3).

I saw it for my 9th bday, we actually saw it a day before it came out, i think it was for a radio station screening or something similar. I remember being creeped out by the severed heads in the subway and Janoaz's eyes durning the blackout. Of coarse by this time I had tons of the toys and really wanted figures of the Real Ghostbusters in the dark blue jumpsuits. Mom would never let me have the slime lol

I did! I was 13 years old and saw it with my family. I loved it, and afterwards I brought the soundtrack on cassette. I also collected clippings from the newspapers and such, I didn't get much, but what I got I thought was great.
Now fast forward 25 years later, and my youngest daughter loves this movie. Last year at Dragon Con, I met Ernie Hudson (what a very nice gentleman), and got the chance to have his autograph along with 2 pictures! Would love a 3rd movie, but at least we have the two.

Saw it in theatres. I remember kids saying "go back for the packs". And then at the end credits my mom wanted to leave. My dad wanted to stay and leave me to jam out to the ray parker song. Then it went into the rap stuff and my dad was like " Let's go".
