Info: GHOSTBUSTERS - Tobins Spirit Guide

 (Edited)

This project will be the most complete collection of additional materials for the 1984 film to date. I have been working on collecting materials and how to present it for a fair few months now, as some of you will know from another thread concerning another Ghostbusters project which is now considered dead.

The initial idea was to make a discs worth of bonus materials, but now has become a series of DVD’s due to the amount of content I have!

At present, there are three discs planned, the first already in its final stages of disc authoring.

This first disc will include - all of the music videos
All of the contents of the Critereon Laserdisc features
Alternate dialogue taken from the US televison premiere
Footage from the Universal Studios show
Exerpts from the TV series Movie Magic, and other documentaries
Rare interviews & promtional materials
Plus much more

The second DVD will be a Laserdisc transfer of SFX Museum - Richard Edlund, which is a 60 minute look behind the scenes at Boss Studios containing interviews with the artists involved in Ghostbusters and 2010.

The third disc(s) will be a data format containing the original film in HD, for those of you with compatible monitors/TV’s.

What I need is someone to come up with a design for a template DVD cover that can be used for all three discs. I have some artwork in mind for the first and second discs, but have yet to think about the third.

Any help or ideas of other possible releases would be appriciated, but may I stress that this is strictly a Ghostbusters 1984 project at the moment, so no cartoons or lame sequels!

I am not going to give any timescales on these, but once the first disc is finished, the rest wont take long. I will update this thread with any updates.

Thanks for that - little will ever hold up to the OG film's quality. Looks like great work! I've been looking forward to this for some time!

I need to scan some behind the scenes pics from the Making Ghostbusters book for the back cover, but here are some tentative covers for Vol 1 and 2 of the project. I am waiting for a feedback from Cassius76 now.

Great covers... Although I love the original poster so much... Could you move it from the back to the front?

I assume the official name for this collection is Ghostbusters - Tobins Spirit Guide, right ?

do you prefer Volum 1, part 1 or something else.

Email me. And I will move the back cover image to the front.

All I requested was a template for the set - I have artwork for these releases, I just need a template to bring the three together as a set.
And why is Cassius 76 suddenly an authority on the covers - surley it should be me you are asking - (No offence Cassius)

I really have got to admit, Ash595 is a great cover artist, but we may have crossed wires... I am no way invloved with the creation of this set, I'm just a rabid Ghostbusters fan who remembered Ash's great covers on this site a while back! :-) I didn't mean to sound as if I was involved in all the hard work! Sorry guys!

Looking good guys.

Sorry to throw a shameless personal plug into this thread, but ...

I've just released my Ghostbusted Trilogy DVD - a collection of the incredibly bizarre movies I made at a film festival that have something to do with Ghostbusters.

Link at FFrevolution.com

Sorry to plug. Won't do it again.

Is this project dead...?

I thought disc one was ready to be put up.

Also you may want to stick this on a bonus disc:- It's Ghostbusters the computer game for P.C. totally redone with new graphics from the commodore 64 version.

Hello,
I'm really looking forward to this release, I love Ghostbusters. I attempted some covers, based on my idea of what Tobin's Spirit Guide looks like. I always imagined it as a leatherbound book with the metallic lettering on the cover, so:

I tried to do a gold/silver/copper, though the copper turned out more like orange.

And a double case to house all three:
