| | + | ==Conservative Aspects== |
| | + | Ghostbusters is about hard-working men who start their own business, and its main human villains (not the supernatural creatures) are mostly high-ranking government offcails, such as the EPA inspector, the mayor, the mayor's assistant, and the judge. The film promotes the idea of smaller government. In the sequel the Ghostbusters right along the statue of liberty, a great representation of American patriotism. |
