How that stacks up over the coming weeks in comparison to the rest of the years offerings we will see in time. While experts originally predicted the film would make around $40 million worldwide on opening weekend, which would have put it behind the much maligned 2016 Ghostbusters movie, the film surprised everyone by bringing in $60 million, and considering we are in the current post-pandemic environment we are, it is a fair assumption that this would have been even higher in other circumstances. The first stumbling block for any potential sequel is the box office receipts. In the post credits scenes, Winston Zeddmore is seen returning Ecto1 to the familiar surroundings of the Fire House after declaring that he will always be a Ghostbuster, and we are left with a flashing red light on the containment unit suggesting that there is still more to come. It then gives way to a second half that leans heavily on the storyline of the original 1984 movie, with terror dogs creating a Keymaster and Gatekeeper, Gozer being released from her fiery hell, and everything culminating with a rematch between the demon and the original Ghostbusters, who are helped out by Egon’s grandchildren and the spirit of their old partner himself. The first half acts as an unravelling mystery with the focus on the grandchildren of original Ghostbuster Egon Spengler having a snoop around his old farm property, discovering various familiar-to-audiences items from Ghostbusters history such as the PKE Meter, Proton Pack and Ecto1. The story of Ghostbusters: Afterlife provides a two part film.
