Kim Pook (101 KP) rated the PlayStation 4 version of Spongebob Squarepants: Battle for Bikini Bottom - Rehydrated in Video Games
Oct 18, 2020
I didn't actually know that this game is a remake of an old game until I researched it, obviously as I didn't know this I also had never played the original. I did however, love spongebob as a teen (I'd probably still watch it now, if I had the chance) so he is a known cartoon for me.
The game itself is pretty good, you have to go around collecting golden spatulas, lost socks and as many shiny objects as you can carry (golden spatulas and shiny objects are needed to get into some zones) whilst at the same time killing many different robots and solving puzzles. The game is rated pegi 7 which is about right for this type of game, some parts of the game can be incredibly frustrating though especially if you're going for all the trophies, one part for example took me about 45 minutes just to get to a collectable. It's all good fun though and not to be taken too seriously, I look forward to completing the game.

David McK (3713 KP) rated Ghostbusters: Afterlife (2021) in Movies
Nov 28, 2021 (Updated Dec 20, 2025)
Ghostbusters: The video game in 2009.
At that stage, it was - unofficially - touted as Ghostbusters 3.
The (atrocious) remake was in 2006.
This was released in 2021 - so over 30 years since Ghostbusters 2 - and is now the 'official' third entry in the franchise.
Having said that, there is absolutely no mention of Ghostbusters 2 during it, so you could easily skip that if you wanted a rewatch before going to see this.
This follows a new family, who find they have ties to a Ghostbuster of yore, when they are evicted from their tenement and inherit a farmhouse out in the rural countryside: a farmhouse that has secrets of its own, as does the surrounding neighbourhood.
It's also no secret that this relies heavily on nostalgia for the original and that family is at the core of the movie, written - as it is - by the son of the late Ivan Reitman (Jason Reitman) - and paying an elegiac tribute to the late Harold Ramis (1 of the original 4 Ghostbusters - Egon Spengler - , who passed in 2014.
Oh, and the post (not mid) -credits scene? Goes some way to making up for how Ernie Hudson was treated in the original, when he saw his scenes drastically cut from what was intended.
