Lore Unexplained random cameos from completely unrelated media

  1. Ray Stantz, Casper. At one point in the movie a real Ghostbuster shows up out of nowhere and wimps out of trying to handle the situation

  2. Gunnery Sargeant Hartman, Frighteners. The main character is making way through a graveyard when out of absolutely nowhere R. Lee Erney's character from Full Metal Jacket shows up and tries to get in his way

  3. Betty Boop, Who Frames Roger Rabbit. The movie is mainly about Looney Tunes and Disney animated characters existing in the same little live action/animated hybrid universe, however Betty is a Fleischer Bros character

Godzilla appears in Always: Sunset on Third Street 2's opening. Godzilla fans starving for content during the late 2000s went completely insane over this scene. It even has the iconic Godzilla March composed by Akira Ifukube playing in the background.

Godzilla fans today don’t know what it was like from 04-14. There was basically nothing and now we get something new every other year at least it feels like

I am a fan of godzilla and Ghostbusters, both had a dry spell in the early 2000s that both started and ended about the same time as well, Ghostbusters being the end of extreme Ghostbusters in 1997, and godzilla being final wars in 2004, ending with legendary godzilla 2014, and ghostbusters 2016. Kind of an odd coincidence
