Initially expected by Aykroyd as a task for himself and kindred Saturday Night Live former student John Belushi, the film had an altogether different story amid introductory drafts. Aykroyd's vision of "Ghostmashers" going through time, space, and different measurements to battle expansive phantoms was considered monetarily unreasonable by Reitman. In view of the chief's recommendations, Aykroyd and Ramis finished the screenplay in May–June 1982. They had composed parts particularly for Belushi and John Candy, yet were compelled to change the script after Belushi passed on and Candy did not focus on the film.
Ghostbusters was discharged in the United States on June 8, 1984. It was a basic and business achievement, getting a positive reaction from faultfinders and crowds and netting US$242 million in the United States and more than $295 million around the world. It was named for two Oscars at the 57th Academy Awards for Best Visual Effects and Best Original Song (for the eponymous signature melody), yet lost to Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and The Woman in Red separately. The American Film Institute positioned Ghostbusters 28th in its AFI's 100 Years...100 Laughs rundown of film comedies. The film propelled the Ghostbusters media establishment, which incorporates a 1989 spin-off, Ghostbusters II; two vivified TV arrangement, The Real Ghostbusters and Extreme Ghostbusters; and a few computer games.
In 2015, the United States Library of Congress chose the film for protection in the National Film Registry, discovering it "socially, generally, or tastefully significant".[4] A reboot featuring Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Kate McKinnon, and Leslie Jones is set for discharge in July 2016.
