I agree Ghostbusters 2 was not of the same calibur as the first but it was still a good movie. On that note the animated series was actually pretty damn good too. I have the box set with the first two seasons and its just as good if not better than I remember. As for bad movies to avoid, watch Expendables 2 at your out risk, its pretty weak.
Yeah writing like anything gets better with practice so the more you do it the better it gets. My problem is I get too many ideas and get overwhelmed by them. Been working all week on a blog for the Tranformers 30th anniversary thing Chris is putting together. Its fun and frustrating all at the same time,lol.
