Jake: Okay I can see that. What the hell is this?
Elwood: This was a bargain. I picked it up at the Mount Prospect city police auction last spring. It's an old Mount Prospect police car. They were practically giving 'em away.

Classic. One of my favourite movie quotes. BB hands down for me. Hasn't dated in the way that GB has.

Arguments against Ghostbusters based on the Entry Criteria:
1) teenagers Was there any?
2) cool soundtrack ONE SONG (Themetune)
3) cool clothes Was there any? Debatable in my opinion
4) eminently quotable. One comes to mind only!
Vote BLUES BROTHERS!!!!!

Ray Charles in Shake A Tailfeather. Cab Calloway in Minnie the Moocher. One of the finest backing bands in history including Steve Cropper. Landis directing his own script (with Akroyd). Career defining performance by the late John Belushi. Ghostbusters? You're having a laugh. I can't believe it's winning at the mo. Come on film lovers! If Blues Brothers doesn't win this there should be a national enquiry.
Absolutely
Spot on
Says it all really doesnt it!
Come on people Vote Blues Brothers!

Not merely a great 80s film, a great film full stop.

Don't be bitter Fasto. Blues Brothers is very good (I'd have voted for it against the other two semifinalist had the draw worked out differently) but Ghostbusters is better.
Plus I think having Osy on your side may have damaged your case.
