#429 - "SDCC 2018 and Remembering Terry Windell" - July 30, 2018
This week on the show, rounding up all of the SDCC 2018 news and announcements and remembering special effects pioneer Terry Windell. First up, out of SDCC there were a ton of new merch announcements, including Spirt Halloween props and items, new 1:1 replicas, action figures and more (including a Slimer Chia Pet?). Then we'll discuss Ghostbusters World, which was the talk of the con for Ghostbusters fans. Many got a hands-on demo of the game and provided their thoughts. On the press tour for Mission Impossible, writer/director Drew Pearce was hit up (again) about his work on Ghostbusters that was abandoned, and had some interesting comments. Finally, we're remembering Terry Windell of ILM and Boss Films who passed last week at the age of 61, the pioneer who was known for his memorable lightning effects in Ghostbusters and Return of the Jedi left a lasting impression that Troy and Chris discuss. All that and more on this week's Crossrip!

Hard to believe that it’s been ten years since the release of Ghostbusters: Answer the Call. And, while this film has run the gamut of discourse for those last ten years, there are still things to be said about the film all this time later. Why was it such an important next step in the franchise, why did it have a thankless task of following in the footsteps in giants as result of it, and with the advantage of...-

by GB NEWS BOT#1202 - John Lambert/Director of Photography (Part 2) - June 29, 2026
Like the man says, better late than never — here’s part two of Chris’ amazing conversation with John Lambert! As you heard in the first episode, Lambert has an encyclopedic memory of his time coming over to work on Boss Films’ first few titles, including the making of Ghostbusters. And, as you’ll hear, after two whole episodes we still didn't cover everything! Which means you should tune in to both parts...-

Happy Ghostbusters Day Everyone! And yes, you’re going to start seeing (hearing?) more Crossrip episodes in your feed! Rejoice! First up, an interview long promised. Why did it take Chris this long to release this interview? Let's say he got distracted and leave it at that. On the plus side, just in time for Ghostbusters Day 2026, here is the first part of his interview with SFX cameraman at EEG: Employee #1 at Boss Films,...-

This week on the podcast, we’re remembering Harris Yulin, recapping Ghostbusters Day 2025, and talking about a GBFans thread asking if Ghostbusters has gone into dormancy once again. First up, Troy and Chris pay a little tribute to Ghostbusters II’s Judge Stephen “The Hammer” Wexler, played by the incredible character actor Harris Yulin, who passed last week at the age of 87. Then in somewhat of a news segment,...-
