2126. Louis Tully

Louis is a shy nerd, hopelessly in love with Dana.

Rick Moranis played Louis Tully in the Ghostbusters movies . The role of Louis Tully was originally offered to funny man John Candy in an attempt to reunite him with Bill Murray and Harold Ramis.

In the first film, Louis is Dana Barrett's somewhat annoying neighbor. He was seen to frequently lock himself out of his own apartment, and would often hurry into the hallway if he though he heard Dana coming. Louis ended up being possessed by Vinz Clortho the keymaster. When combined with Dana, who was possessed by Zuul the gatekeeper, they released Gozer into this dimension. At the end of the film, the Ghostbusters defeated Gozer, freeing Louis from Vinz Clortho.

In the second film, we see Louis defending Ray, Egon, and Peter after they are arrested for drilling a hole in the middle of the street. When the Scoleri Brothers are released and begin destroying the courtroom, Louis convinces the judge to drop all charges in order to get the Ghostbusters to take care of the problem. When the Ghostbusters reopen for business, Louis is seen to be working as their accountant. He also develops a relationship with Janine Melnitz. At the end of the movie, Louis can be seen donning a suit and pack in an attempt to help the rest of the Ghostbusters.

12. Slimer

Slimer is a fictional green ghost featured in the Ghostbusters movie (as well as its 1989 sequel, Ghostbusters II), whose popularity soared from the subsequent spin-off animated television series The Real Ghostbusters. Slimer later starred in his own Slimer! cartoons when The Real Ghostbusters was extended to a one-hour format. Slimer also appeared as a representative of The Real Ghostbusters in the animated anti-drug television special Cartoon All-Stars to the Rescue. In the first movie, Slimer was voiced by the film's director Ivan Reitman, while Frank Welker voiced the green ghost in The Real Ghostbusters. In the 1989 sequel Ghostbusters II, Robin Shelby performed Slimer and Ivan Reitman again voiced Slimer but most of the footage shot ended up on the cutting room floor. In the late 1990s cartoon Extreme Ghostbusters, Slimer's voice was provided by Billy West.
Slimer is a translucent green blob creature, with two skinny arms, no feet, and several chins. Slimer’s personality is one of tremendous gluttony, being referred to as a “disgusting blob”, and exists only to eat food. In his original appearance he is not named and is portrayed as an enemy of the Ghostbusters, being a typical antagonistic ghost and the first spirit whom the Ghostbusters catch. In the cartoon, he is known as Slimer, is able to speak, and demonstrates a child’s intelligence and an intense loyalty to Ray and the Ghostbusters; on one occasion he even allowed himself to be trapped in the containment unit where the Ghostbusters store the captured ghosts after he unintentionally damaged it, forcing new teammember Eduardo to enter the unit to save him from the various ghosts who would have tortured him to gain vengeance on the Ghostbusters for his role in helping their captors.
