Playmobil’s New ‘Ghostbusters II’ Toys Have Interactive Hologram Element
After acquiring the Ghostbusters license a couple years back, Playmobil unleashed a wave of playsets inspired by the original film last year. The sets included the Ecto-1, Stay Puft and even the Firehouse, and Playmobil is adding to their Ghostbusters collection this month with a wave of toys based on the 1989 sequel, Ghostbusters II!
The new Ghostbusters™ II – PLAYMOGRAM 3D line features Egon Spengler (9346), Peter Venkman (9347), Raymond Stantz (9348) and Winston Zeddemore (9349). When synced with the free PLAYMOBIL app (download required), the ghost trap projects a spooky ghost into the clear hologram cone for real ghost-catching action.
“To start the virtual fun, just download the free PLAYMOGRAM 3D app, select a ghost or animal, and place the hologram pyramid on the marker on the display. Just like magic, the characters are suddenly hovering in mid-air. With the touch of your finger, you can catch the ghosts in the trap and release them again.”

The official social media accounts for Scary Movie had recently teased a bong-shaped popcorn bucket, but unfortunately it seems that was just a gag. The actual official Scary Movie popcorn bucket has been revealed by Discussing Film this afternoon, and it’s a bit more practical.
The actual Scary Movie popcorn bucket you’ll be able to get in theaters is shaped like an old school phone, as seen in Wes Craven’s Scream as well as the original Scary Movie in 2000.
The Scary Movie Phone Popcorn Bucket glows in the dark, and it’s emblazoned with “WAZZUP!” on the side, a reference to a memorable moment from the 2000 movie.
A phone number has been set up as part of the movie’s marketing campaign this week, allowing you to call Marlon Wayans’ Shorty for a fun spoof of the retro Moviefone experience.
Call Shorty now at: (855) WAZ-ZZUP
Hitting theaters June 5, 2026, Scary Movie has been Rated ‘R’ for “crude sexual content, graphic nudity, strong violence, and drug content and language throughout.”
Marlon Wayans (“Shorty”), Shawn Wayans (“Ray”), Anna Faris (“Cindy”), and Regina Hall (“Brenda”) reunite for the new Scary Movie, with the cast also including Dave Sheridan, Lochlyn Munro, Cheri Oteri, Chris Elliott, Jon Abrahams, Damon Wayans Jr., Gregg Wayans, Kim Wayans, Benny Zielke, Cameron Scott Roberts, Heidi Gardner, Olivia Rose Keegan, Ruby Snowber, Savannah Lee Nassif, Sydney Park, and Felissa Rose.
Twenty-six years after outrunning a suspiciously familiar masked killer (“Ghostface”), the Core Four are back in the killer’s crosshairs and no horror movie IP is safe…
Scary Movie will slash through reboots, remakes, requels, prequels, sequels, spin-offs, elevated horror, origin stories, anything with the word legacy in it, and every “final chapter” that absolutely isn’t. A whole lot has changed in the horror genre since the Wayans Brothers were in charge of the franchise; their involvement ended with Scary Movie 2 back in 2001!
Michael Tiddes (A Haunted House) directs Scary Movie 6 from a script written by Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, original Scary Movie director Keenen Ivory Wayans, Craig Wayans (Scary Movie 2), and Rick Alvarez (A Haunted House).
