User blog comment:Hippie Rat/Epic Rap Battles of History's Ghostbusters vs Mythbusters - Hippie Rat Reviews/@comment-3401602-20170315040944/@comment-7464192-20170315232204

It was cool, they did the sequence perfectly right down to Egon staring at the ground for his mark as he steps forward. It was a sequence made perfectly to show how much ERB got the Ghostbusters' details down pact. My problem was that they got the Ghostbusters details too much, leaving us with nothing original and just "hey, 'member Ghostbusters?" I also didn't like how it was written with an unannounced back-and-forth between who the Ghostbusters were talking to that I wanted to fix up in the rewrite. (Are they talking to the Mythbusters or the Mythbusters' audience?! Pick one and stick with it!)

The rewrite I felt compelled to do because I started this series doing rewrites so I kinda need to throw in a rewrite every once in a while. It was something I honestly wrote just for the demonstration that it didn't have to all be Ghostbusters quotes, unless it was legitimately clever, and to draw a bit more focus on the paranormal fighters vs paranormal debunkers idea that was only really focused on in the Mythbusters' verses. I wasn't writing for perfection, and I even stooped down to doing something I usually don't like doing (cutting sentence fragments for the rhyme at the "but my method has led us to bring"). It's not my full potential and is a way to say "it's too late to go back and fix this battle but if it weren't here are some ideas for lyrics we could've worked off of to create a better version given the chance."

Either way, thanks for reading
