Ghostbusters plot hole - J Edgar Hoover as the destructor?

I heard that the original intention was to use the Pillsbury dough boy but they could not get permission from the corporation and invented their own mascot, the Sta-Puft Marshmallow Man.

That DOES make more sense (what does that say about me, that I thought of Michelin before Pillsbury?); if they had blasted the Dough-boy in the belly with their accelerators, would he have giggled them to death?

@Scougs

This makes some kind of sense. Although what Venkman says does make it sound like anything that popped into your head could be construed as a choice. I suppose it’s up to Gozer, really.

I love the fact you can have a good debate on the SDMB about the most trivial of annoyances.

Trivial? How dare you, sir. Who does your taxes?
