Well, you don't like it, fine, but you're in a minority. The rest of us know it's funny.
And another point on the title: the studio that holds the rights, approves and signs off in merchandising. They are strict. The merchandise has it as one word. And in the respective initial films, they characters say it as one word, not two. I mean, it is entirely within the realm of possibility it was never meant to be split up, but it was, and so they decided to keep that for the second film rather than cause confusion. Also keep in mind that you point to that sequel, but ignore that Ghostbusters: Afterlife is the third film in the franchise, so how does that film display the title? One word.
You want to argue that it's two words, but it's not clear cut and the available information points/leans way more toward one word.
I know, it's silly to go on about this, but you are telling people they are wrong when you in fact don't have a solid foundation for being "right".
Well, it IS clear cut and it's quite clearly two words on the screen, and if the onscreen title of a film isn't a solid foundation for what the title of a film is, what is? (I'll take your word for it on Afterlife [the fourth one] as I've only seen it once.)
I'll tell you something else for nothing: it's BEETLE JUICE.

I think this is a much stronger score than AFTERLIFE, with less reliance on the existing Elmer Bernstein material (although it is still very much shot through with the EB DNA).
AFTERLIFE suffered (for me) with the crazy ratio (EB = 80% - RS = 20%) making it sound more like an updated/adapted GHOSTBUSTERS score than any new/original work for the film.
I also think Marianelli's own scoring is much stronger than Simonsen's, with the action/suspense licks and his grand new (ghostly) Love theme (In The Fabric Of The Universe) being particularly strong and memorable.
Both films are incredibly similar in style (and likewise, scoring), with each film sharing the same beats and scenes (ghost playing chess scene, family in car ghost chase scene etc).
But I will be coming back to this newer score much more than the earlier film effort.
Even during the film I felt that this score felt more like it used the Bernstein SOUND rather than repeating actual Bernstein cues. It doesn't even use the EB themes as much. Very strong score. Pretty good film.

Finally saw the movie - enjoyable parts but an unfocused mix of too much with the story teased in the trailer really beginning only in the last thirty minutes.
But the score which I also only listened to now, after watching the movie, is a delightful surprise. Marianelli really composed a fantastic soundtrack, easily the second best of the series. Fun, beautiful, atmospheric, putting the orchestra to great use, with a perfect powerful sound.
