This may seem like a stupid question but is gozer really a god or he/she is only an evil entity who was worshipped as a god by the ancient sumerians? Just gozer has a slightly negative connotation, so shouting hey gozer! to a random person you meet can be considered hostile In a deleted line from the script, louis while possessed by vinz clortho said gozer thinks it's funny to change their forms
Gozer - Slavitza Jovan - Ghostbusters 1984 | Thriller Actress
Now it's interesting in the concept art in afterlife they show different statues of gozer done in different appearances, hinting that gozers appearance does change whenever he manifests.
I actually dont think gozer was contained
Gozer is from another dimension Gozer needs an anchor to stay in our dimension (vinz and zuul) and gozer used human spirits to manifest a body so as to have a physical form. Is gozer the gozerian made up of many entities and not just a single entity In afterlife, if you slow down the clip of when gozer gets pulled apart by all the different ghost traps in the dirt, each time a piece of gozer comes out is in the shape of a figure as you can see a head and shoulders
Gozer would have demanded a challenge from ray for the sake of his dimension Gozer might have picked it's own form instead of asking them to choose Gozer may have some sort of code of honor it follows, as if there is etiquette for interdimensional travel and gozer is a big space bully picking on unclaimed populations. Either give gozer a completely different form or make her look like the 84 version.
Gozer is pretty similar to the way dude is used, only in an informal setting and generally only when addressing younger people
When it's used without any qualifiers (meaning just saying gozer) is fine among friends but not outside that circle
