For those that are too young to remember, they had these toys come out in the 90's called Furby's, they looked very similar to Gizmo, so Warner Brothers sued the maker of the toy company due to copyright infringement.

Furby's were also legally banned from federal buildings! Because they record what they hear.

@LordRain1031 - They don't actually record anything. They were supposed to "learn", but all that did was that the longer they were active, the more "words" they would use. It was a lot of panic over nothing.

[@frankschneider6156]

​@Ultra CNC Well Carpenters 1981 Thing remake of the 1954 (?) original was imho pretty good (the 2011 prequel not so much), same with the Alien Sequel by Cameron. And to be honest, the RoboCop remake looked pretty good, it was just ruined because they wanted to avoid R and went for a PG-13 rating. More violence, blood and a lot more cynicism and it could have been pretty good (yes the actual result wasn't, I agree). Same with the Total Recall remake. Good actors, excellent FX, good photography. Could have been pretty rad, but a bad, formulaic script lead to a just mediocre result, far inferior to the original. I guess the issue is not the "remakes can't work", but that most studies just use a formula for doing remakes instead of trying to recapture, what made the original so outstanding. I'm pretty sure you COULD do Gremlins 3 that would work if you put someone on the script who really knows what he is doing (eg Columbus/Spielberg), but that rarely seems to happen..

[@frankschneider6156]

​@Ultra CNC See ? I told you to go to law school and I also advised you to win the lottery yesterday. But did you listen to me ? No ? I'm just your old Mum who can be ignored. You even ignored me, when you were little and I told you to clean up your room. So don't blame me now, for you not listening to my advise.

[@KRAFTWERK2K6]

To be honest that scene about Kate's Character talking about how her father died made me love her even more because she has a very vulnerable moment where she shows a lot of trust to Billy in all this chaos and destruction and revealing something very personal about herself. Something she probably would not have done to anyone. And it totally fits her not loving Christmas and being very depressed around that time (as she mentioned it earlier in the movie). It left a huge trauma for her but it just makes her even more likable & believable because despite this traumatic experience, she still remains a very sweet, loving and supportive person. Someone you just wanna love and protect. Phoebe was perfect in that role and in all honesty i still have a huge crush on her.

[@Lesley_RedRhody]

I just mentioned that before I saw your comment. I agree! It would have made no sense for Kate to snap at Billy about hating Christmas without explaining it later in the movie. The scene I’m glad got cut was the ridiculous subplot about Mrs. Deagle and her stock-swindling dead husband, Donald. You can hear hints of this subplot on the news just before Mr. Wing comes to the Peltzer house etc reclaim Gizmo. On a side note, if Joe Dante had cut that scene, we wouldn’t have the hilarious callback in Gremlins 2! 💚🤣🤣💚

[@Lesley_RedRhody]

A lot of people are probably aware that voice acting genius Frank Welker led his talents to Gremlins. Not as Gizmo, of course. Most people know he was voiced by Howie Mandel. But I remember being stunned, as a kid, to see that the equally legendary Peter Cullen’s voice was also used in Gremlins!

When I heard about people trying to remove that tragic story scene from this movie, I was relieved in knowing that they left it in. I always thought the scene was essential in bringing the audience back to reality after all the shenanigans the gremlins caused. In my opinion the gremlins unleashing chaos is meant to be funny, but to show that chaos isn't okay there is that somber scene to pause the comedy and laughter for a little while.

I've always had an issue with the third rule, "Never feed them after midnight". This means they can only be fed up until 11:59pm the day they're born. It would have made more sense if the rule was, "Don't feed them from sundown to sun up".

[@biohazard429]

[@sumobowler3790]

the scene where Kate explains about her father dying makes sense because several times during the film she expressed her dislike of Christmas. when finally pressed by Billy to explain how anyone could dislike Christmas she needed a humdinger of a reason i always felt "never feed after Midnight" was too vague. don't feed between 12:00am and 6:00am, 7:00am, whenever would have tightened the script

[@TheBerk01]

I love how they covered it in the second movie 'but what if it eats before midnight, gets a sesame seed stuck in it's teeth and swallows it after midnight?' A gremlin then made rather timely interruption.

[@skyden24195]

FYI: the set of "Hill Valley" or "Kingston Falls" has been used in numerous other movies and TV shows (it is located in the Universal Studios backlot.) Off-hand I can think of "Bruce Almighty," "Groundhog Day," and "Elvira: Mistress of the Dark." The set's generic "town square" set-up is relatively easy to redecorate with alternate facades in order to give the set the look of different towns which, shockingly, all have the same street plans: basically, a square of roads, guarded externally by connected buildings/businesses, around a large, open, squared central area which is usually backed by a large, often government type building. (i.e. the courthouse/clock-tower of "Back To The Future.")

[@Lesley_RedRhody]

About the Kate scene: It would have been weird for Joe Dante to cut it out, because it was foreshadowed earlier in the film when Billy walks Kate home from Dorry’s Pub. Also, maybe it’s because I’ve watched both Gremlins movies countless times, but it bothers me that Kate is described as the barmaid at Dorry’s. She worked at the bank with Billy. Waitressing on weeknights was something she did for free as a favor to Dorry so he wouldn’t have to pay an extra waitress. The woman was a fucking Saint, which is why it was so funny to see Phoebe Cates play a complete bitch in Date With An Angel!

[@jizzaymz]

Rumours of a 3rd installment of this movie have been floating around forever. Personally I'd love it if they would make it darker instead of goofy. Also I think it would be awesome for a climax scene in the 3rd one if Gizmo purposely eats after midnight near the end of the movie in order to gain some size and strength for a final fight with Spike. They always pick on Gizmo once they turn into Gremlins and I think it would give him a fair shot if he turned into a good Gremlin. Honestly if you think about it; the other Mogwai are already bad in their Mogwai stage so why shouldn't Gizmo metamorphosize into a good Gremlin. I think it would be epic!

[@ChibiProwl]

That would be cool.😎

In the beginning of the movie you can see a movie theater and what they are showing. It's movies named "A Boy's Life" and "Watch the skies" which were working titles for both ET and Close Encounters of the Third Kind. A bit later in the movie when Gizmo multiplied and Billy has a friend come over in the background a curled up movie poster can be seen for Twilight Zone the Movie. A movie both Joe Dante and Steven Spielberg were directors for.

[@merman1974]

There are two other computer games based on the movie. The Atari 5200 and Commodore 64 got a Gremlins action game, which plays a lot like Robotron 2084. You have to stop the Mogwai eating popcorn (from a popcorn maker) and drinking water (there's a tap and puddles on the floor), and then shoot the Gremlins when they hatch. There is also a text adventure game called Gremlins - The Adventure, that was on several 8-bit computers. In the UK Gremlins got a 15 rating, it was only years later with Batman (1989) that there was the 12 rating as well as PG (Parental Guidance).

I loved this movie so much as a kid! Had a Gizmo figure that you could turn its head and move the arms. Man, I had that for ages, into my mid 30s. Who doesn't love Gizmo? If they can do it right, a remake could work. We know full well an ET sequel is really not needed. Don't ruin a classic that way. Now we have a commercial for Mountain Dew with Billy and Gizmo. Gremlins and A Christmas Story are two holiday movies I grew up with.... Video game adaptations of movies back then were...left much to be desired. Look at ET. Thanks Minty, This was a really good uploaded video. There was so much I didn't know so much about the behind of scenes and the inner workings. Kate's story about how her dad died has actually happened in real life. People have gotten stuck in chimneys. The sequel wasn't too bad, but it couldn't hold a candle to the original. Gizmo was originally to be the villain? Thank God that was changed, he's too cute for to be a baddie....
