I love this movie so much. One of my all time favorites.

OMG it's Lionel Luther (Smallville).

It was killing me that you guys didn't recognize Tuco OR Saruman.

Ben Berrell

They just wanted to be civilized

Same thing with the sequel to Forrest Gump. They wanted the author to write a second book so they could make into another movie. So he wrote a book so stupid that they wouldn't want to adapt it and they did not.

Love you guys, hope y'all react to "The Man From UNCLE" (2025) one day

I would 100% watch a Maple and Arianna drinking cooking stream/video. Shocked they didnt callout Saruman being in this movie. Never saw this Key and Peele sketch, never thought I'd see a parody of a satire but here I am lol.

This was Joe Dante's response to corpos wanting to franchise Gremlins. He didnt want to franchise it, he didnt even want a sequel because he felt like the first one ended perfectly. He knew a sequel meant it was only going to be made just for profit and he just wanted to move on. The only reason why he agreed to do it was because the studio guaranteed to him having rare complete creative control over the entire movie. So he took it ran with it and parodied the first movie and made satire of the entire entertainment industry.
