    FUN FACT: The old man who keeps Gizmo is played by Keye Luke, one of the first Chinese-Americans to make it huge in the Entertainment Industry. He starred in a lot of film and television roles, he helped found the Screen Actor's Guild, and he painted the murals in Grauman's Chinese Theater in Hollywood. Pretty impressive resume, if you ask me.

    I think it's very fitting that Kingston Falls has a "town built on a backlot" look if you consider Gremlins to be a throwback/homage to the creature features of the 50s and 60s, only with modern technology for the effects. Remember, Joe Dante got his start with Roger Corman; Gremlins isn't that far in tone from the kind of movies Corman was known for back in the day.

    James: Oh, hey little guy!
    Gremlin: Hej ho!
    Also, fun personal story. My mom was in college when this film came out, and apparently back then she looked a lot like Phoebe Cates! Several times people came up to her asking for autographs because of it😂 I think that may be part of the reason she named my older sister Phoebe🤣

    Really love that James finally covered this movie and I'm glad he did.
    This movie is one of my favorite movies ever and I really love this movie. The effects are great in this movie and love how each of the gremlins have each personality to them. Gizmo is the best thing ever and so iconic.
    This movie actually has some deep themes into it as well and it was done pretty well.
    Really crazy Jonathan banks aka Mike Ehrmantraut himself is in this movie.
    Btw the dragon breath joke is actually pretty creative how they did it. And like how James is dressed like Rand.

    I am of the firm belief that just because a movie takes place on Christmas, doesn't make it a Christmas movie. You can set a story at anytime of the year to serve all kinds of narrative purposes. I feel like a Christmas movie needs to specifically be about Christmas
