After the first movie was a surprising hit ($11 million budget and $200 million box office), Warner almost immediately went to the director, Joe Dante, and asked him to do a sequel. Dante originally said no, wanting to move onto other projects and also thought that the first had a good enough ending on its own. Warner spent several years trying to find someone to do the 2nd film, finally crawling back to Dante and begging him to do it. Dante agreed with two conditions, complete control and 3x the budget. His entire approach to the movie was "fuck it", we got a glorious mess and a box office flop, just how Dante wanted it.
It's funny how it ended up being awesome lol I think it probably plays a lot better now
We got the movie we deserved, but not the movie we needed at the time
I almost died when J.L said "they are on their ass" and then the guy runs by with a fricking Gremlin biting his ass!!
Accidental foreshadowing!
Same here. Brought me to tears!
@@NocturnEternal yeah LOL that was so damn perfect :)
@@Jayce71 Right?!
When I was a little kid, my grandma had a stuffed Gizmo, and I loved him so much that she told me I could take him home. This was probably around 1986. I STILL have him.
I SPAT OUT MY APPLE JUICE AND DIED LAUGHING WHEN YOU CALLED THE GREMLIN CARDI B!!!! 😂😂😂
the look on your face when "the movie" stopped and the gremlins were doing hand puppets, was priceless
The big tall scientist guy is indeed Count Dooku. Its Christopher Lee. He was also Sarumon in Lord of the Rings, Dracula in several horror films. He was part of the Hammer Horror movie series way back in the 50s, 60s, and 70s. He was also a badass. He was all over the place during the war and served with special forces although he would never speak about it. He told Peter Jackson how someone should act when stabbed from behind (like his character in Lord of the Rings who is stabbed in the back)....you dont cry out, said Lee....you gasp...uh, uh....He knew because he had been stabbed and stabbed people.
BWHAHAHA! Jay: "Shut up! We got a CARDI-B GREMLIN?" "It IS Cardi-B!" "Oh, she bout to TAKE the d**k!!" & finally his Weinstein comment during the first debut scenes with Greta, the first real female Gremlin, were ALL SOOO FUNNY! JUST GOLDEN! I was ROLLIN! 🤣🤣🤣🤦🏻♂️
“Crazy eyes and fur everywhere” 😂😂😂😂😂
“Gizmo gonna have to learn how to fight.”
I smiled hearing that because I knew what was coming.
If you get the chance, look up the alternate VHS scene for the film break. It was redone as a tape getting jammed and replaced Hulk Hogan with John Wayne having a shootout against the Gremlins.
Iv only ever seen that version once
"sound alarm" is possibly the _greatest_ joke in a movie *ever* !
The day I don’t belly laugh at that joke is the day I’m ready to move on from this life.
I laughed so hard when you said that they were on their ass and right then a guy runs by with a gremlin literally on his ass. 🤣🤣🤣
“I’m sad cause we lost again” not really, there was one left. I call that a win.
HOLY $*IT!!! I've watched this film a million times over and never realized until now that the messenger was a young Tuco Salamanca 7:15 🤯🤣!
He's in Training Day and Blood in Blood Out as well.
It's Dracula!
No, I mean it's Scaramanga!
No I mean it's count Dooku!
No I mean it's Saruman!
No I mean it's CHRISTOPHER F***ing LEE!
Woot woot.
(He was a more badass human being than all those made up characters combined. RIP you legend)
This may be the most "just plain fun" movie in history😅
"How batsh!t do you want it?"
"Yes--wait, did you say bat?"
“He been clappin’ Gremlin cheeks” is not a sentence you hear every day…. :)
Cardi B “Why won’t you commit?!” 🤣
Robert Piccardo is an amazing underappreciated actor.
@@ym5891 He looks like James Taylor (presently).
Knew him originally from Star Trek as the Doctor. So I always find it funny seeing him diagnose the cough from Mr Wing as being fatal.
This reminds me of that episode of Star Trek Voyager when Robert Picardo ...
"State the nature of your little green emergency."
The movie "legend" with Tom cruise... Robert picardo plays meg mucclebones. Check it out
That projector failure scene in the cinema was awesome.
This movie is actually a parody of the original film. Joe Dante didn't like the idea but did enjoy the fourth wall breaking in almost every scene
Like it or not, it's extremely creative & they should let creators have full control more often.
The movie critic guy was Leonard Maltin (the actual movie critic) who hated the first Gremlins movie
And yes, sock garters for men's socks are a real thing. Most often worn with suits :D
That’s awesome he actually agreed to be in the 2nd one even though he didn’t like the first one
@@J_EOMReacts Leonard Maltin is a movie critic who really LOVES movies, unlike some other critics.
@@J_EOMReacts Right?? think he recognized what they were going for, which was mayhem and lampooning a lot of conventions, and was all for it. It's always nice seeing people with some authority not take themselves too seriously.
Also, watch the Key & Peele Gremlins 2 pitch meeting sketch. It’s exactly what you said you’d like to see (and the writers confirmed it was basically what really happened after the fact)
Yeah that sketch is funny as hell!
I would love to see a react to that!
That skit is so spot-on 😂
The movie off the change 🙌 👏 😎.
Those clowns couldn’t be more unfunny
Dude, you're the only one who caught on to this. These Gremlins look like old Movie and Cartoon Characters.
The Laughing Googly Eyed one is supposed to be Daffy Duck, the Bucked Toothed one is Goofy, The Old Mob Movie one is Edward G. Robinson.
Gremlins 2 was sooooo fun. I mean obviously the first is a classic but this movie had way more fun that it deserved to have. Such a treat :D
Gremlins 3 is supposedly in the works! If they do it right, it could be amazing and personally, I'd love to see Gizmo on the big screen again. I loved Gizmo when I was a kid. I even named one of my puppies after him. We dressed him up for Halloween one year by placing a red bandanna on his head and around his ear so he'd look like the Rambo version of Gizmo from this movie. He was a Shih Tzu though and since we had to keep some of his fur pulled back out of his eyes he ended up looking more like a ninja wearing a red wrap around his head with most of his hair in a ponytail. He was the sweetest puppy though. It's been 20 years since he passed but I still miss that baby. So, yeah, I love me some Gizmo!
Red Letter Media did a really good proposal for Gremlins 3 where Clamp from Gremlins 2 is President and the Gremlins get on Twitter and somehow go through the internet to cause nationwide chaos
They won’t…it’ll be some communist/woke propaganda, like everything is now, and why everything that come out now is TERRIBLE
You have to watch Key & Peele's skit on the storyboarding for Gremlins 2. One of the best skits!
Showed it to J literally as soon as he watched this. LoL
@@EOMReacts May be a perfect recreation of the storyboarding for the movie. Made me laugh through the whole skit!
Are we all in agreement we need a gremlins 3
Love your T shirt
Monster Squad for life.
Oh snap! I forgot Al Lewis was in this movie. RIP Grandpa Munster.
Apparently it's canon that the Spider Gremlin is Stripe from the original reincarnated. That's why he knows who Gizmo is right after being born and why he already looks so Gremlin-like to begin with.
The beef was real bc he was on him from jump
According to the novelization, Gizmo's "offspring" are named Daffy (the crazy one), George (the grumpy looking one), Lenny (the bucktooth one), and Mohawk (self explanatory). Then there's also Brain and Greta (both self explanatory).
There was a Gremlin alive at the end, so technically they haven't lost. Enjoyed this so much, thank you!
That should be a legacy sequel. LoL
@@EOMReacts "Rise of the Planet of the Gremlins" lol
The gargoyle gremlin is still alive too & immune to sunlight!
@@ESO_PRIME The gargoyle one is encased in concrete, it'd probably suffocate or starve to death in there regardless of sunlight due to being unable to move.
@@MarcusBritish true, but maybe Gremlins have some amphibian traits and can live off their own internal oxygen for decades ?!?!
Loved this movie as a kid. So fun and ridiculous. Great movie lol
Damn dude, your recollection is on point. Cop from terminator, I never would have gotten that.
Lol when it works it’s top notch but when it don’t it’s junkyard bound
"Cardi B 'bout to rap." The SCREAM that I SCREUMPT!!!
When the movie started glitching in the theater, that was one of the greatest surprises of my young life.
Best scene of the whole movie is when Hulk Hogan is yelling at the gremlins and he says "Do you think the Gremsters can stand up to the Hulkster!!" LOL
💀
"Sound Alarm" ...gets me every single time 😀
Every time. LoL
Not sure if you recognized who the main boss was in this, John Glover, who also played Lionel Luther in Smallville.
I am absolutely loving every single one of your reactions. Please don't ever stop.
I love that Joe Dante basically went full Looney Tunes with it because he really didn't want to do a sequel.
15:00 "Gizmo gotta learn how to fight." :)
You're right, the scientists was the guard killed in T2. They used him and his twin brother. I also believe that was Dooku, and he was also Dracula at one point
Yup,Christopher Lee was Dooku,as well as Saruman,Dracula,Frankenstein and The Mummy.
The guy who made the Gremlins for the first film was unavailable for this film, so they reached out to make-up and special effects legend Rick Baker. You've seen his work in the first Star Wars, Men in Black, The Nutty Professor, Harry and the Hendersons, and Michael Jackson's Thriller video. In my opinion, it's a huge improvement. Gizmo is much cuter and more expressive here and all the other Mogwai have distinct looks (instead of all looking the same, as they did in the first film).
It's never said on screen, but the grumpy looking one and the buck-toothed one are named George and Lenny after the two main characters from "Of Mice and Men". The googly-eyed one is named Daffy, after Daffy Duck. Finally the sinister-looking one is named Mohawk and it's implied that he's a reincarnation of Stripe, the main gremlin from the first film, which explains why he likes torturing Gizmo so much.
Please react to Key and Peele's sketch on the brainstorming session for planning Gremlins 2. It is hilarious!
The scene where Gizmo escapes and is walking. That still stuns me
The "end of civilization" video is based on a real thing.
When Ted Turner created CNN, he not only intended it to run 24/7 forever, he even had a special video made that would be aired in the event of the end of the world, presumably by the last living person in the building. It's on RUclips and while it's not fancy it's quietly unsettling.
Haha, now you've gotta watch the Key & Peele sketch about Gremlins 2. It's hilarious!
In case you didn't recognize him, the mean researcher was Christopher Lee who played Saruman in Lord of the Rings.
Video-calls "facetiming" is actually an old concept and technology. It was originally developed for the Deaf.
Holy crap I never knew Raymond Cruz was in this. The guy playing the mailman also came out in blood in blodd out, breaking bad and training day. This is one of the few times Ive seen him where he is not playing a cholo
Seen it when it came out when I was 11 and yes we all looked back thinking the movie burned up. Hulkamania was at its peak at the time
Considering that their are multiple Gremlins still alive at the end of this film, I'm Counting it as a Win!
That was a real movie Critic and he did not like the original Grimlins. Nice to see them get there revenge
For me, the highlight of the movie is the legendary Christopher Lee as Dr. Catheter. He was, indeed, Count Dooku and, for me and many others, the greatest Dracula ever on screen. The voice of the Brain Gremlin was provided by the equally legendary Tony Randall who could do just about anything effortlessly.
And don't forget Christopher Lee was in Lord of the Rings as Saruman.
@@giannag4581 we know
"This is the best WTF movie I've seen". Should be the motto for the Gremlins franchise. There's rumors a new Gremlins movie is in the make. And with the new Beetlejuice movie coming out it makes me so happy that our childhoods are making a return.
Gremlins is such a great franchise of films. They are currently working on writing Gremlins 3. It's gonna be produced by Spielberg's Amblin Ent. They haven't announced a director yet, but I hope Joe Dante agrees to come back and direct the third one since he directed the first two. Joe Dante is well known for many great cocaine cabinet 80s films like both Gremlins, Innerspace (1987) and The Howling (1981) plus many more great films. Chris Columbus (who directed the Harry Potter films) is who you thank for creating the Gremlins, he came up with the stories/characters and wrote the scripts. :) Ah the 80s...where cocaine and creativity ruled. ;)
Big dog I’ve been waiting for a third gremlins since I was 7, hopefully it happens one day but I really hope they still use the practical effect and puppets instead of cgi.
Me and one of my homeboys was talking about that earlier. Make a 3rd or reboot it with a more serious horror tone with practicals. It would be amazing
I love this movie so much 😆. I was super hyped to see your reaction to this, and I was definitely not disappointed. Lol
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hell yeah the scientist guy is count dooku. Christophe Lee. Dude is a legend. Before he was a dope actor he was in the special forces during world war 2.
You mentioned that the Futtermans had to have died in the first movie. At the end when the Peltzers are watching tv you can hear the newscast mention the Futtermans being at the hospital, so I don’t think anything was retconned for the sequel.
Well it IS Rare for the late Dick Miller to survive a movie.
The look on ur face when the movie messed up cracked me up!!! 😂
Not just the better Gremlins but this is a top 10 sequel of all time imho. @JL loved seeing you light up on the best parts.
Imagine being in the theater when the film messed up.
I was there. We certainly believed it was actually malfunctioning.
@@ullc1877 So was I. Everyone did. Lol.
I don't think I've heard so many "Shut the fuck up!" as I have with this film XD
This one is one of m y favorites. It's an example of seeing the sequel before the original and I love how over the top they got with this one.
9:53 the janitor in this scene is none other than John Astin, Mr. Gomez Addams from the original black and white The Addams Family. If that doesn’t do it for you, then it is the adoptive father of one Samwise Gamgee (Sean Astin)! Sean Astin’s mama is Patty Duke as well. Pretty cool.
When I was in the Navy I wore shirt-stays. They clip from your socks to the bottom of your dress shirt. Keeps the socks up and the shirt down.
Take a drink every time he says STFU in this video
NOTE: EOM cannot be held responsible for any alcohol related accidents.
"Ain't shit list part 2" would be fun as well.
He been really clappin’ gremlin cheeks! 😂🤣
I wish i'd watched this originally in the cinema, if only to get the full effect of The Hulkster cutting a promo on the Gremlins when they messed with the movie!
A major tv network, I forget which one specifically actually had a special broadcast planned for the end of the world. it eventually leaked onto the internet.
when you said dudes clapping gremlin cheeks i almost died laughing
The gremlins cant really kill gizmo since hes the original host and basically need him. The only reason they bully gizmo is because they might be somewhat jealous they cant be normal like him? Since its extremely rare for a mogwai to end up like gizmo.
My great-aunt would put this on every time we went to visit her for New Year's greeting in January. Either this one or the first one. As an adult, it's a bit scary but mostly fun and silly. As an 8 year old who didn't really understand what was happening, the gremlins were TERRIFYING. Can't believe my parents let us watch that at such a young age when they knew what the movie was about.
11 hour wait? Damn it! I'm looking forward to this
Your impression of the writers room doing the lines was very funny and probably true
We have in Branson, MO a 80's themed museum called RetroMania. It has a Gemlin's theater in it..........
Those socks straps are just mens garters, men wear their style of garters too. Before elastic was invented garters were needed on socks to keep them up. After elastic people still sometimes wear them with formal or fancy (or cosplay) attire as a fashion style.
This by far my favorite reaction channel, thank you J and Blank you guys keep up the amazing work, love to the co pilots
Much appreciated!
You have got to watch the Key and Peele skit about the meeting where they brainstorm this cocaine madness.
I think this is the most times you've said "Shut the F@ck UP!!" in all your reactions 😅😅😅
I know I'm late to the party with this one. But Joe Dante the director originally absolutely refused to do a sequel, then the studio went a couple years or so trying to find a new director for it, failed and went back to Dante and was like, ok if you do it what do you want and Dante was like, lots of money and able to do ANYTHING I WANT. They said yes, and we got this masterpiece of a parody of the original itself, and an anarchistic comedy. Just perfect up and down. So many jokes, references and little things. Gotta watch more than once for sure.
So happy this happened. This has to be the most “SHUT THE FUCK UP!”s in a reaction. Someone please count it?
I believe someone had it at 16. I believe that would be a new record. LoL
Gremlins 3 has been in post production hell for years!
But in the meantime I recommend the movie Critters. It's not Gremlins but it's kind of like Gremlins, it was made to capitalize off the success of the first Gremlins movie, it's just more horror in it but it's still really funny too.
Just imagine if in that genetics lab one of those things the drank was a hedgehog hormone, only they all drank it. Then you get Critters.
Of the 2 movies this was my fave. Greta, the (now) female gremlin is my favorite character. lol
Those leg suspenders are definitely a thing, they're called shirt stays because they keep your shirt from getting untucked.
You should see the key and peeled bit that is ALL about the pitch for gremlins 2... It's amazing
You being grossed out by the melted gremlins had me 🤣
@19:00 when the gremlin started impersonating the receptionist and throws the coffee pot at John Glover, I used to laugh my azz off and keep rewinding the tape to that exact part. When the gremlin yells “coffee?” And the pot shatters, I cry laughing.
Thanks for bringing back some great memories!
"I bet it smelled like chitlins in there" 😂
Holy SHIT! The delivery messenger guy. The one who was whistling Gizmo's song! I knew he looked familiar so I looked him up and that's Raymond Cruz AKA Tuco Salamanca! I've seen this movie a lot of times. Loved it as a kid. But it's been years since I've seen it and didn't know he was in it! Also I just laughed really hard at the Cardi B Gremlin line.
3:18 Every time I say "Rambo" I have to say it like Gizmo haha
Did you realize gizmo turned into rambo with the bow and arrow 🤣🤣🤣
Did you notice that the delivery guy who told Billy about Gismo was Tuco from Breaking Bad
This is the first time I am seeing this. Your videos always make me smile. I am sitting here waiting to see if I have to go to the hospital with red and swollen eyes, but just listening to this is making my situation better. Thank you for these videos.
Hope you feel better and hope everything is alright!
“We are on they a$$”… a few seconds later. 👀 For Real.
Fell out my chair laughing when you though the movie messed up! 😂😂😂😂
The sock suspenders are called shirt stays. They keep your dress shirt flat and tucked in to your pants.
If someone were to ask me for a fun movie recommendation, I would instantly say Gremlins 2.
