From what I heard the director didn't want to make a sequel but the studio pushed and he only agreed after they let him take it in new direction. Also, the film critic was Leonard Maltin (pretty well known at the time) who trashed the original in his review so it's a fun meta cameo.

    The four new Mogwai all had names, although they were never said on screen. The grumpy looking one and the buck-toothed one are named George and Lenny, because their appearance and personality are taken from the two main character in "Of Mice and Men". The googly-eyed one is named Daffy (after Daffy Duck, obviously) and the scary one is named Mohawk. He's apparently a reincarnation of Stripe from the first movie, which is why he likes torturing Gizmo so much.

    I love this movie. It's sheer, unadulterated chaos. The Looney Tunes opening is so appropriate, and sets the tone right from the start.
    I saw this at a sneak preview, the night before it officially opened. We were *completely* suckered in by the "film breaking" bit.
    The studio really wanted a sequel. The first raked in cash, and they saw dollar signs. The writer didn't want to do it. They told him we'll give you creative freedom. He said okay, they want a sequel? Let's give them one that completely deconstructs the franchise.
    From what I've seen, people who were wanting a movie like the first one usually don't like this movie as much. I'd put your review in that category. Other people, such as myself, thoroughly enjoy the "nudge nudge wink wink" aspect of this, where they are basically spoofing themselves, and letting the audience in on the joke from the opening on the film.
    You may have seen those twins in Good Morning Vietnam. If you haven't seen that one, you should.
    Robert Prosky was in a lot of movies over four decades. Some of them were pretty high-budget, dramatic films, but I'll always remember him from this and Last Action Hero.
    Gedde Watanabe seemed to make a career out of playing over the top stereotypes of Japanese people throughout the 80s and early 90s, starting as Long Duk Dong in Sixteen Candles, and in a prominent role in Weird Al's UHF. Younger audiences won't recognize him because it was voice only, but might know him as Ling in Mulan and Mulan II.
    Ah... the great Christopher Lee. Count Dooku? How about freaking SARUMAN! And of course all of those great Hammer horror films. But for a really good one, check out the original (not the Cage remake) of The Wicker Man.

    Jaby, you and a cinepal should see the first two seasons of Jackie Chan Adventures. It's been so many years since I last saw them but I can pretty much guarantee you'll hear an Ai-Ya at least once per episode. Sometimes more. There's a gong in the intro. The last 3 seasons were fine but I think they had budget cuts that affected them. Most people fell off after season 2 as well. It's basically a show where the Rush Hour character has the lead role. (not literally, just how he acts.) It's just a beloved show of the late 90s.

    Hello Jaby & Vivian!😊 Christopher Lee (Doctor Catheter) is known by a certain generation as UK's Hammer films "Dracula" in many films in the 60s - 70s. Hence, the scene with the Bat Gremlin. The twin dudes were also in "Good Morning Vietnam". Robert Picardo (Forster) was actually a pretty nice guy as the EMH (Emergency Medical Hologram) on TV's "Star Trek: Voyager". The Brain Gremlin is voiced by American actor Tony Randall probably best know from the 70s TV sitcom "The Odd Couple".

  • @jasonbrennan9918
    @jasonbrennan9918 10 дней назад +5

    Okay, so for starters, PG-13 didn't exist when the first Gremlins was released. In fact, Gremlins is one of the films credited with the creation of that rating.
    Beyond that:
    - According to the novelizations, Mogwai are a genetically modified alien species who were designed to be supremely adaptable. Unfortunately, they proved a little too adaptable, easily transforming into the destructive and nihilistic gremlins.
    - Daniel Clamp was envisioned as a synthesis of Ted Turner and Donald Trump. Interestingly, in the original script he *did* have political aspirations, but they were mostly cut for time.
    - Meh, Kate didn't spend a lot of time with Gizmo in the first film and when they were together it was pretty dark... Incidentally, the 'main' mogwai this time around were: George, Lenny, Daffy, and Mohawk.
    - Joe Dante is a very meta director and Gremlins 2 is basically his personality on film. Apparently part of Lee's reason for appearing here was that he enjoyed working with Dante on 'The Howling'.

    Tony Randall voiced the smart Gremlin. He's best known for being one half of the duo on the show The Odd Couple.

    "With more control over the film, Dante engineered a project that he later referred to as 'one of the more unconventional studio pictures, ever.' Dante included some material that he believed Warner Bros. would not have allowed had they not wanted a sequel to Gremlins. Allowed to break a number of rules in filmmaking, he also later claimed it was the film into which he had put the most of his personal influence. Dante imagined Gremlins 2: The New Batch as a satire of Gremlins and sequels in general."
    It's so weird precisely because it's a meta-satire of itself.
    Personally, I think the reason this is even remembered as fondly as it is, is no small part due to nostalgia. Because after enough years to get over that it wasn't a serious follow-on sequel, you end up letting the humor sorta wash over you, like with B-movies.
    I for one would like to see a Gremlins 3 that's a return to the much darker and haunting horror-leaning comedy horror like the first film than this very comedy-leaning comedy horror. More of the mythos of the mogwai.

    The VHS Version of this movie had a different in-between version instead of Hulk Hogan you got an edited version of John Wayne and someone doing an impression of him as his voice. It ends by killing three gremlins and telling us to go back to the film.

    I love these versions of the gremlins
    The bucktooth one is Lenny.
    The one that has the cigar in his mouth that was always hanging out with Lenny was George.
    Mohawk was the very evil one
    The crazy one was Daffy.
    Tony Randall did the voice of Brain(the gremlin that could talk in complete sentences).
    Howie Mandel returned as the voice of Gizmo.

    The reason Daffy, the googly eyed Mogwai/Gremlin sounds so much like Salacious Crumb (Jabba's cackling pet) is because they were voice by the same performer.Mark Dodson. Sadly, he passed away last month.

    17:31 She apologized because she realized she had made a mistake and took responsibility for it. In the first movie, she was around Gizmo enough to recognize him even after not seeing him for a long time. The reason why she was distracted is because she saw Billy with that other woman, but that wasn't his intention nor his fault. So, in conclusion, it was her fault for not realizing that the Goofy one was not Gizmo and she took responsibility for that mistake.

    It was 5 years between these movies, by which time the Gremlins fad had faded. But the studio really wanted to make a sequel, they tried but couldn't get ideas for a movie. In the end they reapproached the director Joe Dante - he didn't want to make another but the studio said he could do anything he wanted. - And he did.

    I wish the younger generations could just enjoy something without trying to look for some kind of political or racial issue. I actually enjoyed the reaction and probably should’ve stopped once the movie ended. People actively looking for that kind of thing, for whatever reason, is a big part of the problems of today. Just enjoy the movie for what it is.

    The first Gremlins and Raiders of the Lost Arc were both rated PG before there was a PG-13.rating. Both movies heavily contributed to the need for a new rating category.

    The question I've always had since I was a kid was when it was ok to start feeding them again. 8am? After all, it's always technically "after midnight". Except right at. 😆

  • @TheVas76

    Red Dawn, the very first PG-13 movie, came out in August of 1984. Gremlins came out in June. So, the rating wasn't created yet.

    They make a lot of references. A lot you probably didn’t get. In both the first and second films.
    They also purposefully take the Mick (hence the Gong in the first film)
    It’s making fun of the tropes and popular stuff of the times.

  • @alicestevens8291
    @alicestevens8291 10 дней назад +1

    It's pretty good for an advert. Like the first I think the personal work life Billy scenes were not needed. It is good fun. The meta aspect of this does a lot for it. The camera work is great as in the first and is doing as much heavy lifting as the puppetry and practical effects and of course those are cool. In fact I got to see these puppets from both in person and believe me they even more cool up close. And the video game this sold was a lot of fun as well.
    Oh and props to Don Stanton and Dan Stanton. I forgot about that. A little Easter Egg there for the Terminator 2 fans.

    Gremlins 2 is a parody of Gremlins and a studios "MORE" mentality when it comes to sequels. So all of the questionable accents/character choices are all by design. Or...they were doing a lot of coke when they made the film.
