Holy moly. This movie was NUTS. Enjoy our reaction to GREMLINS 2: THE NEW BATCH, our first time watching! Directed by Joe Dante and starring yet again Zach Galligan and Phoebe Cates, this movie was by far the craziest and weirdest sequel we've ever seen.

Hey I have some things to show you related to Grimlins. Do a youtube search for Gremlins animations in the Unreal Engine 4 and 5. Type in "UE4 Unreal Engine Gremlin Dances to Thriller". And don't tell me that a studio can't easily make Gremlins of any type and be creative with the open mind about it after seeing that video mentioned, if one person as a fan can do that.. imagine a studio.. and that doesn't even cost money if you have people already capable of modeling, animating, creating the sounds and so on for each Gremlin. Think about the level of movies and video games with the Unreal Engine 5, you have Unreal Engine 4 and 5 youtube tutorials, especially UE4 tutorials on just about any game mechanic, and the Epic's marketplace with free content to get started, the youtube tutorials are easy to make things like mud tracks, weather changes, climbing with a character, anything for your game easily.

And then check out making a Gremlin in Blender and other modeling programs, you will want to find videos on this on youtube, I found videos where people actually did have Gremlins they were modeling and showing how they were doing this from other modeling programs. Once you model it, place it in the Unreal Engine 5 and it will be like the video I mentioned above where the Gremlin is dancing, and just animate it, give it sounds, maybe even control it like a video game instead of just an a.i. or just movements for scenes as seen in that video.

You didn't notice an actor in Gremlins 2, the guy was the hologram doctor made of Photon particles in the Star Trek: Voyager show, check out the doctor from Star Trek: Voyager, you will see.
Movie trivia: When the movie was released on VHS, they cut the scene of them cutting the projector film, and replaced it with them causing the VCR to glitch into static, and changed the TV channel to old westerns. The "hero" was John Wayne (old footage with a dubbed voice impression) shooting down the gremlins.

Gizmo is what i believe they call an immortal in the movies lore, basically yes a very rare good gremlin (1 in a million) who is effectively ageless... unfortunately the regular gremlins live short lives, and they know it and its one reason they are little shits most of the time.
The theme of "gadgets" and "technology" is used in both films because the myth of Gremlins started as a fun way to explain why machinery went haywire or stopped working in WW2.. so the idea of having a whole building full of "new" technology for the Gremlins to mess with was kinda brilliant. Also, the Looney Tunes connection isn't just becuse director Joe Dante is an uberfan of Looney Tunes and was personal friends with Bugs Bunny animator Chuck Jones (hence the intro).. there's actually a classic Bugs Bunny short from WW2 where Bugs battles a gremlin, and another LT short called Gremlins From the Kremlin where russian gremlins harass Hitler (who is flying a plane for some reason).

Actually that is incorrect. Quote unquote "Gremlins" was a term to created out of ignorance to blame unknown causes of mechanical failure *LONG BEFORE* strictly ONLY World War 2 as you have stated. It was invented at the dawn of the earliest technology as an explanation for things like electrical shorts, breakdowns and circuit malfunctions for ALL technology the entire world over in all countries since the very first mechanical & electrical devices were invented. Later it was found that electrons passing through certain elements (such as copper filaments) actually ate away at the material and caused everything from short circuits to electrical fires. This would later be used to create useful inventions such as the fuse & fuse box. The fuse had a thin copper filament that if enough electricity were to pass through it all at once it ate away at it killing the fuse and stopped the supply of electricity to the building it was protecting preventing electrical fires from burning it down to the ground.
I legit feel Gizmo had his mischievousness ironed out of him by the store owner. His violent streak appears but more in his entertainment choices.

Leonard Maltin famously panned the first Gremlins movie. Joe Dante was a little disheartened, but asked Leonard to do a cameo. Daniel Clamp is a combination of Ted Turner and Donald Trump. The Smart building where nothing works is an ode to all of Mr. Peltzer's gadgets from the first movie.

Now about the timezone thing, they experience the 'jet lag' effect and would need a few days for their metabolism to get in sync with the 'new' midnight. It's their circadian rhythm.. but why should I write to fill in the plot hole of the movie?

Joe Dante has a lot of films that are highly underrated: Piranha, The Howling, Explorers, Innerspace (aka 80s Ant Man), The Burbs, and his ultimate love letter to monster movies, MATINEE!, starring John Goodman. None are quite this crazy but all have a quirky Dante sense of humor and are worth a look.

I watched this so much as a kid, I loved it. Haven't seen it in decades. But it was always my favorite. Love all the creativity and the self awareness. This movie just didn't give a fuck. They just put everything in it.
A fun theory as to why Gizmo’s spawn have far more little resemblance to him opposed to the first film is the fact the water leaked down on Billy’s painting and markers and contaminated it and why the outcome was different.
The New Batches names are Mohawk(who is said to be Stripe reincarnated), Daffy(the insane one), George(the angry one)and Lenny(the dumb one with buck teeth). George and Lenny are named for the characters from "Of Mice and Men". The gremlins remember the events such as the microwave nuking from the previous films, which is why they destroy it.
24:05 This is a parody of the 1925 silent film of Phantom of the Opera, which would have still been fairly well known to film buffs in the 80s.
FYI, Gizmo holding the bow and arrow is absolutely a toy. They sold it at Best Buy… I have one! It comes with a few accessories.
I remember standing outside the cinema in the rain with my Mom waiting to see this movie on release day. It was a cold wet summer's day. I lived in a tiny town and our theatre only had 1 screen and not many seats. We almost made it for the first showing of the day but they stopped the queue with about 5 people in front of us. So that meant waiting 2 hours in that rain for the next showing. Finally after standing waiting the people started to come out. A group of about 5 teens, 18-19ish came out and started shouting out spoilers at us very cold, very wet, queuing folk... My Mom could't take it she walked over to the loudest one and punched him right in the face. He instantly fell to the floor his nose bleeding like crazy so my mom kicked him has hard as she could in the face and his eyebrow split open like soggy tissue paper. There was blood everywhere. His friends had ran off and all the other the people in the queue were clapping and cheering my Mom. The ticket lady had seen what happened as we were so close to the front and she gave us free entry and free ice cream. The moral of that story? None.. My Mom is a bad ass who loves movies and hates spoilers. hehe
I was 7 when I convinced my dad to take me to the cinema and watch this (full disclosure as a little kid I got scared as shit and didn't make it to the end) - I can tell you that 4th wall break in an actual cinema as a small kid had a lasting effect on me. honestly got me traumatized for quite a while. Ever since I managed to face that Gremlins (both) has been one of my absolute all time favourite movies and it's on my christmas movie playlist ever since! So yeah... That 4th wall break in cinema! ... that was effective and amazing
Man i would replay this movie so many times as a kid. Gremlins was my absolute favorite.

Gizmo was a huge toy after the first when I was a kid even though by today's standards it's not a children's movie. Part of the change in this sequel is that it was a change in direction with the new rating system in place.
Seeing as you recognized Tuco Salamanca, did you catch that Dean Norris (aka Hank Schrader) was one of the SWAT team members that came rushing in at the end of the movie? He shoots a puddle of gremlin goop and says, "It moved, sir".

Two things you missed: 1) Robert Picardo is Billy's jerk supervisor whom later starred as the EMH Hologram Doctor on Star Trek Voyager 2) The Ginger twin scientists played a brief cameo part in Terminator 2 Judgement Day (1 was a security guard in the psych ward Sarah Conner was at & the other was the T-1000 replicating him)

I figured the absolute shock from the Gremlins speaking fluent English was hilarious, but then Hulk Hogan just took the cake out of nowhere.
Those twin scientists appear in Good Morning Vietnam. That is a great movie as well.
The Theater and video versions had different segments when the Gremlins mess with the program. In the Theater version, Hulk Hogan is shown to be in the theater and he bullies the Gremlins into putting the movie back on, and the vhs version had John Wayne.

The talking Gremlin is voiced by the late Tony Randall from "The Odd Couple" tv series-He played Felix Unger
I had a copy of this that I taped from a free weekend of HBO when I was a kid. The VHS also had Christmas Vacation on it. I watched those movies over and over when I was 12 to 14.
4:28 These twins play the security guard and the T-1000 double in 'Terminator 2' they also appear together in 'Good Morning, Vietnam'.
The twins in this movie were also in Terminator 2 (the correctional officer that the T-100 replicates and spears through the eyeball). They're identical twins and their entire thing is appearing together for stunts and gags.

Well, Robert Picardo has himself been a green she-monster. He played Meg Mucklebones in _Legend,_ which is one of the scariest movie monsters I've ever seen.
Did anybody yet mention that the two lab twins were the same actors who were in Terminator 2? One played the guard getting the coffee, and the other played the T-1000 mimicking him, then stabbed him through the eye. Aside from the CGI of the morphing T-1000, no camera trickery in that shot. Just two identical twins. Similar to the scene in the abandoned auto garage later on, where Linda Hamilton's twin sister played her "mirror reflection", so to speak, when they were working on fixing the T-800.
