[Video Vault] Gremlins 2 NES Promo Video!

Heyas all!

This is a very unique video featuring some original puppetry for the Gremlins 2 NES Video game.

I apologize if the Video Vault has been running slowly as of late, in the near future I plan on splitting the Video Vault into sections to speed up the load time on those pages, as well as aid in organization.

In the meantime check out this video!

• Gremlins 2 NES Industry Promotional Video (Official)
  This is a quite rare promotional video that was given to potential retailers and vendors for the NES Gremlins 2 video game. This type of promo video is actually quite common in many industries, especially the video game market. The biggest difference is the distribution method, this video was originally a videocassette mailed out with the flyer shown at 1:35, whereas most companies simply host a video on their website and then send an email out to prospective retailers or vendors telling them where to find it.
  Very nice find by Sacha Feiner!

Gremlins 3 Remake? Reboot? Sequel?

There has been a lot of rumors and discussion regarding Gremlins 3 actually being a remake or reboot instead of a sequel, and looking at the current Hollywood climate, it sure seems likely, but why?

Logically a remake would attract more theatregoers than Gremlins 3 would.
Fans of the gremlins franchise will see anything Gremlins in the theatre, be it Gremlins 3 or a remake/reboot. So those are guaranteed customers and do not factor in to the math.

However, as it has been nearly 20 years since we have last seen Gremlins in any form (commercials, games,  and DVD releases not withstanding) there is an entire generation of potential ticket sales that have never even seen Gremlins in the media.  Those customers are unlikely to see a sequel to a movie they never have seen before. Sure some might rent the previous films but they frankly do not have the legacy that other long-dormant movie franchises (like Ghostbusters) do.

Let’s try it this way:

Say there are a million people who are guaranteed ticket sales. They love the previous movies, and would absolutely see a new one in the theatre, regardless of it being a reboot or sequel.

Remake: 1 Million
Sequel: 1 Million

Now let’s take the rest of the moviegoing poulation, and pretend it is 10 million more people. They are undecided.

Undecided: 10m
Remake: 1m
Sequel: 1m

Of that 10m undecided a good number are going to be under the age of 18, as most people who make up the bulk of ticket sales are youth. Let’s number them at 7 Million.

Undecided Adults: 3m
Undecided Youth: 7m
Remake: 1m
Sequel: 1m

Here is where we diverge.

• Hot Cold Sodas and Cold Hot Popcorn (Fan Made Video)
  This is a clever fan-made video featuring the Hulkster in a techno remix with a bunch of Gremlins 2 clips, reinventing Hulk Hogan’s famous cameo in Gremlins 2: The New Batch. After a few viewings this track actually gets in your head pretty nicely. Thanks to Lucifer Sam for the heads up!

New Gremlins Reference found in…Gremlins!

While viewing Gremlins with a good friend who had not seen the film in its entirety before….(And still hasn’t, so if you are reading this, we need to set a date for the second half! bwahahah) I noticed that during the scene in which Billy takes Pete to his room to meet Gizmo, there is a rolled-up Twilight Zone: The Movie poster in the corner!

For those that are unaware of Twilight Zone: The Movie, it release in 1983, and contained a remade segment of “Nightmare at 20,000 Feet”. This was the story of a man afraid to fly who was played by John Lithgow in the film, and William Shatner in the original 1963 Twilight Zone episode.

The man quickly becomes terrified of the Gremlin he sees on the wing of the plane, which he believes will cause the plane to crash.

The short tale is one of the most famous Twilight Zone episodes and movie segments, so the poster’s appearance is yet another subtle “Gremlins” reference within the movie, chalked right up there with malfunctioning machinery, and an AMC gremlin appearing in the film’s introduction.

Another neat little connection, is the legendary Dick Miller (Mr. Murray Futterman in Gremlins) makes an appearance in another segment in Twilight Zone: The Movie

For those interested in checking out the original 1963 episode, here is the episode on youtube

The movie version with a genuinely creepy Gremlin creature….

So there you go!

Soon there will be a report of how it was to introduce Gremlins to my friend….and how long she can tolerate watching for every little detail that fascinates me with the movie. That would make her pretty awesome to be able to enjoy the movie while I point out neat trivia all over the place.

Finally, as always be sure to vote on MovieMob for a good friend of Gremlins Online: Andre Meadows! He has brought Gizmo on to the show with him a few times and is never afraid to show how awesome of a Gremlins fan he is. Keep up the great work Andre, and we always want to see more Gangsta Gizmo!
