    Gremlins were a folk creature among WW2 soldiers in the Pacific. During that time, planes and equipment would fail for no reason so pilots would blame it on "gremlins".

    • @Nick_CF
      @Nick_CF ปีที่แล้ว +2

      also the twilight zone episode popularized them too or for me it was this movie and the treehouse of horror episode

    • @blacktronlego
      @blacktronlego ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I don't think it was just in the Pacific, the British pilots fighting in Europe also blamed Gremlins.

    • @chrisbell9075
      @chrisbell9075 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yup, so that's why Mr. Fudderman kept talking about "gremlins". He didn't know what they looked like or that they technically really exsisted, but he had always blamed any electronic/vehicle problems on "gremlins" ever since he was in the military. There was a Bugs Bunny cartoon I think that is featured in, I want to say "E.T. the Extraterrestrial" that deals with gremlins from WW2 If I'm not mistaken. Tales of them go back decades..

    Maybe I'm showing my age here, but Howie Mandel voicing Gizmo isn't so shocking if you've ever seen the cartoon Bobby's World. Dude has an impressive vocal range.

    Yes, Christmas carolers used to exist as a real thing. Communal activities like that happened a lot more naturally before cell-phones and the internet were central to everyone's life.

    1. Keep them out of the light. They hate bright lights, especially sunlight.
    2. Keep them away from water. They multiply when they get wet.
    3. Don't feed them after midnight or they will turn into gremlins.

    Gizmo is too cute! Very much the same formula as Baby Yoda. Big eyes, big ears, cute noises, and little hands doing people stuff.
    He's just as cute in the sequel, the baddies are just as fun and gross, and you might even get a kick out of some of the wild cameos in Gremlins 2 (not a holiday picture, so watch whenever).

    This is just one of my favorite Christmas movies, one of my favorite horror movies, and one of my favorite movies of all time. Absolutely the best Christmas horror movie. A perfect blend of horror and humor. As well as one of the best horror movies of the 1980's.

    The original screenplay was a lot darker than the movie itself:
    The gremlins were going to decapitate Billy's mom and throw her severed head down the stairs.
    The Gremlins were also going to kill the family dog by electrocution.
    The Gremlins were even going to attack a McDonald's restaurant, but instead of eating the hamburgers, they were going to kill and eat the customers.
    The climax was going to have Gizmo turn into a gremlin in order to defeat Stripe, but Spielberg didn't like this ending and wanted Gizmo to be a the hero.

    • @madzec
      @madzec ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It version seem to be better only maybe not decapitate mom but just hurt her well like broke some bone or similar.....
      I especially like part with McDonalds too bad that it is not in movie....

  • @MaximumMadnessStixon

    The _Gremlins_ movies were personal favorites growing up, so it's always fun to see someone react to them for the first time. This was a really fun video!
    I'd definitely recommend checking out _Gremlins 2_ if it's not on your radar already. It's basically both a sequel to and a parody of the original. The director felt that the first movie was perfect as-is and didn't need a sequel, but he agreed to make it after the gave him complete creative control. So he decided to make it into a weird, self-aware meta-comedy. So it's basically just wall-to-wall gags, references, inside jokes and fourth-wall-breaking. I'd argue it's just as good as the original, but in its own, anarchic way.

    I recommend Ernest Saves Christmas. It's a Christmas classic. It has Douglas Seale as one of the best movie Santa Clauses ever. Plus, it's just really funny and heartwarming. It's got that certain Christmas charm that's perfect for the holiday. It's a perfect way to celebrate the Christmas season. I think Ernest Saves Christmas is one of the best Christmas movies alongside the Muppet Christmas Carol, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, It's a Wonderful Life, Miracle on 34th Street, and this one. I highly recommend checking out Ernest Saves Christmas.

    In a cartoon from Bug's Bunny in the 1940's. He's looking through a book and reads about what a Gremlin is. Also a Gremlin was a real thing during WW2. That's why the old man talks about Gremlins during WW2.

    Gizmo dolls were somewhat popular at the time. Of course, you didn't want your dog near it because there was a squeaker in it.
    And by the way there is a sequel made about a decade later called Gremlins 2: the New Batch. They lean more into the comedy element and we learn the hero Gizmo idolizes.

    I also forgot to mention a fun fact: The appearance of reporter Lew Landers means both Gremlins movies take place in the same universe as The Howling. Lew Landers also appears in The Howling as a coworker to Karen from The Howling. Apparently, Gremlins and werewolves exist together.

    Yes that is an actual Christmas song. It’s literally about the birth of Jesus Christ.
    It’s one of those songs where you have to pay attention to the lyrics to know what it’s talking about.
    The wise men brought gifts to the baby born in a manger including silver and gold, which is mentioned in the song.

    Back in the 80's, Howies Stand-up Routines included do a "Baby Voice"... There was Even a Cartoon he did called "Bobby's World" with his Baby Voice.
    You need a "Cute Shelf"... For a A Mogwai, Baby Yoda, Baby Groot.
    THERE WAS a Talking Knock-off Stuffed toy of the Gremlins called a "Furbie"... They Replaced the mouth with a Beek, so they could avoid marketing it as a ":Gremlin".

    Warner Bros. only got the rights to show Snow White because Disney was still in their "dark age"... maybe the lowest point of the company since Walt died... and also because Spielberg produced this and he was fresh off the E.T. and Raiders hype trains... so he could get pretty much what he wanted. The last big Disney and WB crossover was Who Framed Roger Rabbit... and that's also because of Spielberg. This will *never* happen again unless Disney buys WB/HBO.. which, honestly, at this point might happen.

    How does the old guy know they exist ? The term "Gremlins in the machine" dates back to the Second World War. I mean something's wrong with a machine but you can't explain what exactly. He mentioned WW2 at the beginning of the movie and gremlins being in all the foreign machines.
