Uh, by Baba-Lou	Feb 9th, 2007 06:11:48 AM
I think you'll find that Donna Dixon's first movie appearance was in Doctor Detriot (with Dan Ackroyd) but I could be wrong. oh, and first?

Worst news ever by abiggerboat	Feb 9th, 2007 06:38:31 AM
I think jaws must be the ultimate "they shouldn't have made a sequal to" film. I mean, the second instalment wasn't bad - it just wasn't needed! And doing a STV goonies or lost boys sequals would be REAL disrespectful to their amazing predecessors. This, my fellow film-lovers, is dreadful news!!
You mean they couldn't get Joe Dante to come back? by Gozu	Feb 9th, 2007 06:40:36 AM
The guy's doing "Masters of Horror" episodes! It's not like his dance card is full! I think Dick Miller's still alive, isn't he? There's your movie right there, Murray Futterman vs. The Gremlins: The Final Showdown!
Uncle Buck 2. by THE FOOT THAT KICKED THE CRADLE	Feb 9th, 2007 06:42:04 AM
CGI the Candy, CGI Culkin to look younger (like X3) or get Martin Lawrence, chuck him in fat suit (he loves that) - it could work.
Gremlins 3? by Franklin T Marmoset	Feb 9th, 2007 06:42:11 AM
As long they can keep the same sense of lunacy from parts one and two, I would watch this - CGI or no. In fact, I think it would be pretty cool to see computer-fied Gremlins, as long as they put plenty of imagination into it.

Gremlin 3 and Goonies 2 by DirkD13"	Feb 9th, 2007 07:16:24 AM
Should definitely be mid-budget theatrical releases. Joe Dante, Dick Donner, Zach Galligan, Phoebe Cates (schwing), and ALL the Goonies gotta eat, so why not throw them a big fat bone. The other sequels/remakes can eat the shit out of my ass with a spoon.
Why striaght-to-DVD sequels make loads of dosh by DirkD13"	Feb 9th, 2007 07:25:43 AM
I've got friends, none of them particularly well-endowed in the IQ department, who only need to see the number 2,3,4 etc in a film title for it to be reason enough to rent or buy it. These are the kind of guys who are connoisseurs of the worst kind of films, as they don't particularly care about performance, dialogue, style, mood, theme etc as long as there's an explosion or pair of jubblies on the screen every ten minutes. That and Vern's reviews.
As if Jaws 3(D) and "The Revenge" by Fecal Debris	Feb 9th, 2007 07:26:46 AM
didn't leak enough warm briney urine over the legacy that was the original "Jaws." They might have something if IF Roy Scheider signs on, because he's the man. But the script would have to be good, and I'm guessing Roy won't sign on unless it is good. What about Dreamscape 2? Look Who's Talking 5? Cannonball Run Strikes Back? Ghoulies 4? Remo Phillips 2? C'mon get your priorities in order.

Dante's Piranha vs Gremlins by Nice Marmot	Feb 9th, 2007 07:32:29 AM
You'd watch it.
Rev is right by kingoflight	Feb 9th, 2007 07:34:15 AM
Gremlins should only be put into production if its a prequel, also it should be bit more darker than the first, the second was bollocks. Goonies 2 the adventures of chunk and sloth, should have them adventure to meet Micheal jackson just so he can say to the others that he has meet him. Jaws was shit...
yeah I heard this already by misnomer	Feb 9th, 2007 07:36:56 AM
but I have no intentions of buying them. Lost Boys 2 without the coreys? without kiefer? thats even gayer than the first one. I used to always wonder (even as a kid) "why does he have a picture of a man on his wardrobe?" To be fair...this stv sounds better than schumachers "lost girls" idea. how shit would that have been? gremlins - I dont care about. Great example of a movie that has not aged well at all, and really isnt that good when watching it today. Funnily enough the sequel stands up a bit better...mainly due to its tongue in cheek approach. Gremlins, Goonies, etc.....the time for a sequel has waaayyyy passed. Spies Like Us was a great movie, and still is funny. As long a dan and chevy get a cameo, Im all for it.

Dante wont do another Gremlins by triplefive	Feb 9th, 2007 07:49:37 AM
he has gone on record as saying he made Gremlins 2 with the purpose of killing the possible franchise.
How about a Tremors 5? by Logo Lou	Feb 9th, 2007 07:50:22 AM
I must say I've actually enjoyed the Direct to Video Tremors 2-4. Mainly, because even with smaller budgets, a lot of the original writers & producers were still involved somewhat and kept the spirit of the original.
Mori, didn't Disney REALLY pioneer this? by Logo Lou	Feb 9th, 2007 07:52:29 AM
"Low-budget sequels to some films there probably shouldn’t be sequels to." They were animated, sure, but that counts.

Correct. Donna Dixon was in Doctor Detroit... by TheNorthlander	Feb 9th, 2007 08:28:01 AM

STD? by TheNorthlander	Feb 9th, 2007 08:33:05 AM
Yeah and then there'll be STBD or STHDDVD. I dunno. They're called movies because it's short for "Moving Pictures", although technically if it's digital it's not moving pictures anymore (especially since we're leaving interlaced behind for progressive). Maybe since the frames are more like flipping than moving through a lens now we should start calling films "Flippies"?

Somebody coined the term STD... by Onomaki Forp	Feb 9th, 2007 08:37:22 AM

my take on this 80 fad... by theonecalledshoe	Feb 9th, 2007 08:40:48 AM
"What The Hell?!" Indeed. There's probably a load of people who'd say lines to the extent of wishing that movies of today were like yesteryear (excluding DEEP BLUE SEA 2-that's just a unsurprised sequel). THAT shouldn't be conisdered to much with all the vanity of sequels and ripoff/non-original writing. Don't give me that franchise crap either. Those movies paid their dues back in the 20th century. For anything else, there's a likilihood of gossip to the amount of such movie will be LIKE some of the older stuff by small margin. throws .02 into the 'help get harry into shape' can

Spies Like Us by Captain Mal	Feb 9th, 2007 09:02:26 AM
Is part of the Chevy Chase trifecta, which also includes "Fletch" and "National Lampoon's Vacation." Don't remake it. We don't want to see anyone other Frank Oz playing the incredulous instructor.

Gremlins on a Plane by lonecow	Feb 9th, 2007 09:17:18 AM
Snakes on a Plane would have been so much better if the snakes had been replaced by Gremlims, and it was called Gremlins 3. Then you could just make a bunch more Gremlins movies with the Gremlins in different locations.

Spies Like Y'all by Pound Sand	Feb 9th, 2007 09:32:52 AM
A southern reboot with Jessica Simpson, Jeff Gordon and Morgan Freeman. Too niche?
The Chevy Chase Trifecta by HypeEndsHere	Feb 9th, 2007 09:34:11 AM
is Fletch, National Lampoon's Vacation, and Caddyshack. Spies Like Us is quite good, but not worthy of the true Trifecta.

As far as I could tell from the article the Gremlins 3 idea was rejected by the studio as being too expensive.

sequels/remakes to the following 80's movies: Supergirl, My tutor, All of john hughes movies, baby the last dinosaur. the care bears. Things change. labyrinth, Henson pictures were going to Make dark crystal2;the power of the dark crystal but that has been scrapped. Comet quest. Explorers. The princess Bride.(dont even think about it, mel smith did not have a happy time making it coz of the amount of times he got hit on the head by andre the giant). Stuff the killer ice cream movie(joke). Killer tomatoes. And finally after looking around to see who will replace aardman and nickleodeon, Katzenberg starts to eye up Cosgrave Hall and then the desecration starts with Chorlton and the wheelies movie. In CGI quickly followed by a cgi version of Dangermouse. Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooo
Swear to God, I was just thinking about how they should by DeCypher44	Feb 9th, 2007 10:12:08 AM
make a sequel to Spies Like Us. Have Chevy and Dan be the ones calling the shots with two new recruits. I'm thinking Kal Penn and Ryan Reynolds. Would be SICK!!!

a two hander is by emeraldboy	Feb 9th, 2007 10:22:58 AM
a dramatic device in which there are no others actors around accept the two principle leads. It works on tv better then in the movies. A very good example of this was the christmas day episode of Eastenders over 20 years which was seen by 30, million peoople. The Then owner of the queen vic pub was dirty den watts(leslie Grantham) and he was married to Angie(Anita dobson, wife of Brian May) their on screen marriage was very volatile and so on christmas day 1988 den and ange had the pub all to themselves, were she told den that ange told den she had cancer and that lead to Eastenders greatest and finest hour, when den discovered that his wife hand lied to him about having cancer. Those who live in the UK and who visit this site will know well what followed. Consumed by rage after his wife treachary. Den delivered his christmas day bombshell present to his wife. A letter from his solicitor seeking a divorce from his wife and the way he said Happy christmas, with all that rage, bile rising on the tip of his tongue. It Was eastenders best moment and will remain so.

If Spies Like Us is to be a staright remake... by jimmy rabbitte	Feb 9th, 2007 10:37:39 AM
...then my vote is they have to stick faithfully to the original; and dig up MC Hammer (or some other late 80's/ early 90's has been) to re-record that half-assed theme song Paul McCartney did for the original. Bad idea? ...well so's remaking this movie.
Studios Cashing In On Brand Names Through Sequels by ScreamingPenis	Feb 9th, 2007 10:43:10 AM
How sad! How long can they get away with this? Thankfully, some big time directors control the sequel rights to their "art," to prevent this. But even Martin Scorsese gotta eat sometimes. SPIES LIKE US actually holds up much better than a lot of that other '80s crap. For shame.

well by mrbong	Feb 9th, 2007 11:26:35 AM
they promised that they would be back at the end of Silverado, as i recall, but thus far there has been no Silverado 2. i say go ahead, make all these sequels. a low budget follow-up to a presumed dead sequel is not always bad - Rocky Balboa, anyone? the "Gotta Eat" comments were not funny to begin with, and all those making them are rather lonely, depressing retarded types. As they are the same monotonous idiots who have just enough money to ensure that Jack Black still gets work, i suppose they will not stop any time soon.

Goonies vs Gremlins wouldn't work. by TheNorthlander	Feb 9th, 2007 11:40:20 AM
The Goonies are cool, Gremlins are cool, the thing that made Gremlins 1 so great is the innocent small town christmas setting and uncool protagonist. How bout Gremlins vs Gilmore Girls instead?
So, no news on by Fried Gold	Feb 9th, 2007 11:40:26 AM

Goonies 2 should be by kurdt420	Feb 9th, 2007 12:07:23 PM
The exact same cast as the original. They should all still live at home and still have weekly Goonie meetings down at the Goondocks. Technology never caught up with them so all of Data's gadgets are still slinky's and chattering teeth. Mouth still wears a Purple Rain t-shirt and so on. It will be like they never grew up and moved on. Like Clerks 2.
Lame by Darth Melkor	Feb 9th, 2007 12:08:34 PM
I'll rent Jaws 5 if it's direct to DVD, but I mean.. It's JAWS. They could make a REAL movie out of it and put it in theaters. Why waste it? And Spies Like Us was great. Another pointless remake of a movie they'll never top in a billion years.
Caddyshack in the Trifecta by Captain Mal	Feb 9th, 2007 12:31:00 PM
I'll grant that "Caddyshack" is more classic than "Spies Like Us," but I don't really think of it as a Chevy Chase movie. He's terrific in it, but he's not the star of the show.

Jaws sequels by Wormie	Feb 9th, 2007 12:48:58 PM
Jaws: The Revenge ignored Jaws 2 & 3 already, so a Jaws 5 with Roy Scheider would ignore some things which have already been ignored anyway (or something). All of the Jaws sequels sucked, and so do DTV movies.

erichaislar by DirkD13"	Feb 9th, 2007 01:06:10 PM
Yeah, I've got Roadhouse 2 but I got given it in a double pack with the cheesy 80's mini-masterpiece that is the original. Gotta love a film about bar fights that manages to work in two huge explosions and a monster truck.I also deliberately bought a nifty slice of sci-fi action thriller called Retroactive, starring James Belushi, M. Emmet Walsh and Nancy Travis. It's easily the best straight-to-video/DVD action film I've seen. (If you're reading this Vern I'd like to know your thoughts on this). Actually, where is Vern? This is a straight-to-DVD TB.

He felt the original movie was perfect, and that a sequel would just be a lame attempt to make more money off merchandising. It wasn't until the studio gave him full creative license and a "huge" budget that he agreed. He didn't want to just remake "Gremlins", so he went the more comedic route, with a little hint of societal responsibility tossed in for good measure. John Glover did an amazing job as the Donald Trump-like real estate mogul. If the DID do a Gremlins 3, I'd want him to be back, but with a horrid comb-over this time. He could toss a gremlin into the sunlight, point, and say "You're FIRED!" ;)

BRING ON GREMLINS 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! by GibsonUSA Returns	Feb 9th, 2007 05:48:10 PM

I just got Hudson hawk at Wal-Mart over Christmas for like 5 bucks and you know what it's not as horrid as I remember, in fact it's a lot of fun, really over the top and not at all what you're expecting but a lot of fun, espically the climatic battle with Danny Aiello firing a fricking rocket launcher
GOONIES and GREMLINS crossover film!!! by wackybantha	Feb 9th, 2007 06:16:22 PM
That would be so filled with awesomeness-ness!!! Gizmo and his Goonie pals try to do stop the EVIL Gremlins from doing stuff like...going to see old Disney animated films and picking their nose in local taverns and , uh...killing people.
Monster Squad 2... by Alientoast	Feb 9th, 2007 06:58:03 PM
...The Search for Wolfman's Nards. You know it to be true! Btw, Gremlins on a Plane -would- actually be halfway decent for a DTV Gremlins movie. It would get props for recreating the infamous Twilight Zone episode. They could have Shatner cameo and say "There...is...gremlin...on...t he.. ..wing...of the plane!". Then he would turn to John Lithgow, whom would go to get the stewardess...who is a gremlin! Wacky hijinx ensue!

Casting for SPIES LIKE US remake... by Darkman	Feb 9th, 2007 07:43:39 PM
Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn. Don't even fucking deny this. Or perhaps Owen Wilson and Ben Stiller. Or, wait...howz about a curveball: Owen Wilson and LUKE Wilson. And forgive me, but this MUST be said: CGI Gremlins = Nipples on Batman.

You did see the 2 gremlins movie no?
Tarantino to write and produce all of these by McGsStepson	Feb 9th, 2007 10:22:29 PM
In addition to the Friday the 13th prequel and these, he also has ideas for The Four Amigos, Angels Sitting Courtside, Turner and Hooch Rising, and The Brothers Karamozov 2.
Rob Zombie's Gremlins by TORTURE PWN	Feb 9th, 2007 11:08:30 PM
The only things that will be the same though will be the title and character names.The Gremlins themselves will actually be Ghoulies and the plot will be lifted wholesale from Troll.

What a travesty!! by JimmyLoneWolf	Feb 10th, 2007 02:10:27 AM
How could they!? This has to be false rumors...I sure hope so! Gremlins 3 without Dante and STV? Please...whoever says they're looking forward to this need their head examined. I don't mind CGI Gremlins as long as its on the big screen and Dante's involved (its not like they have to be 100% CGI...but it would eb cool seeing them much more physically active). Do whatever you want with Spies Like Us and Jaws 5 (yeah, like THAT has a chance of being good), but keep your filthy direct-to-dvd hands off Gremlins and Goonies. Money-grubbing Bastards.
Oh yeah, one other thing... by JimmyLoneWolf	Feb 10th, 2007 02:16:43 AM
Stop blaming Rocky Balboa for this! That movie was released IN THEATERS. It has nothing to do with this outrage. On top of that, it was a good movie. So can it!
Gremlins series is a not the classic Goonies was. by GibsonUSA Returns	Feb 10th, 2007 02:29:21 AM
Gremlins 2 was essentially a harmless novelty movie. Gremlins 3 coming to DVD is not an outrage...it's not the level of Back to the Future 4 coming to DVD or something....if it's a harmless funny, loud critter movie that gives us 1.5 hours of smiles, then what's the big deal? BRING ON GREMLINS 3!
Since we're talking Gremlins by BannedOnTheRun	Feb 10th, 2007 03:31:44 AM
Can I feed my feed my Gremlin after 11 p.m. during Daylight Savings? I never figured that one out. And how early can it have breakfast?
You can feed your Gremlin anytime you want, Banned. by TheNorthlander	Feb 10th, 2007 05:59:52 AM
It's your Mogwai you shouldn't feed after midnight.
Eastenders by emeraldboy	Feb 10th, 2007 07:26:20 AM
I used to like it. but I dont like it anymore. It wont survive long without old misery guts Pauline fowler. By the way I know who killed her at christmas. It is not who you think it is. I just wish it would end along with Corrie. Primeval starts tonight on ITV. One other piece of news, John Simms is in talks to play the master on Dr. who. He said they offered me the part and I said Why not. Us tv is doing a version of life on Mars. Itll be crap.
Oh Lordy pie by Venkie007	Feb 10th, 2007 08:08:34 AM
A remake of Spies Like Us is not something the general public is not clamoring for. I've taken my own head count: there are three million completely pissed off people not wanting this remake. For real. Now if they somehow could rope Ryan Reynolds to star in it, then I take back everything I just typed.

Wasn't there a Jaws 5 script in the works years ago? by ELGordo	Feb 10th, 2007 08:50:22 AM
It took place in Waterworld type of world where cities were half under water because of the melting polar ice caps and huge sharks romed the sunken streets. That sounded pretty cool and visually it would be awsome.
movies sequels that shoud have never been made by rdsxfan8	Feb 10th, 2007 09:20:46 AM
along time ago me and my friends used to have a list of movies that didnt require a sequel yet one was made anyway. we used to say we wished we could just wipe these movies out of our consciousness. a goonies 2 or a jaws 5 ( unless roy jumps on board) would most certaintly qualify for this list. here are some of the ones on that list just to give ya an idea where im heading with this Caddyshack 2 ( replacing rodney with jackie mason was just a bad movie overall) ghostbusters 2 ( seemed to me like bill murray kinda phones this one in) why dont they just leave the old movies alone. they werent that great than 9 with the exception of jaws) but why drudge up the past. its like dating a girl who was just like your old crappy ex gf, ya know the one you dumped cuz ya couldnt stand her. Theres no need to go there and they shouldnt go there with these movies either

I feel the original Gremlins is a masterpiece... by JimmyLoneWolf	Feb 10th, 2007 06:55:49 PM
Seriously, as an "innocence-to-experience" tale its nearly on par with E.T.! Think about it, this is a GREAT coming-of-age story about the encroaching darkness of adfulthood replacing the gentle whimsy of childhood. Remember Phoebe Cates' monologue about her father's horrible death...MOST IMPORTANT SCENE IN THE MOVIE! When offset with the loving relationship between Billy and HIS dad, that scene takes on a horrific resonance that is actually more disturbing than ANYTHING those Gremlins can come up with. Thats what the film is saying: that the Gremlins are simply the realization that there IS a dark side in this world, and that love and devotion can be corrupted into defeat, disappointment, and evil. So there it is...thematically, Gremlins is airtight and damn near perfect. And damnit, Gremlins 2 was a whole lot of fun...and a great corporate satire!!
Gremlins 3: Gizmo's Revenge by r2hunter	Feb 12th, 2007 11:37:56 PM
A friend of mine wrote that on one of my high school binders 15 years ago. He must have been psychic. Will Howie Mandle take time off from that embaressment of a game show to voice Gizmo?
