Re: Movie Club Discussion!
Initial impressions:
Well, thats a cute little fucker isn't it. I want one. And I would obey the rules, which is somthing no-one in any film ever does.
Oh, my. So very eighties. I've met the two human heels of the film and they just could not be more perfect 80's movie villains. One is a rich old lady who hates doges and the poor, and the other is a yuppie corporate climer who's skeeving on the obvious love interest. Classic.
Do I spot chekovs sword?
Aw, Gizmo is so cute. I want one.
WHY ARE YOU DILIBERATLY GETTING IT WET?!?!?!?! FOOL!
That's right. Leave the little dudes with a stranger without telling him any of the rules.
Thats a cameo from The Time Machine. I spotted that. I like it.
So that video the science teacher was showing says that smaller critters lose heat quicker. I wonder if that's going to be relevent?
Black dude dies first!
World least effective Jump Scare! They're still kinda cute, tho aren't they?
They're throwing darts at Gizmo. I do not like this. This is not cute.
Ok. These things are obviously very intelligent, setting traps and using communication. This makes me wonder about the ethical issues of keeping them as pets. Never mind the practical problems, like being homocidal, but... Like, you're ensaving a sapient species... that not cool, guys.
Jesus Christ, gremlin in the blender. That might be the most horrific shit I've seen so far.
And then Knifing one to death? Who are the badguys here? Casue so far the brutal murders all seem to be coming from the humans, while the gremlins are certainly agressive and mischivious, but so far of little threat.
And now the microwave. Fuck me this is like a goblin snuff film.
Chekovs Sword!
See that's what I mean, that one gremlin got the drop on her by hiding in the tree, and attacks her for a good 20 seconds, but where she walks away with a couple of scratches, no worse than what a cat owner might recieve on the reg, that gremlin has a horrific burning death in a fire, with a baleful scream of torment. Like, it seems like the gremlins are hopelessly outmatched in this film in terms of danger and aggression. I feel like I should be routing for them to find away to overcome the brutal humans.
And there it looks like the gremlins have found away to overcome. Gremlin in the pool! Go Stripe! Fuck those humans up!
That army of gremlins makes me want to play Overlord.
All right, this is more like it. Army of gremlins actually doing shit. Fucking with traffic lights, Tossing that bitch outta the window, driving snow ploughs through buildings. I'm not convinced they have equalised the bodycount, but they feel more like a threat now.
Gremlins in the bar, getting crunked up. Contender for best scene of the film....
FLASHER GREMLIN. I don't know if that makes the bar scene better or worse.
Gremlins singing HiHo. I really am routing for these little bastards.
Awww, they got blown up. Boooo. Down with humans!
Why doesn't the snow make them multiply?
Ok, Gremlin with a chainsaw. That's pretty scary.
Gizmo in a toy car. That's pretty fucking adorable.
Jesus Christ, Stripes death is fucked up, man.
How did the makers of Furby's get away with this?
Re: Movie Club Discussion!
Apparently the scene with Gizmo was added for the puppeteers. They hated using the Gizmo puppets because they were small and kept breaking down.
Perhaps it was too cold so that snow didn't melt? Believable if Gremlins are cold blooded or something.
The bar scene with the gremlins was my favorite. I love how Stripe is like this fucking boss of the gremlins with a girl at his side and a gun at his hip.
In regards to all the violent deaths, apparently Gremlins was one of the reasons the PG-13 rating exists!
Re: Movie Club Discussion!
That doesn't make me any happier. Gizmo was too cute!
Maybe, but if they were cold blooded the snow would have bigger issues than getting them wet, they'd shut down. I am thinking way too much about the biology of these fictional animals.
Stripe with his moll was oddly bad-ass.
Thing is, the most violent shit happened to the gremlins!
