- 1:59Speaker 1: I am back and it's Christmas time and we are
- 2:03Speaker 1: finishing up grab ones. How are you doing?
- 2:06Speaker 3: I'm doing good. Happy to be here.
- 2:09Speaker 1: Where we left off. In case you don't remember, it's
- 2:12Speaker 1: even drinking too much? Is they like where I think
- 2:20Speaker 1: we left off?
- 2:21Speaker 3: Is Billy have hatched?
- 2:24Speaker 1: Billy's working at the bank for the first time.
- 2:28Speaker 2: We just got through the first four minutes, then in
- 2:31Speaker 2: one hour that actually probably has happened in some cases.
- 2:36Speaker 1: So they have hatched. And I've noted at this point
- 2:41Speaker 1: the confident of confidence of everyone in this movie that
- 2:44Speaker 1: everything is going to be fine is off the charts.
- 2:47Speaker 1: And I don't know if this is like a small
- 2:50Speaker 1: town white people thing when things were better for America,
- 2:55Speaker 1: or if it's like a pre internet thing, but no
- 2:58Speaker 1: one would be thinking everything He's gonna be fine.
- 3:02Speaker 2: I think this second, especially the teacher, the second you
- 3:05Speaker 2: see that eggs, that's what it looks like. We need
- 3:13Speaker 2: to get every student out of this building as soon
- 3:15Speaker 2: as possible.
- 3:16Speaker 3: It should be the fun.
- 3:18Speaker 1: This reminded me of like John Stewart and the faculty.
- 3:21Speaker 2: Yes, yes, exactly, exactly, great clump. So he's the mister
- 3:28Speaker 2: Hanson is teaching a class. The egg erupts and screams
- 3:33Speaker 2: during the class and the kids don't notice, which is interesting.
- 3:37Speaker 2: So also when the when the eggs open, they emanate
- 3:41Speaker 2: this green light, which is also amazing.
- 3:45Speaker 1: And the eggs are filled with smoke somehow.
- 3:48Speaker 2: Yes, it's amazing. Classic eighties class ends in perfect timing.
- 3:55Speaker 2: I love when mister Hanson is getting the kids out
- 3:57Speaker 2: of classroom. He's like, hey, everyone, have a great Christmas.
- 3:59Speaker 2: If you want to bring me a gift, I love
- 4:01Speaker 2: some Super Bowl tickets or rolls Royce that would be great.
- 4:04Speaker 2: Tell your parents I'd love one. I think it's so great.
- 4:09Speaker 2: So mister Hanson, after he calls billy Is, sees that
- 4:15Speaker 2: the egg is empty and cannot find the actual contents
- 4:22Speaker 2: of the egg. So he hears it bustling around.
- 4:26Speaker 3: Here's it moving?
- 4:28Speaker 2: He sees or can tell the one of the gremlin
- 4:31Speaker 2: is hiding under his desk. And I mentioned in the
- 4:34Speaker 2: last part where when the gremlins speak. We should be concerned,
- 4:38Speaker 2: especially as an adults.
- 4:41Speaker 1: Yeah hee, he holds the candy bar out and you
- 4:45Speaker 1: hear the gremlin say under the desk, yum yum. And
- 4:49Speaker 1: I'm like, if anything, they would be speaking Mandarin. How
- 4:53Speaker 1: did they learn English?
- 4:55Speaker 2: And also just to say like yum, and also just
- 4:58Speaker 2: be like he can't also see this thing. He is
- 5:01Speaker 2: just feeling it out. He has no idea how this
- 5:05Speaker 2: thing looks. And then you hear a bite mister mister
- 5:11Speaker 2: Hanson panics. Cut to Billy going to the school and
- 5:17Speaker 2: finds mister Hanson's body on the.
- 5:19Speaker 1: Ground, dead with a hypodermic needle in his body because
- 5:25Speaker 1: the gremlin was mad that mister Hanson drew blood from
- 5:28Speaker 1: it when it was still like a furry magua.
- 5:31Speaker 2: They don't forget what happens in the pre people stage, yep.
- 5:35Speaker 2: So Billy is like, holy shit. He's looking around the room.
- 5:40Speaker 2: He sees in mister Hanson's desk that the gremlin scratches
- 5:45Speaker 2: his hand with its claws, grabs the apple.
- 5:49Speaker 3: Seized the apple as a fruit.
- 5:51Speaker 2: And it is too healthy and discards it immediately in disgusted,
- 5:54Speaker 2: which is hilarious.
- 5:56Speaker 1: Apple suck so it takes a bite and is discussed
- 6:00Speaker 1: did and throws it back because.
- 6:02Speaker 3: It's so pissed off.
- 6:05Speaker 1: It many better UH vices and items to consume.
- 6:11Speaker 3: It is not the candy bar that he was expecting.
- 6:15Speaker 2: Billy goes to the nurse's office to clean his wound,
- 6:18Speaker 2: and the gremlin pops out of the cabinet. This is
- 6:20Speaker 2: the first shot of a full blown, transformed, trans.
- 6:30Speaker 3: Changed gremlin.
- 6:31Speaker 2: Next stage gremlin, UH incredible design truly shows like a
- 6:39Speaker 2: great like how you how they would the next stage.
- 6:42Speaker 3: In the revolution?
- 6:44Speaker 1: Fantastic disgusting and also they're all such dicks. One move
- 6:50Speaker 1: that they love is they just grab the nearest object
- 6:53Speaker 1: and throw it at a person's face, which is what
- 6:55Speaker 1: they do to everyone.
- 6:57Speaker 2: They throw everything and everyone. They don't care, it's just
- 7:00Speaker 2: saying the first thing. They do.
- 7:03Speaker 1: Love that, And Billy realizes, like, oh fuck, my mom
- 7:07Speaker 1: is at home with an attic. It's I'm filled with
- 7:10Speaker 1: these things. There's like twenty five in my attic right now.
- 7:15Speaker 2: One of them hilariously killed your teacher with a punctuation
- 7:18Speaker 2: of don't hurt me again by stabbing him in the
- 7:21Speaker 2: ass with a fucking syringe.
- 7:23Speaker 3: So they're smart.
- 7:24Speaker 2: I mean, obvious Billy wouldn't know that about the syringe,
- 7:27Speaker 2: but like, obviously they're smart and he's Billy rightfully, so
- 7:30Speaker 2: it is like holy shit. So Mom is making cookies
- 7:34Speaker 2: and upstairs, Gizmo is attached to a dartboard and the
- 7:40Speaker 2: Gremlins are throwing darts at Gizmo. Mom just hears this
- 7:47Speaker 2: carnage and she just I love.
- 7:49Speaker 3: She just grabs a knife. She's like, this is not
- 7:51Speaker 3: going to be good.
- 7:52Speaker 2: This is gonna be bad.
- 7:53Speaker 1: I think that. I think that, like to make a
- 7:56Speaker 1: wrestling analogy, we were talking about the hardcore title, but
- 8:03Speaker 1: then you were talking about Paul Hayman more like was
- 8:06Speaker 1: the ECW heavyweight title right now, Gremlins so far as
- 8:10Speaker 1: far as ECW Champions has been like Bobby Lashley, And
- 8:14Speaker 1: this scene is where it really graduates to a more
- 8:19Speaker 1: like a Tommy Dreamer or I mean, we're not we're
- 8:23Speaker 1: not we're not extreme extreme yet, but yeah, because they
- 8:28Speaker 1: show Gizmo being tortured on a dartboard by the Gremlins.
- 8:32Speaker 1: Poor Gizmo, and Billy says, Mom, get out of the house,
- 8:35Speaker 1: and you see the phone wires being torn by the Gremlins.
- 8:41Speaker 2: I my favorite thing. I was like, so these things
- 8:46Speaker 2: have grown this intelligent. Immediately they know homewiring, which one
- 8:50Speaker 2: is the phone corps to pull it out, they throw
- 8:53Speaker 2: Gizmo down the laundry shoot to trap him.
- 8:57Speaker 1: Yeah, and then they know how to use the vinyl record.
- 9:00Speaker 2: Player, they definitely do. They also know how to use
- 9:05Speaker 2: a lot of the home home equipment. I think the
- 9:09Speaker 2: scene is like, easily, in my opinion, the best scene
- 9:12Speaker 2: in the entire movie, because it's just so good at
- 9:14Speaker 2: being scary. Because eventually, like you mentioned, like when the
- 9:18Speaker 2: Gremlins go to a certain level, they do become humorous
- 9:23Speaker 2: and the only thing they can really do is gross
- 9:25Speaker 2: you out.
- 9:26Speaker 3: But like this is when they make it.
- 9:27Speaker 2: Like the Gremlins turn on the record player it's playing
- 9:31Speaker 2: Silent Night, and the Mom's like, oh shit, these things
- 9:33Speaker 2: are insane.
- 9:34Speaker 3: Like it's like it's not even like.
- 9:35Speaker 1: It's not playing Salent I was playing do you hear
- 9:37Speaker 1: what I hear? Oh?
- 9:38Speaker 2: Sorry, do you hear what I hear? Which is even
- 9:40Speaker 2: more fitting you.
- 9:41Speaker 1: So they chose a song specifically to fuck with her, Yes,
- 9:47Speaker 1: And I have to reference that in your which is
- 9:50Speaker 1: why you just said this in your That's right, Christmas,
- 9:53Speaker 1: twenty five minute Power hour quote unquote our power twenty
- 9:57Speaker 1: five minutes. You edited this where they play Silent Knife
- 10:03Speaker 1: by the Dickies, which is maybe other than the montage
- 10:10Speaker 1: was stepp into Christmas is the best part of like.
- 10:12Speaker 1: It's it's unbelievable. If you ever see this video that
- 10:15Speaker 1: Ryan made, it's so fitting.
- 10:18Speaker 3: It's it's alreay Gremlins. It works for them.
- 10:21Speaker 1: But the reason this doesn't like scare me, I'm going
- 10:23Speaker 1: to disagree and push back with you here is the
- 10:26Speaker 1: mom dominates the gremlins in the most brutal ways.
- 10:31Speaker 3: The mom exactly. I mean, the mom has the mom.
- 10:35Speaker 2: If they have to have a champion in the movie,
- 10:37Speaker 2: it has to go to the mom because after what
- 10:40Speaker 2: happens the scene. Yes, I just think the tension of like,
- 10:43Speaker 2: at this point in time, besides the one in the
- 10:45Speaker 2: nurse's office, you've not seen the rest of the gremlins.
- 10:48Speaker 2: You've seen what one can do. There's now five in
- 10:50Speaker 2: this home with the mom. The mom is so great
- 10:54Speaker 2: enough to know, Like again, she grabs the knife and
- 10:57Speaker 2: it's like, I know these things are fucking bad news.
- 10:59Speaker 3: I haven't seen them yet. I just know it's gonna
- 11:00Speaker 3: be awful.
- 11:02Speaker 2: So the mom is walking around the house trying to
- 11:05Speaker 2: see what's going on, and I just love this reveal
- 11:08Speaker 2: of like it's not like the gremlin attacks or whatever.
- 11:10Speaker 2: She goes in the kitchen and one of the grandmins
- 11:12Speaker 2: is just eating frosting out of the bin and it's
- 11:14Speaker 2: just a full faith shot of him sitting there and
- 11:18Speaker 2: he got you get the gremlin theme that it comes in.
- 11:20Speaker 3: It's so well done.
- 11:21Speaker 2: And he's just sitting there and he hears the mom
- 11:22Speaker 2: making noise and you're just like, oh shit, this is
- 11:25Speaker 2: fucking bad news. Go ahead.
- 11:29Speaker 1: Well, I was just gonna say, like, so, what's so
- 11:31Speaker 1: great about this is the mom kills a gremlin in
- 11:36Speaker 1: a blender and the gremlin explodes in blood and like
- 11:41Speaker 1: sinew and matter, but the blood is green. And that's
- 11:45Speaker 1: why this movie is PG, which I think is hilarious
- 11:48Speaker 1: because if you look at YouTube now, there are these
- 11:53Speaker 1: ballistic models, like you can buy ballistic gel and you
- 11:56Speaker 1: can buy a ballistic replica of a human and you
- 12:00Speaker 1: can do whatever you want to it. You can smash
- 12:02Speaker 1: it with a sledgehammer, you could shoot it with a gun,
- 12:05Speaker 1: and it's supposed to replicate how a human body would
- 12:08Speaker 1: react and it's ballistic gel and these like plastic skeletons
- 12:12Speaker 1: within the ballistic gel, and they're filled, they're filled with blood.
- 12:15Speaker 1: And on YouTube, YouTube will censor your video of a
- 12:19Speaker 1: ballistic skeleton if the blood is red. But you can
- 12:22Speaker 1: have the exact same thing and the blood is green
- 12:24Speaker 1: and YouTube will not censor it.
- 12:27Speaker 3: I mean that was the thing that the ratings board too, Like.
- 12:32Speaker 1: More Combat a Supernintendo I think, had green blood and
- 12:34Speaker 1: you could edit it like you can put a coat
- 12:36Speaker 1: in and make it red.
- 12:38Speaker 2: Yeah, there was a lot of like a lot of
- 12:40Speaker 2: movies would turn their blood purple or their blood is
- 12:42Speaker 2: so red it looks like paint, just so it would
- 12:44Speaker 2: look faker and would get past ratings board.
- 12:46Speaker 3: Things like that.
- 12:48Speaker 1: So the mother Brent blends a gremlin, grabs a gremlin
- 12:52Speaker 1: and just flat out fucking stabs it to death of
- 12:55Speaker 1: the gun.
- 12:55Speaker 2: That one's crazy. That one's crazy, ye.
- 12:58Speaker 1: And then microwaves one tilnux elodes. That's also disgusting.
- 13:03Speaker 2: I remember I just go gross. I was just like,
- 13:05Speaker 2: it's just it's perfect. And then it's quiet again. The
- 13:11Speaker 2: mom sees something moving. She goes into the living room,
- 13:15Speaker 2: backs into the Christmas tree, sorry, see something moving in
- 13:18Speaker 2: the stalking It ends up being a toy. Another thing,
- 13:22Speaker 2: so I thought was interesting. The Gremlins kryptonite. They love toys.
- 13:25Speaker 2: Toys really seem to occupy them. If they have toys
- 13:28Speaker 2: in the area, they love them.
- 13:29Speaker 1: They's a combination between children and like twenty one year olds.
- 13:34Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's fair college bros and toddlers.
- 13:38Speaker 1: Yeah, they're almost like, yeah, a frat party and a
- 13:41Speaker 1: toddler compared Yeah, yeah, daycare frat party sounds like hell.
- 13:49Speaker 3: The Gremlins.
- 13:50Speaker 2: One of the Groomen's hiding the Christmas and their Christmas
- 13:51Speaker 2: tree that's attacks her in the tree.
- 13:53Speaker 1: Because it doesn't make sense, but it doesn't matter. Like
- 13:57Speaker 1: in the scene the Gremlin's eyes glow and you think
- 14:00Speaker 1: it's Christmas lights in the tree, it's actually the gremlin.
- 14:04Speaker 1: And then Billy comes in and let's just remember ladies
- 14:08Speaker 1: and gentlemen. Billy comes in grabs the sword off the
- 14:11Speaker 1: wall because there's a gag and they have like this
- 14:13Speaker 1: fake sword. The gremlin is attacking his mom. Billy chops
- 14:18Speaker 1: its head off. Its head flies into the fireplace and
- 14:23Speaker 1: we watch the severed head burn. And I want to
- 14:28Speaker 1: remind everyone this movie is rated p G.
- 14:31Speaker 2: I love when the head burns. They just play the
- 14:34Speaker 2: Gremlins theme again, and not to be like triumphant or
- 14:40Speaker 2: like scary. It was just like, oh, it will not
- 14:45Speaker 2: be this easy, like it is going like this is
- 14:47Speaker 2: going to be so much worse.
- 14:49Speaker 1: Yeah, And then they look over and they see Stripe,
- 14:53Speaker 1: who was the leader of the bad Gremlins, with the
- 14:56Speaker 1: excuse me, with the white mohawk. Billy goes, oh, it's right, Stripe,
- 15:01Speaker 1: that evil bastard blows his nose on their curtain, then
- 15:05Speaker 1: jumps through the glass on the window and runs away
- 15:09Speaker 1: into the night, and you can hear him going, oh.
- 15:13Speaker 3: Yeah, they all have these shit eating laughs. They're just
- 15:15Speaker 3: like these again. They just these little shits. It's just
- 15:18Speaker 3: absolutely perfect.
- 15:19Speaker 1: Absolute little shits.
- 15:21Speaker 2: So Billy brings his mom to the doctor's house. They're
- 15:24Speaker 2: going or taken care of. He finds GIZM on the
- 15:27Speaker 2: laundry shoot and goes out to find Stripe.
- 15:30Speaker 3: Yeah, the question I had.
- 15:33Speaker 2: Stripe walking through snow. Would the snow not mutate him?
- 15:40Speaker 1: Oh? Yeah, because it well, it's it's probably frozen. I
- 15:43Speaker 1: don't know what their body temperature is. Maybe it needs
- 15:45Speaker 1: to be liquid water. I don't know. Maybe his body
- 15:47Speaker 1: temperature can melt snow because you never see their breath
- 15:50Speaker 1: or anything.
- 15:51Speaker 3: That's very true.
- 15:52Speaker 1: That's very green blood. I don't know what temperature green
- 15:55Speaker 1: blood is.
- 15:57Speaker 3: Well, actually we get a lot of their anatomy later,
- 16:00Speaker 3: a lot. Yes.
- 16:06Speaker 2: So Billy follows the footsteps of Stripe to the y
- 16:08Speaker 2: m c A and Kingston.
- 16:10Speaker 3: Falls and Stripe is in there.
- 16:16Speaker 2: He jumps out, scratches Billy and jumps into the pool.
- 16:20Speaker 1: And that's such a great moment. You're like, oh fuck,
- 16:24Speaker 1: he jumped into the pool. Givesme had a glass of
- 16:29Speaker 1: water spilled on like his hip, and he shot out
- 16:32Speaker 1: five gremlins. Stripe just jumped into a pool.
- 16:36Speaker 2: And he's bad, Like he's already mutated. So how bad
- 16:39Speaker 2: is this going to be?
- 16:40Speaker 3: So? How bad is it?
- 16:41Speaker 2: The entire the entire pool turns green, It lights up,
- 16:44Speaker 2: which is perfect, starts smoking, starts smoking. Billy runs out
- 16:50Speaker 2: to escape, and all you hear is thousands of gremlins
- 16:54Speaker 2: just laughing. They're all born ridy to rock. I think
- 16:57Speaker 2: it's absolutelyhsterical. Billy goes to the police station. The police
- 17:02Speaker 2: are having a few drinks on duty too. It's Christmas
- 17:06Speaker 2: it's Christmas and he's describing what's happening.
- 17:09Speaker 3: They don't believe Billy.
- 17:11Speaker 2: One of the cops is Jonathan Banks Banks.
- 17:16Speaker 1: He's better call Sault Breaking bad Beverly Hills Cop.
- 17:21Speaker 3: He's a community yeah the same year. Yeah?
- 17:25Speaker 1: Is he is there a more protected role in life
- 17:28Speaker 1: than small town cop? Like you can drink on duty
- 17:31Speaker 1: on Christmas if you're a small Yeah.
- 17:33Speaker 3: I mean no one's gonna mess with him.
- 17:35Speaker 1: You could commit murder as a small town cop like
- 17:38Speaker 1: frequently and people don't have a problem.
- 17:41Speaker 2: So another thing, this movie is a great since of humor.
- 17:44Speaker 2: And again Tim and I have been saying the whole time,
- 17:47Speaker 2: like what's wonderful about this movie is they can get
- 17:50Speaker 2: away with a lot of the carnage because the movie
- 17:52Speaker 2: starts to catch up with the sense of humor that
- 17:54Speaker 2: they're going with, Like the ridiculous is the situation they
- 17:57Speaker 2: play into completely. So he's like, the cop is like,
- 18:02Speaker 2: there's no what are you talking about? He goes, no,
- 18:05Speaker 2: there's no little green monsters running around.
- 18:08Speaker 3: They cut to a wide shot of.
- 18:10Speaker 2: Main Street in Kingston Falls and they just shows stripe
- 18:12Speaker 2: walk out and there's just hundreds of gremlins following him
- 18:15Speaker 2: and they're just laughing like it looks amazing.
- 18:18Speaker 3: Yeah, it looks incredible, and.
- 18:20Speaker 1: Then cuts to mister Futterman and the TV is not working.
- 18:23Speaker 1: He says, goddamn foreign TV. It's immediately a foreign TV
- 18:27Speaker 1: and that's why it's not working. Hence why I think
- 18:30Speaker 1: that mister Futterman was Maga before Maga existed.
- 18:36Speaker 2: So he says that, which is hilarious, Which are the gremlins.
- 18:39Speaker 2: There's like nineteen of them on his antenna, just spending
- 18:42Speaker 2: this thing around destroying it. I think it's like, why,
- 18:44Speaker 2: like do they know they're messing with this guy? It's
- 18:46Speaker 2: so perfect. So he goes checked the antenna and the
- 18:54Speaker 2: attendant is just mangled. He has no idea why. He
- 18:57Speaker 2: hears his plow or whatever it is turned on and
- 19:00Speaker 2: the gremlins drive the plow out of his drive, out
- 19:04Speaker 2: of his garage into his house, and the and mister
- 19:08Speaker 2: Funnerment are screaming, there's a gremlin in my cab, and
- 19:12Speaker 2: the gremlins just plow into the Futterman's and we just
- 19:17Speaker 2: go to a montage of just gremlin carnage of what
- 19:20Speaker 2: they're doing.
- 19:21Speaker 1: This is I understand. They kill the science teacher. But
- 19:24Speaker 1: when they get the plow and they plow through the
- 19:27Speaker 1: Futterman's house and they crush not only mister Futterman but
- 19:31Speaker 1: innocent Missus Futterman kill both of them. I was like,
- 19:35Speaker 1: all right, we went from let's say we went from
- 19:38Speaker 1: like Tommy Dreamer to like maybe like Harry Saturn. I
- 19:44Speaker 1: don't know what would be. We're not at like Sabu
- 19:46Speaker 1: level yet, but yeah, we're we're like escalating and escalating.
- 19:51Speaker 1: I can't think of a good example there.
- 19:54Speaker 2: This is maybe who gets a little bit more extreme,
- 19:57Speaker 2: maybe Sandman, maybe Terry Funk a little bit here. They
- 20:02Speaker 2: also this is when they fully just go cartoon level
- 20:05Speaker 2: with the Gremlins theme.
- 20:07Speaker 1: Oh well, well this this next scene at the bar,
- 20:11Speaker 1: this is when we escalated to Sandman level.
- 20:14Speaker 3: Oh oh, that's a great it's a great callow, it's
- 20:16Speaker 3: a great callart.
- 20:18Speaker 2: So they have a montage of the priest is trying
- 20:22Speaker 2: to put some mail in the mailbox, and one of
- 20:24Speaker 2: the gremlins in there and just like eats one of
- 20:26Speaker 2: the guy's arms while he's in the mailbox.
- 20:29Speaker 3: There's one of the gremlins is messing with traffic lights. Again.
- 20:31Speaker 3: They've they are glorious.
- 20:33Speaker 2: At their wiring knowledge and ability, so instantly they're messing
- 20:37Speaker 2: with the traffic lights, causes a massive car accident that
- 20:39Speaker 2: you don't see, just hear the noise. Again. It's also
- 20:42Speaker 2: starting a trend to is every time the Gremlins do something,
- 20:45Speaker 2: they always cut to all of them laughing, like when
- 20:47Speaker 2: they crush the fire men's They're always laughing hysterically.
- 20:51Speaker 3: It's always that.
- 20:52Speaker 1: And well, sorry, go ahead, don't say.
- 20:56Speaker 2: At the next thing, it's at the police station. The
- 20:58Speaker 2: police are just again, they're looking at Gizmo. They're like
- 21:01Speaker 2: so adored and like blown away by Gizmo again, kind
- 21:04Speaker 2: of showing the kind of the idea of like this
- 21:05Speaker 2: is the trap of these things, and he's like this.
- 21:08Speaker 3: Guy is so cute. It's so whatever.
- 21:10Speaker 2: And then the police get a call about a freak
- 21:13Speaker 2: accident at the Futterman's and Billy's like, it's them, it's them,
- 21:17Speaker 2: it's them.
- 21:17Speaker 3: It's like it's definitely not them.
- 21:21Speaker 2: Striping the gang or on the loose, and they find
- 21:24Speaker 2: Missus Deagle's house so they can also read.
- 21:26Speaker 1: I have to yeah, I have to talk about this
- 21:28Speaker 1: specifically because this is one of my this is maybe
- 21:30Speaker 1: my favorite part of the movie other than the bar probably,
- 21:34Speaker 1: but there's a like throughout the movie there's been Christmas
- 21:38Speaker 1: Carollers and there's a ring at Missus Deagle's door, and
- 21:42Speaker 1: her reaction she thinks it's Carollers. She gets a picture
- 21:46Speaker 1: of water, swings open the door and says, I warned
- 21:50Speaker 1: you rats, and it's about to just throw the water
- 21:52Speaker 1: on them. That's how she reacts to Christmas Carollers. But
- 21:55Speaker 1: this brilliant gag is it is Christmas Caroler. Then you
- 22:00Speaker 1: hear their song.
- 22:01Speaker 3: Is like, I love this.
- 22:06Speaker 2: They are singing the score of the movie.
- 22:10Speaker 3: I think it's amazing. They know they're on soundtrack. It's great.
- 22:13Speaker 1: They show that the group of Christmas Carollers are all there.
- 22:17Speaker 1: The gremlins are very into costume changes, which Ryan really respects.
- 22:21Speaker 1: They're all dressed as Christmas Carollers in winter garb with
- 22:25Speaker 1: like hymnals to read from. But it's all gremlins that came.
- 22:29Speaker 2: They've just caught up on American culture within a matter
- 22:32Speaker 2: of twenty four hours.
- 22:33Speaker 1: Is incredible, says Missus Eagle. Says, they've come for me.
- 22:39Speaker 1: I'm not ready, That's what she says.
- 22:42Speaker 3: So what what do you did she think she's going
- 22:44Speaker 3: to hell? And this is how it was gonna come?
- 22:45Speaker 2: Like what did that mean?
- 22:46Speaker 1: These are like musbibles or or ghouls or something.
- 22:50Speaker 2: And I wonder how intentional this was. I'm curious to
- 22:53Speaker 2: know missus Degle is coming out there with a cup
- 22:56Speaker 2: of water to throw at them. Yeah, so my curiosity
- 23:01Speaker 2: is is the joke that she's so dumb doesn't realize
- 23:04Speaker 2: what she's doing is a hundred times more dangerous because
- 23:07Speaker 2: they'll replicate.
- 23:08Speaker 1: Because they make a joke about this on the radio
- 23:11Speaker 1: later if you know what I'm talking.
- 23:13Speaker 3: Yes, exactly.
- 23:15Speaker 2: So while she's watching them, we see that one of
- 23:19Speaker 2: the gremlins is hot Missus Deegle has one of those
- 23:23Speaker 2: lift chairs that brings up the stairs and one of
- 23:25Speaker 2: the gremlins is hot wire chair.
- 23:27Speaker 3: Again, these guys are electrical geniuses.
- 23:31Speaker 2: So she gets in her chair, Like Tim said, she's fit, panicking,
- 23:34Speaker 2: freaking out. The chair is going one thousand miles per
- 23:38Speaker 2: hour and she gets rocketed straight out the window.
- 23:41Speaker 3: I also forgotten this movie.
- 23:43Speaker 2: They show that she just lands, like they don't show her,
- 23:45Speaker 2: but they do show her for like from her legs,
- 23:47Speaker 2: but like she just lands and just like dies in
- 23:49Speaker 2: the middle of the street and it just cuts to
- 23:51Speaker 2: the gremlins and they just pause and they all just laugh.
- 23:53Speaker 3: They just think it's hysterical.
- 23:55Speaker 1: This really escalated another level for me. She gets rocketed,
- 23:58Speaker 1: shatters and shot like a third story window from her
- 24:03Speaker 1: handicap like chair and they all laugh. The cops see it,
- 24:08Speaker 1: and then there's the shot where the cops go, that
- 24:11Speaker 1: was missus deegle And then they look to their left
- 24:13Speaker 1: and there's a guy playing Santa Claus who runs out
- 24:16Speaker 1: to the streets screaming because he's swarmed in gremlins. He's
- 24:19Speaker 1: covered awful and they're like tearing his body apart and
- 24:23Speaker 1: he's just dressfully as stand to going.
- 24:25Speaker 3: Like the police take off yep.
- 24:31Speaker 2: So then we see Pete in his room window and
- 24:34Speaker 2: Pete is trying to fight off the gremlins with his
- 24:37Speaker 2: sling shot. The police try to that's a good, very
- 24:41Speaker 2: good job. The police try to pull up, there's no brakes.
- 24:44Speaker 2: The police flip the car. Yeah, and they are done.
- 24:50Speaker 1: There's a radio station being hosted by Rock and Ricky,
- 24:54Speaker 1: who's gonna come up later, and Rock and Ricky's like, hey,
- 24:57Speaker 1: rocking Ricky. On Christmas Eve, taking your call ins. And
- 25:00Speaker 1: somebody calls and is like Ricky and the attack, and
- 25:04Speaker 1: he says, this is Christmas, not Halloween. And I wrote
- 25:08Speaker 1: a note that is what we're all thinking, rock and Ricky,
- 25:11Speaker 1: this is Christmas, Halloween? What are we doing?
- 25:15Speaker 3: I just that's so so great, that's so funny. Again.
- 25:18Speaker 3: I think that's when like they start really like.
- 25:22Speaker 2: They're truly signalant to you, like this is meant to
- 25:24Speaker 2: be like way more humorous now than it is horror,
- 25:28Speaker 2: even though.
- 25:28Speaker 3: The horror very much counts, if you will.
- 25:31Speaker 2: So we cut back to the dad who's on his
- 25:33Speaker 2: way home from the gas and he's in a gas
- 25:35Speaker 2: station talking to a guy who has maybe a pile
- 25:39Speaker 2: of cigarettes that's a foot high, and he goes, I
- 25:42Speaker 2: noticed you're a smoker, yes, And I was like, what
- 25:44Speaker 2: gave it away? And he tries to sell this guy
- 25:46Speaker 2: this smokeless ashtray. While the while this is happening, are
- 25:51Speaker 2: they cut to uh Dory's bars tavern.
- 25:57Speaker 1: I'm sorry, wait, let me let me take over for
- 25:59Speaker 1: a second, because please is so amazing. So it goes
- 26:02Speaker 1: to Dori's tavern where Phoebe Kates works, whose name is
- 26:05Speaker 1: Kate and it's completely occupied by gremlins. Well, they are partying.
- 26:12Speaker 1: They are getting absolutely wasted, drunk, chugging beer and liquor.
- 26:17Speaker 1: There's all smoking cigarettes. They're all wasted. They're also eating
- 26:22Speaker 1: tons of junk food. And it shows that Phoebe Kate's
- 26:25Speaker 1: is serving all of them, and it's like they're totally
- 26:28Speaker 1: fine with her there. They're not gonna kill her because
- 26:32Speaker 1: she's serving all of them, and they're like cool with that.
- 26:35Speaker 1: I loved that mutual unspoken understanding.
- 26:40Speaker 2: I think also it was a thing to where like
- 26:41Speaker 2: where she's backed into a klorner being behind the bar,
- 26:44Speaker 2: she must have picked up on like she's given them stuff.
- 26:47Speaker 3: They won't hurt her. But there's so fucking many of them.
- 26:50Speaker 2: Yea, she can't get out of there, clearly because of
- 26:52Speaker 2: also there later to be seen erratic behavior, but thematic
- 26:56Speaker 2: erratic behavior.
- 26:57Speaker 1: This is this is off, this is off the rails.
- 27:00Speaker 1: There's so Ryan bought me this. I actually don't have
- 27:03Speaker 1: it with an arms reach, but Ryan bought me. So
- 27:06Speaker 1: she's serving all of them, and then she looks behind
- 27:09Speaker 1: the bar and there's a gremlin and a trench coat
- 27:11Speaker 1: that flashes flashes her. It exposes himself as a flasher
- 27:17Speaker 1: rated PG. Uh. There is a a jazz gremlin. I
- 27:24Speaker 1: would say, there's.
- 27:25Speaker 2: The whole the whole movie quiets down for that part,
- 27:29Speaker 2: and I was like, what is this a reference to?
- 27:31Speaker 2: And then the other gremlin comes over the puppets, What
- 27:35Speaker 2: is what is this? And it's like a bee and
- 27:38Speaker 2: it's just like what is it supposed to be? I
- 27:39Speaker 2: have no idea. I think it's deranged.
- 27:42Speaker 1: The stripe has a stripe at this point is holding
- 27:45Speaker 1: a gun and shoots someone.
- 27:48Speaker 2: Yes, because he looked at his girlfriends a woman.
- 27:52Speaker 1: Yeah, this is a trans gremlin because they're all clearly
- 27:55Speaker 1: like male. They all act male. They have no I
- 27:58Speaker 1: mean the flasher flashes feet, Kate's who's female. They don't
- 28:02Speaker 1: really like have sex because they get wet and shoot
- 28:05Speaker 1: balls out of their backs. But there's a gremlin that
- 28:10Speaker 1: is choosing to wear women's clothing and lipstick and is
- 28:14Speaker 1: like the girlfriend. So it's sort of like in a
- 28:17Speaker 1: prison situation where like you're the girl in the prison
- 28:21Speaker 1: and that's why it's straight shoot someone. I mean, this
- 28:25Speaker 1: is even explaining this out loud is insane. There's a
- 28:27Speaker 1: flash dance gremlin.
- 28:29Speaker 2: Yes, there is one gremlin is just drowning himself. He's
- 28:34Speaker 2: lying on the bottom of the tap and he is
- 28:36Speaker 2: just drinking straight from the tap. One of them somehow
- 28:39Speaker 2: turns himself into a siren, like he puts his finger
- 28:43Speaker 2: in a electrical socket and he makes this really a
- 28:45Speaker 2: lot of sound.
- 28:48Speaker 1: I my favorite one is because they're already like causing
- 28:53Speaker 1: chaos and committing crime, so why dress up for this.
- 28:56Speaker 1: But Kate is trying to leave and there's a mugger
- 28:59Speaker 1: gremlin that he is smug her. He's wearing a ski
- 29:02Speaker 1: mask and he has a gun, and it's like.
- 29:04Speaker 3: What I wrote, I might notice.
- 29:06Speaker 2: Ski mask one is fucking terrifying because she's just like
- 29:10Speaker 2: the way they do it is she just turns the
- 29:12Speaker 2: corner he's there and he's like ah, He's like, what
- 29:14Speaker 2: the fuck is this. There's also one Kate is lighting
- 29:18Speaker 2: their cigarettes at the bar too before she leaves, and
- 29:22Speaker 2: one of them is so messed, is so fucked up.
- 29:24Speaker 2: He decides to go on the ceiling fan and she
- 29:28Speaker 2: turns it on to use it as a distraction to escape.
- 29:32Speaker 2: So he's spinning on the ceiling fan and gets thrown
- 29:34Speaker 2: into the window.
- 29:37Speaker 3: Scheme.
- 29:37Speaker 2: The mugger one flat out shoots a Kate like twice,
- 29:40Speaker 2: just doesn't care, just like shoots at her like he's
- 29:42Speaker 2: going to kill her. Ye, Billy drives his car into
- 29:45Speaker 2: the bar well.
- 29:46Speaker 1: She's also using a polaroid to flash the light them
- 29:52Speaker 1: to back them off.
- 29:54Speaker 2: Yeah, so the light thing still affects the mutated once.
- 30:00Speaker 2: So Kate gets in the car, the car can't start.
- 30:03Speaker 2: They have to go hide in the bank. The bank
- 30:05Speaker 2: has been destroyed by the gremlins.
- 30:07Speaker 1: It went great line. I just want to mention real quick,
- 30:10Speaker 1: She says, what are these things and where did they
- 30:13Speaker 1: come from. Billy's response was the gremlins.
- 30:15Speaker 2: Kate, since remember that happened in Massachusetts FW years ago.
- 30:22Speaker 2: It's like, so then in the bank, they kind of
- 30:30Speaker 2: give you a reprieve from the craziness. Billy and Kate
- 30:34Speaker 2: are talking and Billy's like, this is just like absolutely crazy.
- 30:38Speaker 2: And as Tim mentioned earlier, it's not the craziest Christmas
- 30:43Speaker 2: that Kate's ever had.
- 30:44Speaker 1: Oh hi, Brian, I'm gonna let you. Kate explains why
- 30:49Speaker 1: she hates Christmas, and Ryan will take it from here.
- 30:54Speaker 2: The worst thing that ever happened to he was on Christmas.
- 30:57Speaker 2: Oh god, it was so horrible. It was Christmas Eve.
- 31:00Speaker 2: I was nine years old. Me and Mom were decorating
- 31:03Speaker 2: the tree, waiting for Dad to come home from work.
- 31:06Speaker 2: A couple hours went by, Dad wasn't home, so Mom
- 31:09Speaker 2: called the office, no answer. Christmas Day came and went
- 31:14Speaker 2: and stole nothing, so the police began to search. Four
- 31:18Speaker 2: or five days went by, neither one of us came
- 31:20Speaker 2: or sleep. Everything was falling apart. It was snowing outside.
- 31:25Speaker 2: The house was freezing, so I want to try to
- 31:28Speaker 2: light a fire. That's why I noticed the smell. The
- 31:32Speaker 2: fireman came and broke through the chimney top and me
- 31:34Speaker 2: and my mom were expecting them to pull out a
- 31:36Speaker 2: dead cat or a bird, and instead they pulled up
- 31:40Speaker 2: my father. He was dressed in a Santa Claus suit.
- 31:44Speaker 2: He had been climbing down the chimney on Christmas Eve,
- 31:47Speaker 2: his arms loaded with presents. He was going to surprise us.
- 31:51Speaker 2: He slipped and broke his neck. He died instantly, And
- 31:55Speaker 2: that's how I found out there was no Santa Claus.
- 32:00Speaker 1: And that's how you found out there was no Santa Claus.
- 32:04Speaker 1: That is this is the fucking darkest, most twisted thing
- 32:08Speaker 1: that has ever been in a Christmas movie and no shit,
- 32:12Speaker 1: she doesn't like Christmas. But also so many like first
- 32:18Speaker 1: of all, the dad moron trying to do this moron.
- 32:23Speaker 1: If Kate turned out to be anything less than Ted Bundy,
- 32:28Speaker 1: it would be a fucking miracle.
- 32:31Speaker 2: Also, just like how they tell this, like that's when
- 32:35Speaker 2: we smelled it.
- 32:36Speaker 1: It was just like called my father's rotten corpse when
- 32:40Speaker 1: he dressed his Sanda surprises on Christmas? What the fuck
- 32:44Speaker 1: is wrong with the eighties?
- 32:45Speaker 2: They should have cut to like stripe in the window
- 32:47Speaker 2: being like uh, like even he grows up like this,
- 32:50Speaker 2: it's like mortified by the situation.
- 32:52Speaker 1: And I get like, oh, kids, these days are soft,
- 32:55Speaker 1: and kids movies should also be enjoyable for adults, Like
- 32:59Speaker 1: I'm all for that, And there's a lot of nineties
- 33:01Speaker 1: movies that I, you know, I would support, But the eighties,
- 33:05Speaker 1: which everybody has such a boner for, is like like
- 33:08Speaker 1: Stranger Things is all just let's jerk off to the eighties,
- 33:11Speaker 1: and I don't I don't get that, Like what the
- 33:15Speaker 1: fuck was wrong with the eighties?
- 33:18Speaker 2: It makes you wonder, Like it's kind of like when
- 33:19Speaker 2: you hear about a lot of the other eighties movies
- 33:21Speaker 2: that had been like made into much more either comedic
- 33:24Speaker 2: or family friendly movies, Like, was this originally written to
- 33:28Speaker 2: be a straight up horror movie because it would make
- 33:29Speaker 2: more sense. It's kind of like like Beetlejuice was written
- 33:32Speaker 2: to be much more of a horror movie than what
- 33:34Speaker 2: it was, and it's like it makes sense, like you
- 33:37Speaker 2: have to comedically change it.
- 33:38Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just so. Yeah, it's incredibly dark.
- 33:44Speaker 2: So they sharp cut to Dad leaving the gas station
- 33:47Speaker 2: with the mobile attendant hacking a lung up because of
- 33:51Speaker 2: the smokeless ASTERI, Billy and Kate head out into the street.
- 33:58Speaker 2: I really loved this idea. The score for the movie
- 34:02Speaker 2: uses a lot of silent night and Billy's like, She's like,
- 34:09Speaker 2: where are they? They couldn't have all like whatever, And
- 34:11Speaker 2: Billy's like, they probably went somewhere together dark because they
- 34:14Speaker 2: just want to avoid lights. Yeah, so they go to
- 34:18Speaker 2: the movie theater. They look inside, they see.
- 34:22Speaker 1: Well, I just want to say, I like how they're
- 34:23Speaker 1: walking around the town. There's no gremlins. This is odd.
- 34:27Speaker 1: And then he says they're in the theater and she
- 34:29Speaker 1: says all of them. And when she says that they
- 34:32Speaker 1: caught to the inside of the theater and it is pandemonium.
- 34:36Speaker 3: Is absolute chaos.
- 34:40Speaker 1: So what are they doing? And Billy says, they're watching
- 34:43Speaker 1: snow White and they love it.
- 34:46Speaker 2: Also again just shows their genius. They learn how to
- 34:50Speaker 2: use the projector and make it work. It's twenty eight
- 34:53Speaker 2: of them, yes, but they figure it out. So they're
- 34:57Speaker 2: watching snow White, are singing along to High ho While
- 35:03Speaker 2: this is happening, Billy tries to find the boiler room
- 35:06Speaker 2: because he's gonna use his an opportunity to blow up
- 35:09Speaker 2: the gremlins, Stripe Lee's because he's out of popcorn.
- 35:15Speaker 1: When he gets up to Lee is the guy the
- 35:17Speaker 1: gremlin that's next to him turns him and goes, milk duds,
- 35:23Speaker 1: what are we doing?
- 35:28Speaker 2: He sees that that they're out of popcorn. He's pissed,
- 35:31Speaker 2: but looks across the looks across the street and she's
- 35:33Speaker 2: a sign for candy. Again proven they can read, I
- 35:38Speaker 2: will go across the street. Billy finds the boiler room,
- 35:43Speaker 2: He undoes the guests switch whatever it is and blows
- 35:49Speaker 2: up the theater.
- 35:51Speaker 3: It explodes, levels.
- 35:54Speaker 2: The building, killing all the gremlins except for Stripe, and
- 35:59Speaker 2: I'm not gonna lie.
- 36:00Speaker 3: I kind of felt bad Messica did this.
- 36:05Speaker 1: This is uh where we escalate to Sabu level, because
- 36:09Speaker 1: what are they doing. They don't they don't they don't
- 36:12Speaker 1: just blow up the theater. They don't just blow up
- 36:14Speaker 1: the theater. And you see it blow up. They blow
- 36:16Speaker 1: up the entire theory. You see it, You see it explode,
- 36:19Speaker 1: and you're like, oh, this is done right all that
- 36:20Speaker 1: they're all dead, I assume no Dante has to show us.
- 36:24Speaker 1: So they cut into the theater, all the gremlins on fire, screaming,
- 36:29Speaker 1: and one of one of them is on fire, screaming
- 36:32Speaker 1: holding a butcher knife, and I thought, why why are
- 36:34Speaker 1: we doing this? And uh, Stripe is watching this from
- 36:42Speaker 1: the candy store and he sees Billy and Kate and Gizmo,
- 36:47Speaker 1: and Stripe angrily says out loud, Gizmo, that was his name,
- 36:54Speaker 1: And then Billy points to him and goes, hey, Kate,
- 36:57Speaker 1: that's Stripe. He's the leader. And again Kate's like, what
- 36:59Speaker 1: there's a fucking leader of these things?
- 37:01Speaker 2: What She's like it has to make sense, though, they're
- 37:04Speaker 2: so organized and they've learned so much so quickly. Yeah,
- 37:08Speaker 2: So Stripe is just riding around the store on a scooter.
- 37:13Speaker 1: Well, and also I wanted to mention at this point
- 37:18Speaker 1: or did it not happen yet that Kate and Billy.
- 37:21Speaker 3: Finally, Oh they kiss here they kiss on the lips.
- 37:27Speaker 3: What a what an odd time?
- 37:29Speaker 2: I guess maybe he thinks he's gonna die.
- 37:31Speaker 1: Or yeah, there's no there's no odd time to kiss
- 37:35Speaker 1: Phoebe Kate's.
- 37:36Speaker 3: That's a great that's a great call up.
- 37:41Speaker 2: So Billy is kind of quietly walking around the store
- 37:44Speaker 2: trying to find Stripe. He gets to the electronics department
- 37:48Speaker 2: and Stripe has learned to record himself on a camera
- 37:51Speaker 2: and he's broadcasting it to all the TVs.
- 37:54Speaker 3: This Amy laughs so hard. I thought, this is just
- 37:56Speaker 3: so funny.
- 37:57Speaker 1: He's the joker. Oh basically yeah, and.
- 37:59Speaker 2: I'll here is just Billy across the speakers on all
- 38:03Speaker 2: the TVs. That think is fucking great. It's so perfect.
- 38:07Speaker 2: Billy starts smashing the TVs. Billy is a bat smashing
- 38:10Speaker 2: the TVs. This is the very kind of classic shot
- 38:14Speaker 2: of the movie too. Billy walks down the toy aisle.
- 38:17Speaker 2: You see a toy of et and bugs Bunny, and
- 38:20Speaker 2: then Stripe pushes them both out of the way and
- 38:23Speaker 2: leans out. That suppose he was a very kind of
- 38:25Speaker 2: like dig on Steven Spielberg, who kind of does something
- 38:30Speaker 2: similar with who frame Roger Rabbit. So Kate is in
- 38:37Speaker 2: the control room trying to turn the lights on in
- 38:40Speaker 2: the building, and she turns the lights on and also
- 38:43Speaker 2: turns this display sort of like Garden Fountain on as well, I.
- 38:49Speaker 1: Laughed out loud. Where like Billy is walking like through
- 38:52Speaker 1: an aisle, he has his back to Stripe, and Stripe
- 38:55Speaker 1: just nails him in the spine with a baseball as
- 38:58Speaker 1: far as he can. Oh laughed out loud, throwing the
- 39:01Speaker 1: saw blades.
- 39:02Speaker 2: Because there is frisbee them at his head.
- 39:04Speaker 1: Yeah, frisbee because they're in a department store. He's in
- 39:07Speaker 1: the hardware section. He's frisbeeing like table saw blades at
- 39:11Speaker 1: Billy's head. Very dangerous, could easily kill Billy.
- 39:16Speaker 3: The Stripe then goes for a bike ride. Billy continues
- 39:21Speaker 3: to find him. Uh.
- 39:22Speaker 2: Kate notices that Gizmo, who is in the backpack, is gone.
- 39:27Speaker 2: Stripe continues to torture Billy. Gizmo notices that there is
- 39:33Speaker 2: a window blind near where Stripe is and Billy. Stripe
- 39:40Speaker 2: then finds the gremlin size crossbow in the store, which
- 39:44Speaker 2: is great. They have crossbows for toddlers, Yep, and start
- 39:48Speaker 2: and shoots Billy with the crossbow in the arm in
- 39:52Speaker 2: the arm, and then Stripe upgrades to a chainsaw and
- 39:57Speaker 2: goes after him with the chainsaw. Gizmo finds a Barbie.
- 40:03Speaker 1: Car Yep, drive by watching movies.
- 40:08Speaker 2: And the car also has a fully functional engine for
- 40:10Speaker 2: a Barbie car.
- 40:11Speaker 3: Yeah, and.
- 40:14Speaker 2: Drives the Barbie car into the two of them, crashes
- 40:18Speaker 2: into the wall. I'm sorry, crashes into the window area.
- 40:22Speaker 3: Gets up. They turn the lights on.
- 40:28Speaker 2: Stripe is going up believe with the chainsaw. Stripe drops
- 40:32Speaker 2: the chainsaw. The chainsaw sort of rides Stripe across the room.
- 40:36Speaker 2: He then sees the gun and then sees the fountain
- 40:39Speaker 2: with the water and thinks, fun.
- 40:42Speaker 1: This is my own because they're basically like a home
- 40:45Speaker 1: depot departments where kind of So he runs over to
- 40:48Speaker 1: the plant section because there's a water fountain that's on
- 40:50Speaker 1: display that is running water. But I wrote a note here.
- 40:54Speaker 1: So Billy is bleeding from the face, He's got shot
- 40:57Speaker 1: with an arrow in the arm. He being murdered with
- 41:01Speaker 1: a chainsaw. And this movie is marketed towards children because
- 41:05Speaker 1: it's the eighties.
- 41:07Speaker 2: And also Gizmo says, god, I'm sorry. Stripe says gun
- 41:10Speaker 2: when he sees the gun.
- 41:11Speaker 1: Too, and Rock and Ricky is on the radio and
- 41:15Speaker 1: he says, all right, it's been a rough night for
- 41:18Speaker 1: Rocking Ricky. But uh, but he says, don't worry, folks.
- 41:23Speaker 1: The Marines are here. They're standing by with fire hoses
- 41:27Speaker 1: and we were about to spray all these gremlins and
- 41:29Speaker 1: hoses and you know, as the viewer were like, oh no, this.
- 41:33Speaker 2: Is the worst thing can do. We see Dad arrive
- 41:37Speaker 2: at home at back in Kingston Falls and the town
- 41:40Speaker 2: is just destroyed, just in shambles, and he just kind
- 41:45Speaker 2: of walks out of his car.
- 41:47Speaker 3: We got back to Gizmo driving through the store.
- 41:50Speaker 2: Stripe shoots at Billy and then puts his hand in
- 41:54Speaker 2: the fountain to start making more gremlins. Yes, you start
- 41:58Speaker 2: seeing the gremlin pods grow on its back.
- 42:02Speaker 3: Gizmo, I jumped ahead on this. I'm sorry.
- 42:04Speaker 2: Gizmo pulls up, drives again into the wall right where
- 42:09Speaker 2: the strength of the blinds is pulls the blinds and
- 42:12Speaker 2: the UV light from the sun comes in through the
- 42:16Speaker 2: roof and Stripe starts to disintegrate.
- 42:20Speaker 1: I wrote Stripe, and then after Gizmo releases the blinds
- 42:25Speaker 1: onto Stripe and he gets hit with sunlight. Stripe is
- 42:28Speaker 1: the most graphic on screen death in the history of cinema.
- 42:32Speaker 2: It is disgusting. It is genuinely vomit inducing disgusting. How
- 42:36Speaker 2: gross is death.
- 42:36Speaker 1: Stripes death alone makes this movie enc seventeen.
- 42:42Speaker 2: It's just like and also they just keep cutting back
- 42:45Speaker 2: to it, like it's not enough for you to see that.
- 42:47Speaker 1: Like his his flesh starts to melt away, but his
- 42:52Speaker 1: eyeballs stay intact, but the pupils melt out. So we
- 42:57Speaker 1: use these like blank orbs, and he's screaming and he
- 43:02Speaker 1: looks disgusting, and then the dad walks in. He's been
- 43:07Speaker 1: on vacation. He walks into the store and sees this
- 43:12Speaker 1: that hard turn around, and so Stripe is melted to
- 43:19Speaker 1: death and then falls back into the water fountain. So
- 43:22Speaker 1: you think, and I will I encourage you to watch
- 43:25Speaker 1: this on YouTube or HBO Max where Gremlins is located.
- 43:29Speaker 1: You think, wow, that was fucking disgusting. That could not
- 43:32Speaker 1: have been worse. You are wrong, because it keeps going.
- 43:37Speaker 1: Stripe then jumps out of the fountain. He's still alive,
- 43:41Speaker 1: but now he's a skeleton with like to meet left
- 43:45Speaker 1: on the bones and then he collapses and his skeleton
- 43:49Speaker 1: like jerks and melts. It is fucking disgusting.
- 43:55Speaker 2: When the skeleton came out, I said, oh, it's Frank
- 43:58Speaker 2: from Hellraiser. We were meant to do this year.
- 44:01Speaker 1: It is.
- 44:03Speaker 2: This is perfect, This is it is genuinely amazing. They
- 44:07Speaker 2: chose to like go with this for so long. It
- 44:10Speaker 2: is so gross. It's but it is, I mean gross
- 44:12Speaker 2: as it is, it's an incredible effect.
- 44:14Speaker 3: It works really well.
- 44:16Speaker 1: This is a striped death now pushes us to the
- 44:19Speaker 1: Mike Foley Terry Funk Japanese death match level, like losing
- 44:25Speaker 1: an ear to Vader, but even beyond that when they
- 44:29Speaker 1: do like King of the Death Match in Ohio every
- 44:32Speaker 1: year King of this So there's like one guy, oh
- 44:36Speaker 1: what's his name, he's won multiple times King of the
- 44:40Speaker 1: Death Match. It started in I think nineteen ninety five.
- 44:45Speaker 1: So yeah, we're now at the level of we're gonna say,
- 44:54Speaker 1: who are the winners championships? These are the Mickey Knuckles,
- 45:01Speaker 1: Homeless Jimmy uh, these names like we're we're here like.
- 45:09Speaker 3: Hate him pretty quickly.
- 45:11Speaker 1: Yeah, these these can't even be televised.
- 45:13Speaker 3: Is where we're at exactly.
- 45:15Speaker 2: It's just like chainsaw ropes, I'm sorry, barbed wire ropes
- 45:18Speaker 2: and everything.
- 45:19Speaker 1: Yeah, when we got to fluorescent light bulbs, I was out.
- 45:22Speaker 2: That's that became out of control, or like the old
- 45:26Speaker 2: the thumbtack floor.
- 45:28Speaker 1: Well the thumbtag floor, Like you can't breathe in thumb tacks.
- 45:32Speaker 1: That's the thing that I like this because for anybody
- 45:35Speaker 1: that does know what I'm talking about, we're talking about wrestling,
- 45:37Speaker 1: and if you watch the Wrestler with Mickey Rourke, there's
- 45:40Speaker 1: actually like a deathmatch that he has with Necro Butcher.
- 45:44Speaker 1: That's where we're at. We're at Necro Butcher levels with
- 45:47Speaker 1: stripes and they use like staple guns and all this
- 45:50Speaker 1: disgusting ship. But one thing I do not do in
- 45:54Speaker 1: wrestling is like barbed wire thumb tacks chairs, even C
- 45:59Speaker 1: four explodes, I'm okay, But fluorescent lightbulbs I do not do.
- 46:04Speaker 1: And people will get like body slammed into the fluorescent
- 46:08Speaker 1: light bulbs. But that turns into dust glass particles in
- 46:12Speaker 1: the air that you're actually breathing in, and that doesn't
- 46:14Speaker 1: happen with thumbtacks. So these idiots that are doing this, Like,
- 46:19Speaker 1: I mean, they're probably dead at forty for other reasons drugs.
- 46:23Speaker 1: But anyways, let's move on.
- 46:29Speaker 3: So we cut back to their house.
- 46:32Speaker 2: They're watching the news and the newscasters are explaining how
- 46:35Speaker 2: this was an unexplained experience.
- 46:37Speaker 3: They have no idea why this happens. Yeah, yeah, So.
- 46:42Speaker 2: Gizmo is being taken care of by Kate and Billy's mom,
- 46:47Speaker 2: and then standing in the door. Standing in the living
- 46:50Speaker 2: room is the grandfather from the beginning of the Moon movie,
- 46:54Speaker 2: the original owner of the Magua. Yes, and again this
- 46:58Speaker 2: has to be what they were going for with this
- 47:01Speaker 2: whole movie. All he says is you teach him to
- 47:04Speaker 2: watch television? Like that was their crime, was you taught
- 47:07Speaker 2: him to watch television.
- 47:08Speaker 1: I love that you did with the magua, what your
- 47:11Speaker 1: society has done with all of nature's gifts. Yeah, you're
- 47:15Speaker 1: not ready, but perhaps someday you will be. Until then,
- 47:20Speaker 1: Magua will be waiting.
- 47:22Speaker 2: But love that.
- 47:23Speaker 1: But I love how the older Chinese man says, oh,
- 47:29Speaker 1: Gizmo wants to say something to Billy, and Billy comes
- 47:34Speaker 1: up and says, what's up, Gizmo and says pie.
- 47:38Speaker 3: Billy love it.
- 47:42Speaker 2: I also love because the old man, grandfather, I'm sorry,
- 47:46Speaker 2: speaks directly to the Magwa to Gizmo in a different language,
- 47:51Speaker 2: and Billy says like you understand him, like you can
- 47:55Speaker 2: speak to him, Like how does that work? And he
- 47:56Speaker 2: just says to hear, one only has to listen.
- 48:02Speaker 1: That's how new English.
- 48:04Speaker 2: As an apology. The Dad's like, I'm so sorry. Here's
- 48:07Speaker 2: a smokeless ashtray. And he's like, oh, smokeless ashtray. A
- 48:09Speaker 2: guy tried to give me one of these at the
- 48:11Speaker 2: gas station on the way here.
- 48:14Speaker 3: So uh.
- 48:16Speaker 2: The old man just walks off into the moonlight with Gizmo.
- 48:22Speaker 1: And that's the stand. That's the end of the film.
- 48:25Speaker 3: That's the end of Gremlins. And then Tim, do you
- 48:27Speaker 3: have any Gremlins advice?
- 48:29Speaker 1: Do I have?
- 48:31Speaker 3: I'm sorry, let's do something else. I'm sorry.
- 48:33Speaker 1: No, I was gonna say. The end credits they play, Hey,
- 48:36Speaker 1: Mambo mambo, uh oh number five, Hold the pickles, hold special.
- 48:49Speaker 3: Magua number five.
- 48:51Speaker 1: Oh my life. A little bit of stribe by my side.
- 48:58Speaker 2: At a little bit of ski mask makes me, oh, man,
- 49:06Speaker 2: why would you want that?
- 49:09Speaker 1: So I would say, my Gremlins advice is if you
- 49:13Speaker 1: haven't seen Grandlins, or you haven't seen Gremlins in a
- 49:15Speaker 1: million years. Watch Gremlins. It is fucking batshit crazy. It's
- 49:18Speaker 1: a Christmas it's fun, it's it's the hardcore champion of
- 49:24Speaker 1: the ECW, champion of Christmas movies. I fucking love it.
- 49:28Speaker 1: Great choice by Spielberg back when he wasn't a born
- 49:32Speaker 1: And yeah, Ryan, what's your magwa advice? Sorry, Gremlin's advice.
- 49:37Speaker 2: We should say too, because it's it's so crazy. It
- 49:40Speaker 2: does really have like it is truly a very Christmas
- 49:43Speaker 2: movie feeling, sound, music, everything, it is very Christmas.
- 49:47Speaker 1: No everywhere Christmas decorations. My favorite thing in like movies
- 49:52Speaker 1: period are hometown dive bars decorated for Christmas. I wish
- 49:56Speaker 1: I could just open like an amusement park of just
- 49:59Speaker 1: like one hundred hometown dive bars decorated for Christmas. There's
- 50:02Speaker 1: nothing more. If I could drink in any place, anytime, anywhere,
- 50:07Speaker 1: it'd be a hometown dive bar decorated for Christmas. Amazing.
- 50:12Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it's a great. Uh I don't they just
- 50:16Speaker 2: have a great It's just so real. It's just like that,
- 50:18Speaker 2: it's like you will see that place in a real
- 50:20Speaker 2: and that's Darcy's the reason.
- 50:22Speaker 3: Darcy's the same Darcy's.
- 50:25Speaker 2: The Gremlins actually are there, though as we speak, you.
- 50:29Speaker 1: Can't tell them they're pizza. You can't tell them a
- 50:33Speaker 1: bar from the locals. And if you're like, hey, what's
- 50:36Speaker 1: that little green guy like Darcis throws you out like
- 50:38Speaker 1: that was that was rude.
- 50:41Speaker 3: Rue.
- 50:42Speaker 2: When you say that, they throw one of the large
- 50:44Speaker 2: butt light glasses at your head.
- 50:45Speaker 3: The gremlin dust. It's just like immediately.
- 50:49Speaker 1: Large Roney and JETI dice. But anyways, Ryan, what's your goal?
- 50:56Speaker 2: My gremlin advice is if your conditioner goes on the fritz,
- 51:01Speaker 2: or your little robot blows up, or maybe your four
- 51:06Speaker 2: K region free Blu ray player pauses a little bit,
- 51:10Speaker 2: before you call the geek squad, just turn on all
- 51:13Speaker 2: your lights, check all the cloths and cabinets, look under
- 51:17Speaker 2: all the beds, because you never can tell. There just
- 51:21Speaker 2: might be a Grumlin in your house.
