DANTE ON “GREMLINS 3”

By Film Threat Staff | August 16, 2006

Joe Dante is convinced there’ll be a Gremlins 3, but he’d rather steer clear of it. From the Latino Review:

“Gremlins 3”! Well, I’m sure there will be one. I know I won’t have anything to do with it. They won’t ask me. But the goal with “Gremlins 2” was to make sure there wouldn’t be a “Gremlins 3”. If there is a “Gremlins 3” they’re welcome to it. I think what’s holding it up is that they can’t conceive of what to do because the first movies were defined by the technology, it was what the puppets could do and do well and not do and that’s what the movies became. Now you could do anything with CGI so the field is so open that nobody could focus on what exactly it should be. I can’t say I’m looking forward to seeing it.
