{Rumor Mill} WHOIS behind Gremlins3.com and Gremlins3.co.uk?
The last couple weeks have been somewhat exciting regarding the possibility of Gremlins 3 becoming closer to reality due to some internet rumors.
A new piece of the puzzle has been flooding my inbox thanks to you readers regarding Warner Brothers parking a Gremlins 3 domain.
It seems that the previously unowned domains Gremlins3.com and Gremlins3.co.uk have been registered recently, and here is what we know:

{Rumor Mill} Gremlins 3 in 3-D?
Heyas All!
Thanks for all the emails and Instant Messages you guys and gals sent in regarding the new Gremlins 3-D rumors flying about.
(For those that aren’t aware here is the link:”http://www.collider.com/2010/01/25/ghostbusters-3-and-gremlins-3-possibly-in-3d-matt-remains-skeptical/“)
Alright, here is the official Gremlins Online take on things:
I was not planning on commenting on this due to the fact that it is nothing more than a rumor being spread by various gossip and rumor sites (AKA Perez Hilton, etc) and people are thinking it is a confirmed fact since their favorite blogger posted it.
Until we hear word that Gremlins 3 (Or Gremlins 3-D as the name likely will be if it were 3-D) has gotten a green light, and there is a production number
assigned, it is nothing but rumor and speculation.
This is not to say that the rumors are absolutely without merit. 3-D films are proving to be a huge hit right now, with Avatar and recent Disney films raking in big bucks it is reasonable to speculate Gremlins being filmed in 3-D to make an exciting and fun Gremlins experience.
If we hear a specific source, there will be word, and I promise you if we get anything to add to the story, it will be posted here immediately.
As for the emails and messages, good looking out folks! Looks like there is a ton of interest in a new Gremlins film, and if it were to be in 3-d, it would be a great time for all in the theatre!
Gremlins 3 Remake? Reboot? Sequel?
There has been a lot of rumors and discussion regarding Gremlins 3 actually being a remake or reboot instead of a sequel, and looking at the current Hollywood climate, it sure seems likely, but why?
Logically a remake would attract more theatregoers than Gremlins 3 would.
Fans of the gremlins franchise will see anything Gremlins in the theatre, be it Gremlins 3 or a remake/reboot. So those are guaranteed customers and do not factor in to the math.
However, as it has been nearly 20 years since we have last seen Gremlins in any form (commercials, games, and DVD releases not withstanding) there is an entire generation of potential ticket sales that have never even seen Gremlins in the media. Those customers are unlikely to see a sequel to a movie they never have seen before. Sure some might rent the previous films but they frankly do not have the legacy that other long-dormant movie franchises (like Ghostbusters) do.
Let’s try it this way:
Say there are a million people who are guaranteed ticket sales. They love the previous movies, and would absolutely see a new one in the theatre, regardless of it being a reboot or sequel.
Remake: 1 Million
Sequel: 1 Million
Now let’s take the rest of the moviegoing poulation, and pretend it is 10 million more people. They are undecided.
Undecided: 10m
Remake: 1m
Sequel: 1m
Of that 10m undecided a good number are going to be under the age of 18, as most people who make up the bulk of ticket sales are youth. Let’s number them at 7 Million.
Undecided Adults: 3m
Undecided Youth: 7m
Remake: 1m
Sequel: 1m
Here is where we diverge.

Gremlins for Christmas & 25th Anniversary Rumors!
Heyas all!
First off, for those of you who follow the time honored Gremlins Online tradition of watching Gremlins every year right around christmas time, but haven’t broken down and purchased your very own Gremlins Special Edition DVD, Gremlins is airing on AMC pretty regularly through the holidays. Surprisingly, it is the unedited version with the complete microwave, blender and fireplace sequences!
If you have cable, be sure to check it out at the following upcoming showtimes:
Sun Dec 28 @ 6:30AM | 5:30C
Mon Dec 29 @ 1AM | 12C
Mon Dec 29 @ 7:30AM | 6:30C
I have also gotten word that there is supposed to be a new dvd release of Gremlins with some all-new special features in 2009. This would coincide with the 25th anniversary of the original film, so hopefully Warner Bros will go all out for this one and give us a version that has the deleted scenes included in the flow of the film! More updates as I discover more!
{Gremlins 3 Rumor Mill} Zach Galligan comments on Sacha’s Gremlins Clips & BT Commercial.
From Zach Galligan’s Personal Blog: (source)
People have been asking me lately if I’ve seen the BT spot that features gremlins. I have, and you can see it here.
People have also been asking if the tremendous response to the spot in the UK has in any way given momentum to future Gremlins projects, including a possible Gremlins 3.
The answer to that question is: in a way, yes. That’s all I can say right now.
Additionally, a young man named Sacha Feiner has created one of the most astounding Gremlins clips ever. It really defies description, so if you’re a fan, you can watch it here. But be sure to watch the jaw-dropping, hard-to-believe-but-true “Making Of” clip here. I guarantee you, you won’t forget it.
And yes, I can tell you that the people responsible for Gremlins have seen it too, and are pretty darn impressed.
That is all.
What does that mean for us Gremlins fans? Only time will tell! Stay Tuned for more info as it pops up!

Keep in mind he is an acting teacher at NYU and his schedule prevents him from blogging regularly, so updates may be infrequent.
