Don’t forget Gremlins 2 takes place on President’s day!

That is a hugely underrated movie IMO, and the speech where they lampoon the Christmas day speech from the first movie always makes me laugh and it seemed to do the same for the cast because they couldn’t get a completely good take out of them while filming that scene, just look at it, near the end both actors are cracking up.

Ugh, I really dislike that movie. 😄 I don’t know the US holidays that well but it seems that President’s Day is a moving date, no? Or is there a certain date mentioned in the film?

The list is getting better. 😃

Oh, yeah I forgot got about that. Really since all the schools close and we always know when it is coming I tend to forget that the date changes on this one.

I like the fact that Gremlins 2 is a completely different type of movie from the first. To me the trouble with most comedy sequels is that they try to be the same type of movie as the original to the extent that all they do is tell the exact same jokes over again, by being a different type of comedy Gremlins 2 avoids this problem, plus I love it’s wacky Looney Tunes style humor.
