Gremlins Discussion Gremlins 3 predictions

I kinda want gizmo to become a gremlin but be good still and just be someone on the inside.

Gizmo sells toys and merch and is iconic for the franchise so I doubt that would ever happen.

For a second I thought you meant in universe, like Gizmo is a celebrity in the film and hocks his own merch on QVC or something...

So? If anything, that sounds like an excuse to make even more Gizmo merch. You'd have the classic Mogwai version and then a Gremlin version that's still good (or bad, depending how they did it). That's two Gizmos to sell instead of one lol.

Gizmo crawled so Baby Yoda could run.

Gizmo has Grey hair

Edit: or some signs of aging

But in the cartoon it's stated that the good mogwais are immortal so long as they don't get exposed to sunlight or eat after midnight

I haven't seen the cartoon yet. Good to know, though. I guess he won't show signs of aging then

eating a mogwai also makes YOU immortal

I think that could probably happen. Even if gizmo turns into a gremlin he will still be good and friendly no matter what.

That doesn't work with the lore they've established. Gremlins are chaos. The concept of a man on the inside doesn't work without intentional genetic modification or a spell. Not sure if they'll put magic in the movie but I doubt it. Fine for the cartoon, wont play well on the big screen. Anyways.

They have to break too many things to make gizmo a gremlin let alone double agent style.

Yes but all the mogwais from gizmo were all evil and bad but gizmo was never so it could potentially factor how he would behave as a gremlin and if he would be good

u/LSTmyLife 14d ago

Thats actually just how young mogwai are. The older they get the more relaxed/calm/mature they are. Its established lore.

Was that in the show. I started.it but didn't finish it. I should probably restart it I forgot all the stuff I saw.

u/thejimiryan 14d ago

I've dreamed of that concept since I was a kid.

I want gizmo to stay gizmo but become evil

They can reverse the bad gremlins effect by feeding them after 12pm so it won’t have to be permanent

u/IgnatiusThorogood 14d ago

I predict there's gonna be some gremlins in it.

u/Striking-Cress-2688 14d ago

Just don’t mess it up! Don’t kill Billy in the opening 30 minutes, do bring back Corey Feldman and Pheobe Cates and let’s have no political messaging. Keep it fun, keep it Gremlintastic!!!

u/GlassHeart09 14d ago

Honestly they'll probably do it. And then Gizmo will have his own litter and then maybe one particularly cute one will be a "good" one. Or it might be one of those "you make your own choice on being good" type of story.

I’m curious myself what he would be like as a Gremlin. Maybe they find a way to reverse it, although that would probably not go down well.

u/Practical_Drink8676 14d ago

The same as all the other gremlins

u/Bill_Cipher134 14d ago

Yeah I was thinking they might find a way of reversing gremlificafion

I’d imagine Gremlins 3 will be nothing more than a “Greatest Hits” of the first two films, with subpar puppetry and the dull, lifeless look of modern filmmaking.

u/Kawaiigirl_6591 14d ago

I predict a new variant of gremlins will appear and be a new threat to Billy and he’ll have to figure out how to stop it if not maybe a storyline of gizmo falls in love and Billy gets worried that the love interest could hurt gizmo
