Well, we know Hoyt Axton won't be back.

And before anyone asks, in an interview a few months ago he said if there ever was a third film and he was involved it would use practical puppets.

Society has time on it's hands when it has distinguishing phrases like "CGI puppets" and "practical puppets".

I can't wait to see what they'll do. I always liked the RLM concept that they take over the White House next.

Good to know. I think that if CGI has to be used, I think it would be better for it to be mixed.

They’d probably improve things massively right now TBH.

Would they risk doing a parody of January 6th with Gremlins invading the senate chamber?

Billy-Oh my god. Look at what they did to congress!

I'd be way more excited if Joe Dante was returning.

Personally, I'd just have the main character vacationing for Christmas on a tropical island while a hurricane happens. Instant chaos.
