I personally hope it's not in 3D. Even if it is, I'll only watch the normal version. And I swear to god, if the gremlins are all CGI instead of puppets...I'm not watching.

And I really doubt such a beloved series will go direct to dvd.

What the hell? I thought the second one was a good stopping point. In a way, I'm hoping for a new cast. I'm definitely hoping they don't follow the 3D trend. Damn it! Not every remake and bastardized version of our beloved cartoons/ long lost sequels to our beloved movies has to be another shitty 3D movie. I sure hope people get over this trend soon, so it can die a slow painful death.

Every fucking movie is in 3D these days
dear jeebus

I just wish Joe Dante would get involved with this. If it's going to happen, HE needs to head it. If anything, just to make sure it dosen't wind up a CGI/3D bastardization of our fond memories.
