Listen Later

Dan & Manny put the 1984 horror-comedy Christmas movie Gremlins to the ultimate test--THE NOSTALGIA TEST! There was so much to talk about, and Dan and Manny try to cover it all. They tried to figure out if Gizmo is a vampire or an alien, how old is Billy (the main character) and why is he hanging out with a middle school kid (Corey Feldman), and Billy's dad being the absolute worst husband, dad, and inventor. Settle in, because this movie, to quote Manny, is "Chockful of Nostalgia."----more----

They also talk about: 

  • Why would anyone want a pet with 3 high-stakes rules? 
  • Steven Spielberg is self-indulgent. 
  • Billy's mom is a badass!
  • Gremlins was filmed on the Back To The Future set but it could've been the set of Groundhogs Day or Gilmore Girls
  • Everyone is way too relaxed around these multiplying creatures.
  • Again, how old is Billy?
