Gremlins 2: The New Batch

Stop the music!

Eh, what's up, duck?

What's up? I'll tell you what's up.

I'm taking charge here. That's what's up.

Fifty years of you

hogging the spotlight is enough.

I am riding the shield from now on

because I personally

have all the talent around here.

Okay, Mac, let's take it from the top.

Ooh, okay, far enough.

Now then, camera, music, sound.

Ho-ho. Very funny.

You may expect to hear from my attorneys.

Ooh. Oh. Ooh, ow, ow, ah, ooh.

Ow. Ooh. Ooh.

Well, if I'm not gonna star in this cartoon

we might as well just start the movie.

Roll 'em.

Mr. Wing.

Daniel Clamp would like to speak to you.

Good morning, Mr. Wing.

Um.. Oh, let's cut right to the key issues, okay?

I'm prepared to increase my offer substantially.

Now, Mr. Wing, you're attached to your business.

I appreciate that. I'm attached to my business.

I develop the biggest buildings in New York

and you sell, um, little things.

Uh, that's fine. Uh, take a look, Mr. Wing.

The, uh, Clamp Chinatown Center where business gets oriented.

Now, Mr. Wing, you're the only holdout

so let me tell you what I'm willing to do for you.

A newsstand and souvenir concession

right here under the atrium.

This building will be state-of-the-art

from the voice-activated elevators

right down to the self-cleaning ashtrays.

I'm really excited about it

and I'd hate to see you miss out.

Please, let us know when you've made a decision, Mr. Wing.

You know, I believe there's always an area of agreement

that two people can reach.

Yes.

A man can always agree with others.

It is more difficult

to agree with oneself.

That's very charming. Confucius or Bruce Lee?

I'm sorry, uh, please tell Mr. Clamp

that the answer is still no.

Please..

Keep the TV.

TV. TV.

Oh, oh, oh.

Rambo.

Boom. Boom..

Boom, boom.

To survive a war, you got to become war.

Boom. Boom.

Television again. Ai-ya. An invention for fools.

Huh.

I'm sorry that didn't work out, sir.

I thought Mr. Clamp's offer was most generous.

Did you hear that cough? He's an antique.

We can wait.

Hi. This is Daniel Clamp.

You know, no visit to New York is complete

without a tour of the world's

most fully-automated office building

my Clamp Premiere Regency Trade Center and Retail Concourse

headquarters of Clamp Enterprises

and home of CCN, Clamp Cable Network Television.

The death of Mr. Wing removes the last obstacle

to developer Daniel Clamp's long-delayed Chinatown project.

This quaint little shop, which once housed

many rare objects from the orient

must now make way for the future, Daniel Clamp style.

Well, Lewis, it's like I've always said.

If you wanna find something weird, you have to go downtown.

You know, tomorrow's when the Futtermans are coming to town.

Oh, right, well, Mr. Futterman must really

be getting better if he can travel.

Well, his wife says he is getting better.

He was just kind of rattled.

Well, I guess having a bunch of little monsters

drive a snowplow through your living room

could kinda do that to you.

Well, he was almost killed. Hey.

These people are so rude.

Honey, what time is it?

God, we're late. There's a cab. Come on.

- You going airport? - No. Actually, I'm just...

I don't know, we've been living here all this time

and I'm still in the same job.

It takes time, baby.

Yeah, but if we'd stayed in Kingston Falls

I probably would have been promoted twice

at the bank by now.

Yeah, and you'd hate it.

I don't know, at least we could afford

to get a a decent place to live.

Get married.

Welcome to the Clamp Entry-matic

a revolution in revolving door precision and efficiency.

Please be careful in stepping in and out.

And have a powerful day.

That's the story of the Clamp Premiere Regency Office Center

where one man's dream became a reality.

I hope you enjoyed today's tour.

And don't forget, pick up your copy

of Mr. Clamp's best-selling book "I Took Manhattan"

on sale right here at our newsstand for only 19.95.

And in our gift store you can purchase your very own..

- Don't let them get to you. - I won't.

Billy, you're so good at your job.

Sooner or later they're bound to notice.

- Maybe then we can get married. - Okay, hon.

- Bye. - Bye.

But, Marla, don't you think that the first plan...

Listen, this deadline, it's not my fault.

They're making me miserable, so I have to make you miserable.

It's a complete heart-attack disaster horror story.

I know, but they changed the specs on me a-and they moved t...

You see, Billy, this is your problem right here.

You only see your little part of it.

I have to have a complete situational

long-term overview outlook perspective.

It's as simple as that.

Well, it's almost finished.

- I just have a few... - That courtyard looks cold.

It'll be better with the trees.

Are they gonna plant trees there?

No, but you're going to draw them.

- Yeah, but the way it is now... - Elms.

- But the shrubbery looks so g... - Billy.

This attitude doesn't work for me.

Oh, good morning, Mr. Forster.

It looks like somebody hasn't read his employee manual.

Doesn't it, Mr..

- Peltzer. - Peltzer.

Unauthorized potted plant.

I spoke to him about that plant weeks ago.

I talked to you about that plant.

I know, I was gonna do something, but I just..

Possible aphid infestation.

What's this?

That's Kingston Falls. That's my hometown.

Oh.

Mr. Peltzer, do you know how much the Clamp Organization

has spent to provide its employees

with art by recognized artists at this facility?

Eye-pleasing, color-coordinated, authorized.

I know, but it was just a little...

A little touch. I know.

Maybe everybody here would like to do some little touches.

Coffee mugs that say, "World's greatest lover."

The ashtray that reads, "Rest your butt here."

You'd like that, wouldn't you, Mr. Peltzer?

Coming to work every day

in a $200 million flea market.

Billy, this is just what I don't need right now.

Do you realize we've department review in three weeks?

Well, I-I just felt...

It's a nuclear meltdown disaster. I mean it.

Listen, Marla, I'm doing the best that I can.

Billy, do me a favor.

Do better.

Well, we're getting a low corrosivity reading.

Alright. Uh, give me a waveform on, uh, 10-10,000.

Mr. Forster, I have a potential violator, sir.

Mm-hmm.

Ahem. That's an unauthorized break period, my friend.

You don't work here anymore.

Do we have a problem communicating?

You're gone. Terminated.

End of medical benefits. That's right.

Clean out the desk. One hour.

And thanks so much.

Very nice, Frances.

Alert, Personnel, we have a career opportunity

in level seven.

The Clamp Center is the most advanced

smart building in America

with the latest in security

communications and climate control.

Now, the center is just one part

of Mr. Clamp's round-the-world business network

which includes construction, sports, finance

and, of course, a popular line of jams and jellies.

Now, for those of you who have cable TV at home

the Clamp Cable Network is located

right here in the building.

"The Attack Of The Octopus People."

That's tonight's movie. And, boy, is it scary.

Oh, i-i-it's so scary, it'll uncross your eyes.

It's a good thing that your Grandpa Fred

is here to protect you.

- Where's the moan? - The what?

The moan. There is supposed to be a moan here.

From the coffin.

Then I say, "Oh, Renfield
