\"Gremlins\"<\/a>Warners Brothers is currently in negotiations with Steven Spielberg\u2019s Amblin Entertainment for the remake rights to director Joe Dante\u2019s classic horror-comedy Gremlins<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t the first time that the studio has approached Amblin about the film rights, but Vulture<\/a> is reporting that this time \u201cthat it might just actually come off this time.\u201d Previous attempts were scuttled over price and the possibility of Spielberg\u2019s involvement, presumably in a producer capacity. Vulture also stated that \u201cA Spielberg spokesman said that the appropriate executives were not available for comment.\u201d<\/p>\n

Although a big hit when released in 1984, Dante\u2019s film was criticized in some corners for its level of violence by those who sort of missed the point that it was trying to be a live-action cartoon. The 1990 sequel toned the violence down a bit. In both films, Dante included a number of nods to the classic horror films that he was a fan of.<\/p>\n

It’s not the first time that the studio has wanted to but this time may be different.<\/div>\n
