And I will admit, uh, I have had many years to get used to the idea of being friends with Leonard Malton, who is a cameo in Gremlins 2.
podcast-host
I still am always just incredibly excited to be talking to Leonard Malton because I have loved him since his, you know, cameo in Gremlins 2.
podcast-host
Yeah, it was my gateway at Malton.
podcast-host
Piranha.

No, Steven Spielberg watches a lot of movies, by the way.
podcast-host
Like I was recently told by somebody who would know that Steven Spielberg has seen K pop Demon Hunters multiple times.
podcast-host
So
podcast-host
I'm saying he's a curious guy.
podcast-host
He's a curious guy.
podcast-host
And so D Steven Spielberg, he of course goes on to watch Joe Dante's second movie too.
podcast-host
You know, this werewolf movie is called The Howling.
podcast-host
Steven Spielberg even cast the lead of the Howling, Dee Wallace, as the mother in his E.T.
podcast-host
I think he's just a curious guy looking for talent wherever he finds it.
podcast-host
Yeah, he's getting Amblin off the ground.
podcast-host
You know, and so it's around this time that he gets a script written by this young NYU student named Chris Columbus.
podcast-host
Chris is living in this rundown building in New York City while he's going to school, and he's written this monster movie that's like an anti-King Kong, where the monster isn't big, it is small.
podcast-host
Like the mice in his New York City apartment that are freaking him out all the time.
podcast-host
Now, Spielberg doesn't want to direct Gremlins, which is a shocker, if you have known through this podcast the number of times Spielberg has attached himself to something he winds up never making.
podcast-host
But he thinks that this guy, Joe Dante, might do a good job.
podcast-host
So he meets up with Joe and twenty minutes later, Joe has the job.
