True, but it seems to me that's been going on for the last two decades (first with 70's retro and now 80's retro). Hopefully the new story will try to alter the commentary to reflect our current socio-political climate, rather than just rehashing the 80's film with new tech and SFX.

The first Gremlins was a product of the 80's as well (and the second was self-parody of the first film as well as then-recent events).

If they do make a third one, I hope it's a complete reboot and update to the basic story. Imagine the FBI, Homeland Security or the NSA being brought in to deal with suspected terrorist events that are actually the work of the Gremlins.

I guess it would all depend on what kind of tone the filmmakers want to set and whether or not the new film would be a sequel or a reboot.
