The Reverend Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 I remember being dead excited when the Hulkster popped up in Gremlins 2 when the gremlins stopped the playing of the film and were pissing about in the projection film, and Hogan yelled at them or something. Wasn't there something about this only being in certain prints of the film? I don't think it was in the cinema version only the video version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Brooker Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 According to IMDB... Â "When Gremlins 2 made its debut on home video, the filmmakers altered the film-breaking scene, to make it seem as if VCRs had been broken by the gremlins. This time actor John Wayne (in footage from Chisum forces the gremlins into continuing the film, although voice impersonation was needed since Wayne had been dead since 1979. Wayne's son, Michael Wayne, recommended Chad Everett for the voice. Notably, a clip from Falling Hare, featuring Bugs Bunny and a different, cartoon gremlin, appears in this version. " Â So they subbed in 'John Wayne' for the home video release to make it more authentic. Allegedly it was too authentic a recreation of a VHS going wrong and some people took their copies back to the store. People with short attention spans clearly.

simonworden Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Billy Gun was also on an epidode of Sabrina at some point, no idea now what it was about. Â Funnily enough I watched a very old episode of Last of the Summer Wine the other day to find Big Daddy has a cameo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteelEdge Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 I always remember being pretty surprised to see the Texas Tornado on my screen as I watched Problem Child. That was unexpected. He didn't seem the type, but you knew right away, his mug was pretty unmistakable. Â Not seen it in donkeys years but I don't remember this. When does the Tornado pop up in Problem Child?

LariatTom Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Big Show is in Jingle All The Way when Arnie is in the warehouse of dodgy Santas to get the action figure. He gets into a scrap which results in Show (who must have been in WCW as The Giant at this point) appears and unleashes hell on everyone's favourite Austrian.
