Apparently Joe Dante, the director of both Gremlins movie initially refused to make the second one. But after the studio gave him a lot of money and complete creative control, he agreed to make Gremlins 2. And with that creative control he decided to make it a parody of the first one because he didn't really give a shit. And it was great!
