So theres this little boy. It could be a girl. But the kid was definitely white. So one day theres a thing with an old man and the kid finds this small mischievous thing. I cant remember what it looks like.

But... I remember the kid meets the monster at night? And the main menu for the DVD was a bunch of those chattering wind up teeth toys.

Yeah. Its from a LOOOOOOONNNNGGGG time ago. Definitely from the early 2000s, but the movie may be a little older? I dunno, it was a shitty creature feature. But no one dies? I think. Maybe people die. But I dont think so.

Id like to help but it sounds like it was a kid's movie and by the 2000's I was too old for that. so I wouldn't have seen this movie.

I'm sorry, I'm just distracted by your description of the early 2000s as a LOOOOONNNGG time ago. That was like 15 years ago, not a 100.

maybe soldiers can vote early. I understand why they want young soldiers. here is my law proposal

you have to wait until 30 to vote.

people who join the military before the age of 30 get to vote early as a special exception. it's a perk of signing up.

Hey everyone who wasnt born in the 80s! If you want to practice a basic right of the country early, go and risk your life! If you make it back, or if you even make it to voting season, well let you get a shot at this!

Just sign your soul away!

there are plenty of military jobs that never see combat. my dad served in the army for like 20 years and the only time he ever saw "conflict" was when he followed a suspected spy in Germany and radioed in while on their tail to tell the base where to set up a road block.

you still have to directly participate in an entity used to kill people in their home countries. holding the gun or not, no thanks

i mean the description definitely matches gremlins. once you said that i was like yeah i can see that.

i don't have the sequel so i'm not sure if they are discovering gremlins again in that movie or if gremlins are common knowledge. i don't think i've seen the second one.

A part of it is about deadly chattering teeth.

Its definitely not gremlins.

And... maybe the monster was practical effects? I feel like I wouldve remembered it looking super cartoony. But, again, I was 8 years old. I used to think the mouth movements in the first few seasons of the Simpsons were good. My young brain cant be trusted.

That would help immensely!

80's -> early to mid 90's = puppets
90's -> now = crappy to better looking CG

I swear Im not trolling. The most distinct thing I remember about the movie was the chattering teeth toys in the main menu. And I talked to my sister about it earlier and she couldnt remember either. And it absolutely wasnt Gremlins because weve seen that a dozen times
