An expected fan question: "Will there be a Tremors 5?" An unexpected fan question: "...don't
you think a 5th movie is pushing the envelope just a little?" |
| Q |
Okay, we give up; Universal and SciFi are never going to sell action figures. We want to build
our own, but we need more info on the creatures! |
| Q |
How come Graboids don't leave trails behind them like moles do when digging through the earth?
They must displace more sand than a mole does? |

Why are there no Tremors comics? What about Dark Horse? What about Platinum? |

We notice that when loading a weapon Burt often taps the magazine (box which holds the

| Q |
At the end of each movie, what do they do with all the dead Graboids, ABs, Shriekers, and "dirt

it different in the series? |

Was it hard to get Michael Gross to return to play Burt throughout the films and series, and

Where is Perfection Valley really supposed to be? In Tremors 1 and 3 as well as the series you
say it is near Las Vegas, but in Tremors 4 you have it near Carson City. |
| Q |
How about Tremors as a cartoon series? After all, way back in 1990 they did Attack of the
Killer Tomatoes as a cartoon. |
| Q |
I've been wanting to make a scale model of Chang's Market. I'm using the measurements that were
given in the Tremors FAQ which indicate the building was rectangular. But in the series, the
market looks square. Is it in fact rectangular in the movies and square in the series? |
| Q |
If Stampede Entertainment created the movies and the series,
why does Universal and Sci-Fi Network own and control all the rights to Tremors, and not
Stampede? |
| Q |
What is wrong with Universal? Why don’t they get it? Don’t the great reviews of the Tremors
movies help Tremors 5? Can’t you somehow get the rights back from them? What if we got
together a petition in support of T-5 with a zillion names on it? What if the fans all chipped
in to pay for more Tremors?? |
| Q |
How come when we see just a a Graboid head pop up it can swallow a human whole, but when we see
the whole body above ground the head looks like 3 times smaller? |
| Q |
How fast can a Graboid travel in the ground. Many of my friends think it can travel about
40-50 mph. Is that right? |
| Q |
How deep can Graboid “dive” underground before it is crushed by the pressure of rocks and dirt? |
| Q |
If Shriekers and ABs have infrared “vision,” then how come the heat of the desert doesn't show
up when you show the view from the creatures? You can see human's body heat, but you can't see
any heat from the ground, hot metal, etc. Why is that? |
| Q |
Do the Tremors creatures change in order to pursue specific prey, i.e. Graboids go after larger
animals while ABs go after prey that climbs or flies? |
| Q |
How do Graboids get water? Underground? Or do they get all they need from prey? |
| Q |
We want to go to the Tremors locations. Can you help us? |
| Q |
Why don't Graboids attack each other when they detect each other moving underground? |
| Q |
In a battle, which one would win: a Tyrannosaurus Rex or and a Graboid? |
| Q |
Are the creatures ever going to go underwater? |
| Q |
I've been wanting to make a scale model of Chang's Market. I'm using the measurements that were
given off the FAQ which shows the building as being rectangular. But when looking at a picture
of the series market it looks square. I was wondering if in the movies Chang's is rectangular
and in the series its square?
|
| Q |
How long will Universal's copyright/trademark over Tremors remain in effect before it reverts
to Stampede? Is there any chance the DVDs were released solely to retain ownership of the
franchise?
|
| Q |
What happened to the scripts/notes developed for the Val/Earl series, (pre Tremors 2), that
weren't used for the Tremors 2003 Series? Does Stampede still own those? |
| Q |
Since T5 was axed (again), where do you see the town of perfection, and Burt now? What do you
envision they have been doing for the past 6 years? |
| Q |
Have you ever thought about what ultimately might happen with Graboids in the Tremors universe?
Would they fade away and stop hatching or would they rise up and overrun the Earth (or is that
under
run)? |
| Q |
Is Burt the last Gummer? Did you ever envision him having any siblings, or maybe a child grown
up before Heather and Burt settled in Perfection? |
| Q |
Where can I find out more about Tremors? |
