It looks like the first scene with his bust is for 5 time tour champions, so he keeps playing at a high level after the events of first movie.

But now he needs to get back into playing shape. I wonder what the plot twist will be for him to have stopped playing.

I remember how much this board was pumped for Coming To America 2 and how mad people would get when I told them it was going to mega-suck.

Has there ever been an extremely belated comedy sequel that was good ever? How many have been terrible? ALL OF THEM?

Well guess what? This will be trash.

95% of its "jokes" will be references and call backs to gags in the original.

There will be 0 repeat viewings of this movie by anyone, meanwhile people re still rewatching the original 30 years later.

Real noble & all but would it hurt so much to put a little effort in to it?

This is paint by numbers energy.

This movie may well suck, but I'm still going to watch it.

When I was a poor college kid, we didn't have cable TV. But what we did have was a VHS tape that had Happy Gilmore, Bio-Dome, and Under Siege 2: Dark Territory on it.

We'd get drunk and watch that VHS constantly. Must've seen Happy Gilmore a hundred times. So the movie has a special nostalgic place in my heart. Now if we can get Pauly Shore to make Bio-Dome 2.

Will watch having very low expectations

The excessive cameos give off the Entourage movie vibes (which really ruined it tbh) but could be OK if they don't try to make those PGA guys scripted and funny (they typically arent).

John Daly being in it just makes sense. He is basically the real life version of Happy Gilmore.

Not like she's some A-list actress. And she has spoken how much she loves Sandler and how he's such a good guy, etc.

Sandler pays his people really well too.

Shooter McGavin.

Sidebar

I read a story the other day about two guys that saw Christopher McDonald in the airport. One of the guys yelled “Shooter Mcgavin!” at him. He turns around and starts berating them. “Oh real funny. A 20 year old reference. It would be great if I could go somewhere without dealing with this bullshite.”

They were stunned, shocked. He walks a few yards away, stops, turns around and gives them the two finger guns, thumbs to the chest, and says “SHOOTA.”

This looks absolutely dumb and stupid, and I am all in. The first one was dumb too, and it's awesome. I think people forget how ridiculous the first one was.


this glosses over the incredibly important aspect of what age you were when watching the first one. I'm guessing most people were between the age of 10-21 whenever they first watched HG (whether it was around the time it came out or not) and that dumb sophomoric humor hits right in the sweet spot as a teenager. I was 11 when the first one came out; I'm 39 for the 2nd one. I think SOME people (not necessarily you specifically cocomo) that have that mindset of "well the first one was kind of a bad movie but it was still awesome and I adored it" as a lead-in to this second one are going to be sorely disppointed when they realize that a bad stupid movie as a 40 year old kinda doesn't hit the same.

Dumb and dumber and caddy shack were both stupid but also hilarious and awesome

Dumb and dumber and caddy shack sequels were utter shite

We will see how this is but I don’t have warm and fuzzy feelings about it. It’s tough to follow up a dumb fun movie with a sequel that’s good

Little disappointed that there was no Shooter in that trailer
He was in it. He's the guy screaming at the sky in the rain in what looks like a Shawshank Redemption spoof.

So I guess Shooter breaks out of jail to get Happy?

It looks fun. I'll probably check it out.

It makes sense. They fell in love in the first movie.
