    Sandler is back! Surprised this was so popular.

    The OG Happy Gilmore is fun (rewatched it a few years ago), but I can't imagine watching a sequel (and I am not going to watch it).

    Good for Sandler though!

        He really needed a win after being exceedingly rich and famous for 30 years

          Nostalgia prints, especially at the box office.

          Shame, because Sandler's best work tends to be original. Would have loved to get something on the quality of Uncut Gems again, but I guess retreads like this pay the bills.

                Watched it the other day and thought it was a lot of fun. He got a ton of cameos in there and you can tell they had fun filming it.

                  I had a head cannon version of "Happy Gilmore 2" where Happy has a daughter who he trains to be a golfer from a young age, but she wants to play hockey as an enforcer. I'm just gonna pretend this is what the story was actually about.

                    Yeah, imagine that, being so rich that you can do dumb shit with your friends (who are all celebrities) and that dumb shit somehow prints even more money being fun.

                    Gee, I wonder if I could have fun doing that? Never having to worry about things like finances and doing every stupid thought that ever came to me without real consequence?

                    I mean, like, no shit they had fun.

                      That sounds like my headcanon sequel to Sneakers where Bishop (Robert Redford) uses his newfound anonymity to start over in a small town where he accidentally ends up the high school basketball coach to a bunch of skinny nerds. They make it to the state championships through a combination of phone phreaking and social engineering.

                          I get it. I’ll always hop on the “fuck the rich” train because fuck the rich, but I also need a laugh and a win somewhere before I fucking smash everything in a 12-foot radius with a baseball bat.

                          I also watched it on Stremio because fuck streaming companies.

                              Right, sorry, wasn't trying to imply that them having fun was a bad thing or saying they shouldn't have fun... It's just more like... Who wouldn't have fun doing that??

                                I did and I’m pretty against these legacy sequels. They never seem to do a good job and they are obvious cash grabs but Happy Gilmore 2 was a fun watch.

                                  I don’t know you but based on this one comment it seems like you’re not fun.
