Why can't we just leave well enough alone.
Corporate greed
The second they (hollywood) fucked with The Three Stooges I knew they have no boundaries they won't cross. Want to bet they attempt to A.I Bob Barker for another fight scene?
Definitely going to be Drew
Welcome to modern media, where nothing is new and everything is a "reboot" or a "sequel". you'll get regurgitated slop passed between a few media conglomerates and if anything actually ends up decent it'll be canned and wiped from the earth before anyone can see it.
Let good things be. Stop it.
Sandler's goofy, weird speaking & mannerisms worked when he was 20. They don't work now that he's an aging middle aged man. He just seems... Idk man, I don't have a better word for it. He just seems retarded.
Always has. Wasn't that the whole joke of Billy Madison?
Waterboy. Little Nicky.
Sounds extra lame
Don't do this, Netflix. Happy Gilmore is sacred ground.
Sandler said Shooter McGavin already leaked it... appears they have all the (surviving) cast on board.
I'm not going to watch it but I'm happy shooter is getting a paycheck. He's such an underrated character actor.
yeah, given sandler's last few years I'm hopeful but not expecting a hit.
mahn has there ever been a good sequel to a cult classic? i dont think so. this sounds terrible.
Blade Runner
Planet of the apes, kinda. On the second try at least.
Mad Max.
Wayne’s world 2
True, but that wasn't made 30 years later. The era and age in which Sandler's material worked is long gone.
While true, there's very very few that were good when made decades after the last one.
you found one!!
Alien / Aliens
Unbreakable / Split (but not Glass!)
Clerks 2
I feel like I’m the only person who loved Clerks and did not enjoy Clerks 2 at all
Why?
How about Grandma’s Boy 2?
would love this but there are some serious problems with some of the actors apparently.
Also appears that Allen Covert, the star, is doing more behind the camera work these days. But considering how very on point the movie was deriding the game industry, a return to the universe could be fun.
Can he just retire? Please?

Bring back mind hunter you dumb fucks and maybe I will resub.
