Loads of people: “Sandler did pretty well making those non comedy movies didn’t he”

Sandler: “hold my beer”

I’ll watch it. But I do expect it to be completely shite - and I enjoyed the first one. I guess I was probably just about young enough at the time to have extremely low standards (I was around 11/12). Not that my standards have improved much, mind.

Did anyone read the story? According to Christopher McDonald, Sandler told him he's beginning to write the story for Happy Gilmore 2. Doesn't mean it's going to get made.

If he got Grown Ups and Grown Ups 2 made then this thing will in the books within the month.

Along with the wedding singer , probably two of my favourite comedy’s of all time. I worked in xtra vision video store back in the 90s and played happy Gilemore every night.

It wasn’t as big a hit and I was a bit of a dick when people asked me about renting it. We only had one copy and I’d say a customer said it was broken so I had to play it all the way through.

I hope it can find the fun of the first, I mean you could argue it’s Ben strillers best role ever “why don’t you have a nice warm glass of shut the hell up. Check out the name tag, you’re in my world now granny”…

Priceless that you would refuse to rent it out :lol:

Play the ball where it lies..it's in the rule book.. I'm sure it's not in the rules I have to hit it off bigfoots foot :lol:

I like The Wedding Singer, Billy Madison, Waterboy, 50 First Dates and Bedtime Stories.

As for Ben Stiller I think he was great in Dodgeball and Tropic Thunder (although everyone was fecking amazing in that, with Tom Cruise stealing the show) but honestly Heavyweights might be my favourite. It's a kids film but it's hilarious. He's such a prick and his over the top style works well in that type of movie.

Apparently Sydney Sweeney is cast as Cart Girl and Paige Spirinac as Public Relations Lady.

I'll probably watch it, just for research purposes.

:lol: Shooter is such a great character.

Trying to reach the green from here Shooter?...

That's not possible sir

I disagree, Happy Gilmore accomplished that fest no less than an hour ago...

Well good for Happy Gilm...OH MY GOD :lol:

Because Sandler wants to have a two month long holiday with his mates, and you can make it tax deductable if you film a movie in between nights out drinking your body weight in gin.
I honestly rate this about him so highly.

His films for years have just been an excuse to go on a luxurious holiday and get paid for it. Fair fecks.

Yeah I love it as well. I know I would do it if I was rolling in cash like he is and people kept green lighting my proposals.

I want to say "why?" but I know the answer - $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Getting paid millions for rolling out massive turds would be very hard to refuse.

Manchester Utd never lose, just run out of time

On a related note, was Grown Ups 2 any good?

I don't like most of Sandler's movies, but Grown Ups is right up there with Happy Gilmore as the big exceptions. Maybe it's because I had such low expectations for it but I was wonderfully surprised; had me in absolute stiches at times. Never got around to watching the sequel though as I can't help but think it'll be over-the-top cheesy and shit, but then again that's what I expected from the first one before watching it.

The second one is meh, ok ish to pass some time but it's nowhere near as good as the first one.

The second one is basically a whole lot of different SNL clips stitched together scene after scene. It tries way too hard to force any sort of humor. Had its moments but the first one is much better.

I don't mean to dampen expectations but people too easily forget about the experience of watching Anchorman 2
I admit it was nowhere near as good as the first, but that set such a high bar to be fair. The second isn't as bad as everyone makes out imho as it still has some really funny moments, just not as many and too much silliness in-between.
