Adam Sandler's 'Happy Gilmore 2' Officially Confirmed at Netflix
NewsDrew Carrey will show up, punch happy and say “the price is still wrong”
Fun Fact: Drew Carey is only 7 years younger now than Bob Barker was when he starred in Happy Gilmore.
Jesus that's insane. Seems like just yesterday I was watching him sing "Cleveland rocks!" every week.
The one that freaks me out the most is looking back at Ryan Reynolds in Two Guys, A Girl, and a Pizza Place. That was almost 30 years ago! But he still looks so young.
I have a friend who though I made that show up. Like it don't stream anywhere not on DVD like it seems like a fever dream sometimes
I downloaded it. Got it on plex
Im going to refuse to believe that so i continue to not feel old.
It does not compute that Drew Carey has been the host for 17 years
Bitch
I know there’s some satire in all this, but my god I want this lol.
Watching Drew Carey kick the shit out of Adam Sandler on a golf course would be absolutely hilarious.
Can Ryan Stiles be the “jackass” guy since Mr Flahtery has passed away?
I knew a guy who heckled pro golfers, you know what happened to him?
HE'S DEAD NOW.
At least get Diedrich
Drew Carey is just a likable sarcastic guy. I want him to go full Wayne Brady on Chapell’s Show.
I make Bryant Gumbel look like Malcolm X, huh motherfucker?

I am sure Drew Carey could throttle people from all different walks of life if he wanted to, but I am pretty certain he doesn’t want to.
I believe it. He seems like a dude with a great sense of humor that could kick some a serious ass.
You don't grow up in Cleveland in the 60s-70s with a name like Drew Allison Carey and not know how to throw some punches.
I just saw Phish at the sphere, as did Drew for his first time. Highly recommend looking up his rants on the topic, dude knows how to have a good time.
was in pretty good shape before he got into comedy.
Damn you, comedy!
"Bob sends his regards, bitch."
I feel like, if AS wants to use his fame and talent to have fun and make his family happy that’s totally fine. If the movies come out good that’s just like a bonus. Either way, he’s already made some beloved movies to me and he owes me nothing. And all jokes aside, that sounds like a fun movie.
Yep the man has made enough good movies that I don’t care if what he puts out isn’t any good I’ll still atleast give them one watch through. Happy Gilmore and billy Madison were comfort movies for me growing up.
With Phish blaring in the back ground!
The thought of plugging Drew Carey into Bob Barker's spot had never occurred to me, but I need it.
And Drew was in the Marine Corps at one point in time.
I don't see how that is relevant, but it is accurate!
Next game will be... Scenes in a hat
Give it up for Laura Hall and Linda Taylor!
But they need to completely hide his involvement. Absolutely no media about Drew being in it.
I mean if that happens the movie would be worth it just for that
Okay now I REALLY want to see this movie!
I will pay the $12.50 just to see that.
I'm not kidding when I say that if they can't do this, they just shouldn't make the movie at all.
I’m counting on this being in the movie.
Let's flip it - she is in the LPGA but wants to be a hockey player
But plays hockey in cleats and with a 9-iron!
Where does Kevin James fit in?
He’ll be one of the LPGA commentators, either as a character or as a joke about being the only celebrity they could get as a guest commentator.
I didn't realize I needed a Sandler movie where Kevin James literally just plays Kevin James, but now I really hope this happens at some point
He does in "You Don't Mess with the Zohan".
He'll be mistaken for Drew Carey, except Drew is fit now, and will come out from behind him, and then the two of them will tag team beat up Sandler.
Trotsky
Hes a very serious person
Won’t happen but if he’s competing on the tour as Doug Heffernan I’d be delighted
He doesn't fit in, he stands out.
What if it went the other way.
HG's daughter has had a fairly successful run as an aspiring golfer. Happy and his wife supported her and she used HG's swing.
Something happens that makes the swing stop working and she discovers hockey. Gets into it and ends up in conflict with the team captain - Shooter's daughter.
Shooter can't believe another Gilmore is going to screw him over and aims to retaliate however he can.
Hijinks ensure.
This is the best bad idea I’ve heard all day
Implying Sandler and co would grift Netflix into paying for a vacation to Canada.
I love Sandler, but this is too good and clever enough that it will never happen.
I have a feeling they are going to lean in to all the best original jokes from the first one and beat us over the head with them until we lose the nostalgia that we've held on to for that movie
"You still eat pieces of shit for breakfast, don't you Governor?"
GET IN THE HOLE!
“ that’s your home, are you too good for your home?”
I quote this all the time to anything that applies lmao it’s so fucking good
How creatively bankrupt are all of these people?
Next we will get Billy Madison 2, The Waterboy 2, The Longest Yard 2, and so in.
Big Grandaddy
As he's being trotted off to a retirement community against his will "BUT I WIPE MY OWN ASS."
Big Nicky
You need a couple direct sequels to lead into the Sandler multiverse
Longest Yard was already a remake
Definitely. And I bet Shooter has a daughter competing in the LPGA as well
A father/daughter match between the two teams would be excellent.
I was thinking the Simpsons with the minigolf challenge: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I0ssD56qmPk
It was father/son but Sandler could probably take that exact script word for word and make a happy gilmore movie out of it.
You will forgive an ol' Brit for crying, but this is the most stirring display of gallantry and sportsmanship since Mountbatten gave India back to the Punjabs.
💀
Nick Swardson will be a wierd high school teacher
“Who does Kevin James play?”
“Ha-Ha, it’s a serious movie,….
Trotzki”
McDonald was the one who let us know Happy Gilmore 2 was being made about 3 months ago, so it's pretty certain he's in it.
I always thought they would do a parody of creed because Carl weathers played both parts. Happy could mentor chubbs son
Michael B Jordan as Chubb's son?
Shooter McGavins daughter will be her rival in high school
But other than that, pretty spot on I think lol
Looks like Rob Schneider can get caught back up on his mortgage payments.
Rob Schneider is a carrot
Rob Schneider is a stapler
Rob Schneider is der dipity derp dee derp deeper dum
A derp de derp, da teedly tum!
Come see that being a stapler isn't all it's cracked up to be!
Because fuck you! You'll see it anyway.
Rated PG-13.
Oh that's the stuff right there.
He can DO it!
What his Ben Shapiro cheques weren’t clearing?
Favorite comment on the trailer for that show is "Why didn't they put any jokes in the trailer?"
You can count on me waiting for this unnecessary remake in the parking lot
I eat pieces of shit remakes like this for breakfast.
you eat pieces of shit for breakfast?
NO!!!
Just stay out of my way, or you'll pay! Listen to what I say!
why don't I just go eat some hay? make things out of clay, lay by the bay, I just may!
WHAT ARE YOU DOING???
Just looking for the rest of my bottle. Look there's a piece.
Put it down!
Yeah, I know.
You just may!
His delivery of that no is extra hilarious for some reason
Great line delivery. Shoota
..n...no!
Trying to reach the green from here, Shooter?
That's not possible sir.
I beg to differ, Happy Gilmore accomplished that feat no more than an hour ago.
Well, moron, good for Happy Gilmo-OH MY GOD
Hey Shooter you forgot your 9 iron.....(6 million dollar man sound)
My favorite line.
I had to hit the ball off Frankenstein's fat foot!
You can trouble me for a nice warm glass of shut the hell up. See this name tag? You’re in my world now!
Now you will go to sleep, or I will put you to sleep.
'mY fInGeRs HuRt' well now your back's gonna hurt, cause you just pulled yard duty!
Remakes and sequels are different things
Except when they aren't. Looking at you star wars!
Good counter example. Okay they’re not supposed to be the same thing lol
Also, Avatar
Good for Ted Sarando-mo-my-GOD!
"Guns don't kill creativity in Hollywood. Unnecessary-sequel-fan-slop kills creativity in Hollywood."
Guns don't kill creativity in Hollywood.
They do on the Rust set.
Good news, everybody. We're extending the Happy Gilmore cinematic universe time by 2 hours today.
My fingers hurt
Well now your back is going to hurt because you just pulled landscaping duty.
Anyone else’s fingers hurt?
I didn’t think so.
Why you gotta do that to me huh? Why you gotta embarrass me in front of everyone?
Heyy Mr. Gilmore, what a tremendous trophy!
Check out the name tag. You’re in my world now grandma.
This is handmade quality shit we’re talking about here, Marty.
Please Adam just give it actual effort one last time, If this isnt good its going to get SHIT on hard.
Since the 1st one is actually a solid movie for what it is.
I need more Nursing Home Ben Stiller
You will sleep or I will put you to sleep
You can trouble me for a glass of shut the hell up, you’re in my world now grandma
Fucking hysterical.
Now your back's gonna hurt, because you just pulled landscaping duty.
Oh your fingers hurt?

Hubie Halloween is delightfully stupid and fun
Right and Grizzly Adams had a beard
Grizzly Adams did have a beard.
Lee Trevino was robbed of his Oscar
Lee Trevino did robbed of his Oscar
My stepmom tripped and fell backwards grabbing a tree branch to regain her balance. When she stood up to turn around, she noticed that the tree branch was actually Lee Trevino's bicep and she blushed and instinctively squeezed it. She said it was as hard as a rock, and Lee looked at her winked, flexed, and said "you like that?"
Why the fuck would Shooter think that someone named Grizzly Adams WOULDN'T have a beard?!
This can honestly be Sandlers next great film or it could be Joe dirt 2 all over again.
There was a Joe Dirt 2?
Maybe the worst sequel of all time.
Zoolander 2 competes for that title
Zoolander 2 wins. Even with how atrocious Joe Dirt 2 was, Zoolander 2 easily wins. It was also a much bigger drop off, as I (and I think most people) would agree that Zoolander is better than Joe Dirt. But if someone thinks the opposite that isn't a super crazy opinion either.
Anchorman 2 is also a massive drop off. I didn't get past the first 10 minutes and I saw the original like 100 times.
Yea, it was a Crackle original lmao. It honestly wasn’t worth signing up for the free platform to watch.
Sandler taking his friends and family on another vacation. Happy Gilmore: Hawaii
I work in the film industry in Vancouver, and an acquaintance of mine recently told me “it looks like her crew is gonna get booked on some golf movie”. The first one was shot here, so I reckon we’ll get this one too.
Furry Creek and Swaneset! Great courses!
Yeah, alright. See you guys there * blows massive raspberry while giving a thumbs down *
I don't want it without Chubbs in the clouds as a guardian angel
Unfortunately Carl Weathers passed away in real life recently :(
I eat pieces of shit like this unnecessary sequel for breakfast.
Happy Gilmore 2: The Search for More Money
I mean, Adam threatened us with bad Netflix movies when he lost out on his Uncut Gems award. Figure it was either this or Grown Ups 3 since originality is out the window...and I dare him to do a sequel to Billy Madison.
Adam Sandler was really good in Hustle actually. Not the most amazing movie ever by far but really entertaining and well paced
I’m a big fan of a lot of his newer movies. Even Leo was pretty good. The Sandman knows how to make movies I like
You know, his run since 2017 has actually been rather good
Meyerowitz Stories, Uncut Gems, Hustle and Spaceman, all dramatic performances, all supposed to be good (Haven't seen Meyerowitz stories or spaceman yet)
Even his comedies don't seem to be as bad before
Not to mention he has another Noah Baumbach movie that's in the can with George Clooney, Billy Crudup and Laura Dern
The Murder Mystery films are fun
I had the first one sat on my watch list for years and only watched it when the sequel came out. Absolutely loved them
No mention of his best movie in that time frame… Hubie Halloween
This feels like a bad idea.
Apparently his movies do extremely well on Netflix. So financially it's not a bad idea - quality wise might be another story, but Netflix doesn't exactly care about quality.
You can trouble me for a warm glass of shut the hell up
Well now your back is gonna hurt. Guess who just pulled landscaping duty
Now you will go to sleep, or I will put you to sleep.
Check out the name tag. You’re in my world now, grandma.
oh, dear
You know that mista mista lady? I think I just killed her.
Is nothing sacred?

I watched Super Troopers 2 on a plane and I remember it being not as bad as I anticipated. I feel like there were a decent amount of new original gags that were not just “hey remember that joke from the first movie”
It could have been the Xanax though…
It was a pretty funny movie. It just gets lumped in with the rest for some reason.
It wasn’t a bad movie, it just wasn’t a memorable movie. It’s hard to make a good comedy sequel when the original was S-tier.
Agreed. Thorny on birth control pills was HILARIOUS.
I thought Anchorman 2 was pretty funny, not nearly as good as the first but it doesn't belong with those other abominations.
Gotta love all of the comments. Could be bad but who gives a fuck. Godspeed Mr. Sandler.
This might not suck depending what direction they take it. I think there's a decent amount avenues they could take.
- Did Happy stay on the tour all these years, and if so, is his career winding down like Spinal Tap?
- Did Chubbs have a son that Happy is going to mentor or something?
- Did Shooter call out Happy on social media, causing Happy to come out of retirement for one last round?
- Are we going to see Drew Carey and Happy duke it out?
- Is the tour losing market share to LIV's equivalent, and is Happy the answer to getting viewers back?
- I hope he's still with Virginia.
• Is the tour losing market share to LIV's equivalent, and is Happy the answer to getting viewers back?
This but shooter and happy team up against two “LIV” players in some special tournament
Are we going to see Drew Carey and Happy duke it out?
Okay... that might be worth it.
fails
Netflix to Sandler: “Where were you on that one, dipshit?
Well good for happy gilmorrr oh MY GOD!...
I can't think of a single legacy sequel being good. Anchorman 2, Dumb and Dumber 2, Zoolander 2, Hocus Pocus 2. Even Bill and Ted didn't really need to exist.
Blade Runner 2049
This movie is amazing. But that said, all of the above are silly comedies. Hard to catch that lightening twice. Sci-fi gains the benefit of more modern production, comedy doesn't.
I assume you mean Bill & Ted 3, because Bill & Ted 2 was the bees knees.
“Legacy sequel” seems to refer to sequels that came a little too late (how late is subjective).
Bill and Ted 2 was two years after the original which is striking the iron when it’s hot. Even Austin Powers had three films in a five-year span and that worked out (at least they weren’t Zoolander 2 level disasters).
Top Gun Maverick was pretty solid
And I did like Bill and Ted
Tron Legacy
The Color of Money
Blade Runner 2049
But the people wanted Hubie Halloween 2…
Nah
Prediction: This movie will be about Happy Gilmore's daughter (Played by Adam Sandler's real life daughter) trying to make it to the LPGA. She'll be trained by Chubb's son (Played by Chris Rock) and crew of motley characters (David Spade, Rob Schneider, Steve Buscemi, Jackie Sandler) as she tries to navigate high school and living up to her dad's legacy.
Coming back for the sequel will be Julie Bowen as Happy's ex-wife and Christopher McDonald as Governor "Shooter" McGavin. It'll also take place in Hawaii because Adam Sandler needs another vacation.
