        Why the fuck is Tron on this list? Tron Legacy is a great sequel.

            Ah, I thought it was talking about The Hobbit trilogy, the Star Wars Prequels/Sequels, Bill & Ted Face the Music (though I haven’t seen it myself).

              I wouldn’t put Face the Music on the same level as Excellent Adventure, but I liked it as much as Bogus Journey. Alex Winter got back into the role of Bill so easily it was almost concerning.

        I recently found out there are actually multiple entries into the megamind franchise, including at least one new feature length movie and a tv series. None of which have any members of the voice actors from the masterpiece that is the original film, and all of which have some of the worst ratings I’ve ever seen on review sites.

        Both Bill and Ted sequels were horrible. The third was actually worse than #2.

        Bill and Ted 1 was a perfect movie.

      I legit love Super Troopers 2. I regularly rewatch it, especially the Hockey Night in Canada scene. Highly recommend.

      I felt like super troopers was a proper sequel. Enough throwbacks to keep fans entertained without just being a rehash of the old one.

      Same with clerks 3.

        Clerks…3?

        I was a huge Kevin smith fan as a kid. But…clerks 3? Is it really worth it? I could get into enjoying some of it again, but I just, yknow, inferred it’d be bad.

    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.

    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.

        If we’re counting Alien as a cult classic, then The Terminator / Terminator 2 as well. The first is a horror movie about a waitress trapped in a time loop that ends with the apocalypse. The second is a transhumanist masterpiece where she’s a psycho guerilla ready to fight god.

      Austin Powers, depending on how you classify the original. Not belated - just a big jump from a minor oddity to a massive sequel.

      EMPIRE ?

      Dante Hicks: “Empire” had the better ending. I mean, Luke gets his hand cut off, finds out Vader’s his father, Han gets frozen and taken away by Boba Fett. It ends on such a down note. I mean, that’s what life is, a series of down endings.

        His movies are a light form of fraud. He takes the studio’s money to go on vacation with his friends, and they phone in a few scenes a day and go to the beach

    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.

      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.

      In actuality - Adam Sandler needs $XX Million dollars because Netflix has poor taste in talent and would be willing to sacrifice at least 20 shows to be pulled from it’s cycle to make this work.

    If he takes on the Carl Weathers role and let’s Pete Davidson be the young golfer then it could be good?
