recently watched happy gilmore 2 thinking it was going to be a final sandler cashgrab before he retires with his truckloads of dollars. i wasn't wrong about that part per se, the first third of the film was a happy gilmore nostalgia tour, but then they just start throwing a bunch of stupid shit in there. the gist is adam sandler is a washed up alcoholic ex golfer (his abject state of poverty is represented by having to live in boston, a city with a kind of spiritual poverty), who has to start playing again because he's all out of money. but when he starts playing golf his job security is threatened by a new sport GOLF 2 that appeals to zoomers or something i don't know it was pretty incoherent. the main plot point is that happy has to play golf 2, an incredibly violent bloodsport, and be the best at it even though he is a TRADITIONAL golfer (which makes no sense re: happy gilmore 1). it was sorta messed up for a family movie but the souless sandler will do anything for a quick buck
