Welcome to Lights, Camera, Remake, where we ask the question “has Hollywood run out of ideas?”
The 90s called, they want their sequels back.
It’s time to rehash some funny movies y’all! Happy Gilmore 2 came out on Netflix 29 movies after the original film, and its time to relive some good times.
We talked too long so now this golf-movie duo is going to be a two-parter.
Happy Gilmore (1996):
After his grandmother's house is repossessed by the IRS, a bad tempered hockey player takes his talents to golf to earn the big bucks and get his grandmother's house back.

On each episode we’ll look at a movie and its remake, or sometimes a movie and its sequel, to determine if Hollywood rehashed it for a reason or for a cash grab.
