Adam Sandler appears to have re-upped his lucrative Netflix multi-picture deal and it's a good thing because without it, would we even have the Netflix original: Spaceman (2024)? In this dramatic sci-fi turn for the Sandman, Paul Dano voices an unfortunately unf***able spider and Sandler himself stretches his legs by randomly hinting at a Czech accent. It's worth noting that Carey Mulligan is in this movie and it's also worth noting that 8 potential good movies could have been made from the bones of this single (SPOILER ALERT) bad one. You'd better believe Tim and Guy list each and every possibility. Come blast off with us in, Spaceman.
Production note: This one was also supposed to come out ages again, soz about it!
As we all count down the hotly anticipated release of Grown Ups 3 in H1 ‘27, today we explore the sequel to the adored 1996 comedy classic Happy Gilmore, Happy Gilmore 2, directed by Kyle Newacheck (Workaholics). This cinematic project could be considered the artful packaging of a financial transaction between 200 brands and personalities. It could be considered a rather cynical and lazy successor to a film that was responsible for making Adam Sandler a breakout hit, and household name. It could also be held up as a rare example of Rob Schneider being seen amongst normal entertainers in 2026. What is could not be identified as, however, is a good movie. Hosted on Acast.

How much do you want to know about Happy Gilmore (1996)? Because Timbo and Guyguy have just re-watched it and it turns out: This is in the pantheon of Guy’s favourite ever movies, and Tim know how to use Google. Peak behind an all-timer comedy movie, which came out during an insane run of big studio comedies (right in the middle of Jim Carrey’s golden era) that will likely never be repeated. The movie is essentially perfect so let’s glaze the heck out of it before we see the sequel and more importantly, as we brace for Grown Ups 3 impact.
The boiz are at the beach because it may be NZ Winter, but it’s also NZ sunny today. And to prove we’re in New Zealand, we randomly ran into our friend, Brady - a delightful man who looks strikingly like modern depictions of Jesus carrying a TV. Why? You’ll just have to listen to find out.
