Christmas Day. While drinks and merriment were being shared with family and the Kansas City Chiefs were breaking my heart both as a Bills fan and as someone playing against Mahomes and Kelce in the fantasy football championship, Netflix delivered on to us a preview of the most anticipated movie of 2025.

Happy Gilmore 2.

We’ve been saying this a lot since election day. But, dude: We. Are. So. Back.

It’s just a teaser and not the full trailer. Which is better than the new Superman movie that did a teaser of the teaser before dropping the teaser. Then, there are a bunch of YouTube videos reviewing the teaser trailers that are ten times longer than the teaser. Really, who cares? It’s Adam Sandler back in one of his most iconic roles. Plus, we got Shooter McGavin. Plus, we got our first look at professional wrestling icon MJF, who is better than you, and you know it.

You keep hearing that studios no longer want to make comedies. Theo Von and Adam Devine recently discussed how when Devine pitches a comedy, the first question is, “Why do we need to make this movie?”

“Because it’s funny” isn’t a good enough answer. And the few comedies that do get made?

“You get to the end of what you think was a comedy and you’re like, ‘Was this about global warming? Was there some deep hidden message I should recycle more?”

“Wait, so the moon is trans?”

So the Sandman is doing it himself.

It is next to impossible not to love Sandler movies. Critics will try, but that is why Rotten Tomatoes has an audience score. I’ve always appreciated that he is who he is and his movies are what they are. Nothing but dumb laughs. He’s spent his career picking an exotic place to vacation and writing a movie around it as an excuse to bring his friends and family. And when all else fails, he does a Grown Ups movie just so he can hang out with Rock, Schneider, and Spade. We’re also due for his every-decade movie with Drew Barrymore.

And I’m happy to report that it’s not just a generational thing. My twelve-year-old niece and her friends all love Happy Gilmore. As a side note, The Sandlot, too.

As long as we have Adam Sandler, we’ll have silly jokes with a killer soundtrack, an excessive amount of cameos, and a movie wife who is way too hot for him. Everything you can ask for in a comedy!
