This new cast looks lame.


Not much motivation to see this theaters.

The cast certainly could be better.

I'm ok with Christina Hendricks. Shes hot and a good actress.

Kind of hard to replace Bernie Mac and John Ritter - those guys were legends.

But having Kathy Bates as Willie's mom I think could definitely pay off in the end.

I hope they're using some major old-age makeup on Kathy Bates... she's only 8 years older than Billy Bob Thornton.

lol wow yeah thats messed up..

Christina Hendricks and Kathy Bates are great casting additions. I hope the movie is as vulgar and has enough obscenity as the first one.

its the same cast as before



Look like Tarzan talk like Jane! HAHA

Had same reaction after trailer. Loved the original on cable with friends not in theater. So that helped a lot to amplify an already cult in the making fun trip.
This time just going over similar ground just seems like a phone in for coin. Without seeing whole thing there doesn't seem to be the same bite. Formula bound.

Not easy in comedy to make a 2 and or 3. Many just don't need or deserve it.
Ghostbusters managed it well enough. But why if going to do something like a Joe Dirt
sequel it damn well better be fresh all over. Dragging out same old in any small winner like a Big Lebowski would be mad tricky so why bother. Oh right, banko calling....

Good timing going for BS2 to grab the anti-holiday party makers.
Get loaded after bloat fest and gang out for this try.
