Let's taint the feelings you have about the first one by creating an unnecessary sequel. I'm not even an Adam Sandler or Happy Gilmore fan, but I can just imagine how disappointed actual fans are to hear this news.
“Unnecessary” is the weirdest complaint about sequels. All movies are unnecessary, people just make them because they want to.
In this case, people just make them because they want to...make money
I probably shouldn't judge it as unnecessary before I see it, however, Hollywood and Adam Sandler especially like to make cash grab sequels, and I feel cash grab sequels are unnecessary. Making a sequel because you have additional story you want to tell is totally ok, but making a movie solely to cash in on a previous story is not.
