I mean, for starters, would he still have been a wedding singer in modern times? We could expect another hit breakout and use a lot more romcoms back on the big screens (or at least in streaming).

We couldn't care less if it were to hunt nostalgia vibes, The Wedding Singer 2 needs Robbie and Julia back, navigating their marriage and potentially, kids, even if it's just going to be another excuse to see Drew and Adam back together with their undeniable chemistry.

Where Big Daddy 2 Meets Bigger Julian

Who wouldn't want to see Adam and Cole Sprouse and relive Big Daddy? In this sequel, Sonny Koufax is convinced he's over fatherhood. That is, until his boy, Julian, has to deal with it in his own family.

Sonny wouldn't be done having his share of raising a kid, and he's certainly not finished unveiling his fatherly ways to Julian's flesh and blood.

Every Sandler fan knows he's got the magic in mixing sports and comedy to churn in numbers and an unforgettable story.

Hustle felt like a true story, and a sequel wouldn't hurt, featuring more real-life NBA players as Stanley Beren trains them with his take on the playbook.

Waterboy 2 Would've Been Another Happy Gilmore Sequel

Just like Happy Gilmore did, feed fans with another nostalgia hit like Waterboy 2.

There are two things Waterboy 2 could do with a college football plot in mind: let Adam reprise his role as a football legend coach in college, or recast his role by spotlighting a college freshman whom Bobby ends up seeing himself in.

Imagine the lengths Bobby would go through to train and grow his legacy through this college hotshot, no matter how old-school his classic moves get.

Where Little Nicky's Troubles Have Just Begun

Little Nicky may have stopped his brothers, Adrian and Cassius, from taking over Hell and Earth, but would he be able to stop his son?

Assuming he and Valerie do stay on earth and grow their family, who's to say their offspring wouldn't cause the same trouble that runs in the father's blood?
