Son of the Mask, (2005) set a decade after the events of The Mask. Son of the Mask goes more in-depth into the story behind the magical mask as a baby is born with the powers of the mask. Jamie Kennedy takes over starring role duties from Jim Carey and he cannot compare. Carey was nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Comedy in 1995 for his portrayal in The Mask.

Caddyshack 2, (1988) Warner Bros. needed a comedy for the summer of 1988 and paid an enormous amount to Rodney Dangerfield and Chevy Chase to get them to return for Caddyshack 2. Dangerfield convinced Caddyshack co-writer and director Harold Ramis to write the screenplay. Dangerfield hated the script he wrote. At the last minute, Dangerfield quit. Warners was still so desperate for a hit that they plunged ahead anyway, recruiting Jackie Mason to replace Dangerfield as the film's wealthy slob who sticks it to the uptight WASPs of the Bushwood Country Club. Mason was no Rodney Dangerfield, though, and his part became an endless string of tired one-liners, fart jokes, and wacky prop comedy. Did you ever see Caddyshack 2?
