This movie was the shit, all those years ago. Bad Santa that is. But the problem there is the description, all those years ago. Maybe it’s a movie that didn’t deserve a sequel, or maybe one would’ve sullied the original. I’d still like to see more of Billy Bob Thornton’s Bad Santa though, with his little Elf helper, and maybe the fat kid too.
Meanwhile, writer/director Doug Ellin says that not only is a sequel happening but it’s set to film this September or October, but that the screenplay is also being written still. I hope that means they’re just polishing the thing.
A while back when this was announced, Billy Bob Thornton came right out and said that Bad Santa 2 will not be as good as the original (slap on back for honesty), but that he and the team were going to make the movie anyway, and try to make it the funniest sequel possible. Ellin also says that this new movie will be rated R. Well, yeah. Because Ellin, if you were to make a PG-13 Bad Santa movie, someone would literally have to be killed. That would be you, Ellin.
Anyway, don’t expect anymore updates from me today because I’m on my FUCKIN’ LUNCHBREAK okay?!
