20 Huge Movie Characters Who Barely Spoke To Each Other

20. Happy & Virginia - Happy Gilmore 2

When a character returns after so many years, and in Happy Gilmore's case decades, there is always going to be some intrigue as to how far they have come in that time and what they are doing in the present. Happy Gilmore 2 went out of its way to put Adam Sandler's titular character as close to where he was at the very beginning as quickly as possible.

Though Happy Gilmore 2 reveals that he now has five children, he was also forced to learn the game of golf from scratch again, with barely a penny to his name, and without Virginia by his side.

Julie Bowen returned for the legacy sequel, but was shockingly killed off after just three minutes and just one conversation, sending her husband to absolute rock bottom. They discussed retirement, with Virginia echoing once again the sentiment that Happy wasn't done with golf, and moments later, she was killed by one of his tee-off shots.

The dynamic between Happy and Virginia was one of the best things about the original Happy Gilmore, so to see the sequel actively throw it away so quickly was genuinely surprising. She may have posthumously spoken to her husband from his happy place, but even counting this, the two could have and should have had so much more time together.
