5 Movies-Within-Movies We NEED To See (And 5 That Would Suck)
6. Good Will Hunting 2: Hunting Season from Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back Would Probably Suck
This buddy comedy film, starring Jason Mewes and Kevin Smith in the title roles, features a behind-the-scenes look at the fictional sequel to Good Will Hunting, the hit drama starring Ben Affleck and Matt Damon.
One of the most hilarious scenes in the entire movie, this segment manages to poke fun at the original Good Will Hunting, while simultaneously making clear how truly terrible it would be to make a sequel to the critically-acclaimed drama.
Primarily parodying the well-known "How you like them apples?" scene, this fake sequel sees Damon and Affleck's characters turn to violence when once again confronted by their pretentious peers, ostensibly killing a classmate with a shotgun.
Poking fun at shameless cash-grab sequels, this scene demonstrates that a real-life Good Will Hunting sequel would likely be a lackluster attempt to recapture the heart and smarts of the original.
A totally hilarious, self-reflexive dig at the film industry, we can re-watch this segment endlessly - Good Will Hunting 2: Hunting Season, on the other hand, would not be on our watchlist.
