Would Anyone Else Like A Hal Spin-off Movie?

I recently read an article on Hal and the nursing home abuse he committed (http://www.tramontanalaw.com/4-instances-nursing-home-abuse-happy-gilmore/) and while I was watching the clips of him I remembered just how funny Ben Stiller's character was. I'd actually argue that he was probably the funniest character in the movie. I think he should definitely have his own nursing home spin-off movie. Anybody agree?

God, no. Much as I do like Ben Stiller, elder abuse is not a funny thing. Because it happens, a lot. It would only work if he gets pretty much killed for it.

It would be hard to do because of elder abuse, but it they could find a way, it would be funny.
