what a disappointment!

did they have to follow the tradition of so many other sequels and make this one so unwatchable??

i LOVED the first one. and while this one has it's few redeeming moments, i don't think it was even worth making.

and at first i liked how they called the straight actors out on not joining the sequel. i don't think they said no because of the subject matter, i think it had more to do with the fact that it was a badly scripted feature length infomercial for a variety of products for us gays.

what was the rush? take your time and write a better script, then you might be able to find legitimate investors, instead of relying on product placement.

and i wont even go into how terrible the whole Perez Hilton sub-plot was. ouch. my bf and i think he paid to be in this. Thats the only reason that Todd Stephens would agree to annoy us even more with his presence.

:P

your entitled to your opinion but this one is way better than the first,

I agree with the OP, it was rushed, forced, and wasn't very funny, unlike the original movie, which was a riot.

Really a bad movie. I truly hated it, especially because the first one was pretty good and had some very funny parts. This was just a big letdown!

The movie was terrible. I actually thought the line at the beginning (about the original actors not returning because they didn't want to do 2 gay movies in a row for fear people would think they were really gay) off-putting. It wasn't funny and certainly not necessary, other than for the director/producer to jab at the original for not returning, but really, why should they have returned? This movie was crap. Other than for the ugly guy who plays Nico, who's prolly hard up for roles, the original guys all have promising careers, why would they return and demean themselves by appearing in this garbage.

The movie was exactly what I expected, only worse. I understand its a comedy (or tried to be) and my expectations weren't that high, but it really gives a bad name to gay cinema. I'm not an elitist, but this gross-out movie was really nothing more than a psedudo-porn. But I actually prefer the real thing. I thought Brent Corrigan and Michael Lucas were cute, but would prefer to see them in the real thing.

The only redeeming thing I can say about the sequel is that they didn't use the Muffler character, other than for a brief cameo at the beginning. I couldn't stand that character so I'm glad they didn't have her featured prominently through out the second. (But instead they "treated" us to the dreadful acting of Mario Lavendiera (a.k.a. Perez Hilton)

Yeah, this is terrible. I really liked the first one a lot. This is bad and I am regretting spending $20 on this.

I have to disagree with Radrobd - At least the line at the beginning (about the original actors not returning because they didn't want to do 2 gay movies in a row for fear people would think they were really gay)acknowledged that they had changed the actors, rather than say nothing and just pretend that it never happened.

But I agree with everyone else, this film was not as good as the first. This film just seemed to me to be a case of "let's see how many naked men we can get on screen in 90 minutes or so" and also the Perez Hilton sub plot was very annoying.

I'll trade with anyone who has a jaccuzzi!!!!

Like the first movie,if they hadn't put in all the gross out scenes(the vomiting scene was truly unneeded,neither were Amanda LePore's "breasts")and its overreliance on "guest star" cameos,as well as a tighter(no pun intended)story,this might have been a better movie instead the disappontging,muddled mess that it is.

Performances from ok(i kinda liked the guys who played Andy & Jarod and Jonah Blechman(?) is a stiTch,as always)to the "WTF?".(Perez Hilton,anyone..HELLO!)

Again,not a terrible movie but not a winner either.

Ralph-"Yes?"

I thought it was truly terrible. Couldn't make it through the whole thing, actually, it was so very, VERY bad! Poor writing, unfunny jokes, lots of really tasteless scenes strung together, and just some of the worst acting...I agree that I wish it had been a straight out porno rather than this hot mess.
