I got your vibe
Tbh, I was a bit disappointed before this list. Glad you get it.
Here's a few more:
Silver Sandbars
Corndog: Part IV
Mordecai's Surfin' Hawaiian Adventure
The Lower Lumbar
Star-Crunch
Nocturnal Nemesis
How To Get To The Hardware Store
Sequel Pitch: How NOT to Get to the Hardware Store
I'm seeing dollar signs.
Mordecai's Surfin' Hawaiian Adventure had me laughing for a solid 15 seconds and is still giving me a chuckle
I'm thinking it would be part of a franchise. It goes like this:
Mordecai's Adventure (moderate hit)
Mordecai Returns (critically panned but does well on video)
Mordecai Strikes Again (mostly a flop)
Mordecai Goes To The Beach (attempt at reviving the series by taking a big swerve, nobody has faith in the project, does shockingly well)
Mordecai's Christmas (straight to video, does okay in rentals, fans think it's an underrated gem)
Mordecai's School Daze (not great, maybe bring him to the beach again?)
Mordecai Goes To The Beach Again (does very well, people just cannot get enough of him at the beach)
Mordecai's Jailhouse Rock (pretty good)
Mordecai's Surfin Hawaiian Adventure (an attempt to keep the magic of Mordecai going to the beach without it feeling like a reused concept)
That made me choke on food laughing
I have a few more:
Mordecai's Madness (original actor quits, producers decide to go with a dark and gritty tone to differentiate from earlier films, new actor is a guy with 1/10'th the charisma, bombs horribly, series is finished for years)
Mordecai (2010s attempt at a franchise revival, trendy actor in the lead role, updates the style and tone of the first few movies for the young millennial audience while still trying to be faithful to the core concept, single scene of Mordecai at the beach as a wink to the audience, original actor appears in a cameo role that everyone loves, mostly well-received and makes money, hardcore fans divided)
Mordecai: New Dawn (Sequel to the revival, makes money back but somewhat underperforms expectations, script went through too many revisions with takes from different screenwriters, leaving the story feeling a bit confused and bloated, probably a half hour too long)
Mordecai's Adventures (Hulu original series, whole new cast, beloved side character Sparks re-imagined as a woman, seriously dividing the fanbase with some saying the show is ruined by wokeness while others say the Mordecai movies were always woke, series lasts for three seasons before being abruptly cancelled and buried by the algorithm)
Third Mordecai reboot movie? (occasional articles about people trying to get it made but it never seems to materialize)
Aww, the Mordecai series really fell off. Whe will they make another like Mordecai at the Beach?
The Hulu series had beach episodes that are generally received very well. But the future of the franchise is in doubt.
Not to mention the toxic Fandom
They're so stupid. The Mordecai movies were always progressive. Mordecai Goes To The Beach was really ahead of its time on its portrayal of gay characters.
