I'm turning a blind eye to any continuity. It wouldn't be right if they weren't in it. I hope they can explain how the barbershop oldies are still alive?

I'll be watching it, but like any classic 80's/90's film they are of their time.
As brilliant as C2A was, that type of humour doesn't necessarily travel the decades well to todays type of humour. I think for a classic film to always be loved, you have to have first watched it originally when it was first released. That way the film stays with you all your life. Someone watching C2A today for the very fist time might not find it quite so good as if they watched it originally.
On the whole I like those kind of films, som Im expecting to like C2A2 as well, but only because I watched those kind of films originally.

I disagree. I rewatched C2A this week. Loved it...
But that's precisely my point, you sound like you may have seen it years ago and have recently rewatched it. I'm talking about todays youngsters watching these films now for the first time.I was generalising over that era of film. My point being that to always love a film you sometimes have to have seen it when to was originally released.As an example, I love Gremlins, having watched it when it was released, but I don't think I would love it now if seeing it for the first time. The acting and style of film making in a lot of the 80's films leaves a lot to be desired compared to todays style.
Jaws may be one of the exceptions, but then I wouldn't know as I saw it back in its day so it will always be one of my favourite films. But with its obvious (by todays standards) rubber shark, would my 14yr old son love it just as much if he saw it today? I'd like to think so, but who knows.
