Brick Joke: Dana said hearing the bad reviews for his production of Erin Brockovich was like getting "raped in the face".Boredom Montage: This gets coupled with the Hard-Work Montage when Dana tries to write the play.Anachronism Stew: Dana does this on purpose with "Hamlet 2".Ambiguously Gay: Rand, until his sexuality is revealed and he is Camp Gay.Ambiguously Bi: The character of Laertes in the play was called "bi-curious" in the script (although Dana really meant gay), and as a result Dana cast Rand as that role due to Rand fitting that rule.Adult Fear: Your wife leaving you for your roommate because you're sterile and your job is taking you nowhere.Adam Westing: Elisabeth Shue quits show business to become a nurse.Almost every student in the play does it. Hamlet 2 contains examples of the following tropes: When the school's administration realizes Marschz plans to put on the controversial play at the school, they order him to stop production. He writes a "sequel" to the play Hamlet in the depths of his desperation the "sequel" mixes time travel, Jesus Christ (played by Marschz himself), and the showstopping musical number "Rock Me Sexy Jesus" into the family drama of The Bard's famous play. Marschz - now despondent over both the impending loss of his career and numerous other personal issues - decides to go all out for his last big production in an attempt to save the program. At the start of the most recent semester, Dana learns two sobering facts: the school has cut its budget to the point where his drama program remains the only arts class left in the curriculum, and his class will end up cut at the end of the semester. The 2008 comedy film Hamlet 2 stars Steve Coogan as high school drama teacher Dana Marschz, a recovering alcoholic and failed actor who has earned a reputation for his poor adaptations of famous films (rather than his ability to teach anyone anything).
