    That's what they've tried! Folks may know already about South America's inbred cocaine hippo problem, which - I'm sorry, I loved the movie Cocaine Bear, but Cocaine Hippo is the sequel we're all waiting for.

    The fact that Cocaine Bear didn’t get nominated shows the Academy missed the entire point of the movie (there was a bear and it got high on cocaine)

    It's a shame that the movie Cocaine Bear didn't spawn sequels. Imagine... Cocaine whale: the vengeance. A whale accidentally swallowed a shipment and then goes on a drug fueled rampage targeting billionaires boats.

    Predator and Predator 2 are both a different movie (army men and a super-cop) interrupted by the Predator. Also, if the different movie was by the Coen Brothers and you swap the Predator for a bear, that's Cocaine Bear.
