  THE CANNONBALL RUN (1981) Movie Poster
The real Cannonball Run (The Cannonball Baker Sea-to-Shining-Sea Run) was a 1970's race actually run on public highways between the Red Ball Garage in New York City and the Portofino Inn in Redondo Beach, California.
The only character we seem to be lacking in Cannonball Run II in order to cause a spontaneous celluloid meltdown is Eric Von Zipper, although now that I think about it, Burt & Crew get so sidetracked with schlock that they have to finish 90% of the race with animation.
Cannonball Run II is so baaaad it's worth a look just for the exercise your neck will get from shaking your head from side-to-side.

 Cannonball Run II - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cannonball Run II is a film that was released in 1984.
Having lost the first Cannonball Run race, the Sheik (Jamie Farr) convinces his father (Ricardo Montalban) to bankroll $1 million for another race, one that he will surely win.
This also comes to the attention of Don Don Canneloni (Charles Nelson Reilly), who runs a bordello in the middle of the desert, and who has lost millions of dollars of the money of his father, Don Canneloni (also played by Dom DeLuise in a direct parody of The Godfather).

 Cannonball Run 2 review (1984) - Qwipster's Movie Reviews
Granted, the original Cannonball Run isn't exactly a critical masterpiece, but for what it is, it does work well.
Normally, sequels take what was successful from the first film and give you much more, but Cannonball Run II mystifyingly strips away all of the good stuff, then injects some of the dumbest, most unfunny, and completely unnecessary side plots to fill up most of the running time.
The first problem with Cannonball Run II lies in the fact that Brock Yates, writer of the first film and one of the creators of the actual race, is out as screenwriter.

 At-A-Glance Film Reviews: Cannonball Run II (1984)
Cannonball Run II is just plain bad, period.
The humor is in much the same spirit as the first film -- it's a retread in every negative connotation of the term -- but rather than being the kind of cheesy fun the actors and the audience can have together, it's a forced exercise in which nobody has any fun at all.
The star power in Cannonball Run II boggles the mind.

Clerks II (2006) Dante and Randal return in Kevin Smith's raunchy follow-up to his indie classic.
This time, the guys engage in such vomit-inducing, injury-defying, fate-tempting stunts as running with (OK, away from) angry bulls, putting leeches on their eyeballs, skiing down staircases, using themselves as human chum in shark-infested waters, and much more.
This film features the same humor found in "Cannonball Run" and "Smokey and the Bandit;" however, Burt Reynolds fans will probably enjoy it.
