The Price is Right host Bob Barker and Sandler’s goon-turned-golfer Happy Gilmore midway through the film. Almost 20 years later, a promotional video for the upcoming Night of Too Many Stars live television event has the pair reuniting for another few rounds — of fighting, not golfing.

The 91-year-old television host appears with Sandler in a hospital room, and the two trade insults for a while before eventually trading punches (and worse) in a rapidly escalating, slapstick fight that involves Sandler punching Barker in the crotch at one point, and Barker dumping a full bedpan over Sandler’s head.

Oh, and the Ebola virus makes an appearance in the video, too.

The upcoming Night of Too Many Stars is a live, televised charity event hosted by Jon Stewart that benefits various autism programs for children and adults alike, and the training of teachers, parents, and co-workers of people with autism. Along with Barker and Sandler, the telethon will feature Bill Burr, Guy Bennett, Jon Bon Jovi, Eddie Brill, Steve Buscemi, Louis C.K., Steve Carell, Vincent D’Onofrio, Will Forte, Jim Gaffigan, Joel Godard, Gilbert Gottfried, Bill Nye, John Oliver, Ray Chew Live, Chris Rock, Al Roker, Paul Rudd, Maya Rudolph, Amy Schumer, Sarah Silverman, and “Weird Al” Yankovic.

Night of Too Many Stars airs March 8 at 8pm ET.

Howard the Duck in "Howard the Duck."

The science-fiction genre has a vast smorgasbord of cheesy films stretching way back to the early days of cinema. Such pictures are known for their weird stories, unrealistic dialogue, low-budget productions, and exaggerated acting.

10 best Batman stories ever, ranked

Batman Year One cover

Bounding from rooftop to rooftop, the Dark Knight never misses his mark. He operates like a well-oiled machine tracking bad guys, beating them to a bloody pulp, and throwing them in the slammer - or Arkham Asylum should they be anyone of Gotham's notable supervillains. As the brainchild of Bob Kane and Bill Finger, an artist and writer duo, Batman has been pounding the pavement of Gotham ever since his debut in Detective Comics in 1939. He's undergone a number of changes since his original conception ultimately becoming the brooding powerhouse we know today.

Most understand the basic tenants of Batman these days. His parents were murdered before his young eyes leading him down this path of personal vindication and pursuit of justice. Batman, in most iterations, never resorts to killing -- the one crime that separates his outlaw vigilante operations from the real criminals. Of course, it wasn't always that way. In Batman's earliest days, he had no qualms about ending the lives of baddies on the streets. Even now, some stories and films like Tim Burton's gothic take on the character depict him looking on with cold and uncaring glares as criminals meet their end. Regardless, Batman is mostly a well-established hero simply seeking justice and there are countless stories of the Caped Crusader. Let's take a look at the best among them.
