My father looked exactly, and I mean exactly, like Walter Matthau, with the same dialect from New Jersey, and the same mannerisms and behavioral traits. I feel so fortunate to have these movies available to watch anytime. It’s like I can visit with him whenever I want.

"I think it's how she would've wanted to go." This movie puts me in stitches every damn time.

[@edkeaton1085]

I loved how in this sequel, the focus seems to be more centered on "Max Goldman", and his chance of meeting up with someone who will love him for who he is and make him feel special. No one could ever play this part better than the great Walter Matthau.

[@rachelwood9438]

He reminds me of my dad 💔

[@jonpowell4246]

Amen👍

[@Bull1908]

that was the idea: 1st film was about John Gustafson (Jack Lemmon), while the 2nd one was about Max (Walter Matthau). I just wished they made a 3rd one to complete the trilogy!

[@markshippoli8918]

Without saying so, Max is trying to tell his son that he wants a woman who will love him in the way Jacobs mother did. This movie has so many truly human moments. Besides the fact that it's f-ing hilarious!

[@BilltheButcher1855]

He needed the distraction of his TV program and those damn mosquitoes craving his Mac and cheese 🍜 🧀 🦟🦟 🦟

[@jonpowell4246]

In a way Max was also saying that women don't love men for who they are instead of what they have anymore so there's no point in trying to put yourself out there if all your gonna get is hurt. That's how it is in the world we live in today. But you're right, this movie is f**king hilarious. 😆😆😆

[@MonsterHunter267]

Damn, I never realized this. I just thought it was Max being stubborn and sentimental.

[@billyrichey1706]

Exactly you hit the nail on the head a wonderful classic movie.

I’m 52 and was widowed at 47 when my wife of 17 years passed away. It was over a year before I could take my wedding band off. Although people try to understand, there’s simply no way of doing that if they’ve never buried a spouse.

[@paulrosenberg707]

My Grandpa passed away last April and I can’t tell you how much this scene reminds me of him. He was such a kind hearted guy, but he didn’t like people always worrying about him.

The great thing about these movies is that as much as John and Max bicker, deep down they’re the best of friends.

[@mcgannahanskyjellyfetti6854]

True. A Fine example was when the IRS agent was looking for John and Max did NOT rat him out...

I love the Grumpy Old Men movies. The 2 Grumpy Old Men movies have a certain, lovely, warm charm to them. For example, I love how the scenery of the state of Minnesota is practically a co-star. In Grumpy Old Men we get to see how nice Minnesota looks with all that snow and ice. And in Grumpier Old Men we get to see what it looks like underneath all that snow and ice. Just beautiful. The small hometown feel also really adds to the charm. Makes one want to move there to live and hopefully have Max, John, Pop, and Ariel (and all the others) as neighbors.

[@johnrobinson1762]

We all get old, and looks fade. Glad to see he retained his amazing wit.

[@walterheisenberg251]

Love the way he subtly lets his son know he’s fine. It comes across as a snarky-but in reality, that’s just how his das would normally answer a question like that.

[@cartersmom0629]

I was watching another movie, completely unrelated to this one, and someone in that movie said rhubarb pie and immediately thought of this scene. I watched this movie as a kid, but i wasn't paying attention because it was a movie my mom watched, but i remembered this scene only. I don't know why. What she did for him baking that pie was love

[@VMIFerrari]

I've always liked this scene. Old Max Goldman's wife definitely loved him (the rhubarb pie proved what she was willing to go through just to see him happy, even though she was under no obligation to do anything of the sort). That's going above & beyond. That's love.

[@rickymay4096]

Mirrors what John said in the first film to Max; if he ended up with May, he never would have had Amy, who was a good woman, thus having no good memories like this. John basically saved Max from having a long, loveless marriage like he did (before Ariel). Come Fly The Teeth Of The Wind. Share My Wings.

[@Celcil49286]

I love that part too more so how can you set me up with someone else...you have any idea what your mom was like? Just let me be please child and I know you mean well...

[@dre249]

Yea bro if you know you know.

[@canderoussnurd4265]

One of my favorite scenes in the movie and perfectly sums up what love is and why it’s so hard to move on from it. My wife is very similar. She sacrifices so much for me. Honest to god if she died before me I’d never be able to move on. I could see myself having this same conversation with my son if he tried to tell me I should date again. The subtext of the conversation being “You honestly think the reason I don’t look is because I’m waiting for another one to come into my life. I had love.” Granted he did try to go for Ariel previously but he came to terms with it just not being love but the sentiment is more or less the same. I already had someone I loved and I don’t really care if I find another.

My grandmother is currently in the hospital, I lost my grandfather in the early 2000s. My fiance and I watched grumpy old men yesterday and plan to watch the sequel tonight because it reminds me of my grandpa and I think my grandma is going home to him soon. Walter Matthau is hilarious to this day. Thanks for popping up on my KZbin feed this morning and giving me a happy tear.

[@dougcapehart]

He thought of the rhubarb pie because he knows that at his age, the odds of finding another woman that'll love him like that are slim to none. To be open to dating is to have hope, and to hold onto hope is to suffer. So we eat our macaroni and cheese, and watch our programs.
