| rdfs:comment | - Inspector Gadget 2, or sometimes called IG2, is a 2003 direct-to-DVD live-action comedy film. It was based on the cartoon series created by DIC Entertainment and is a sequel to the 1999 film Inspector Gadget, also released by DIC Entertainment. The film was released on March 11, 2003 and was also filmed in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.
- (The Disneycember logo is shown, before showing clips from Inspector Gadget 2) Doug (vo): Well, I've already reviewed a ton of direct-to-DVD sequels. Why not review this one? Inspector Gadget 2. Yeah, kind of an Inspector Gadget-filled month, isn't it? (The poster for Inspector Gadget Saves Christmas, which Doug had only just reviewed as the Nostalgia Critic, is shown briefly) This is a follow-up to the first film starring Matthew Broderick, and though it's not nearly as bad...hell, you just subtract Matthew Broderick from it, it's immediately better...it's still...pretty bad. This time, Inspector Gadget is played by French Stewart of 3rd Rock From the Sun fame. At first, you think it's gonna be exactly like the first one, with its awkward style and weird in-your-face effects that...really
- The second film departs slightly from the first one. Inspector Gadget and Dr. Claw are never referred to as John Brown and Sanford Scolex – their respective civilian names from the first movie, though Claw's communicator clearly is labeled "Scolex Industries", indicating that his name is still Sanford Scolex. In addition to this, D. L. Hughley, who reprises his role (voice) of the Gadgetmobile, is the only actor from the 1999 film to do so. Also, Gadget's love interest from the first movie, Dr. Brenda Bradford, is gone and is replaced by G2.

The second film departs slightly from the first one. Inspector Gadget and Dr. Claw are never referenced as John Brown and Sandford Scolex – their respective civilian names from the first movie, though Claw's communicator clearly is labeled "Scolex Industries", indicating that his name is still Sanford Scolex. In addition to this, none of the 1999 film's actors return to reprise their roles (with the exception of D. L. Hughley, who voices the Gadgetmobile). Also, Gadget's love interest from the first movie does not appear and is replaced by G2. Gadget is more foolishly inept and unable to control his now glitch-ridden gadgets. As an homage to the original cartoon, Claw's face is never seen and speaks with a deep, gruff voice. In the previous film, Claw's face was visible and was an upper-class business man. He appears to be older in age than he was in the original, although the story only takes place a year later. The film was released on March 11, 2003 and was also filmed in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.
