I was okay with it in the first movie because Dale's reactions were totally believable. Even if it was funny to some extent, his horror at being raped kept it a black comedy sort of funny. It sounds like the second movie took away from that, though?

This might be suited to its own thread, but I'm okay with rape jokes as part of a generally fucked-up comedy. For instance, Blame It On the Bellboy gets away with humor in the onscreen rape of a likeable female character, because it's a movie where a lot of the humor is really dark and uncomfortable. (And because she ruins the rapist's life afterwards, but that's neither here nor there.)

I definitely enjoyed the first movie because of Dale's reactions and how it seemed to be portrayed, to me, as very uncomfortable and upsetting, and Dale showed constant frustration with his idiot friends when they kept making fun of him for it. But then the second... yeah. At least they kept Dale's reactions consistent.

I think it's because of how the film overall portrays it. In the first one it was seen as rape and his friends were dicks for not seeing it. But in the second on it was like it wasn't rape and he was overreacting. To the same clearly thing that was clearly rape.
