 Topic: Round Up the Usual Suspects...Posted: September 25 2010 at 2:36pm |
I know you guys don't like when I mention awards like the Kids's Choice Awards because they lack credibility.But I should point out Adam Sandler has won "Favorite Actor" and "Favorite Movie" in the past,even if they were PG-13.Kids like him.

No, I'm not defending Grown-Ups. Perhaps I should've put it into context for you more clearly; See, here's the problem: Little Nicky, I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry, and You Don't Mess With the Zohan were all on my Worst-of lists for their respective years. It turns out I'm the ONE person in my high school or college who doesn't like those three movies. Everyone just keeps praising it whenever I show them my Worst-of lists. It turns out that they'll just eat up anything if it stars Adam Sandler. Then comes Grown-Ups, which I MUST expect will get nominated for Worst Picture. It was bad enough my colleagues raved about Zohan, Chuck & Larry, and Nicky, but if they show the same love for Grown-Ups, I'm going to question their integrity. I cannot just stand by and let them eat this one up; I must think of a way to treat the problem! And I believe moviewizguy thought the family gathering related plot was the only good thing about this film. |

This movie was stupid...but that was to be expected. The movie had a good idea with the whole family get together thing.

Little Nicky, Chuck & Larry, and You Don't Mess With the Zohan were one thing, but please, not Grown-Ups! Happy Gilmore may not have been a bad movie, but now too many of those who liked it think Sandler's infallible.

Super! I can suggest it to everyone who like comedies ;) |

AH CRAP! You had to go and drop Pauley Shore's name didn't you? Now Sandler is going to be seeking him out to star in the next Happy Madison Production!

Yeah, that's probably why Sandler's company is called "Happy Madison". There are many days when I wish he did start his career with "Big Daddy" and "Little Nicky", then his career might have gone the way of Pauly Shore's ... considering they are of equal talent: none!

Now that you mention it, I think I'd rather Sandler continued making movies than Kristen Stewart. Most people believe she doesn't like doing "acting." At least Sandler has fun doing it!

Fair enough. But given that he owns the studio, and he almost exclusively works with his friends in his comedies, he is just having fun. That doesn't pardon him for making bad movies, but it isn't as bad as giving up integrity for a paycheck.
I'll admit that Bedtime Stories was a shameless cash grab though.

Ya know what? Sandler's most memorable movies are Billy Madison, and Happy Gilmore. Trying to act? No. He reinvented stupid comedy. Then he started trying to get serious about everything. And it all went downhill. Even as his movies have made more (and then less) money, nothing has ever had the impact of those first couple of movies. Those are the movies that a generation can go back and quote for the rest of their lives.
Now, they weren't "good" movies... plenty of plot, character, etc. to infinity complaints... but those movies are why we know who Adam Sandler is. If he'd started with... Big Daddy and Little Nicky and all of that crap, he'd have never broken out. |

Yeah -- since he has complete control over his own movies, Sandler can play it safe all he wants, so why should he bother trying?
