His new movie looks really good..has Adam written all over it..as a huge Adam Sandler fan..I always wonder as I watch his movies..how many people get all of his true subtle messages once you get passed the jokes..a friend of mine who worked on Saturday Night Live says he's a great guy..

Hard to watch him
He reminds me so much of my late brother
even looks like him

He better be careful
when I look into his eyes I see the same thing
Maybe its my imagination
but I hope he stays away from the soul stealing promise you everything & then take it kind of lifestyle

:cry:

From people I know who have been around him..they say he always seems like a real deal true down to earth good heart/soul guy..that also takes me back to all of his subtle true real what he tries to show in his movies..if you pick up on those things..that appears to be who he really is..

Yeah..what a different one Reign Over Me was for him..I really like Cheadle a lot too..
A guy I work with..his daughter wrote a movie with Adam..said he was funny as hell..but a great guy too..

Again..I really like how he shows the good in people and what really matters in between all the humor in a way that it's not in your face..plus..especially since 9-11..he has really been trying to do a lot of stuff involving New York..he is from Brooklyn..loved his small role on the Cosby Show..a guy I worked with in New York..his girlfriend did makeup on the Cosby Show and said that show was a riot..one of my fav tv comedy's..

Billy Madison..one of my favs of all time..

At least he doesn't sound like the Water Boy in his new movie...and why does he sound like the Water Boy in real life at interviews?

I've seen this sometimes..but not all the time..he actually is shy and it's sort of a defense mechanism that he does..and doesn't even realize it all the time..

I enjoy Adam Sandlers movies but I am not a fan of his studio cd's.
Only a handful of folks can swear like a sailor in their shtick, he is not one of em.

Click was great. I love Little Nicky. You have to have one or two guilty pleasure movies.

With most of his movies..I either really like them..or don't at all..except for Click..ended up in between on that one. After his father's passing..he really wanted to do something like this and Henry Winkler was so honored that he asked him to play his father.
Speaking of which..he is also obviously very loyal to people appearing over and over and over..and over..lol..in his movies..

I was never really into his cd..or most of his live stuff..wasn't really my thing..

SNL-Lunch lady with Farley..one of the funniest skits ever..

Movies I really like-
Billy Madison
Big Daddy
The Wedding Singer
50 First Dates
I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry
Anger Management
Happy Gilmore


In between-
Reign Over Me
Click
The Longest Yard
Water Boy
Mr Deeds



Not really-
Spanglish
Punch Drunk Love



Nope-
Little Nicky


Just listed the one's I have seen.

His new movie and Mike Myers new movie look like huge pieces of $hit.
Adam Sandler used to be funny. I can't stand him anymore.

Myers- get rid of the midget. Not funny.

Just the scene in his new movie commercial where he grabs the guy's pinky and kicks him across the face had me rolling on the floor. I was very wary when I first heard about it but I have to admit the commercial keeps getting me.

I think PUNCH DRUNK LOVE is his finest hour. EXCELLENT film, but hardly your typical Sandler faire (perhaps this is why I like it ) :D

I watched that one twice just to try and figure out why he did that one.
Awful movie is my opinion on it.

I just talked to Adam and Mike today. When i told them what you said , they both said Image I couldn't believe it, 2 different calls and it was like they both said it at the same time, those two guys kill me.

Adam Sandler never really did anything for me. I don't hate him but I don't go out of my way to see his movies.

That being said, the previews for his new movie crack me up!!! It's probably the first of his movies that I actually do want to see. I won't be paying $10 to see it in the theatres mind you but it's on the rental list. 8)

The Waterboy brought the lulz. At least, it did when I was 16.
