Adam Sandler Poll

What an awful list.

What no storytellin' uncle movie?

Click is a better movie than the ad campaign would've led you to believe.

gilmore, done

i'm a big fan of the guy's early work and love "PDL" like few other movies, but "zohan" was one of the worst movies i've ever seen

looking at emmanuelle chriqui was the only thing that got me through that

i stopped watching them after big daddy because i didn't wanna ruin the memories

lol i have seen every one of these save for two

I've only seen about half of these, and PDL isn't among them. I keep meaning to watch it...

Voted Big Daddy nonetheless.

I've seen way too many sadly. Sandler has never been funny so I have no idea why.

spanglish looked like the kind of movie that would me an aneurysm so i didn't see it

So disappointed I couldn't vote for this:

omg that photoshop

The production was shot entirely on a cruise ship going from New Orleans to Cancun. The ship was going to the Miss Universe Pageant and was filled with beauty queens from all over the United States. The camera crew forgot to bring a box of lenses on the ship, so the director of photography was forced to shoot with the wrong lenses

Sounds completely professional!

Its horrible, truly awful. Zohan is probably Citizen fucking Kane in comparison. Fun if you like to play "spot the continuity errors" though.

my head says Happy Gilmore but my heart says Punch Drunk Love

His character is named Schecky Moskowitz!

See, the thing about this poll is that you can just cut if off after the first two, save for the stray vote for PDL (which I like btw). Really, you probably could have just isolated it to Billy Madison and Happy Gillmore, but whatevs.

Gillmore.

i hate to admit it but 50 First Dates made me all gooey inside despite the presence of both adam sandler AND drew barrymore.

that said, voting PDL.

Punch-Drunk Love or Reign Over Me. Best Sandler comedy? MR. DEEDS. Big Daddy is ok, too.

Mr. Deeds? Challops.

john turturro is pretty funny in it but that's it.

Gillmore.

well this was inspired by a 77 thread that was billy madison vs happy gilmore

o yeah. duh. (I'm a bit tipsy at this point)

carry on then.

"NOT. FUNNY."

"Oh, Adam Sandler!"

Happy Gilmore

wedding singer and PDL are also decent. Zohan would be ok if rob schneider were completely excised from it.

bulletproof is godawful. i seriously doubt going overboard is worse.

little nicky is the dark horse here

50 First Dates!

Punch Drunk Love = one of the worst films I've ever sat through.

Why isn't Airheads on the list? I would've voted for that.

not really co-lead in Airheads. I vote Billy Madison... "of course I peed my pants!" so many great scenes.

I really like "The Wedding Singer", and "Zohan" was shockingly decent, so there's at least two on the list that I can vote for without shame.

Little Nicky is maybe the greatest surrealist film of the last 20 years

whoa

it's no Freddy Got Fingered

I really liked "Eight Crazy Nights". Just sayin'.

This poll is just painful. Painful.

PDL is going to win an ILX poll. Delete polls.

I swore a blood feud against Adam Sandler and since raining vengeance of him and all his descendants is not an option, I am unable to vote in this poll.

I've seen the trailers for most of these, but that's about it.

mr deeds on tbs right now. i'd say it's abt in the middle of the pack quality-wise, but dude's career ain't a bell curve

Seen all of these save Eight Crazy Nights. PDL for sure.

when I was younger, I thought Billy Madison was hilarious. Especially "where's Billy?" "he's in school man" "oooh yeah".

^^norm is brilliant in billy madison. "this is the best night of my life!"

I think Billy Madison might be one of my favorite movies. "This could be our milk."

It was interesting seeing 'Punch Drunk Love' and 'Anger Management' in the same week.

Wedding Singer's my favorite

i hated Waterboy due to its huge popularity in my high school, but Mr. Deeds was actually even worse. never saw Little Nicky, thank god.

Little Nicky bitchez

Grandma's Boy

Click is a hateful movie which argues against life. Do not vote for it. It is horror.

Click and Little Nicky fall into the daringly bad/so bad they're interesting category for me, while Mr. Deeds is just auto-pilot lazy, the Big Daddy formula but more clock-punching, and Anger Management was godawful--the only movie I've walked out of in years, and with droves of other people doing the same.

That said, the combination of good intentions and bad taste appealed to me in I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry and You Don't Mess with the Zohan, while 50 First Dates had a good premise. I totally bought and dug Punch-Drunk Love. I have a feeling the guiltiest pleasures are the best films: Happy Gilmore, Billy Madison, The Waterboy, and The Wedding Singer, in about that order.

on second thought, i think i should've voted 50 first dates. :/

haven't seen anything after the longest yard, which was more boring than outright bad and the only movie of his i've ever found truly appalling was anger management. i don't really hate sandler tho, wd rather watch any of his films over say, a mike myers or eddie murphy vehicle.

Happy Gilmore has Shooter McGavin and Sandler isn't playing a complete idiot, so...

I went to see Reign Over Me at a screening snd the director did Q and A after the film. It was really embarrassing e.g. "I have a whole bunch of references to the Who in the movie. Why? Because they're the best band ever and I loved them in high school. Next question. Why is that scene in the movie? Good question, because I love oral sex jokes I mean who doesn't I'm just a guy BAHHH anyway you guys have been terrific I'm out of here I hope this movie cleared up 9/11 for everyone."

Billy Madison

Going Overboard poster is begging for an Arshavin shop.

I dunno dudes this movie looks like it contains some madcap antics

Next time a videostore has a going out of business sale I will be looking for that!

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

The rest of the world has caught up to me:

i never read rotten tomatos but its p funny that it's design is basically "white men with word balloons"

this is a p good takedown

I’m not even sure this qualifies as a real movie.

The downward spiral of Adam Sandler’s Hollywood career hits rock bottom with “Jack and Jill,” a wheezy, possibly inbred comedy which ends up as nothing more than a series of individual sketches linked together by a single visual joke. Farts are farted and balls are scratched, but what’s really depressing to witness here is Sandler’s complete laziness, failing to secure at least one measly laugh, trashing his once delightfully absurdist self to make a grotesque comedy that doesn’t even attempt to sustain a plot, instead brimming with poo-poo and pee-pee jokes. This movie barely has a pulse.

& it will still earn $200M

"But there are other molecules saying, "Hey, we'd like some energy too." And it uses its own pigment molecule, chlorophyll, to carry out the action. This does not make the ribosomes happy. Oh. Poor chlorophyll is caught in the middle of this."

"Chlorophyll? More like "bore-ophyll!"

hearing Norm talk about this guy really warmed me up to him. that said, I really think Click is probably one of the worst movies I've ever seen, it's almost like a masterclass in how not to fuse genres together

Was unexpectedly ambushed by emotion when he played the song about Chris Farley at the end of his new Netflix special

this piece on Sandler’s pickup basketball skills is pretty great

He's decent but some ppl react like his playing level is that of an ex-D1 player or something
