I don't know any good movies with Adam Sandler. Of course, he made a lot of money on his dumb comedies, which stupid people like popcorn bought up. Except people quickly get bored of the same faces. Didn't he ever want to be anything but a clown? Although, if he's a hostage to his role, then he'll never get out of this swamp. If he ended his career, it was a good decision. I read on :finger: that he has now gone into debt altogether and racked up a million dollars in loans. I don't know if the info is reliable. It's a site I use as a cheat sheet on saving money, and the post about Sandler might have been there by accident.

I watched Reign O’er Me the other night and despite a convincing performance from Sandler it felt like a half-baked movie

He doesn't pretend his movies are awesome. If you're too cool for Adam Sandler, you're just too cool.
