Rage? The world would be a better place if everybody took a chill pill. It would be even better is some people would choke on it.

So them moving the picture from Universal to Sony fills subby with rage?

Sony? Why am I not surprised. If you didn't hate Sandler before, you should watch this. (new window)

"Rage" is too strong a feeling, submitter. "Bafflement" might be better. Sort of like the bafflement I felt when I saw the previews for Jack and Jill and knew there were actually people in this world dumb enough to see it.

Adam Sandler should have his ball sac yanked over his head for "Eight Crazy Nights". Haven't the Jews suffered enough, Sandler?

Adam Sandler is the greatest actor of our generation.
As a graduate of the Ben Stein School Of Acting, his chameleon like ability to actually become any character he chooses, is nothing short of exhilarating, and somewhat eerie as he surrenders himself and us, to a completely different persona.

Adam Sandler staring in Candyland is a movie you don't have to see.

It's entirely possible the outcome would be that the studios see that Sandler is no longer the bankable star he once was, that he no longer has the ability to bring a mediocre film into greatness like he did with Little Nicky. His offers will dry up. Though this might cause television to take a chance in a show called "Adam" where he marries a Mexican girl and her family.

I'm starting to wonder if he's intentionally pitching horrible ideas, waiting to see when studios just give him a baffled look and tell him to fark off.

hasn't happened yet, he keeps making millions, so why not?

/liked his old 'work'. 3rd grade humor is funny.

Isn't this the sort of shiat Adam Sandler was making fun of in Funny People?

Wayne 985: "Rage" is too strong a feeling, submitter. "Bafflement" might be better. Sort of like the bafflement I felt when I saw the previews for Jack and Jill and knew there were actually people in this world dumb enough to see it.

The only thing that kept my smaller intestine from leaping up through my neck and throttling my brain was the fact I saw the trailer with George C Scott's reaction spliced in.

Tonight, on a very special Adam

Luisa: "Adam, why did the kids at school say those mean things to me? Don't they know that I'm an American, just like them? I don't even know what 'deported' means."

Adam: "Awwww hey now. Don't you worry about them. They're just jealous cuz you're the smartest, prettiest girl in the whole school. And you're the best paper football player, too. That's why I'm going down to the school with you tomorrow and I'm GONNA DEPORT MY FOOT UP ALL THEIR *bleeeeeep* IN FRONT OF THEIR *bleeeeep* GRANDMOTHERS AND SEE HOW THE *bleeeeeep* THEY LIKE IT!"

*canned uproarious laughter*

Depends on what you like Adam Sandler to do to your ears, eyes and mouth, of course.

Now that Michael Bolton has rid himself of his 'No Talent Assclown' honorary title by performing in that Lonely Island skit, I think the title should be bestowed upon a deserving successor. IMO Adam Sandler would be a more than worthy successor as Adam Sandler is the exact opposite of talent.

So will Sony put a trojan in newly printed Candy Land board games?

Manute Bol

Okay, how about this: Adam Sandler is like in love with some girl. But it turns out that the girl is actually a golden retreiever or something.

Jake Havechek

2012-02-01 12:46:21 PM

Or, Adam Sandler is an immature man-child who matures and grows as a human due to the love of a woman who is totally out of his league.

MadMonk

2012-02-01 12:48:21 PM

You have no idea the rage I feel. Universal would have made this movie great, outstanding in every way. In fact it would probably have gone down in history as the highest critically acclaimed film ever produced. Now sony is going to destroy it. We as a people are going to miss out on greatness and the world is much worse off.

Don't you people understand?

Do people watch these guys review movies? The g-d thing was as long as the film and they just ramble on about crap. I was unable to watch more than 10 minutes, so I don't know what the big "gotcha" moment in and why I should hate Sandler, but I am sure it was valid.

There's a piece of me that still holds on to the hope that Sandler will once again produce awesomeness. That's why I watched Mr. Deeds. And Anger Management. And Eight Crazy Nights. And Little Nicky. And Chuck & Larry. And Grown Ups.

And my soul died a little each time. Fark you, Mr. Sandler. Fark you very much.

Had to mime "candyland" to someone during Improv this week... Tried to do Type II diabeetus, but my mimee had no idea what I was doing.

Maybe Wilford Brimely could be the evil lord diabeetus who wants to destroy candyland and its HFC goodness? I'd totally root for him, and his sensible recommendation of oatmeal for breakfast.

Adam Sandler and M.Night Shamalayanman should team up for a sequel to 'The Last Airbender'.

Please..

If Fark was around in 1973, you'd all be pissed at the very notion of Gene Wilder making some sort of silly candy man movie.

shut the fark up and let them make the movie. if it looks like shiat, don't go see it.

Now Clancy Brown exploring candyland, that might be worth watching.

I know.

I mean, I could see Chutes and Ladders. I mean, there would be chutes... and ladders to climb to get to the chutes.

But Candy Land? That shiat is completely unfilmable.

You're comparing Adam Sandler and Gene Wilder? I would go see a candyland movie with Gene Wilder.

This is modern hollywood. Their formula: You take a concept that's already been made, or shouldnt ever be made in the first place, and you make 10 sequels out of it.
Seriously, they're just out of ideas so it's re-hash time, all the time.

Have Lucas produce it just to ad retarded levels of CG.

Yeah, the Adam Sandler part is iffy. But with a Candyland movie comes the potential for some lovely actresses playing Princess Lolly and Queen Frostine! I'm game for that.

Movie totally isn't necessary otherwise.

Some actor is trying to make more money by doing something else? shiat, I'm full of rage now too. My heart rate just went up 20 points. I'll be lucky if I even make it to 40 now. This shiat is very important. Why is no one else paying attention to this?

Considering Happy Madison and Madison 23, he'll have more roles despite the other studios.

Now getting investors for those productions? That's another story.

The only thing chameleon-like about him that I would enjoy is if he could look in two different directions at once, or snag a bug with a sticky tongue that moved faster than a human blink. Since he cannot do either, Adam Sandler is invited to take a long walk off a short pier.
