Adam Sandler and Andy Samberg in the first image from I Hate You Dad

When it was first announced this time last year that Andy Samberg and Adam Sandler were teaming up for the comedy I HATE YOU DAD, I was excited to see Samberg get a role in a major comedy. I was thinking about that as I was looking at the first image from the film nearly a year later and I think we’ve finally come to the point (especially after JACK AND JILL and GROWN UPS) that Sandler’s presence in a film is a seriously negative drawback. I can’t say I was ever his biggest fan, but now I can officially say I dread watching his movies. But the idea of a teenager fathering a child and then raising him, only to try and go back and reconnect years later is actually pretty amusing. So here’s hoping he and Samberg can make it work.
Along with Sandler and Samberg, the Sean Anders directed film stars Leighton Meester, James Caan, Susan Sarandon, Milo Ventimiglia, Will Forte, Colin Quinn and Vanilla Ice. I HATE YOU DAD hits theaters on June 15th, 2012.
