Taylor Lautner and Andy Samberg make Adam Sandler seem funny in the Grown Ups 2 trailer

Wednesday, April 3rd, 2013

I know what you’re going to say before you even think it; why in the world would Adam Sandler make a sequel to GROW UPS.  And the answer is very simple; because people still pay to see his movies and studios still pay him to make his movies.  He stopped being funny a long time [...]

Kristen Stewart, Adam Sandler and Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 2 win big at the Razzies

Sunday, February 24th, 2013

Many of the complaints people have about the Oscars are just as applicable to the Razzies.  Although the Razzies are clearly just for fun and were never meant to be taken seriously, they always end up being an un-popularity (yes, I just made up a word) contest.  So as soon as the nominations were announced, [...]

Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore may reteam for another romantic comedy

Friday, February 22nd, 2013

It’s easy to make fun of Adam Sandler for his horrible movies and in many regards, he deserves it for choosing such un-challenging work for two decades, but the guy knows what he his and his movies keep making money.  But maybe he’s a little nervous since he’s on the other side of 40 now [...]

Hotel Transylvania Blu-ray Review

Friday, February 1st, 2013

Ah, 118…It’s that milestone age when every vampire girl is old enough to take daddy’s hearse out for a spin, and wants to get out and see what else the world has to offer. But that’ll never happen for Dracula’s daughter if he never lets her out. On the night of her 118th birthday, Mavis [...]

Adam Sandler, Chris Rock and Salma Hayek appear in a new photo for Grown Ups 2

Tuesday, January 8th, 2013

This summer we are all going to be bombarded with another Adam Sandler film, and lucky for us this one looks about as mediocre as his last couple of flicks. The sequel to the 2010 film GROWN UPS, cleverly called GROWN UPS 2 ,will be making its way to theaters in July and now we [...]

Adam Sandler’s next comedy will be a Western called Ridiculous 6

Friday, October 26th, 2012

Adam Sandler will be back writing and shooting his upcoming comedy RIDICULOUS 6  this Spring at Paramount Pictures. This next Adam Sandler adventure will be a Western in the style of THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN, but unfortunately along with the title that’s all we know so far. We can only assume that the film will have [...]

Adam Sandler and Andy Samberg go head-to-head in the new Hotel Transylvania trailer

Thursday, June 21st, 2012

A new trailer for the animated film HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA, featuring the voice talents of Adam Sandler and Andy Samberg, has been released and I can’t help myself, I still want to see it. Animated films can be fun, but animated films with classic monsters just makes me smile and HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA could deliver that to [...]

Adam Sandler is a vampire in new trailer for Hotel Transylvania

Tuesday, April 24th, 2012

Sony has a new animated comedy that is coming out this fall and I have to confess that it looks pretty cute and I think Adam Sandler will to make a pretty good Dracula as well. That’s a pretty bold statement considering how many lame animated features have come out over the years. Sure Pixar [...]

Adam Sandler recruits Taylor Lautner for Grown Ups 2

Thursday, April 5th, 2012

Taylor Lautner is currently in talks to take on a role in the upcoming sequel to the 2010 Adam Sandler comedy GROWN UPS.

Jack and Jill (Blu-ray)

Tuesday, March 6th, 2012

When you think about Directors who’s films have grossed over a billion dollars throughout their career, chances are you AREN’T thinking about Adam Sandler-favorite Dennis Dugan, but Dugan is on the list. This week sees the release on Blu-ray of the most recent collaboration between the two, the lackluster JACK AND JILL (2011). Sandler and [...]

Adam Sandler, Andy Samberg and Leighton Meester star in the first That’s My Boy trailer

Thursday, March 1st, 2012

For my money, Adam Sandler has two types of films: the ridiculously stupid, almost unwatchable films (JACK AND JILL) and then the mildly amusing films (JUST GO WITH IT). From the first trailer, it looks like his latest effort, THAT’S MY BOY (which was previously called I HATE YOU DAD) seems like the latter.  I [...]

Adam Sandler, Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart receive multiple Razzie nominations

Sunday, February 26th, 2012

As America prepares to celebrate the best in film for 2011, let us not let those that committed horrible crimes against cinema go unpunished.  So thank goodness for the Razzies, which have just announced their nominations for the worst of 2011.  Some of these are pretty clever, including nominating THE HANGOVER II for worst sequel [...]

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

Tuesday, January 17th, 2012

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 [...]

The sequel for Adam Sandler’s Grown Ups gets a writer

Tuesday, December 6th, 2011

Posted by: Zack Bruce Was GROWN UPS that big of a deal that it deserves a sequel? While I will generally watch most films with Adam Sandler, with the exception of JACK AND JILL, I have to wonder why this is getting sequel. As it turns out, there has never been a sequel for any [...]

Henry Cavill’s Immortals edges Adam Sandler’s Jack and Jill at the weekend box office

Sunday, November 13th, 2011

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant For a lot of us, IMMORTALS was a dry run for Henry Cavill to see how he’ll do donning the cape in the Superman reboot, MAN OF STEEL.  Although $32 million isn’t going to shatter any records, these days a $30+ million opening isn’t too shabby.  This weekend, it was enough [...]

Miley Cyrus has joined the cast of Hotel Transylvania as Adam Sandler’s daughter

Friday, November 4th, 2011

Posted by: Zack Bruce HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA already has a pretty large voice cast lined up and now they’ve added two more actors to the project. Miley Cyrus and David Koechner will lend their vocals for the film. We know way more about Cyrus’ character than we do Koechner’s. Well, really we know all we need [...]

Here’s the first sneak peek at Adam Sandler’s animated Dracula for Hotel Transylvania

Tuesday, November 1st, 2011

Posted by: Zack Bruce Halloween is over. Typing that makes me really sad but then I look to the future and realize that I get to give thanks soon to some delicious turkey. Then there’s also Christmas, though as an adult you end up getting the “not-so-fun” presents– like socks and kitchenware. To keep the [...]

Zookeeper (Blu-ray)

Wednesday, October 19th, 2011

Five years after Griffin’s marriage proposal to Stephanie goes incredibly (and hilariously) wrong, we reunite with Griffin (Kevin James) at his brother’s engagement party. Hosted at the zoo where Griffin works, we get a glance of all the animals within the park while seeing Griffin stumble over his words when he glimpses Stephanie (Leslie Bibb) [...]

Adam Sandler is frightened on this poster for Jack and Jill

Friday, September 23rd, 2011

Posted by: Zack Bruce This poster for JACK AND JILL is scary. It’s so scary that even Adam Sandler looks frightened on it. Let’s all just be honest with each other, this movie looks terrible. The sad fact is that people will go see it regardless. Mindless humor doesn’t bother me but when it just [...]

Adam Sandler, Katie Holmes and Al Pacino in the Jack and Jill trailer

Friday, July 8th, 2011

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant This weekend, audiences will learn (again) that Adam Sandler produces some really horrible movies with ZOOKEEPER.  But that’s not enough for Sandler, he has to remind the world that not only can he produce really horrible movies, he can also star in them.  But only that, he can star in them [...]

Adam Sandler, Kevin James and Andy Samberg to voice characters in Hotel Transylvania

Tuesday, July 5th, 2011

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant I’d like to think that if I ever became rich and famous, I’d bring along all of my old friends I met along the way and take care of them.  But I would probably ditch them and make newer, more attractive friends.  But Adam Sandler (who surprised me in JUST GO [...]

Just Go With It (Blu-ray)

Friday, June 10th, 2011

It has been a long time since I’ve liked an Adam Sandler film.  In his defense, I’ve quit watching his more recent stuff so I can’t give those films a proper grade.  But that’s not a good sign when people become so jaded they give up on your films.  I am happy to say, despite [...]

Monday, April 11th, 2011

Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant Sony Pictures Home Entertainment has announced that the romantic comedy JUST GO WITH IT, starring Adam Sandler, Jennifer Aniston, Brooklyn Decker, Nicole Kidman and Nick Swardson, will be released on Blu-ray June 7, 2011.

Russell Brand wants to give directing a shot

Monday, April 4th, 2011

Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant Over the last couple of years Russell Brand has turned into one of the highest grossing comedians in Hollywood. With hits like GET HIM TO THE GREEK and FORGETTING SARAH MARSHALL and now with HOP and ARTHUR coming out next week, it’s no surprise that he wants to make that natural [...]

Gossip Girl’s Leighton Meester and Vanilla Ice join Adam Sandler in I Hate You, Dad

Friday, April 1st, 2011

Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant Casting for Adam Sandler’s next comedy just got interesting. Now joining the veteran comedian and Saturday Night Live alum Andy Samberg is: Leighton Meester (Gossip Girl and THE ROOMMATE), James Caan and, wait for it…Vanilla Ice, or as he will be credited in the film- Robert Van Winkle. I HATE YOU, [...]

Just Go With It

Monday, February 14th, 2011

Danny is a plastic surgeon with a big heart but after getting it broken on his wedding day, he decided it would be easier to simply pretend to be married in order to pick up chicks.  Years later, he finally meets a girl he thinks could be the one but in order to make it happen [...]

Adam Sandler and Justin Bieber battling it out at the box office

Sunday, February 13th, 2011

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Adam Sandler is a successful Hollywood comedian that has been making movies for over 15 years.  Justin Bieber has been famous for about 15 minutes.  In fact, Adam Sandler has been making movies as long as Justin Bieber has been alive, so it seems strange that these two would wind up [...]

The Rite takes the box office while The Mechanic needs fixing

Sunday, January 30th, 2011

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant This many years after the SILENCE OF THE LAMBS films, I’m surprised that Anthony Hopkins can still open a horror movie, especially one that was panned as much as THE RITE.  But leave it to the 73 year-old Hopkins to surprise everyone once again.  Of course, it didn’t hurt that Warner [...]

Adam Sandler and Andy Samberg get together for I Hate You Dad

Friday, January 14th, 2011

Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant It’s mid-January 2011, and I don’t think we’ve had a single Adam Sandler story this year so without further ado.  Adam Sandler and Andy Samberg are in talks to team up for the comedy I HATE YOU DAD. The film will be distributed by Happy Madison Productions and follows a father [...]

Stephen Dorff writing a comedy to star Jack Nicholson

Monday, November 29th, 2010

Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant Yes, Stephen Dorff is back on the Hollywood scene!  After his starring role in the upcoming Sofia Coppola film SOMEWHERE (coming to theaters December 22, 2010), Dorff is staying on top of his game by selling an idea to Adam Sandler’s Happy Madison Productions for a comedy starring him and Jack [...]

Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston in the Just Go With It trailer

Friday, November 5th, 2010

Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant As of late, Adam Sandler has been putting out a ton of films.  Some are good, some are just an avenue to get together with his friends, hang out for awhile and film it. With this recent addition entitled JUST GO WITH IT, Sandler plays a bachelor who’s MO is to [...]

Kevin James to star in Martial Arts Comedy

Thursday, September 16th, 2010

Posted by: Nathan Swank Sony Pictures has secured Kevin James to star in an untitled martial arts movie. I can only assume it’s a comedy because James will play a physics teacher… and it’s an overweight guy doing martial arts. Think the late Chris Farley in BEVERLY HILLS NINJA. James is a funny guy but [...]

Monday, August 30th, 2010

Toy Story 3 continues its box office dominance, Grown Ups finishes strong

Sunday, June 27th, 2010

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant This weekend seems to be an unusually heavily scrutinized weekend, only because it features a summer opening Tom Cruise move without “Mission Impossible” in the title.  His latest film, KNIGHT AND DAY, finished with $20.5 million ($28 since Wednesday), which was good enough for third place in a busy weekend.  Some [...]

Toy Story 3 breaks records while Jonah Hex flops at the box office

Sunday, June 20th, 2010

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant We all knew TOY STORY 3 would be successful, just like every Pixar film is successful, but even I was surprised at it taking in $109 million on its opening weekend.  On Friday alone, it took in $41 million, making it the single biggest opening for an animated film.  But the [...]

Kevin James and Salma Hayek looking at Here Comes the Boom

Friday, April 30th, 2010

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Is Kevin James a legitimate A-list comedian?  When did this happen?  I feel like I was going along, minding my own business and then all of a sudden, Kevin James is a star.  After the rousing success that was PAUL BLART: MALL COP, James has racked up the films.  He can [...]

Adam Sandler, Chris Rock and Salma Hayek in the new Grown Ups trailer

Saturday, April 17th, 2010

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant I wish I could tell you that the second trailer for GROWN UPS completely changed my mind about the film and made it look like a really funny movie.  But if I said that, I’d be lying because this trailer looks just as bad as the first one.  I can appreciate [...]

Nicole Kidman making an appointment with The Wedding Doctor

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant I have nothing against Nicole Kidman or her choices in film.  In fact, I would say I respect her hankering for indie films and her reluctance to do romantic comedies or big budget films (at least exclusively).  So I’m a little surprised that she’s looking to do the romantic comedy THE [...]

He Said/She Said #20: Mr. Deeds (2002)

Monday, March 1st, 2010

by: Nathan Swank and Rebeca Surber He Said/She Said is a weekly column where a male and female reviewer from the site team up to debate the merits of a particular film. HE SAID I don’t know what happened to Adam Sandler.  For the record, I think he is a talented guy.  He showed so [...]

Funny People

Monday, November 30th, 2009

A lot of people will try to tell you that Judd Apatow is a comedic genius and one of the best screenwriters working today.  To back this up, you have examples like KNOCKED UP and 40 YEAR OLD VIRGIN.  Both of those are great movies, but when I think of Apatow, I can’t help but [...]

Adam Sandler, Chris Rock and Kevin James in Grown Ups Trailer

Thursday, November 12th, 2009

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant In 1995, if you had told me there was going to be a movie starring Adam Sandler, David Spade, Chris Rock, Rob Schneider and Salma Hayek (loved her in DESPERADO), I would have been on the edge of my seat in anticipation of catching this cinematic, comedic masterpiece.  Now?  Not so [...]
