OnTheRocks Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 Not sure if anyone has seen this trailer. I figured any kind of football would be acceptable this weekend. The Logest Yard
Grant Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 How does Adam Sandler get to keep making movies?

JinVA Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 Wow, I wonder if they used Losman as Sandlers stunt double.
stuckincincy Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 I tossed money down the drain going to see that asinine "Punch Drunk Love". His one and only halfway decent movie was "The Waterboy" - which I saw on tv for free.

Larry Playfair Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 at the risk of sounding gay, spanglish was pretty good, and that new brazilian (?) hottie was amazing as the maid. yum.
MattyT Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 I heard that everyone who goes to see this movie gets a fresh turd to throw at the screen.

It was a disjointed mish-mosh of a flick to me. The opening scene of the rolling piano intrigued, but that was it for me. Waterboy is no prize winner, for sure, but I liked the "jerk-does-well" aspect, his mom, and the girlfriend. I'm happy you liked PDL - it did zero for me, tho. So it goes.

Essentially (this is just my take), it's a movie about overcoming your weaknesses and shortcomings, especially as it pertains to interacting with other people. Sandler's character (Barry something or other) really goes through a transformation from beginning to end, and I think the movie just uses several different quirky (and hopefully entertaining) experiences to spur on the growth. I dunno, I think I tend to appreciate movies that are "different", you know? Besides, it had Phillip Seymour Hoffman in it.......that guy rules, man.
OnTheRocks Posted January 28, 2005 Author Posted January 28, 2005 Wedding Singer was pretty funny. IMHO
ajzepp Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 Wedding Singer was pretty funny. IMHO 221916[/snapback] Forgot about that one......anyone who grew up in the 80s has no excuse for not finding at least SOME humor in that film.
LabattBlue Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 Two Words:HAPPY GILMORE! 221938[/snapback] The scene in Happy Gilmore where he is fighting with Bob Barker cracks me up no matter how many times I see it.
TheMadCap Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 Christ almighty! Are there NO original ideas in Hollywood anymore???? All we get is sh------- remakes and sequels.... :I starred in Brokeback Mountain: :I starred in Brokeback Mountain:

I can see them doing a remake of North Dallas 40. Nolte's character will be played by Owen Wilson, Mac will be played by Ben Stiller.
/dev/null Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 I heard that everyone who goes to see this movie gets a fresh turd to throw at the screen. 221893[/snapback] will these be cheap mass produced turds or high quality hand crafted turds, such as those left on the field by drew bledsoe and rian lindell?

bartshan-83 Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 I love almost all his movies but they are really f'in stupid. Guess you had to be a kid when they came out. Anger Management was real good I thought. Its that quirky, subtle "how would they ever think to do something like that and put it in a movie" mentality (ala Anchorman) that I think is really good. And it gets better the more you see it.
