Adam Sandler

WHO ON EARTH IS PAYING TO SEE GROWN UPS 2?

Can somebody please solve the mystery of WHO is buying all those tickets to Adam Sandler movies? Grown Ups 2 was a boxoffice hit this weekend. The bathroom humor appeals to 11 year old boys, but do they really have that much money? This lazy, stupid and abrasive movie has the same gas –passing and lowbrow burping jokes the original had. The Adam Sandler script is horrendous and he must be encouraged to stop writing! We actually like Adam in movies he doesn’t create himself. And we like the collection of comics he surrounds himself with. It’s a CRIME the scripts aren’t better. We couldn’t even sit though a screening of this movie to the end. Who in their right mind is PAYING to see Grown Ups 2?

WANNA SEE HOLLYWOOD STARS? GO TO A LAKERS GAME

Look who’s hangin’ out at the Lakers game. Jack Nicholson and Adam Sandler had a lively conversation and a few laughs between plays. Charlize Theron turned up with her mom Gerda, who must be a big help with Charlize’s little boy Jackson. Charlize just finished “Mad Max: Fury Road” (now she can grow out her hair again) and as far as we know this is the longest time she’s been without a boyfriend.

SPORTS FAN ADAM SANDLER HOLDS UP PRODUCTION TO WATCH RED SOX

Not EVERYONE is happy with the affable Adam Sandler on the set of his currently filming movie Grown Ups 2 on location in Massachusetts. The cast, which includes Chris Rock, Andy Samberg, Salma Hayek, David Spade, Maya Rudolph, Taylor Lautner, and Patrick Schwarzenegger, and most of all, the CREW, are tired of waiting around for Adam. Adam is in the habit of holding up the entire production to go watch a Red Sox game in his TV tent, which has a huge screen playing the game, and several smaller screens showing continuous ESPN and sport events. Sometimes everyone ends up sitting around for around 17 hours straight waiting for Adam, and although they get paid, they’re not thrilled. Adam figures they’re happy getting all that overtime money, but behind his back the crew laments that NOT everyone cares about sports, and they would MUCH rather get the job done and get back to their lives and families.

ADAM SANDLER: UNDERCOVER MULTIMILLIONAIRE

#adamsandler #janetcharlton

Adam Sandler seems pretty down to earth for a guy who has 350 million dollars in the bank. No bodyguards in sight. He saved gas this weekend by riding bicycles with his wife Jackie in Malibu. Adam’s bike towed their two daughters Sadie, 6, and Sunny, 4. His latest movie “That’s My Boy,” in which he plays Andy Samberg’s obnoxious father, opens in June.

JACK AND JILL: ADAM SANDLER IN DRAG AS HIS OWN TWIN SISTER

We tend to like Adam Sandler as a person more than we like most of his movies, but this one tickles our fancy. In “Jack and Jill” he plays a normal husband (married to Katie Holmes) who has a pushy obnoxious twin sister who has more in common with him than he cares to admit. (Adam loves doing drag.) She arrives for a holiday visit and the fun begins this fall. The trailer IS rather inviting.

ADAM SANDLER’S “JUST GO WITH IT” EMBARRASSES EVERYONE INVOLVED

Someone please tell Adam Sandler that he’s not a teenager any more – he’s 44 years old and most of his fans aren’t so young either. His new movie “Just Go With It” (he produced it) seems to be a romantic comedy aimed at 11 year old boys obsessed with bathroom jokes. This has to be one of the lamest scripts in Hollywood history and a huge embarrassment to all the actors involved. It’s a shame, because likeable Adam and Jennifer Aniston actually make an appealing onscreen couple, but all the flat juvenile jokes destroy any “romantic” notions. The scenery and locations are lush, but every dumb comment and contrived situation causes viewers to wince. Both Sandler and Aniston deserve better and these unspeakably bad writers should consider other vocations. Perhaps Adam should consult Steve Martin about how an SNL comic can age gracefully.

JENNIFER ANISTON PLAYS CUPID FOR ADAM SANDLER IN HER NEXT MOVIE

It’s Jennifer Aniston as we rarely see her – glammed DOWN. Jen is filming yet another romantic comedy, “Just Go With It” with Adam Sandler. She’s wearing glasses and has her hair tied back, so her character must be the brainy type. The movie is about a man who enlists the aid of a woman and her kids to help him land his “dream girl.” Nicole Kidman and Heidi Montag are also in the movie.

“FUNNY PEOPLE” HAS A LOT TO OFFER

We decided we really prefer Adam Sandler in other people’s movies. He’s very appealing in “Funny People” and you’re going to love the movie if you can get past those rampant penis jokes and crude references. Judd Apatow’s effort is really a dramatic comedy with the best elements of both. Slimmed down Seth Rogan and Jonah Hill are dependably hilarious as aspiring comics, and adorable Jason Schwartzman as an egocentric sitcom star is perfect. Surprising celebrity cameos abound. It’s a great summer movie full of characters you want to spend time with.
