How did the golden Jew become so loathed not just by audiences but studios too?

There will never be another big hyper Adam Sandler event movie with a 40 million plus opening

Sandler really needs to stop doing that "pretending to be retarded" character, his movies are best when he's just a normal guy. Billy Madison was annoying as fuck, I couldn't watch the first 10 mins of it

David Spade was on Howard Stern, essentially to plug these new Netflix movies with basically Sandler's stock players from Grown Ups.
He said something likie "It's gonna be great, me, Rock, Sandler, his guitar......"


With that, my soul was crushed.
That's right, the highlight of the show:
The Hanukkah Song
Oy Vey, the ride never ends
>>
Because they found out that his movies were incredibly cheap to make but had over-inflated budgets because he overpaid himself and his friends. It doesn't matter if they are bad, but they better be cheap and bad.

With that deal with netflix Adam Sandler gets paid tens of millions of dollars just to hang out with his friends and record it.

It must make you so mad op that he gets paid all that money and hes not even trying

It's easy for comics to get burned out. It's also difficult for comics to evolve past their original style.

I guess Sandler talked him into coming back and doing standup with him on tour again. He said there will be a Norm MacDonald Live season 3 too. Thank you based Norm.

Everyone that knows Sandler thinks he's a great guy but I just can't forgive him for the cinematic abortions he's shat onto the box office in the past few years. I guess it would make it easier to hate him if the guy was a real jerk though.

I know that feel, senpai. I rewatched some early Sandler-core and all the movies I remember liking the best are garbage. Billy Madison, Waterboy, Happy Gilmore... any title where he acts like an autistic retard ends up being 95% cringe now.

It's so godawful I just can't figure out why I thought it was good.

The retard schtick doesn't work in a vacuum, you need a straight man to pull it off. The only good scenes in these movies are when his retardation clashes with a normal person, like this:

It's a shame though he couldn't do the bear Jew role. That's could've been an epic performance, and you could tell it was made specifically for him.

Also here's another actor that needs to make a good comeback. He was hilarious in his movies, and it sucks the shriek movies are the only thing keeping him barely relevant.

You have to be in a narrow age category to appreciate Adam Sandler. Over 25, and even if you grew up with it, it'll be too juvenile for you. Under 20 and it's too old for you. But 20-25? Old enough that it was part of your childhood, but young enough to think this kind of thing is funny? That's your sweet spot.

Because this is no longer the 90s/early 2000s, and America's demographics have changed drastically.

I bet if you broke down the races of the movie-goers for his piece of jewy turd movies, they'd mainly be white male goyim. Shitskins and niggers still think he's white, so they won't go see his movies.
