I disagree.  The quintessential Sandler movie has to suck and Happy Gilmore does not suck.

Truth. The quintessential Sandler movie is Grown Ups 2. It's a shitty money grab with all of his stupid friends (and Fat Kevin James).

Good for happy gilmore.....oh my god

Is there a target Adam Sandler audience outside of middle school boys?  I say that as someone who enjoyed -They're all going to laugh at you, Billy Madison, etc - between the ages of 10-13, but then never again.

Nope.  And I was the perfect age.  And +rep if I could for your handle.  Slut Benwallah.

stop fraternizing with the help, Gilmore. Just hit your ball, if you can find it...Hi Grandma.

Happy Gilmore is in the canon of great comedies for me. But I’m not sure how much that that is because it is greatness vs... it came out when I was 11. Where something like Anchorman is funny, not classic to me in the same way.

Super rep for this man.  I would take her in any form, but this was phenomenal.  Especially for a 15 year old or so.  Got damn.

Love how shooter mcgavin lives on over 20 yrs later. That character was casted perfectly

This. Sandler sucks and couldn't make a good movie these days if the script bit him in the ass.

[BurntOrange&White 40,008]

Sandler has the same humor he had when he was in the 90s....never evolved at all. As we grew up the humor got old and childish.

[Wild Bill 324]

Happy place.

I was just looking for the other half of this bottle. Oh, there's some.

I saw two big fat naked bikers in the woods off 17 havin sex.  how am I supposed to chip with that going on, doug?

[futureman 22,544]

still like billy madison more.  but they’re both great.  

that’s my boy is underrated.  the fact that he named his kid “han solo berger” is worth the price of admission alone.

That is a good movie.

[wutang75 449]

That’s My Boy is my true guilty pleasure. So bad but some really funny parts.

Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore are 1a and 1b. I just know that I knew people that loved Big Daddy. I hated that shit.

Wat?  Big Daddy was great.  But not for this thread.

Out of the 42,987 movies Adam Sandler has made, roughly three are watchable and entertaining.  This is one of those three.

[Herpa Derpa 6,131]

First two posts ended the discussion, but Lou made it worth continuing.

[Murfdogg21 4,425]

+1 on Happy Gilmore was his best movie, not the median. Billy Madison and Waterboy are guilty pleasure watches on rerun. Big Daddy uuhhhhhhhhhh, and well everything else no thank you.

The Wedding Singer is a fine movie too.

So I guess I am the lone fan on Surly for liking 50 first Dates?

[lateshow 1,307]

His run to about 2000 was good. After that? Pure money grab garbage. Except Funny People. I like it. 

[Baboontyme 2,824]

Happy Gilmore was ok but Little Nicky was by far the best.

Because Sandler played himself?

I would agree with this statement if you changed the number three to zero

[Johnny Sack 8,397]

I liked Happy G, Billy Madison, The Waterboy, The Wedding Singer, Big Daddy, Longest Yard, and Just Go With It.  Probably in that order.

[hayden_horn 11,365]

big daddy was the beginning of the end. billy madison, happy gilmore, wedding singer and waterboy are all pretty good and hold up. it really goes down hill from there, and it starts with big daddy. interestingly, it seems his first executive producer credit was waterboy. he probably started really huffing his own farts at that point in time.

*tour.  “this is shooter’s tour” is the quote you were looking for. 

[Modessit 5,603]

If you told me I had to sit down and watch 5 Sandler movies, they'd go in this order:

 

1) Happy Gilmore

2) Waterboy

3) Wedding Singer

4) 50 First Dates

5)

 

Not sure I've seen any others that would be worth seeing again. Haven't seen all of them.

Damn you people. Go back to your shanties.

[South Austin 52,603]

1.a.  Happy Gillmore

1.b.  Billy Madison

2.  Funny People (I may be in a small minority)

3.  The Wedding Singer

Everything else is sub-mediocre to shitty.
