I don't like his movies but I respect his hustle. He has enough money to approach an agent and tell them "I want to make this movie, I want to cast all my friends in it, and I want my character to walk away with a hot date at the end" and the agent just says okay.

They're pretty much all the same movie with different names on them. But it's pretty clear that everyone involved in those movies was just having a great time making them.

I think he has a career because he has serious dirt on somebody.

I also loved Sandler in PTA's Punch Drunk Love

Probably the best RomCom.

Well considering that I detest Adam Sandler, obv no.

He's an irritating little shit who never grew out of being 5 years old. He's not funny, he's not charismatic, I hate his ugly little beady-eyed face.

Always hated him. Its just the most banal frat boy attention-seeking attempts at humor, and nothing ever rises above the level of his shitty Thanksgiving turkey song.

I have to disagree that nothing ever rises above that style humor. He does have a few very effective turns with serious filmmaking.
