Adam Sandler: The Fame Audit

As part III in my series of frivolous posts today, this is awesome:

In life, growth is inevitable. The seasons change, the trees lose their leaves, we put away childish things. But just because all of that is true of life, does that mean we absolutely have to see such a dispiriting pattern played out in the movies as well? In other words, just because we grew up doesn't mean Adam Sandler had to.

We signed on for Adam Sandler: Likable Moron. That's the Adam Sandler presented to us back during his days on Saturday Night Live, making up annoyingly catchy songs about Thanksgiving, pretending to sing opera, coming into a sketch restaurant in a Speedo to offer fresh-ground pepper. This Sandler had a damn pickle for a hand! Now give him some candy!


Read, as they say, the whole thing. (And, as a bonus for Ali, here's the Keanu Reeves audit.)
