Wtf, Judd Apatow wrote THIS?
« on: December 12, 2007, 07:53:23 PM »
I found the idea of Judd Apatow writing and producing a adam sandler starring movie interesting but jesus christ the trailer is HORRIBLE. How is this a script by Apatow? HOW?

yea that looked pretty dumb.  I'm sure that Adam Sandler mauled the script.

Alex Payne was behind Chuck and Larry, so maybe there's a new trend of great directors taking a check and telling film nerds to go fuck themselves

From Wiki:

"According to Alexander Payne, the writer of an initial draft of the movie, Sandler took many liberties with his screenplay, "sandlerizing" the movie, in his own words. At some point, he didn't want his name attached to the project."

Apparently Robert Smigel had his hand in the Zohan script too.  Where does this cruel road lead to?

Sandler's movies have basically become a platform for showing the audience over and over what a super-great guy the Sandler character is.

seriously, it's time for Sandler to smack a few girls around, or be a racist.

While sandler still pussified his role in Little Nicky, I at least kind of respected the film for having some balls, in that it was so ridiculously stupid, and not another Big Daddy or Wedding Singer.

Sandler's not Jewish for long.  We're going to trade him and a draft pick to the Catholics for Michael Cera.

We're giving away Adam Sandler.  Not every trade can be Kwame-for-Caron, you know.

I'm catholic, Mandark!  Pick me!  I am more of a McDowell-y character than a comedian, though.

They thought it was funny until like the party scene with fairies and cheeseburgers running around.  Then they told me this is too gay and walked out.
