My 11yo cousin was diagnosed with a very rare form of cancer some years back that took his life at a devastatingly quick pace - Adam Sandler would visit him in the hospital every week for a few months - there were no cameras, no social media posts, no recognition at all - just a super good dude trying to make the rest of a young child’s life a little more enjoyable - my cousin unfortunately passed and I will never forget what Adam did for him 💚💛❤️

Similar story. My bro wasnt well, my aunt worked at SNL, we went to a taping, afer the show, he made time for us. We checked out his rad office overlooking the set. It's insane to think about even now. He's the absolute real deal.

@That_oneguy_mane 7 месяцев назад

The fact he made his own studio, just to make movies with his friends knowing critics will hate it says everything, grown ups is a fun watch and I find most Adam Sandler movies to be great. Uncut gems really showed how much of a great actor he is

@Slavesforsale1 5 месяцев назад

I honestly feel like the fact he doesn't really care about critics or if his movies make the maximum amount of money makes his movie feel more genuine. He's just there to have a good time and it shows.

@RingyDingDing 11 месяцев назад

He seems so genuinely wonderful and yet insecure about his work, which makes him even more genuine in my opinion. People say he can’t act, I believe acting is only good if there’s a genuineness behind it and that’s what he has and that’s what everybody else envies.

@dr.bherrin 11 месяцев назад

Adam once said he isn't really an actor. He just goes out and tries to be himself. It's why so many of his characters seem similar. The best actors don't have to pretend what they are feeling or portraying. They just do it because they have felt it, and its familiar. Maybe the reason people don't think he can act is because he isn't acting. He's just repeating what he knows from his life, and people are so used to seeing someone "acting" like they understand those feelings...when someone comes along who isn't acting, but feeling those feelings, they get confused.

It’s the paradox of critics vs fans. The paradox of what people consider to be typical Hollywood stars (egotistical a holes) vs what Adam Sandler seems to be (a down to earth and genuine person). A paradox of a comedian/comedic actor vs a serious actor. There are plenty of paradoxes to consider.

I used to be critical of Sandler when I was younger too. But I realized some things as I got older. I realized that he was just interested in doing what he loved. What he wanted. And I think that is what confused people about him, his authenticity. He wasn't afraid to fail, he just tried things and had fun regardless of the outcome and he's always been so open to opportunities, without losing himself in the process. I have major respect for him.

Uncut gems is one of the weirdest movies to get snubbed from almost every big award nomination. It's got universal praise from critics and audiences across the board. Rave reviews about the story, directing, acting, editing. It's scores on Rotten and Meta are 91 which is crazy high, especially for meta. It garnered a large cult following pretty much immediately, with celebs even congratulating Adam and the directors on such an achievement. And yet not a single Oscar, Golden Globe, SAG, nomination. Absolutely wild. The directors also did the movie Good Time, which also received universal praise but once again, not a single nom. It just seems strange. I wonder if they have enemies or something involved in these award shows.

Its primarily because of Sandler's reputation, a lot of Academy think they're "too good" for his low-brow comedies (and to be honest, some of them are truly awful). Its the same reason Eddie Murphy lost the Oscar for Dreamgirls, because the Academy couldn't get over Norbit. It does suck, but Sandler did get a SAG nom for Hustle, and he's got another movie coming out soon with the guys who made Uncut Gems, so I think he'll get nominated for (and maybe even win) an Oscar at some point in his life. He certainly deserves it.

I lost both my parents 6 months ago. It’s not easy man, keep your head up and keep moving forward. Any chance you can talk about them take it, to strangers, to friends, anytime you get reminded of them and have an ear to listen talk about them. It’s okay to be mad, sad, scared, lonely, uncertain, wanting to run away from life, and any emotion you may feel. It’s all valid and it all has a purpose. For your sake and theirs, don’t turn to substance abuse. It’s okay to have a few drinks or whatever your vice is, but don’t let it consume you. Make decisions that they would be proud of, and that make you proud of who you are. Give yourself time too, I would recommend not making any rash decisions like getting a new job, moving to a new town, breaking up with a partner, or anything like that. Give yourself atleast 6 months before you make any major decisions like that and communicate with the people you care about. Idk what to do myself but I can tell you that you’re not alone. You lost a father, or people lost a husband, son, friend, cousin, coworker, or whatever capacity they knew them in and you’re not the only one feeling pain. Let it out into the world and heal.

honestly I thought he was just an overrated comedy actor until watching uncut gems. Now… I dont know, now I just wish that his potential was fully utilized by more scripts

He's such a genuine guy. That's why the digs at his movies hurt even more. He really puts a piece of himself out there each time, even if it's just a "silly" movie

@wildfang4083 11 месяцев назад

He's comedies are silly and simple but I like simple sometimes, simple can be the greatest

I grew up on Adam Sandler movies, laughing with my family. I'm going off to college soon and I'm going to miss that His movies created many memories throughout families. Forever thankful for him.

I think it's that we recognize "character growth" and aspects of the hero's journey in his journey and aspects that we ourselves as individuals aspire to.

@@throwacnt7603exactly. He is a great person for young people to look up to because of his values as a family man and a professional. A very underrated legend imo and I’ve always loved all his movies no matter how dumb they were because you could feel he truly cared about his work and had fun doing it.

My family thought he was always hilarious and his comedy has aged pretty well compared to literally 97% of comedians out during his time because he was always making fun of himself instead of consistently punching down like everyone else in the 90’s

@HuckleberryHim 9 месяцев назад

Maybe his comedy was already bad in the past, but it definitely has not aged well either. Have you seen any of them recently? It's hard to make it 2 minutes. It's shocking that a grown man can just act like a mentally challenged baby, with all the grace and talent of literally any human being ever to live who has acted "goofy", and become a Hollywood mega ultra super star known around the globe, with hundreds of millions of dollars. It really is about striking it lucky; most of these celebrities are not special in the slightest.

Maybe it was. That’s the good thing about art, once it’s out there-to each his own.
