The Real Reason SNL Had No Choice But To Fire Adam Sandler 

50 First Dates

Bedtime Stories

Happy Gilmore

None I hate him

Big Daddy

100%

dangerous retard is more accurate

Yup.

same, i was stunned

*whim

Seriously. Some of his movies come off as "This is me just having fun with my friends" and it's great

@@kasuraga No it’s not he’s the only one who will hire his untalented friends in movies

@@josephkerr2807 except all of his friends have starred in good movies outside of Sandler. Kevin James had a successful series and did some good dramatic performances like Becky. David Spade had great comedies like Black Sheep, Joe Dirt, and Tommy Boy. Chris Rock has had several TV series, a long successful stand up career, even did some decent documentaries, and most of his movies have had little to nothing to do with Sandler until recently. Salma Hayak had a long successful career before Sandler as well and acted in several Mexican movies and shows, then showed up in Dusk to Dawn, Wild Wild West, and Dogma. They all appeared in shit but they all have talent, their biggest problem is that they appear in shit because its financially successful. Some of them like Kevin James and Sandlet himself COULD be award winning actors, they have some dramatic chops, they just rarely put in the effort since it doesnt make them as much money, it's hard, and it's not nearly as fun but I cant really blame them. If you could get paid a fortune to go on vacation. With your family and fiends or bust your ass for less money at a less interesting job which would you do?

Right?? His group was and still is- the boys.

@@arthas640 *thank you*

@The Wandering M Both work.

@The Wandering M Well, it should be obvious since it's the second word in the first sentence

He was not in bad movies. His critics have no talent or creativity.

Billy Madison is way better than Happy Gilmore but HG was OK too. I also liked Mr. Deeds when I finally watched it. Waterboy was great. Also his newer movies like the ones with Jennifer Aniston are awesome. All in all he can make great movies.

Dude! NOTHING about adam sandler is “underrated!” If anything, he’s the exact opposite… he’s overrated! Everybody worships the guy and treats him like a god.

And a good amount was fired lol

Don’t forget Norm McDonald.

@@mynameisnotearl4383 Norm da GOAT

Except you forgot Norm Macdonald. Jim Belushi, John Belushi. You forgot Eddie Murphy his movies have made over 7 billion dollars. Will Ferrell

No one gonna mention Mike Myers?

Remember Fat Albert? How funny and heartfelt his performance was? I wish he’d do stuff like that more cuz it was great, but he chooses to keep doing mid ter comedy for some reason, almost everyone in Fat Albert went on to have good to great careers

@@ninjanibba4259 Except Bill Cosby.

@@raiNhawk05 I honestly keep forgetting he’s in that film till I watch it, good thing too

@@ninjanibba4259 yep, he created the cartoon and produced the movie too. So I guess they felt like they had to give him a cameo.

@@raiNhawk05 he used that Stan Lee status smh

Thank you. I searched for a comment about this. Eddie is the legend of SNL. Many have had success but... Eddie f*

I wrote this same comment after yours of course but I knew I wasn't wrong. Weird how he excluded Murphy but included Kristen who I think is great but I don't consider her a blockbuster movie star. Steve and Bill had there moments but Eddie was a bankable box office super star

Yes good correction.

@@mauricemaple1430 Julia Louis Dreyfus. If you pay attention. every sketch on SNL that Murphy did. the only good ones had her in them. She helped more than anyone realizes. Noe compare how much she has made since SNL compared to anyone else.

wow... that's sooo cool to know.... thanks for sharing this....

Namsha?

Namsha?

Nerdstalgic used to be one of the best media analysis channels on youtube but its definitely taken a downturn lately

Agreed. Very clickbaity

Thanks for saving me 8 mins bro👍

Right on… RU-vid is killing RU-vid with trash content

Lmao

The first time I saw Adam Sandler show what he can really do as an actor. There were always glimpses of it but Uncut Gems was when he really decided to push it.

u should check out the movie good times! the brothers that made uncut gems also made that movie and it’s the same tension throughout!! really great film

@@kristenbuckman1868 Yeah I like _Good Time._ It's one of the A24 movies that made them a famous subculture for movie buffs.

You have not Watched Jagten (The Hunt) By Thomas Vinterberg With Mad Mikkelsen. not only much more stressful and better. Both great movies.

And he got people to watch all his terrible movies until 2011 when people finally said "this guy is awful".

He also forgot Eddie Murphy, who was an SNL cast member and whose movies out-earned Sandler’s by a wide margin.

You are not the only one. I thought that was a bit sloppy.

I know he wasn’t, but I can understand why people think he was; as many times as he’s guested. Plus, iconic sketches, like the wild and crazy guys with him and Dan Aykroyd.

It's not too late - they are both still around.

1980 was the biggest turnover. The whole cast AND Lorne Michaels himself

Any industry can 'break the heart' of someone working in it, or aspiring to be in it.

Same to you!

It’s only Thursday for me

@@drizzyuzumaki8753 keep the faith

Literally. My favorite era of SNL was the mid 2000s-early 2010s, but I know my opinion is bias because that was the era I started watching the show as a kid. Everyone's opinion on which era of SNL was the best seems to be based on nostalgia.

At this point, I sincerely hate everyone who has *any* opinion on SNL. It’s never been good and it’s always aged like milk. EDIT: “Before that it was boring and outdated and after that it was stale” It’s almost like plugging and chugging comedy and politics for the sake of ad revenue will never hold up over the long term, gee golly gosh 🤔🤔

Actually the 80’s most cast members would only last one season before getting fire the season 6 cast from 80-81 all but Eddie Murphy and joe piscopo got fired from the show many times in the 80’s snl was in danger of getting cancelled cause at the end of the 5th season not only did whole main cast leave the show lorne michaels went with them and didn’t return to the show until the 85-86 season

That sounds really fun

Nah, this was just a video to stroke all of Sandler’s fans off. Needed to hit that “turn your brain off/popcorn muncher movie” demographic I guess.

I don't recall him being on there
