Why is he still making movies?

Yeah, I think he was spamming a bit too!

For what it's worth, I understand though. I know 'seems like a nice person' is usually a stupid thing to say, as celebrities can always put on an act for talk shows, but one of the reasons I said that about Sandler was I'd just seen him on daily evening magazine show 'The One Show' on BBC TV (UK).

This is a slightly odd show where the guest is introduced at the top and sits there for half-an-hour (live) while the 2 presenters introduce a pre-recorded item (5 min or so, often consumer or wildlife issues), then cut back to talk about the item with the item's presenter, maybe asking the main guest a question (often not), before going to another item, and only after about 15 mins do they talk to the main guest!

Sandler was quite easy-going during all of this, even during a 'live gardening' item at the end when an eccentric gardener was bossing him around, telling him to re-pot some plants into fertilizer(!) He was genuinely not bothered by this, didn't make a fuss or a joke, and just got on with it. I can think of quite a few 'stars' that wouldn't be like that.

Of course, none of this waffle affects Sandler's talents, or what he does with them. I'm sure there have been quite a few talents who were also 'jerks'(although I have more respect for them if they're not). I just said he seems OK because my criticism wasn't personal, that's all.

I know, people on this website can get rediculously and pointlessly cruel. And thank you for the same. But I still think Depp is versatile, but I know many people who think otherwise. I don't think he's always dark and gloomy, but nutty and twisted, yes lol. I don't know...I mean, he's normal is Nightmare on Elm Street, and Chocolat...crazy in the head in Secret Window...whacky as Willy Wonka and Jack Sparrow...nerdy as Ichabod Crane.
So maybe his characters are all different, but have some very similar prsonality traits?
Haha anyways...this is an Adam Sandler thread, isn't it?

Thank you! I feel the same way. He always plays sumone crazy!

I dunno I kind of disagree with what you said about Depp I guess and I'm not like a fan boy but um. Arizona Dreams, Donnie Brasco, Gilbert's Grape, Benny and Joon, Blow, Before night falls. There are more but ill stop I don't want to look like I'm being a jerk listing stuff off. But yeah hes done a lot of roles that are not like the ones he does in Tim Burton movies as far as I'm concerned hes just really good friends with Burton so he takes these roles and since hes so talented plays them amazingly. I think Depp is one of the best actors we have in all honesty. I mean look at Christian Bale maybe I am the only one of this planet who does not like him but hes really not versatile at all, and I mean has anyone see Harsh times? It's god awful lol. Ne ways just my grain of salt however I don't know if any of you saw Punch Drunk love? By Paul Thomas Anderson, Sandler plays a Dramatic roles and he almost won Cannes coveted best Actor for it so the guy has huge talent I think he just needs to Branch out. If you like him check that movie out. It made my Jaw drop, his performance is Incredible.

There's a thesaurus in the library. Yeah is under "Y". Go ahead, I'll wait.

Alan Covert isn't in You Don't Mess With The Zohan?

Not even an uncredited cameo? You know this?!?

You have already seen it?!?

Is it good? How have you seen it? It doesn't come out for a couple more months here in The United States.
