Why did the 2019 movie Uncut Gems resonate so much with left twitter and chapo? I remember everyone losing their shit when that came out.

    I don't care what anyone says, you can't convince me to watch an Adam Sandler film. I've seen two crud films of his and an untold amount of cringy trailers.

    It's before my time but the era of SNL that spat out Sandler, Schneider, and Spade just makes you wonder how such unfunny, uncharismatic doofuses kept making money for 30 years.

          Spanglish was a very meh movie. I liked it but I wouldn't go out of my way to watch it again ever.

          Adam Sandler gets way too much credit for playing a normal person instead of an Adam Sandler character.

          He is good in Uncut Gems though. And I haven't seen meyerowitz stories yet but I heard it's decent.

      Some of the genuinely funny ones like Chris Farley and Phil Hartman died. :/

        This is true. Loved Phil Hartman on the Simpsons and NewsRadio.
