I Won't Mess With This Movie by Mullah Omar	Feb 13th, 2008 01:13:32 AM
Because Adam Sandler films do not even slightly interest me.
"If you like Adam Sandler and racist jokes..." by Kurutteru Yatsu	Feb 13th, 2008 01:14:35 AM
Way to sell the concept. I can't wait to run to my nearest multiplex now.
So, what the fuck is a "Zohan"? by Preacher_mg	Feb 13th, 2008 01:17:00 AM
I'm israeli and there's no such name as "Zohan" here. I don't mind racist humor even if it's pointed at insraelis such as myself, and I'd go see the movie if it were as funny as, say, The Hebrew Hammer, but having Rob Schneider in it is an indication it isn't even that.
Sandler bad, Turturro good. by leobloom	Feb 13th, 2008 01:17:48 AM
But Sandler's probably worse than Tuturro is good.

There's guy called Osama bin Laden, you may have heard of him....
If you enjoy this, you have a flaw in your character by IndustryKiller!	Feb 13th, 2008 01:20:16 AM
And it has nothing to do with any perceived racism or material I might find offensive, it has everything to do with the fact that you are an easily entertained simpleton. What kind of fucking moron thinks this has any redeeming comedic value? Seriously, how fucking stupid do you have to be to find anything in the trailer, or hell anything Adam Sandler has done in ten years, funny? What kind of cro-magnon joke of a human being?
Is Turturro even in this? P.S. Trailer looks like shit by leobloom	Feb 13th, 2008 01:25:40 AM
I didnt seem Turturro listed on the cast on imdb. And anything with Rob Schneider is guaranteed to suck a fat one. Whose dick is that guy sucking to get roles? Must be Sandler's.
"Click" was fucking unbearable. by Kid Idioteque	Feb 13th, 2008 01:27:24 AM
And that's saying a lot compared to Sandler's other films. I probably won't see thiss. I love how this guy keeps apologizing for laughing. It's OK, dude. Harry (and others) just have sticks up their asses about this kind of stuff. But I'm still not gonna see this. Or maybe I will, now that I think about it.
Zohander by beetlegeuse	Feb 13th, 2008 01:28:29 AM
Looks like Sandler saw Zoolander and said "I can do that"
Anchorman was "funny"? by Pops Freshemeyer	Feb 13th, 2008 01:32:39 AM

borat anyone? by frank2pointfive	Feb 13th, 2008 02:05:59 AM
the review reminds me of borat. as did sandler's fake accent. am i the only one?
Just based on the preview, I can't WAIT to see this... by TheGhostWhoLurks	Feb 13th, 2008 02:12:33 AM
Don't Mess With The Zohan was one of the FUNNIEST previews I'd ever seen in the theatre. I had NO idea what it was, I generally DON'T like Adam Sandler films, but I honestly couldn't stop laughing when this thing popped up on the screen! It looks great! :D Ironically, they showed this right before screening The Kite Runner (which was even better than the previews)...
Ugh by haggardatbest	Feb 13th, 2008 02:36:26 AM
I will never. Ever. EVER. see this movie.
I hear Rob Schneider has a cameo as a wacky suicide bomber by The Grey Ghost	Feb 13th, 2008 03:12:56 AM
It's great to see Adam Sandler bringing the magic of World War II propaganda films into the 21st century.
Sandler's best film remains to be.. by Hideo Kojima	Feb 13th, 2008 04:12:39 AM
Little Nicky. Yeah. I said it.

Schneider as suicide bomber would rule... by Pops Freshemeyer	Feb 13th, 2008 04:53:41 AM
As long as it leads to him, in real life, accidentally getting on a plane to Syria where he can pay for his crimes against humanity -- like every un-fucking-funny movie the guy has ever been in. If there's a celebrity other than Paris Hilton that I'd pay to watch die on PPV, it would be Rob Schneider...or Andy Dick. And Johnny Fairplay.
You can tell it will be shit by kuryakin	Feb 13th, 2008 04:58:03 AM
Because the poster has the name of the movie in red block capitals. Seriously, it's like graphic designers are giving us a message - Alright, I'll make up a poster but I'm putting the name of your movie in red block capitals so everyone knows how shit it will be. See for reference Norbit, Scary Movie, any comedy with Robin WIlliams, the list goes fucking on....
I didn't need to see the poster to know it would suck. by Pops Freshemeyer	Feb 13th, 2008 05:27:23 AM
I just had to read that Rob Schneider was in it. And Robin Williams doesn't always suck...he only sucks 97.5 per cent of the time.
"Rob Schneider, who is usually pretty damn funny" by Mr_Saxon	Feb 13th, 2008 05:35:39 AM
Dude, are the fingers you're typing with connected to your brain or your cock? Time to check the wiring.
"he is a Master of physical comedy" by One-Eyed Willy	Feb 13th, 2008 05:53:31 AM
The three stooges, maybe. Chaplin and Keaton, definitely. Sandler? He has the same 2 line deliveries in every movie; twitchy or sarcastic-falsetto. Don't get me wrong, I can chuckle (at least once) at most Sandler movies, especially his earlier stuff. His "comedies" at this point remind me of those group of actors from college that go on to form a theater company, producing the same second-rate shit for years without growing. With the same damn inside jokes and lack on perspective. I think Sandler does best these days when he steps away from his "college buddies" and does things like Reign Over Me, where a new set of eyes directs. But as far as physical comedy goes, not even on the radar.
To me, the appeal of Adam Sandler is a mystery, like by CreasyBear	Feb 13th, 2008 06:39:52 AM
Stonehenge, or Bigfoot. I love clever comedy, I love stupid comedy like Airplane! and Spinal Tap, but I've found NOTHING in any Adam Sandler movie -- including Happy Gilmore and those other early ones -- that makes me laugh. Like when you see a horrible trailer for something like that Rock NFL adopts a little girl movie, and the whole theater laughs uproariously, and you are feeling like the only sane person in the building.
Okay, Sandler's humor is infantile, but by Grammaton Cleric Binks	Feb 13th, 2008 08:11:34 AM
when I saw the trailer for this a while ago I knew it was a movie I needed to see. I don't like all his movies. I'd say I enjoy about 2/3 of them. It sucks because the one he filmed in my hometown really blew chunks. This is no work of high art here, but if you saw the trailer, you may understand the appeal of this one a little better. Okay, just found it. Here we go. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v =d9jt1OHyagI Don't look for the abbreviated trailer, check out the official one. Then, let the comments good or bad come flying out. By the way Punch Drunk Love sucked.
Rob Schneider is funny in small doses. by Grammaton Cleric Binks	Feb 13th, 2008 08:15:53 AM
I've loved all his cameos in the Sandler movies. In large doses he's just not my thing. Hey Poppin Fresh you're wrong about Williams. He doesn't suck 97.5 percent of the time. He sucks 98 percent of the time. Hey, ever see that character he played where he talks really fast, makes a lot of pop culture references and shakes his arms about while ignoring authority figures?
Ch-Ch-Ch-Chia... PLANT! by juggygales1000	Feb 13th, 2008 08:28:54 AM
Are you kidding me? This is an effin' plant if I ever saw one. This trailer is not funny and this movie looks unwatchable. As far as the cameos go, I'll bet they include David Spade (Surprise!), Kevin Nealon (wow!), one of the leftover Farley brothers (Surprise again!), etc... I might watch this on cable if I see it one night flipping channels in 2009.
Turturro is a friggin chameleon. He's been by Grammaton Cleric Binks	Feb 13th, 2008 08:33:57 AM
nerded up, uglied up, made to look cool, made to took handsome. Acts cool, acts dorky. It all depends on the role. First time I remember seeing him was in Spike's movies. He goes from being this big bad tough Italian in Do the Right Thing, to being this doormat of a guy in Jungle Fever. I was a lot younger, but I couldn't even tell it was the same guy at first. I have no idea why. It wasn't the looks. Maybe it was the shift between the two charactes.
Sandler should stick to producing by slone13	Feb 13th, 2008 09:46:23 AM
Grandma's Boy was quite possibly the funniest movie I've seen in the last decade.
Emmanuelle Chriqui is in this by thebearovingian	Feb 13th, 2008 10:17:46 AM
That will probably get me to see this. Open letter to Emmanuelle Chriqui: I love you...
No plant would EVER call its movie racist by enrique_o_k2000	Feb 13th, 2008 01:25:25 PM
Unless "it's racist but it's good!" is some sort of new viral marketing fad...
I'm an idiot... by mooseaka	Feb 13th, 2008 01:33:55 PM
... because I laughed during the trailer. Multiple times. Particularly during the part with his feet kicking the guy. My biggest complaint was that it seemed like it was an obvious combination/ripoff of Borat (fish out of water - hilarity ensues) and Hot Fuzz (supercop trying to adjust to simpler lifestyle, but then ends up having to be supercop after all). I haven't really liked any Sandler movies since Happy and Madison, but I'm going to give this a shot.
Emmanuelle Chriqui? Forget what I said. by Pops Freshemeyer	Feb 13th, 2008 01:56:36 PM
This movie is going to be awesome. And Grandma's Boy was pretty awesome. Oh yeah, GC Binks, I'll admit, the 98 per cent figure is probably more accurate.
Anchorman was crap by Newmark	Feb 13th, 2008 02:26:51 PM
One of the worst movies I've seen. I don't remember laughing even once. I guess people find stupidity funny, that's why movies with plain stupid characters are passed as comedies.
You're right mooseaka by IndustryKiller!	Feb 13th, 2008 05:11:12 PM
You are an idiot in that case....just sayin'.
I Thought This Came Out Last Summer... by El Fuego	Feb 13th, 2008 07:47:43 PM
wasn't that the one where Sandler did all the gay shit? I could've sworn the dude from King of Queens was in it as well, but I didn't see him in this particular trailer. Yeah, kidding aside, this looks like a turd. The feet thing was kinda funny, but being a flamboyant haircutter in and of itself isn't especially funny. If it's got Turturro, it's got a chance... but based on that trailer and the superbowl spot... I'm going to avoid this like the plague.
Whatever you think by Series7	Feb 14th, 2008 01:36:24 AM
I loved Little Nicky and this looks like the closet Sandler movie to compare it too. At least when Sandler tries some dumb idea he goes all the way with it. I perfer those movies to his cool guys shtick like in the Burt Reynolds remake/Big Daddy/Larry and Chuckles.
cant wait by slkboxrman	Feb 14th, 2008 02:49:22 AM
i have not seen one adam sandler comedy i didnt like...all hillarious...cant wait.....racist jokes ? who cares ? how many racist jokes about white people are in almost every black comedy, just an example....should be quite good, and i loved the trailer.
lol by slkboxrman	Feb 14th, 2008 02:52:10 AM
i think AICN is industrykillers myspace...he cant seem to leave and is always posting....and suprisingly its always negative.
Sandler running out of ideas and has to rip off Borat, now? by Lemming	Feb 14th, 2008 04:09:35 AM
.
Derp dee derp, Rob Schneider is....a stapler. by Mr Spork	Feb 14th, 2008 05:45:51 AM
