Will Adam Sandler be working in 10 years? Yes or No?

mikejet · 02-06-2009, 06:20 PM

Yes as a heavy drama actor.

Blu-ray Fanatic · 02-06-2009, 06:21 PM

Why do you ask? I hope he's still working in 10 years

Sushisake · 02-06-2009, 06:24 PM

It's a wonder he is even working now ---- his best work was on SNL

uziel5000 · 02-06-2009, 06:25 PM

Adam Sandler is going to win an Oscar before it's all over I kid you not. One of these days he's going to land a role that is going to allow him to play all his strenghts(however little they may be). He's already been close, (Punch Drunk Love, Reign Over Me) you wait and see. lol

I miss Canteen Boy. The skit with Alec Baldwin was pure win.

Back when SNL was watchable.

I hope Adam Sandler is working in 10 years. His best years are behind him sure but his movies do still make me laugh (Bedtime Stories really surprised me, very good family movie) and I would like to see him keep trying his hand in dramatic roles because say what you will, if you have ever seen Reign Over Me or Punch Drunk Love, you know he can act.

He will always be a favourite of mine considering I worshiped Billy Madison and Happy Gimore when I was a kid and still today, love those two movies to death.

Long live The Sandman

What's with the Micky Rourke option?

Variable · 02-06-2009, 06:47 PM

why wouldn't he be working? studios stop wanting to make money?

FIDDYPOP · 02-06-2009, 06:50 PM

Adam Sandler movies are a hit or miss, so he will prob be working.

assydingo · 02-06-2009, 06:52 PM

I voted Mickey Rourke.

STARSCREAM · 02-06-2009, 08:49 PM

He will still be working, if not acting then he has his Happy Madison productions that I'm sure will continue to make movies.

I think he meant like Rourke, he will go away for a while but make a comeback.

I don't mean to be overly harsh but I find him to be by far one of the worse actors around at the moment. But he will be around in ten years as he brings in the audience (I still can't fathom why).

ifuwereahotdog · 02-06-2009, 09:45 PM

Adam Sandler doesn't just act, he produces too. Yes he will be working in 10 years.

masob98 · 02-06-2009, 09:50 PM

I think he has definately shown his capabilities as an actor (Reign Over Me), but he does definately have this goofball stereotype raining over him, no pun intended. I love most of his movies, except for Little Nicky and Dont mess with the Zohan. But yeah he will be around in 10 years.

neos_peace · 02-06-2009, 10:19 PM

When I first noticed Adm S. I was so not impressed with him. I just did'nt get him and had no desire to. Happy Gilmore, Billy Madison, etc I thougth were a joke. My first good impression of him was in Mr. Deed's since then I have been very impressed in his work. I really lie his charachter in 50 first dates, just a total chage of attitiude. And I really want to see Bedtime stories. The last few movies he has done (CLICK, I forgot about that one he rocks in that. Lucky bastard got with Kate B.) Were remarkable. So if he keeps up his current stride. YES he will still be working if not in front of the camera but at least diffently behind it. (directing, or producing or even both)

Blu Man · 02-06-2009, 10:21 PM

Maybe doing little stuff. Happy Gilmore and Billy Madison are his 2 best movies.
