The headline here is they still consider Adam Sandler movies to constitute “comedy”.

Well, to me that pretty much sums up any Adam Sandler movie. There really isn’t much funny about him unless you’re into buffoons.

That is the worst thing about Sandler movies. It’s not that they’re crude, vulgar, and offend people. It’s that they’re not funny. That’s the ultimate crime for any “comedy.”

Adam Sandler has made about 50 movies in which he plays an overgrown kid. I think it is a formula that works for this particular actor.

I say these folks graduated from the Democrat’s Whiner School™, where everybody learns to manipulate public opinion through made-up offenses. Recent graduating classes include blacktivists, progressive college faculty and students, educators, fags, feminists, muslims, environmentalists, communists and, of course, all media.

"“I talked to a former instructor at Dartmouth and he told me to take this as finally experiencing stereotyping first hand."

So she reached adulthood in this bigoted, racist, white patriarchal society before she finally experienced stereotyping firsthand?

Reminds me of the Italians complaining about Mafia movies.

I don't think that Gunsmoke used actual Native Americans to play Native Americans.

This One seemed to be a logical choice.

I believe I've identified the problem.......Academia strike again.

Things came to a head when one of the producers told one of the actors, “If you guys are so sensitive, you should leave.” [emphasis added]

Even the left is getting sick of the left.

What were they expecting? A “sacred” Adam Sandler comedy?

“There is humor, and then there is humor. Personally, I don’t think Adam Sandler is funny, nor do I like any of his movies.”


I don’t think the point is weather or not you like Adam Sandler movies. Actually, I don’t think Adam Sandler has anything to do with the entire article.

I am about 30% Inuit and MiQ’Maw Indian, married to a Jew, and I still crack up at the picture of Mel Brooks with the Hebrew Characters on his War Bonnet.

And all these new Age idjits with their dream-catchers, when only one tribe (The Ojibwa) actually believed in them.

Ha Ha Ha.

It’s like...My Dear Brothers and Sisters...Get a LIFE! In the old days, Hollywood used Jewish and Italian Actors to play Indians, and who can forget John Wayne as GhenJis Khan! LOL!

Why would anyone want to hire Native Actors, if they walk off the set at the slightest perceived insult.

Hattie McDaniel was asked if she were embarrassed to play “Mammy” in Gone With The Wind.

She replied that she would rather get an Oscar for PLAYING a slave than to BE a slave.

hahaha
