    Sandler’s goofy, weird speaking & mannerisms worked when he was 20. They don’t work now that he’s an aging middle aged man. He just seems… Idk man, I don’t have a better word for it. He just seems retarded.

    Don’t do this, Netflix. Happy Gilmore is sacred ground.

        True, but that wasn’t made 30 years later. The era and age in which Sandler’s material worked is long gone.

        While true, there’s very very few that were good when made decades after the last one.

      In actuality - Adam Sandler needs $XX Million dollars because Netflix has poor taste in talent and would be willing to sacrifice at least 20 shows to be pulled from it’s cycle to make this work.

    If he takes on the Carl Weathers role and let’s Pete Davidson be the young golfer then it could be good?
