Sandler's people

So The Longest Yard is on track for $125 million in three weeks. Good, good. Count that as a success. But come on, Adam. You can afford to write a decent script, and Punch Drunk Love, among other things, shows you're interested.

LAGuy notes: The flyovers may have bad taste, but they're not stupid. When they smell a non-Adam Sandler film starring Adam Sandler (e.g., Punch Drink Love or Spanglish) they stay away. Actors try to expand from their original base, but very few get to be Tom Hanks.

Columbus Guy ripostes: They don't have to make it Spanglish or Punch Drunk Love. They just have to introduce a bit of quality. We flyover folk will still like it, as long as he keesp Rob Schneider.
