I'm not sure if this is sad on my part because of bad taste, but I actually like some of Adam Sandler's newer stuff. Yeah, some of his earlier works were stupid, like Little Nicky and Zohan, but others were actually funny.

I have to admit, I'm one of them.

Happy Gilmore and Mr. Deeds are among two of my favorites of his.

I dislike Adam Sandler and refuse to watch any thing he is in.

You must have watched something of his in order to know that you dislike him.

Then it sounds like a great movie experience to me.

I was in Milwaukee for training on a certain brand of Building Access Control systems and had already become friends with the main tech support lead as I had beta installed the hardware. We went out with a little hibachi and a couple cases of beer. I have no idea what two movies we watched, nor do I recall the next day's training. Luckily I already actually knew the subject.
