How Rotten Is Jack and Jill? Adam Sandler Flick Hits All-Time-Low Rating!
It's not even Thanksgiving but we've already got a turkey, folks.
If you thought Click or Little Nicky was an awful addition to the Adam Sandler oeuvre, Jack and Jill, is fast on its way to topping those films in the bad department as his new cross-dressing comedy has scored the dubious 0 percent fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
At this rate, a Razzies sweep can't be far behind.
Movie Review: Jack & Jill Isn't the Worst Film of the Year...but It's One of the Worst
Review in a Hurry: Adam Sandler once again takes the low road to laughs by playing identical twins: One's a dude and the other looks like a dude in bad drag. It plays out as lame as you might think with the dude version being Sandler in "angry" mode and the sister nothing more than a collection of obnoxious traits.
If not for a few sorta funny scenes with Al Pacino (playing himself), this would be the worst film of the year. As it is, it's merely one of the worst films of the year...so hooray for that.
Frances Bay, Adam Sandler's Happy Gilmore Grandma, Dies at 92
Frances Bay, who made fans of all ages laugh with quirky roles as Adam Sandler's grandma in Happy Gilmore and the woman whom Jerry stole a marble rye from on Seinfeld, died Thursday at a Tarzana hospital, according to the Los Angeles Times. She was 92 and had been ill with various infections, according to a family member.
The Canadian actress, born Frances Goffman, spent much of her life at home being a housewife, until her dream of being in the spotlight came true in her mid-fifties.
Who Tops the Charts as Hollywood's Richest Actor?
In Hollywood, you always have to expect the unexpected.
An A-list celebrity could become a nobody in a year, and that nobody from a year ago could be the coolest thing since sliced bread now (funny how that works). But the guys who stick around and make a name for themselves rack in some major millions.
Forbes has released their list of the five highest-paid actors in the past year. Can you guess who made the cut?
Not Even Al Pacino and Katie Holmes Can Save Adam Sandler's Jack and Jill
Let's just start at the beginning with this one. Adam Sandler's doing double duty in his latest comedy, Jack and Jill, playing himself (although he's going by the name Jack here) and his annoying, obnoxious twin sister from the Bronx, Jill. Yes, Sandler is now going to the let's-dress-me-up-as-a-woman well for his laughs, and he somehow convinced Katie Holmes and Al Pacino to come along with him.
So is it working? Check out the newest trailer.
Vampire Feud Alert: Robert Pattinson vs... Adam Sandler?!
We'll get to why in the world Kevin James is saying Adam Sandler is hotter than Robert Pattinson in a minute.
But first, which one of James' recent big screen costars actually—get this!—urinated on the former King of Queens funnyguy?!
Movie Review: Zookeeper Should Be Considered Cruelty to Audiences
Review in a Hurry: Kevin James goes from mall cop to zoo dude, but the results are just as disappointing. He's a guy in love with a gal who's not worth his time, but he has a posse full of animals that can actually speak voiced by Sylvester Stallone and Cher among others. And they're all ready to help him woo his mate.
Little kids might love the critters, but adults will have a hard time caring about the disjointed plot. No one will dig the long running time. How many poop jokes from an Adam Sandler monkey does one film need?
Could Vanilla Ice's Next Big Break Be in an Adam Sandler Comedy?
Adam Sandler has been gearin' up for his new upcoming comedy I Hate You Dad, and it looks like he's cast 90's rapper Vanilla Ice AKA Robert Van Winkle!
After having a one-hit wonder and dealing with domestic violence charges which were subsequently dropped, we're pretty sure Winkle's hoping this movie gets him back into the limelight.
And don't worry, he won't be portraying a rapper...
Adam Sandler Tweeted to Death...Again
Guess this means Just Go With It 2 could still happen.
Despite tweets to to the contrary, Adam Sandler is not dead. In the latest celebrity death hoax spread via a certain micro-blogging medium, the actor was said to have been killed in a snowboarding accident in Switzerland. Trouble is, this is the same that Sandler's rep debunked again—and wasn't too excited that it resurfaced.
"It's old, from December," the publicist tells E! News. "Not worth a comment."
Sandler is/was part of an exalted group of celebs who've been rumored falsely of having died, including Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber, Taylor Lautner, Matt Damon and even Jeff Goldblum. Even the method isn't unique, as snowboarding mishaps have been the cause of the fake deaths of Jim Carrey, Eddie Murphy and—as if—Charlie Sheen.
We'd suggest the pranksters start acting like grown-ups, but we suspect they'd think we meant the guys in Sandler's Grown-Ups. In which case, they're probably fine.
Bitch-Back! Michael Vick Comes Face-to-Face With Oprah
Dear Ted:
I just heard the news that Oprah is interviewing Michael Vick. Please tell me this won't be powder puff lovefest. Oprah will see through him, right? She's a huge animal lover. She's going to expose him for the big fake he is right?
—holding out hope
Dear Hoping:
Your hoping is as good as mine. Animal lover to animal lover, I don't support any of the whitewashed publicity the unreformed (I believe) Vick's getting, including the recent honor he received from my hometown. The talk-show host's interview with the returning QB is set to air on Feb. 24 and is supposed to cover topics ranging from his time in prison, work with the Humane Society to football of course. I trust Oprah will give him a piece of her mind, as she usually does. But don't forget the last time Ms. O raked a liar over the coals: A Million Little Pieces author James Frey. She later called him up to apologize. As if!
Dear Ted:
Please tell me what really happened at the Grammys. Why is the Glee cast mad at Lea Michele? It is her 'tude? Is it something else?
—Nikki
