Since the deadline was in March of 2005, step one is to get a time machine.

Or a universal remote.

Huh. That was Roger E’s opinion in a nutshell.

So far, no one has spoken the three words which makes this movie a must see…

Maybe I wasn’t paying enough attention to the previews, but I was shocked by how depressing the film turned. Not depressing in a subtle way, of course-- very manipulative-- but manipulative is called manipulative because it succeeds at manipulating. The bait-and-switch was very surprising for me. In fact, the second half of the movie was so crushingly heavy that I was actually _glad_ for the

usually aggravating “it was all just a dream!”

The distaste of Sandler cancels out the appeal of Walken, with some to spare. I’ll wait for this on cable.

I was wondering if I was the only guy here who thought of that.

David Hasselhoff gets repeatedly punched in the face, thus picking up the spare.

Yet it’s long enough to post about them on SDMB? Heh. 😛

I don’t think I’ll be seeing this one even once it’s on DVD either. It’s not that I **hate** Adam Sandler or anything, but… after seeing _Big Daddy_ in theaters, I’ve kind of avoided his films. Though I will still watch a few minutes of _Billy Madison_ or _The Wedding Singer_ when they come on telly.

Why doesn’t he have starring roles anymore? I miss him. ☹

(fake edit)

I just remembered. I liked _Mr. Deeds_. I never saw it in theaters, but we own it on DVD and I don’t regret it.

I saw it this weekend, liked it but didn’t love it. It sounds like most of the posters here didn’t see it, so posting details about my experience wouldn’t really connect. I’ll just say it was in the same vein, but not quite as good as 50 First Dates or the wedding singer. Watch it on HBO or something.
