WOW. This was triumphant! Safdie's direction added an anti-comedy twist that I found extremely compelling. Sandler's jokes and songs vary from laugh out to loud to completely cringe-worthy, but it all worked for me! Even the raunch and moments that veer close to the more typical annoyances of married life from someone his age. You can tell he's got so much love for his people, his family, and his work, and that makes all the difference. I found the ending ode to Comedy to make this a companion special to 100% Fresh but in a way that was still totally fresh. (Someone, who shall not be named here, should've just had a career as an Elvis impersonator).

Adam Sandler: Love You (2024) review
Feel like I am the last person on Earth to discover that Adam Sandler can play guitar, and play it WELL!! Brother has skills!
Synopsis: Adam Sandler hits the stage for a thrillingly unpredictable comedy special featuring songs, jokes, party-crashing dogs and plenty of love.
I don’t tend to review stand-up specials/shows on here, as I prefer talking about film and on occasion TV shows. However with Adam Sandler’s new Netflix special Love You, this one happens to be an odd munchkin among the crowd. You see this special mixes in cinematic tropes and techniques to deliver a unique and different experience. Directed by Josh Safdie, who previously worked with Sandler in the stressful and frenetic Uncut Gems, and essentially that style is incorporated into this special. For the comedy club where Sandler is performing is not a real one, but in fact a built set that imitates in Safdie’s own words “the worst venue ever”.
Through the course of Sandler’s bits, Safdie would consistently utilise the set to cause various distractions and things going wrong like having a hole on stage, or a random dog crash the set, and then having Sandler react to it all with his regular improv sarcastic way. Of course this being Safdie he also films the whole thing super claustrophobic and up-close, creating that sense of unease, which I found to be a wonderful experimental way of delivering this special. Because when a comic is on stage, everything is under his/her control. That is the unwritten rule. Everything has to work perfectly to ensure that the jokes play out exactly as they intended them to. So Safdie/Sandler essentially are breaking all the rules here, taking that control aspect away from the comic. It’s an interesting experiment, and one that I found vigorously entertaining.
As for the stand-up show itself, it’s really funny. What I like about Adam Sandler’s comedic style on stage is that he is a storyteller. He isn’t simply building up to a single punch line. The entire bit is a punchline that consistently keeps on giving. Even the more vulgar stuff (Sandler seems to really like discussing penises and whacking off) didn’t seem like cheap low brow humour, but instead felt earned, as the way he told the story, the whole thing came together really well. I particularly enjoyed the gags about the balloon, genie and word spellings, but in all honestly 90% of the jokes hit the mark. This all is also accompanied by Sandler playing various guitars in different styles and singing silly songs, and look, your entertainment value of this thing is based sorely on how much you find the Sandman funny. Of course Safdie’s filmmaking tricks are a nice addition, but this is Sandler’s show through and through and the fella owns it.
Evidently you can tell Adam Sandler is getting more sentimental with age, as his special ends with him playing a song showcasing his respect for other comedians in history who share in his craft, with a montage in the background playing clips of the famous comics, which was a true love letter to the art of comedy, that is sure to put a smile on your face. Was it a bit on the nose and out of place? Maybe. Was the part where Rob Schneider popped up as Elvis for absolutely no reason necessary and the worst part of the special? Quite likely. But Adam Sandler you love us, and we love you. Keep being a funny guy!
Overall score: 8/10

My favorite thing about Annabeth is her wardrobe.
Cause like, Rick simplifies her clothes in a way a man would, and you can tell.
Cause in EVERY book, from The Lightning Thief to Chalice, she’s in the goddamn CHB shirt. With like some shorts or cargo pants. Nothing more, nothing less.
He’s made improvements over the years, giving her some other clothes. But he’ll always come back to old faithful.
Like, he most definitely did it on accident, but he made her so Adam Sandler and I love it
#and she def walks around in basketball shorts and a wife beater#+ the fact that she probably steals Percy’s clothes#like don’t get me wrong she looks awesome#I just think it’s funny#and with Rick’s books you can tell by the fashion that it’s a man writing#AND SHES THE ONLY ONE#besides Jason#Jason also only wears his purple t-shirt#I’m pretty sure he died in it#but everyone else has a sense of fashion#even if it’s a little bit#I love her#she’s so Adam Sandler coded#percy jackon and the olympians#pjo series#pjo hoo toa#pjo tv show#heroes of olympus#pjo#percy jackson#annabeth chase

Serendipity should be required viewing material before anyone tries to analyze Homestuck; not only is John Cusack a universal constant, but the themes and vibes of Serendipity are so fundamentally woven into Homestuck's DNA that several of Serendipity's thesises and conversations could be lifted directly from one to the other.
In particular, the way Serendipity utilizes coincidence and circumstantially simultaneous events in order to suggest - nay, decree - that the two leads belong together, is highly reminiscent of the way Hussie uses foreshadowing, and not just for romantic couples. It's also a major window into the ultimate stance Homestuck takes with regard to romance, fate, and destiny, and also more specifically, a really good look at Karkat's own personal philosophies of romance. There's a running theme in his movies of meeting someone that perfectly matches your freak, someone you don't ever need to compromise yourself around, who brings out the best in you.
Also, some of yall need to watch a shitty romcom every once in a while and develop some emotions
#I'm genuinely not joking#if you want to understand Karkat and Homestuck better you need to watch Serendipity#at the very least so you can understand what the comic means by soul mates#i mean it's literally NAMEDROPPED during the troll romance section as the ultimate expression of finding your soul mates in every quad#people literally will be like 'i like karkat' and not watch serendipity smh#anyway the karkat movie list is serendipity • hitch • 50 first dates#he calls serendipity and hitch specifically 'pure magic' and yes. yeah.#i know we all love to clown on karkat's love of embarrassing romcoms and we're right to do so it's hilarious#but hussie also unironically calls it the best character trait he gave karkat and hes soooo correct about that#and you can tell from the way serendipity and even 50 first dates are described that those are kind of hussies genuine feelings toward them#hes right 50 first dates DOESN'T make you want to punch adam sandler#despite the occassional uncomfortable lowbrow comedy segment everything about the romance is played so straight and so genuine#maybe this shitty adam sandler romcom made me cry maybe im man enough to admit it#and idrk how else to describe serendipity besides 'pure magic'#tbh just watch it for yourself#homestuck is like 30% serendipity by volume

i think some f!rcille fans need to accept marcille has bad taste and her being with falin won't really change that lol
#“yeah marcille hates it when falin dresses like a butch but when falin wears the right butch outfit then she'll change her mind!”#no she won't lol#falin dresses like adam sandler and you know what? good for her#she loves her baggy and comfortable clothes#marcille will always be a bitch about it tho lol#gothie's opinions

i think its so funny when someone say they like a movie but can't defend it saying i like it but i know its bad i mean then you dont like it lmao ??
#its ok to like something the majority of people or the critics dont#people feel bad for liking something that is like 2.5 on letterboxd and 40% on rotten#but its YOUR taste you shouldn't compare w everyone elses#its youuu if you love dumb marvel movies and adam sandler comedies go for it#the first three fast and furious movie mean sooo much to me and i will defend them as my life depend on it#some films everyone loves i dont like and some people hate i love so its all about youuu#and your vision and what makes a good movie to YOU#if its just well it distracted me it got my attention thats all you need#if you're more critical and consider every aspect of the film fine too#to me if the film is pretty but kinda boring i already love it cause the visual means soo much to me#i mean if nothings happening but it's a pretty film that's all i need#also when it isnt the most beautiful visually film ive ever seen but the text is so good i will also fall for it#it really depends lol there isnt a formula#maybe the film is visually perfect and i still don't like it

I will never understand why everyone in canon calls Izuku plain. Never. He can be goofy-looking sometimes, sure, but so can everyone else. Look at him:
He’s gorgeous. People would kill for those huge eyes, and his lashes? Plus the freckles and curly hair? This kid is anything but plain?????
#izuku midoriya#mha#mha rewatch#literally anytime the show focuses close up on his face I have to take a moment to find my train of thought again#his eyes are just so pretty#also#I have long thought Izuku is a perfect physical complement to Katsuki too#I told you bkdk was gonna be 97% of this rewatch#but they are both insanely pretty boys in different ways#I also love that Izuku has this childlike face coupled with those gigantic hands and the Adam Sandler wardrobe#personal headcanon that Izuku has been bullied into makeovers by the girls of 1A#just because his eyes with some liner and mascara would make any human jealous#all the girls want to be him and all the boys want him#that���s how the saying goes right 😘#lol I didn’t make it far before fixating on how pretty this boy is but like#literally every time I watch I think it some more

story time
so last night my boyfriend and i were playing this get to know you card game and one question was who would be your celebrity pass.
mine was of COURSE young adam sandler it will always be adam sandler I’m sorry, but it’s the truth and he knows it.
anyways then he proceeds to think very hard about the question. he’s visibly nervous to tell me, this boy is shaking in his boots just twiddling his thumbs while I give him a death stare…….. tell me why he blurts out ICE SPICE.
now mind you, I love miss icy girl. ice spice is my GIRL. and I cannot say that if I had the opportunity I wouldn’t also like to kiss her ya know a little 😘
however, thinking that my boyfriend also thinks that way is not so pleasant.
so now I’m angry. my chest is tight and all I can think about is how hot ice spice is and how I DO NOT LOOK ANYTHING LIKE HER
he sees me getting visibly upset he says well hold on now- you wouldn’t just vibe with adam sandler you’d make love to him.
so I started smiling bc well yes, he’s so right. I cannot disagree that if adam sandler got on one knee, I would say yes to that big question. I’m in indeed actually very confident the answer would be yes.
ANYWAYS if you’ve read this far and you’re also delusional like I am I’m sure you can picture my (not so fair) anger.
moral of the story now I will never be able to listen to in ha mood or bikini bottom again without thinking how my boyfriend has a big fat ultimate soul sucking crush on ice spice.
the worse part is I can’t even be mad he looks the complete opposite of mr. sandler I’m talking brown skin brown eyes 4c hair different.
thank you for reading and if you have any thing to say please feel free comment your opinions on this VERY serious topic. 🙄
#story time#I love adam sandler#In a weird way this is a very healthy relationship I promise#death upon mrs spice#jk I love you icy#help????#delusional#like grah 😞#we’ve been together for 2 years#i think he’s my husband
