Don't get me wrong, I love Adam Sandler..........in MOST of his stuff and I think most people probably get a chuckle from time to time when watching him BUT, this is overkill.

I agree and I'm so tired of seeing the same Adam Sandler friends in all of his movies. Adam Sandler has never really been funny from Saturday Night Live to Grown Ups 2. I get a chuckle too, but 1-2 chuckles does not amount to a good movie and reason for me to watch.
This is an interesting new angle for making video available to everyone. I hope it succeeds and will be watching how it progresses.
Adam Sandler is an amazing person who's heart is bigger than his budget. Both he and Netflix can be considered pioneers with this new approach.
Adam sandler gets like $20 million or sometimes like $30 million per film. Him & people like jim carrey was once big mega movie stars. I think they even cut jim checks back from the $20 mill he usually gets. I forgot eddie murphy gets like $20 mill per film for like the last 15 years. Netflix made a good deal , because adam sandler still is a big box office draw. If your into money ,At this point These comedians are allready worth like 2-300 million or more.
