Ah, the classic "The only things I know about America are things I read in curated internet feeds" delusion.
Hundreds of millions of people, living close to a trillion hours of life every year.
Don't let curated feeds turn you into a complete idiot.
One story of one dumbass, or even 10,000 stories about 10,000 dumbasses is a completely worthless way to analyze anything. You'll only move further from the truth as you slurp down more of the curated craziness.
You're living proof that your country has dumb people in it too.

Reply to comment by BababooeyHTJ in Tesla Model Y Was Europe's Best-Selling Car Overall In November by poke133
I have to imagine that part of it is the fact that Tesla has so few models.
Since other manufacturers have what, 10, 15 different models to choose from, they could sell 10x as many cars, but the model Y could still be the bestseller.
If someone wants to buy a Tesla, they get the Model Y.

Obviously meant "did minimal damage to a car given the fact that he lifted it with an excavator"
That guy was one of the construction workers, and if he's saying our hero did minimal damage to the car while lifting it with the excavator he could very well be right.

I agree. Also Sandler's goofy shtick doesn't work well with dark themes. A different actor/writer could have done it justice.
The movie would work much better as a dark comedy, but Sandler doesn't really do those. Also think the movie would have been much more effective at the message if they didn't end up taking it all back in the end- like if I'm remembering correctly he ends up going back in time and gets to fix all his mistakes, completely defeating the purpose of the message in the first place.

Sorry To Bother You was a movie that did both, I would call it a dark comedy. Really depends on what message and how cliche it is.
"You never get wasted time back" is about as cliche as it gets.

Sandler's work is nothing like family guy! I'm not a huge fan by any account- but that's a low blow. Family guy is practically all references and flashbacks.
Sandler's movies are at least coherent.

Happy Gilmore and Billy Madison are classics, Sandler also was amazing on Saturday Night Live. The dude is legitimately a comedy great.
I prefer comics like George Carlin with some edge to them, but Sandler's goofiness is a purer form of comedy in my eyes.
The movies Click and Spanglish were two of the worst movies I've ever seen, but I don't think you should count the flops against people. Comedy is a genre full of flops, it's really hard to tell which movies are going to be classics until the decades go by.
I don't think anyone making Tommy Boy thought "this is going to be one of the best comedy movies of all time."
