IMO, Will Ferrell is hilarious in 1 minute increments. He could make a good living on movie cameos....come in, steal a scene or two, then leave.

That's about it. Jack Black and Adam Sandler have the same affliction. Whoever thought any of these three could routinely carry a movie, is a fool.

I’d agree with the assessment of Ferrell and Black, Sandler not so much, its not a comedy, but I would suggest watching Spanglish.... Sandler has talent, though it may not always be at comedy.

Like you, I can’t figure out why people think Adam Sandler is funny.

Yes, such as “Austin Powers.” I thought the title sequence of Anchorman was funny, when he is sitting at the desk, “I love scotch! Scotch scotch scotch. Down into my belly...” I never really “got” Adam Sandler when he was on SNL, or his movies until I was “forced” to watch “Happy Gilmore.” Funny movie...

Yes - he was funny in Wedding Crashers, for example, but that's about as much as one can take of him.

Why, then, are none of his Dodge commercials remotely funny?
