i agree...they couldn't carry the shoes of the likes of people like jack benny.
i suspect these guys were bankrolled initially by rich relatives because they were probably sometimes pretty funny as standups. i think i heard some excerpts of a sandler concert where we was funny a few times. but it doesn't translate to the screen.
chevy chase's lead movies if you actually go back and try to figure out the humor, there is none, (he was in caddy shack, funny despite him) are blatantly anti-christian...
if you don't believe me, and if you can stomach it watch the Griswald's Christmas vacation. He defames the cruicifixion for cheap laughs just about any chance he can.
Since we're at it, anyone out there who actually thinks Rick Springsteen is nothing more than second rate singer?

...Careful, you may start the fourth world war with that one (Smile). And if I may correct you, it's Bruce.

I've never heard of Rick Springsteen.
I have heard of Bruce Springsteen, who sucks.
I have also heard of Rick Springfield, who used to suck but hasn't done an album in about 20 years so he might not suck anymore.
Actually, Chevy Chase was the only part of "Caddyshack" that wasn't really funny. The last funny thing he did was "Weekend Update" on SNL with "Francisco Franco is still dead..." Actually, Saturday Night Live didn't really get funny till he left and they brought in Bill Murray to take his place.
Give Adam Sandler credit for having an occasional funny moment now and then to mix with his purely sophomoric behavior.
