Didn't know about the ridiculous six controversy.

who knew you couldnt make f-troop level jokes in 2015? i wasnt aware of the "controversy." 

i mostly avoided the sandler comedies like the plague. i was just old enough for them not to be essential outside of bro culture which was vast. i think they were formative for the next gen of teen boys growing up in the 90s.

he also starred in the apatow movie, funny people, as essentially a version of himself with the mask removed. wasnt terrible. meanwhile apatow seems to only make documentaries about his comedy heroes now though im sure he is producing things as well. he and sandler were roommates before either was famous. pre-snl.
