    Lost & Found Might Be the Most Forgettable Movie of 1999

    🚨You can now watch a video version of our podcast on our YouTube channel🚨

    In this episode of Adam Sandler Film School, Robert Bacon, Marie Maloney, and Caleb George take a look at Lost & Found (1999), the forgotten David Spade romantic comedy co-starring Sophie Marceau. Released during the legendary movie year of 1999, Lost & Found arrived in theaters alongside films like 10 Things I Hate About You, Go, Analyze This, and Life Is Beautiful, making it easy to see how this unusual comedy slipped through the cracks. But does it deserve its reputation, or is there something worth rediscovering?

    The crew breaks down the film's bizarre premise, David Spade's performance as a leading man, the movie's troubled romantic setup, its box office run, and where it fits within the larger universe of Sandler-adjacent comedies. Along the way, they discuss Spade's career after Saturday Night Live, late-1990s comedy trends, memorable scenes, and whether Lost & Found works as either a romantic comedy or a vehicle for one of Adam Sandler's closest comedic collaborators.

    If you enjoy deep dives into Adam Sandler movies, Happy Madison productions, David Spade films, Saturday Night Live alumni, 1990s comedies, movie reviews, movie rankings, and comedy film history, this episode is for you. Adam Sandler Film School explores the movies that helped shape the Sandler cinematic universe, one strange forgotten comedy at a time.

    Sadie Sandler’s Roommates (2026) Review | The Ultimate Nepo Baby Movie?

    🚨You can now watch a video version of our podcast on our YouTube channel🚨

    Welcome to a special Happy Madison Podcast edition of Adam Sandler Please Stop. Today, the full crew of Bacon, Marie Maloney, and Caleb George are back to review Sadie Sandler’s leading turn in the 2026 release, Roommates.

    This episode is all about the "N-word" of Hollywood: Nepotism. We analyze a cast stacked with nepo babies and discuss how Adam Sandler’s production company is the only thing that gets these projects off the ground. We aren't here to bash the talent, but we are asking the real question: Is the next generation of Happy Madison actually ready for the spotlight?

    What’s inside this retrospective:

    Sadie Sandler Analysis: We break down her performance in Roommates and decide if she has the "Sandler Spark."

    The Nepo Baby Cast: Identifying the familiar faces and family ties that fill out this 2026 production.

    The Ethics of Nepotism: A nuanced discussion on why family favors in film aren't always bad, but often come with roles the actors aren't ready for yet.

    A New Direction: Our final verdict on why Sadie Sandler needs to branch out and leave the "Dad-made" movies behind.

    Retrospective Rankings: Where Roommates lands in the ever-growing Happy Madison hall of fame (or shame).

    Feb 6 2026
    For the first time ever Bacon, Marie, and Caleb see a Kevin James movie in theaters and it was opening night! Join as as we talk about Kevin James's vacation in Italy with a group of much better actors. We discuss how funny it is seeing Kevin James on a horse. The shock of seeing Luciano Pavarotti and the joy of Kim Coates performance.

    🎬 PLOT 🎬

    Matt (Kevin James), a man whose dreams of a picturesque Italian wedding are shattered when his fiancée leaves him at the altar, embarks on his planned honeymoon across Italy alone, immersing himself in the country’s vibrant culture, food, and beauty.

  • Rewatching Deuce Bigalow European Gigolo (Rob Schneider)

    Rewatching Deuce Bigalow European Gigolo (Rob Schneider)
    Dec 24 2025
    We dive back into the Sandler Cinematic Extended Universe by revisiting Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo, a movie Caleb George and Robert Bacon had already survived, but first-timer Marie Maloney had escaped… until now. Watching it together turned into a genuine blast, because this is a great bad movie: it moves at a breakneck pace and is stuffed with truly unhinged 2005-era gross-out humor, including a woman with a penis for a nose and Rob Schneider in a diaper. We break down why this thing somehow works as trash, laugh at how absolutely insane it is, and celebrate the rare joy of a movie that knows exactly what it is and never slows down.

    In our newest episode, Adam Sandler Please Stop reviews Jay Kelly, the long-hyped project that brings Adam Sandler and director Noah Baumbach back together—alongside a standout George Clooney. We break down why Baumbach’s style fits Sandler perfectly and why we were genuinely excited going in. We also highlight Clooney’s performance, which we think is his strongest in years.

  • Playdate (Kevin James)

    Playdate (Kevin James)
    Nov 26 2025
    Kevin James wants to be an action star, but he doesn't want to put any work into it so he made Playdate 2025 with Jack Reacher (Alan Ritchson). Marie, Bacon, and Caleb watched this Amazon shovelware and had a blast doing it dispite the movies best efforts.

    🎬 PLOT 🎬

    Brian has just been fired from his job. He becomes a stay-at-home dad. He accepts a playdate invitation from another stay-at-home dad who turns out to be a loose cannon.

  • Rewatching Barnyard (Kevin James)

    Rewatching Barnyard (Kevin James)
    Nov 7 2025
    Some movies stay with you long after they’re over, and none more than the 2006 animated cult classic Barnyard, starring Kevin James. We’ve talked about it so much, we finally watched it again… but this time, it’s Caleb’s first viewing. Bacon also shares his thoughts after seeing Adam Sandler live on his You’re My Best Friend tour. We wrap things up with all the latest news on upcoming Adam Sandler and Kevin James movies you won’t want to miss.

    🎬 PLOT 🎬

    Otis is a carefree Holstein steer who lives on a farm where the animals secretly walk, talk and party when humans aren’t watching. His adoptive father Ben is the responsible leader of the barnyard community, constantly reminding Otis to grow up and take things seriously. When Ben falls in battle trying to fend off a pack of coyotes that threaten the farm, Otis is thrust into the leadership role. Faced with the responsibility he’s always avoided, he must step up, protect his friends and family, and take the barnyard seriously, no more late-night partying and shirking duties.

  • Guns Up (Kevin James)

    Guns Up (Kevin James)
    Sep 19 2025
    Kevin James is back, but not in a way anyone asked for. His latest movie Guns Up 2025 tries to be John Wick with mob codes, diner dreams, and a lot of gunfire.

    We watched it so you don’t have to, and in this episode of Adam Sandler Please Stop, we’re breaking down exactly why it fails. From the incoherent plot and lazy mob clichés, to Kevin James’s limp performance and Christina Ricci single-handedly saving the movie. We’ll talk about Edward Drake’s controversial writing during the WGA strike, Luis Guzmán’s phoned-in acting, the true meaning of “family night”, and why Kevin James is completely exposed when you strip away the comedy.

    🎬 PLOT 🎬

    Ray Hayes (Kevin James) is a former cop turned mob enforcer trying to leave the life behind to open a diner with his wife Alice (Christina Ricci). But when his mob “family” is taken over by Lonnie (a cigar-chomping villain with one eye), Ray is forced into one last bloody night. Along the way, we meet Irish Danny (the only good actor here), Luis Guzmán with a dagger cane, and a parade of henchmen who apparently don’t know how knives work.

    By the end, Ricci’s character, not James, is the real hero, proving the movie should’ve been hers all along. It’s messy, boring, and destined for Tubi.
