Most Adam Sandler movies are lowest common denominator toilet humor that don't age well at all.

Seth Rogen movies got a lot of silly shyt too but they're a lot smarter and not dependent on cheap gags.
Seth incorporates a lot of gay humor as well...a lot of it is unwarranted..but if you like h0mosexual jokes in your movies...Seth is your man.

Two words: Judd. Apatow.

Most of his early connections come from him.

And he writes and/or produces his own movies, so he can do things like make his character knock up Katherine Heigl.
:stopitslime: Breh in the movie itself it was written as some improbable shyt and Katherine Heigl going WAY below her standards cuz she was drunk and desperate

Adam Sandler hasn't made a funny movie since the 90s and even those aren't that great and aged like shyt.
At the time, Adam was the man.

Adam is 52 whereas Seth is 37 which makes all the difference in demographics.

Adam does light hearted movies whereas Seth likes to do raunchy, juvenile comedy.

Its like the diff between Rakim an Nas...

One was the architect, the other peeped the style and improved on it for his generation..

Adam did raunchy shyt too, it was just bad. Even tried to get the Seth Rogen stimulus, shyt was still bad. Has nothing to do with demographics. If you pull up scores for Sandler movies and Rogen movies, the Rogen movies are gonna have higher scores.

Again my point is Adam did movies geared twords his audience as is Seth.

Yet Adam did more family friendly movies than Seth.

Lets see what kind of movies Seth will be making at 50...

Make a list of the movies Adam starred in compared to the movies Seth starred in (not as a co-star), then we can go from there..

Adam has a lot more under his belt than Seth..

Seth was smart. He found his lane/audience and grew WITH them instead of trying to stay relevant amongst the “kids”.

He also took alot of supporting roles and let other actors get shine.

He doesn’t seem to have a huge ego, hes got that “just glad to be here” type of persona that people like.


His movies aren’t funny to me except 40 Year Old Virgin and Green Hornet (Sue Me) but he’s mastered his niche

He's dope at what he does and seems super laid back about his success.

And however you feel about him, Superbad is a classic. He took the momentum from that and did his thing with it.

Everything about this post is :dead:

You gonna tell me Sausage Party and This Is The End are smart? :mjlol: :dahell:

You’re comparing Apatow’s stuff he was in. Look at the shyt Seth has done solo and tell me they’re “smart.” He’s basically Adam Sandler 2000. :usure:
