Adam Sandler Research.

From looking at my research of Adam Sandler my conlusion is simply this.

I think Adam sandler's screen persona has aged along with him. To be honest i think that the humour in his films arent intentionally put into the films. I think its just expected because of Adam sandlers personality. For example when Sandler married his wife, he made his dog Meatball, the best man at his wedding, dressing him in a tux, and even letting the dog have the responsibility of taking care of the rings. (insane)

In earlier films such as 'Going Overboard' and 'Shakes the clown' Sandler showed a real childish, punky teenager approuch in all of his humour. But with such films as 'Funny people' It seems to have matured and devoleped into adult humour, but more relaxed as if its simply Adam himself playing himself in a film. It doesnt appear as him acting.

This is also proven in my research where sandler made a statement saying when he played as zohan in 'Dont mess with the Zohan' After he finished filming, he said because of the type of humour within the film, it made him feel dirty knowing his children were going to one day see this side of their father. A side he didnt like to show anymore with valgaur language, and highly 'Blue' comedy.

Also, before hand, Sandler made a statement about how money is everything. Clearly as he has grown, his opinion of money has changed seeing as he consistantly donates to charity, in one case he donated over $1,000,000 to the 'Boys and Girls charity' in his hometown. I think this is also shown in his more recent movies when he simply appear to play as himself, and doesn't ''TRY'' to be funny. He just well, is.

In the first 10-12 films that Sandler Starred in, He sort of seemed to develop this 'voice' that was like a childs voice, especially shown in ''Billy madison'', ''Mr.Deeds'' & ''Happy Gilmore''. They all showed this sort of childish, really immature side of Sandler with his voice and scripts and even the roles themself. It seemed as if the director cast him for these roles because of the fact that they knew he could be childish. But it just didn't seem right him parading around like a child, talking in a ridiculous voice. I think at this point Sandler himself started to realise this because after these films in particualr his humour seemed to take a different approuch. A more adult way of doing things whilst still remaining funny.

In his early carrer he made a breif attempt at becoming a stand up comedian, and his humour then, being yound, was in fact childish which is why i suppose he found it nessasary to continue his childish personality in his films. Because he realised people enjoyed watching him be this ...child. Although i think it grew tiresome not only in his movies, but with him as a person. Having children and getting married possibly made him realise he had to grow up for his wife and children. Although he still maintained the humourous side to his life with his dog meatball as his best man at the wedding.

Most of this was from my own knowledge, other the the fct that a few minor things such as his donation to a charity was found on wikipedia under the search "Adam Sandler"
