What's Your Favorite Adam Sandler Movie?

I choose Billy Madison, because it is one of his funniest movies of all time!

My favorite movie with Adam Sandler in it is Punch Drunk Love, but I wouldn't really consider that an "Adam Sandler movie". So I voted for Happy. "I eat little pieces of shit like you for breakfast!"

I probably would have to say Wedding Singer and Happy Gilmore. I have watched them the most of all his films.

Clever you did them in chronological order. Though you didn't list Punch Drunk Love, his BEST film by far.

You didn't include Anger Management or 50 First Dates. Never mind, you're not on the ball.

Punch Drunk Love - the only movie that I would consider different than those on the list provided, and the only one I consider memorable. All the others blend together for me...

They're all terrible, but if I had to pick one it would be Billy Madison.

I hate Adam Sandler, so Punch-Drunk Love would obviously be my choice considering he played a character that is not at all like him.

My vote went to Happy Gilmore but could have easily gone to the Wedding Singer. I don't care for any of his other films except Punch-Drunk Love.

I think Little Nicky was wrongly bashed. I laughed through more of that than any of the others.

Agreed, though...Punch-Drunk Love shoulda been on there.

of course it is an Adam Sandler movie. Sure, it isn't a comedy, but it is his starring vehicle and a fine one at that. So be proud, say it loud...

The only movie he's been in that I've seen is Punch Drunk Love, so I went with that one.

Didn't someone in a similar thread a year or so ago write that they really liked the one where he played "the childish character with anger issues", or something like that? I love that.

Punch-Drunk Love is his best film. As for his "dumb comedies" Billy Madison is the funniest imo. Chris Farley's hilarious in it.

Punch Drunk Love is the only one I could watch all the way through.
