Considering just how crazy having a large tree or a raccoon on a team of heroes or space outlaws is, I am not surprised at who Disney may be considering to cast for Guardians of the Galaxy. According to Latino Review, the studio is reportedly courting comedians Jim Carrey and Adam Sandler for roles in the James Gunn-directed film. No word yet on who they would be playing, but based on the original report it wouldn’t be Star Lord. According to LR, the two could be playing/voicing Groot – the large humanoid tree – and/or Rocket Raccoon – a character with an affinity for large high-powered weapons.

No word yet on if the offer is for both roles or just one role in particular, but in any case I can guess which actor most fans could feel disgruntled about if he was cast. So for now, let’s take everything with a grain of salt. Nothing has been confirmed, and all that we know is that Disney has an offer on the table.

That headline means exactly what your brain most likely first thought it meant.

Adam Sandler and his Happy Madison Productions are currently developing a movie based on the French animated/live-action/comic book panel hybrid short from Daniel Brunet and Nicolas Douste, titled Bad Toys II, for Columbia Pictures.

The short is basically a man playing with his old toys, but presented in the style of a Michael Bay movie (just as most of us imagined it as kids), drawing much inspiration from the highway car chase in Bays Bad Boys II.

No matter how critically panned Adam Sandler‘s work is, he will always have his fan base supporting him. So don’t be surprised to see his fans fill the theaters for Hotel Transylvania, the animated family comedy set in a hotel that specifically caters to monsters, beasts, creatures, and other beings that go bump in the night.

Directed by Genndy Taratkovsky (Samurai Jack, Dexter’s Laboratory) the film reunites Sandler with his That’s My Boy co-star Andy Samburg. You can check out the new trailer below.

You’ve got to hand it Adam Sandler: the guy gets exorbitant salaries to make crappy comedies with his entourage of unfunny and untalented goons who think the words “pee-pee” and “poo-poo” are the height of hilarity, and every bit of pathetic schlock that goes out into theaters with Sandler’s name above the title often makes beaucoup bucks at the box office. The guy started out making comedies that were genuinely funny though extremely juvenile at first, but somewhere along the way he found out that it was easier to sell out and stick to a surefire formula for making movies that generate fast and plentiful profits in theaters and on video and cable.

The old Sandler – the guy who only cares about making people laugh and not just about satisfying his taste-deprived fan base – occasionally shows up for a fleeting moment, like the wonderful first two acts of Judd Apatow’s bloated Funny People, but then he disappears just as fast into another awful movie where he plays an overgrown manchild who loves to vomit, defecate on someone’s front lawn, and engage in acts of pointlessly absurd brutality that would only be truly hilarious to the lobotomized.

Paramount Pictures is planning to remake quintessential ’80s movie Summer School, which starred Mark Harmon, Kirstie Alley, and Courtney Thorne-Smith, and now they’ve entered into negotiations with Adam Sandler and his Happy Madison production company to deliver the remake.

The movie tells the story of an unmotivated high school gym teacher who has to cancel all of his summer plans when the vice principal decides to have him take on a class of outcasts and slackers as the new summer school teacher.
