Bedtime Stories

For Adam Sandler fans, seeing the comedian in Bedtime Stories may come as a surprise. Stripped of mature jokes and references (well, mostly), the fantastical, family movie focuses on a down-and-out hotel handyman who begins to achieve his dreams through his imagination.

For Adam Sandler, the prospect of making a Disney movie meant he finally had a movie he could take his children to see.

"I've always wanted to do a family movie," the father of two told press a recent Saturday. "I wanted to make sure that I made one movie in my career that mothers hugged me for."

Variety has announced that Adam Sandler, Seth Rogen and Leslie Mann will costar in the next film that Judd Apatow will direct. And that's pretty much all they've announced, as the film doesn't yet have a title and the plot is reportedly top-secret.But we know the formula by now, right? Can't we write this sucker on our own? Sandler and Mann play a married couple. Sandler is a henpecked writer who misses hanging out with the boys (to be played by James Franco, Jason Segel and Jonah Hill). Mann plays his ball-busting wife, who is prone to both profanity and crying jags. Rogen is his bad-influence college roommate, with whom he sneaks off to smoke pot, play video games, drink Jägermeister and talk about chicks. Mann discovers that Sandler is not tutoring less-fortunate kids for the SATs but practicing for a beer-pong tournament in Rogen's basement (cameo by Christopher Walken as a disgraced Olympic table-tennis coach). Also: Someone gets their man bits caught in a revolving door.O... read more

Will Ferrell and Cheri Oteri, Saturday Night Live

Despite stumbling through much of the 1980s, NBC's Saturday Night Live returned to its place as a comedic touchstone in the 1990s. The ratings and critical response at the time didn't always show it, but in retrospect it's hard to argue with the results. Revisit the roster of talent that passed through the halls of 30 Rockefeller Plaza during the decade and names like Chris Rock, Tina Fey, David Spade, Adam Sandler and Will Ferrell immediately jump out at you. And from "Wayne's World" to a request for "more cowbell," numerous sketches from the time still resonate in the cult read more
