I'm just listening to an ad for the new Adam Sandler movie, and it just got to me.
After years of the grossest jokes, there seems to be the need to "prove themselves" in a dramatic role. Jim Carrey does it too.
Maybe I'm being an a**. But it grates on me.
I dunno. Does Robert DeNiro suddenly feel the need to do "poo poo" jokes? Should Anthony Hopkins star in the next Farrelly Brothers movie?
If people are so anxious to change genres, then why are they so happy to do the "idiotic" roles to start with?
For the record, I thought Dumb and Dumber and Big Daddy were great fun.
I may be a crank, but it's hard for me to see these people in very dramatic roles.
What gives?
