@xxcharmed1xx I agree, Adam Sandler is an improvised, talentless, MORON.. all Adam does is HIMSELF, he doesn't act, he's NOT funny and basically a CLOWN.

@radconserv86 LOL He was, indeed.. he didnt take school srsly, only orchestra, and even that he caused disruptions in :D
-
@newseditor72 People on average don't' speak that eloquently and with that kind of intelligence in America anymore.

I love how Dorothy pays him just as he's leaving the stage!
-
@AndrewGilmore1986 I would consider him a kind of a bridge between the old timers and the generation of comics that arose in the 70s, although he's certainly a legend in his own right. However, I would not put him in the same category as Groucho Marx or Jack Benny.

@TheTubePortal What about Jonathan Winters?
-
@xxcharmed1xx Perhaps because they never used language like that?

I'm sure he was a handful for his teachers as a kid. What an imp! Funny man.

@beatlesfreak89 she was giving him a coin for his "pay"

@beatlesfreak89 Dorothy was trying a gag, but her timing was not as good as Jack's. Jack had made a comedic career as someone who was cheap and greedy (although in real life he was not). As he was leaving, in comedic character, he said: "Do I get paid for tonight?" When he arrives to shake her hand, Dorothy can be heard saying, "I'm going to give you some money" (so that he could say he had been paid for the evening), but she was a few seconds too late for the best effect.
A BRILLIANT, kind, generous, thoughtful man who seems to have entertained the whole world without ever uttering one off-color word. Please Mr. Benny, we need you more than the angels in heaven do right now.
