EIGHT CRAZY NIGHTS RETRO REVIEW | Double Toasted

[@jongon0848]

I actually have a friend who's Jewish and asked him once "Does it bother u there's not that many Hanukkah specials or films?" He told me this "Nah, we got The Rugrats. We're good." He has a very fair point.

[@rufustufusdufus]

i’m not jewish but whenever this review started i thought of the rugrats special right away

Isn’t there Hebrew Hammer & American Tale too?

[@Arosukir6]

@@silvercheetah92 OMFG, I forgot about the Hebrew Hammer for years, and you've just reminded me! Not Jewish myself, but I *loved* that movie. I'd watch it when it came on to Comedy Central. And An American Tail is an absolute brilliant classic.

[@poihpioakarp8845]

as a Jew who's not from America, the concept of watching holiday movies and specials as a holiday tradition around their time of the year is exrememly foreign to me. I think the real reason we don't get Jewish holiday movies is that Jews don't really roll like that.

When this movie came out, it was the era of extreme. Kids were way past getting in trouble by accident. Everyone wanted to be Stone Cold Steve Austin and do whatever they wanted because that's what they wanted to do. This isn't a great movie, but everything Adam Sandler's character does here is exactly what a 13 year old boy would do if they could get away with it. All the humour is playing to that PG-13 rating. The problem is that the script feels like it was written by a 13 year old boy. Sometimes that can work. But when it doesn't, you're just waiting for it to be over.

[@ToonSkribblez]

The animation in this movie is nice. And that's exactly the problem. It's too nice. When I heard that Adam Sandler was going to do an animated movie, I was hoping he'd use the medium to its full potential and go hard into the slapstick and crude humor that Adam Sandler movies are well known for. Something like Ren and Stimpy or Bob Clampett's cartoons. But instead we got a movie that looks like it's trying to imitate Disney's style with visual gags that were bland and uninspiring. It's a total let down and as an animation major it depresses me so damn much.

The big problem this movie had was Sandler getting overexposed in 2002. Starring in Mr Deeds, producing Hot Chick and Master of Disguise, getting Oscar buzz for Punch Drunk Love, and that's not even counting Eight Crazy Nights. The guy was everywhere that year, to the point that this movie felt like a blip once it dropped around Thanksgiving weekend. And as a 12 year old, even I didn't find it that funny. That was where a lot of the seeds got sown for the inevitable Sandler backlash of the late 2000s/early 2010s: RLM doing Jack and Jill, the South Park parody, etc.

[@elirosen1391]

As a Jew, I say there's a reason why Hanukkah movies are so few: Hanukkah doesn't carry the same sense of commercialism that Christmas does; it is a time of reverence, to reflect upon our freedom, and the fight our forefathers went through to restore it to us 3000 years ago; it's a time where we come together, celebrate each other, and feel a sense of gratitude for what we have; you could argue that since presents are involved, that should put Hanukkah in the same category as any other Holiday movie; but the reason we give gifts is to signify the bonds of love and dependence between parents and children, and vice versa as we get older; and I think a lot of us forget that sometimes. Adam Sandler certainly did. The theme of Hanukkah is sidelined for a main character, who is completely beyond tolerable at best, insanely immature and unlikable at worst, and a tragic backstory that's supposed to make us feel for him, but doesn't erase the misery he inflicted on his friends and everyone else. And it's chalk with crude jokes, disgusting, immature outdated gags that would not go down well with today's audience. And when all those brand mascots come together to guilt Davie into letting his grief out, when I saw it years ago, I was like "come on, Sandler, what holiday are you doing this for? I thought this was a Hanukkah movie". And yes, the only thoroughly decent character, Whitey Duvall, is treated like ass the whole way through the film, not just by the characters, but by Adam Sandler himself. I believe this was the moment where Adam Sandler's momentum as a director, producer, and actor was beginning to flake apart.

It's about time, although this would have been better as a bad movie roast with Billy (an actual Jew) there, but still can't complain. Now you'll just need the Star Wars Holiday special and y'all will be complete 😎. Edit: 12:10 yeah even at a you age I was confused about that joke and I thought when I got older I would understand it, but no 😂. Speaking of which this is one of the first edgy/raunchy films I watch as a kid and even back then I thought some stuff went to far like the porta potie scene and deer licking crap. Also, The comparisons to South Park was one Roger Ebert made and said it was that mixed with the Jackass films. Whats even more interesting is that when Doug Walker reviewed this film he received a letter from the director who said that he kept attaching the kindness Sandler showed him to the making of this film which is why he might take the criticism personally sometimes. He also mentioned that no one on production liked the Whitey voice including the focus group although they did not instruct to change it.
