Pete Davidson on Adam Sandler | 2023 Mark Twain Prize

I laughed so hard 🤣

[@porcelainthunder2213]

Whats amazing with every one of these people is that they don't talk only talk about the comedy or his career, but focus mostly on what a genuine good person and friend Adam is. If only Norm and Farley could have been there, too.

[@bulgingsubpoena]

Norm would've had a field day talking about Adam. 😢

[@rekonzuken1]

yes those two will make everyone froze in place

I mean … that’s how any speech works Award, wedding …etc U start with comedy then heartwarming Like yes it’s sweet but man ppl nowdays love to romanticize/dramatize or blow things bigger than it is What do u expect ur frds to say at ur big day No wonder every KZbin video has comments like It’s amazing Fun fact I love how

[@mstegs5477]

Norm? Oh that old lump of coal wouldn't have gotten a chuckle. OJ could brighten up a room way more than this norm fellow.

[@monicabrandt6234]

Pete is Pete. I appreciate his transparency and can see why he looks up to Adam. He kind of reminds me of a young Adam. Nothing but the best for them both!

[@M2SG]

He reminds you of a young Adam. I couldn’t disagree more. Pete Davidson is not funny for one. And his comical acting is horrible. Adam Sandler was hilarious and made multiple hilarious movies when he was younger. Saying Pete Davidson is like Adam Sandler is like saying that MGK is like a young Eminem. Both comparisons are an insult.

[@rawpower12xu]

[@IllIllIllIllIII]

You guys clearly don't watch much comedy then

[@tristincrain1858]

The pride and shine in Adam's eyes when he understood the dedication Pete had when he was able to make new comedic content on the spot while admitting a lot of his jokes were taken already... priceless

[@scottmatyac5599]

All jokes aside about Pete, it's very obvious how much of an impact that little moment had on him. Beautiful!

[@mattgaming8717]

Adam has that affect ok on damaged people.

[@heydeanie]

​@@mattgaming8717 but that's a good thing... what damaged Pete (loosing his dad in 9/11) certainly isn't his fault... I'm glad these older comedians are taking him under their wing a little, he needs positive older male involvement

[@cizia69]

"Please don't die because Judd is gonna make a fifty hours documentary about you!" Best joke.

[@eugeniosorosina8247]

It's more funny that you quote that "joke" than the joke itself...

[@Brand.on18]

"They took the shaba-da-doo's" was definitely something adam would say.

[@jq8974]

Wow - far more restrained than I ever expected from Pete. He must really love the guy. Cool.

[@krimpoo]

restrained? hes not jim carrey.

[@cspace1234nz]

...it's not a roast

[@erichowell3386]

Adam has the perfect view on life. It's one simple rule and it is easy follow. Treat everyone as you want to be treated.

[@MOUNTAINEER1976]

Say what you want about Pete, he's pretty consistent when it come to monologues.

[@franktank1984]

Yea, true, in that they are never funny and people only pity laugh because he constantly reminds them that he's a narcissistic drug addict with mental health problems who lost his dad on 9/11. You know, the good old fashioned way to earn laughs.

[@kitcobain444]

He did a good job here, and yes I agree 👍 💯

[@Eskay_The_Evil_Genius]

Yeah consistently bad

[@monicavillarreal3902]

Absolutely

[@Boygonebad]

[@creed5248]

I have never met him but I could feel that he was just a down to earth nice guy and all of these people that spoke at the awards just confirm it . Hope the Sandman lives for many years to come !!!

[@Adrian-zd4cs]

His Judd Apatow joke at the end was perfect. We love and appreciate you too Pete 😆

[@caydenseely8859]

“Only rich comedian over 50 who doesn’t need us to know what he thinks about trans people” 😅 truth lol, I love seeing the friendship/mentorship between Pete Davidson and older comedians like Adam, John Mulaney, etc

[@JM-zk9ou]

Adam Sandler sounds like a truly good human and better friend. Everyone is sharing how much Adam truly means to them, not statements about his career. God/the universe and his mother must be so proud of him.

[@redacted2275]

Sandler's production company got out if its way to hire Adam's friends. I was never able to really thrash on his movies because it wasn't nepotism, it was legitimate care. Hollywood movies come and go but his legacy as a great human being will live on forever.

[@reiver569]

Pete is so underrated. This was Pete’s second MTP speech.

[@marcushillerstrom25]

Pete's wardrobe guy was like, you are a tripple XL right? Loved the jokes, the "he was wrong, I'm not alright" was really good.

[@chaberio1335]

As someone who just turned 30 Adam Sandler has been a staple of comedy gold. Call it ill humor or cheap jokes as some may say but to do the things he was doing with the self-deprecating humor and bravery that most had never seen was incredible. Who hasn't watched or quoted Billy Madison & Happy Gilmore. Big Daddy & Little Nicky, as obviously self-deprecating attempts he began to open himself up to the world that he might have some tools in his bag we never expected. THAT, is what I loved most about Sandman. He could of kept on delivering hit or misses into the 2000s but with Anger Management & Punch, Drunk Love/ Click as well. He defined himself not only as a standout performer with serious drama chops but someone with the same theme he relayed in his very first film...A guy who we all would get along with and has tremendous empathy. Well deserved award for him.

[@redacted2275]

The only movie that I can stand Seth Rogen is 2009 "Funny People" where Sandler plays a stereotypical grumpy, old stand up comedian who has just learned he'll die. Rogen is not obnoxiously stoned and Sandler's good acting makes his character really insufferable. That and his song to Chris Farley are two great things Sandler did recently-ish. He surely has a solid legacy, I agree with you. "Click" is wonderful.

[@sergiomci12]

Out of all the friends, I think Pete’s speech made me laugh the most 😂

[@dorrelmccall3694]

The greatest line Pete ever said was " Why am I here". And it continues to live on.

[@1LadyM7]

Wow, first time I found Pete Davidson funny. This was great.

[@frankdux3605]

Pete's still the little kid who sneaks in his dad's closet to wear his clothes 😢

[@canaisyoung3601]

That's worse when you realize that Pete's dad was one of the firefighters who died during the 9/11 attacks. And, according to the comedy special "SMD", Pete does wear his father's firefighter gear when he gets wasted.
