Now he can make a comedy about a director who wants to make a movie and his actors quit because they don't like the movie. Sounds like as good a premise as the original.

Native American Actors Quit Adam Sandler Movie Over Complaints Of Stereotypes
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — A group of American Indian actors walked off the set of an Adam Sandler movie this week over complaints about stereotypes, offensive names and scenes they say disrespected Native American religious practices.
Actor Loren Anthony told The Associated Press on Thursday that he and eight others quit the production of the satirical Western "The Ridiculous Six" after producers ignored their concerns about its portrayal of Apache culture and the inappropriate use of props.
Anthony said the script included offensive names for Native American female characters and a scene where a Native American woman urinated while smoking a peace pipe. Another scene used chicken feathers on teepees, he said.
"Right from the get-go, it didn't feel right. But we it let it go," said Anthony, a Navajo actor who started work as an extra on the movie Monday. "Once we found out more about the script, we felt it was totally disrespectful to elders and Native women."
"The Ridiculous Six" is produced by Sandler and Allen Covert and is slated for a Netflix-only release. Production began this month in Santa Fe and elsewhere in northern New Mexico.

Just more proof that Adam Sandler is an asshole. He's also a Jewish Republican asshole - and a lousy actor.
good question , will never know I guess . What are your thoughts if you have ever thought about your question Lakhota ??
And then they complain they don't get any parts in movies
Maybe Sandler should have made a movie that belittles Republican Jews.

Ok please. Get a life! It's a friggin movie. No one cares

No ... The RWs here would be all over that. Imagine what these hypocrites would say if the stupid sports teams were named after Jews. But its okay to make fun of Native Americans and Hispanics, and its always open season on Blacks.
Thing is, whites really don't understand how important, how very precious family is to Native Americas and Hispanics. Nor do whites understand or share their respect and love for their elders. Whites just don't have that depth of feeling and commitment to their own families.
well for starters you would not be sitting in front of a PC......What would Native America look like today if it had been allowed to evolve on its own - without the outside influences of the European invasion?
yea all 100 of them.....
