Comedy in the '09

Movies let's face it, have the tendency to be a bit out of touch with reality. While Paul Blart: Mall Cop was openly ridiculed by film critics everywhere, the general public liked it just fine, as it has earned a total of $121 MILLION to date. Slumdog Millionaire? Best picture Oscar winner and in theatres for almost 3 months? $98 million. And this was the most accessible of all of the movies nominated for best picture.
Clearly, Hollywood has a thing or to to learn about what people really want to see. They could start by asking Judd Apatow and Adam Sandler, the Prince and King of comedy, respectively. They get the middle class to come to the box office like none other.

Check out their latest project below:
