Great! It's not so common that people here agree on things.

My mistake. Despite me being a bit of a fan of Mr Sandler I do agree that his use of toilet humour is slighly recrementitious at times.

I guess this is the point where I have to admit that I never saw an Adam Sandler movie completely. In fact I can't even remember having seen one partially, but that may be alcohol related.
But what I've seen in trailers combined with what I've heard from friends was enough to dislike them strongly.
It seems to be awfully close to common German comedies, which live up to their cliché.

I suppose you can either take that much or you can't. In that way he is similar to Monty Python. I know many people who either don't get Monty Python at all or find it funny until it gets to extreme nonsense level.

Hmm, what I really like is when it gets to the extreme nonsense level, but I still don't see a connection to farting in it (maybe someone actually farted, but that's irrelevant).
Not all farts are equally funny, imagine a fart in a teenage comedy compared with a Nazi officer suddenly farting in a serious WW2 movie.

Obviously but all farts have a certain innate funniness.

Are you saying that we are talking nonsense? Because if you think that then you have obviously never had the pleasure of seeing true nonsense.

Naw I'm just spouting nonsense for my own enjoyment
