Wrapping up our Season Five theme of Reboots, Remakes, and Re-dos we take the time to re-examine the seventh film we assessed on our journey to create our own shared cinematic universe of the film’s of Adam Sandler 2011’s “Just Go With It.”It being the first film to judged after our core six films that we knew composed the foundation of what we were setting out to build, Sejohn was fearful we may not have given it a fair shot so it is back in our crosshairs for a second chance. As a bonus the film itself is a remake of the 1969 film “Cactus Flower” so it fits nicely with the rest of the films that had their moment in the spotlight during season five.Thank you for joining us on this journey through the Sandler Reboots, Remakes, and Re-dos and we’ll see you back here next month for the Sandler Sequels.Comments can be directed to [email protected] and don't forget to follow us on Twitter @TheASCU

Concluding the double features of head themed titles and to help honor Brendan Fraser History Month, which we are celebrating over on our sister podcast “The Say Report,” this episode we support the season five theme of Reboots, Remakes, and Re-Dos by remaking our episode on the 1994 film “Airheads” that stars Brendan Fraser, Steve Buscemi, and of course the reason we are all here… Adam Sandler.Does this film have what it takes to find a place in our shared cinematic universe or is it so uniquely of its time that it is destined to drift endlessly through the void of entertainment desiring for its message to be heard?There is only one way to find out and that is to strap in and join us on our journey.Comments can be directed to [email protected] and don't forget to follow us on Twitter @TheASCU
