Netflix's latest Adam Sandler movie is none other than Hubie Halloween, a film about a dim-witted man-child who is trying to protect the people in his town from the terrors of October 31. The movie is sitting at 50% on Rotten Tomatoes, dropping 10 points from a day before, and overall reviews haven't been too kind. However, Hubie Halloween may be this bad on purpose.

Back in 2019, Adam Sandler delivered a memorable performance in the movie Uncut Gems. Many people were speculating Sandler would win some sort of award for his role of jeweler Howard Ratner. Alas, when the Academy Award nominations came out, Sandler was not nominated. From there, Sandler went onto the Howard Stern Show and made a threat. "If I don't get [nominated], I'm going to f***ing come back and do one [movie] again that is so bad on purpose just to make you all pay," Sandler said. "That's how I get them."

While many laughed off the threat, Hubie Halloween may very well be the film Sandler was talking about. At about what I perceived to be the 40-minute mark of the movie, as Sandler muttered his way through his lines while whimsical music played in the background, I noticed that the movie was only 6-minutes in. Have I become trapped in a Sandler vortex? Is this how time works?
