Adam Sandler's 'Grown Ups' trailer is totally lame

Kevin James, Rob Schneider, Chris Rock and David Spade in Grown Ups

Adam Sandler, Kevin James, Chris Rock, David Spade and Rob Schneider are starring in Dennis Dugan's new comedy "Grown Ups," and the first trailer for the film sucks big time. And I mean BIG TIME!

The story follows four old friends who haven't seen each other for decades and one day decide to reunite for a Fourth of July weekend. What a bad idea, because we get to watch them catch up and all.

As you can see in the trailer below, this one looks just like yet another ultra-lame slapstick comedy in which some good actors prove they have what it takes to pick a project everyone knows is going to stink.

David Spade ready to get 'Divorced'

David Spade has signed on to star in Fred Wolf's next comedy "Divorced Guys," according to Variety.

In the film written by Wolf, Spade and Kevin P. Farley, a group of divorced friends embark on a road trip to figure out why their marriages failed. Along the road, they will stumble across a series of comic misadventures. 

Spade has been spending some time appearing in television's "Rules of Engagement" and "Carpet Bros." He also recently wrapped filmming for Matt Berman and Farley's "Hollywood & Wine."

Wolf most recently directed Anna Faris in "The House Bunny." His credits also include the disastrous "Strange Wilderness."

I know we don't know much about "Divorced" yet, but at this stage, I'm not all too excited about this. A story about a bunch of guys going on a road trip to figure out why they are failures is not exactly new material.
