reply

Bully Madisn for sure.

It is the greatest. I watch them both every day and I can tell you without a bar of soap that Billy Madson is a funnier movie.

Eric has funny balls.

Well you are on the Billy Madison board so most likely Billy Madison is going to get more votes. As for me I think Happy Gilmore is the better of the two but not by much I just felt that Adam Sandler was too goofy in Billy Madison because he relied moronic, absurd humor to get the people's attention.

Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore, and Big Daddy are tied IMO

Happy's the better movie when it comes to anything besides humor. It's more solid, has a good story and characters. It's also a good golf film even if it stars Sandler.

Madison though is more intentionally hilarious though, so it gets my vote for which is funniest. Not saying Gilmore is, but in Madison Sandler was allowed to be more himself, just bat *beep* insane.

while they're both great movies I thought Billy Madison had a much better love interest for Adam Sandler but Happy Gilmore was overall the better movie of the two, they're both my Top 2 favorite Sandler movies.

Hell yeah one thing I do find better about Billy was the girlfriend.

I like both, but Billy Madison had the more random WTF did I just watch? type of humor that I enjoy.

"Without management, there is only chaos."
"Can we try the chaos thing?"

Happy Gilmore is way better.

I overall prefer Happy Gilmore over Billy Madison but the only thing what I liked better about Billy Madison better than Happy Gilmore is I liked Adam Sandler's love interest better.

Gilmore...is there such a thing as gloriously stupid...if so Happy Gilmore was it
Madison was a bit grating...tried too hard...still decent enough though...

I would say Billy Madison is funnier, but Happy Gilmore was a better movie. They were both awesome.
