Sandler Jabs Oscars: 'Better Ass-Kissers Than Actors?'

Adam Sandler humorously criticized the Oscar nominations during an event at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival. He quipped that the actors nominated for Best Supporting Actor were likely more skilled at "ass-kissing" in the Academy than at acting itself. Sandler was a potential contender for his dramatic role in the film "Jay Kelly," which also starred George Clooney and Laura Dern, but ultimately did not receive a nomination.

Despite expressing his surprise at not being nominated, Sandler maintained a lighthearted demeanor. He accepted the Maltin Modern Master Award with a joke about a fortune teller predicting an Oscar for "Jay Kelly 2." He also playfully warned fellow actors that he would "whoop" them next year with a performance in a potential "Grown Ups 3." Sandler reassured the audience that he was proud of "Jay Kelly" and enjoyed working with the cast and crew.
