Despite 2011's "Jack and Jill" sweeping the Razzie Awards, it went on to make a total of $149.7 million worldwide.

Many of his other films still gross more than $100 million. With the added star power of Chris Rock, Kevin James, Rob Schneider, and David Spade, 2010's "Grown Ups" ended up making $271 million worldwide.

Sandler's most recent live-action film, "That's My Boy," featuring Andy Samberg didn't fare as well earning just $57.7 million at theaters.

As of Thursday morning, "Grown Ups 2" has been accounting for 21% of all ticket sales on Fandango.

The sequel sees the crew — minus Schneider — regroup on their kids' final day of school before the summer.
