The Waterboy is a 1998 sports comedy film starring Adam Sandler as Bobby Boucher, a water boy who discovers his football tackling talent and joins a college team. Rob Schneider has a supporting role as overly enthusiastic townie and fan, providing big laughs in just a few scenes.
Schneider's trademark weird energy played off Sandler's manchild humor perfectly in their first team-up. As a dimwitted Cajun redneck obsessed with Boucher, Schneider stole the spotlight despite minimal screen time. While critics found the film juvenile, it became a major box office smash for Sandler.
All Cast: Adam Sandler (Sonny Koufax), Joey Lauren Adams (Layla Maloney), Jon Stewart (Kevin Gerrity), Cole Sprouse (Julian 'Frankenstien' McGrath), Dylan Sprouse (Ben 'Frankenstein' Mcgrath), Josh Mostel (Arthur Brooks), Leslie Mann (Corinne Maloney), Rob Schneider (Nazo)

Big Daddy is a 1999 American comedy film directed by Dennis Dugan and starring Adam Sandler as immature 30-year-old Sonny who adopts a 5-year-old (Cole Sprouse) to impress his girlfriend and prove he can be a responsible dad. Rob Schneider plays Middle Eastern delivery man Nazo in a small but hilarious role.
As with The Waterboy, Schneider maximized laughs in limited screen time as part of Sandler's ensemble. His crazy accent and chemistry with Sandler demonstrated their comedic wavelength. Big Daddy marked one of Sandler's biggest 90s hits thanks to the interplay with Schneider and rising child star Sprouse.
