The Virginal Vixen: Veronica Vaughn (Bridgette Wilson)

The Villain: Eric Gordon (Bradley Whitford)

The Premise: To inherit his father's hotel empire, the jobless and juvenile Billy Madison (Sandler) must once again make his way from first-grade to 12th. Along the way, he falls in love with his supportive, yet no-nonsense teacher (Wilson) and foils the evil corporate plans of his archrival (Whitford).

The Anger Factor: Moderate. Spelling bees don't fare well for Billy's temper, and he certainly isn't a big fan of Gordon's. Still, the original "Adam Sandler movie" doesn't feature the trademark tantrums we would come to expect after Happy Gilmore.
