Eight Crazy Nights is about a Jewish drunk in his early thirties named Davey Stone (voiced by Adam Sandler) who, after one too many run-ins with the law, is forced to clean up his act lest he spend the next decade in prison. Local youth sports volunteer and bully magnet Whitey Duvall (also voiced by Sandler) promises the small town of Dukesberry, New Hampshire that he can turn the delinquent into a model citizen before the last night of Hanukkah. Meanwhile, Davey tries to rekindle a relationship with his childhood crush, who's now a single mother, and her son. | |

Graceful Loser | |
| Eight Crazy Nights / int_191a3673 | comment |
Graceful Loser: After losing the patch award to someone who donated money, Whitey stands up and claps for the man before leaving quietly. After losing the basketball game with Davey and Benjamin, their opponent follows through on the bet of eating a sweaty fat man's jockstrap. However, it becomes subverted when the same guy is shown burning Davey's trailer down soon afterwards... with the jockstrap still seen in his mouth. | |

Holiday Pardon | |
| Eight Crazy Nights / int_1964a1b5 | comment |
Holiday Pardon: Zig-Zagged. When Davey Stone arrives at the award banquet, the police grab him and are about to arrest him when Jennifer — noticing Davey seems genuinely remorseful — calls for everyone to at least hear him out. They agree to hear him out, deciding to punish him after he's had his say. But after Davey calls them all out for being such assholes to Whitey, they instead follow him to where Whitey is so they can give him the award he so richly deserved. Davey is let off not because it's the holidays, but because of what he did for Whitey. | |

Mr. Fanservice: For a character who's supposed to be a lazy alcoholic based visually on Adam Sandler, Davey is pretty ripped (Word of God is that Davey was designed to look like "an Adam Sandler action figure," with all that that implies). | |

Non-Indicative Name: While the film takes place over the course of the eight nights of Hanukkah and has several references to the holiday, it's not really about Hanukkah itself and is more of a buddy comedy. It was released on the first night of Hanukkah, though it didn't coincide with Christmas (in 2002, Hanukkah started the day after Thanksgiving). | |

Kick the Dog | |
| Eight Crazy Nights / int_34dcfc96 | comment |
Kick the Dog: Davey does a lot of mean things, but by far the cruelest is ream out Whitey as being a worthless nobody who is deluding himself into believing anyone cares about him in spite of 35 years of work with nothing to show for it, and all because Whitey rightfully called him out on refusing to come to terms with the death of his parents. Whitey is so heartbroken from this, that once he loses the chance to get a patch (at first), he descends into a full blown Despair Event Horizon. It's also one of the very few scenes of Davey's nastiness that isn't played for laughs. | |

Trashy Trailer Home: Davey Stone lives in a very small trailer near a junkyard. His trailer has no electricity and no running water, because no one wants to hire an insulting, alcoholic jerkass. Davey is somewhat looking forward to being sent to jail for his misdemeanors, as jail has heated cells and working toilets. Davey loses what little he had when a Sore Loser sets his trailer ablaze. | |

Jerkass Has a Point: Davey repeatedly says he doesn't want to talk about the night his parents died, but they go ahead and discuss it right in front of him regardless. Can you blame him for snapping at them afterwards? Even when about to be arrested in front of the other townspeople, he manages to get through to them how they didn't act any better to Whitey than he did. | |

Covers Always Lie | |
| Eight Crazy Nights / int_7315fd38 | comment |
Covers Always Lie: The film's two promotional posters and its soundtrack album features Davey, with a devilish look on his face, flying his trailer through town and up into the air, with Whitey, Eleanore and the deer hanging onto a cord with various bits of Christmas and Hanukkah decor as they trail behind him. Davey's trailer doesn't fly in the film proper, nor is there any implication of magic existing. The DVD cover for the 2-Disc Special Edition features Davey throwing a snowball at the... well, at you, as Whitey, Eleanore, Jennifer and her (Jennifer's) son Benjamin, stand by him, smiling over it (except for Eleanore, who reacts as you'd expect her to). Jennifer is most certainly not shown smiling or otherwise approving of any of Davey's antics or Jerkass behavior in the actual film (unless it's meant to represent Davey becoming a better person and having a playful snowball fight with someone, though that doesn't seem too likely). | |

Prank Date: Type 2. During the song "Bum Biddy", one of the women reveals she went to high school with Whitey; as a joke she told him to meet her at the prom. When he got there, she was already taken with another guy and told Whitey, "I can't believe you ever thought I was serious!" causing everyone to laugh at him. This was enough for Whitey to run home crying and have to slow dance with his mom. | |

| Eight Crazy Nights / int_863fa679 | comment |
What Happened to the Mouse?: Some details in the movie go unaddressed. There's no indication that Davey does the time in jail he earned after the events of the film. To elaborate, that night, the judge said that Davey's sentence starts now. However, we don't ever see if he decided to drop that or not. Did Davey end up going to jail or not? Also, the basketball player who sets Davey's trailer on fire as revenge for beating him in a game of basketball. He just disappears and isn't mentioned again. | |

Mood Whiplash: Davey and Jennifer's song where they reminisce about their childhoods is interrupted when the former sees his home on fire. The finale has Whitey and Davey exchange wishes of "Happy Hanukkah" and "Merry Christmas" before the pair hug. The last shot of the film is Whitey, after a joyous moment of recognition, on the ground having "the happiest seizure ever." | |

One could argue that his years are finally catching up with him though. | |

Some kids have snot erupt from their noses. Mr. Chin rips off his shirt. One man does That Russian Squat Dance. Even the deer outside are laughing so hard, they’re pooping out little brown pellets onto the snow. The only people there who don’t laugh are Benjamin and Jennifer. Benjamin’s confused why everyone is laughing so hard, while Jennifer tells him people are doing it to be nice. | |

Jennifer is most certainly not shown smiling or otherwise approving of any of Davey's antics or Jerkass behavior in the actual film (unless it's meant to represent Davey becoming a better person and having a playful snowball fight with someone, though that doesn't seem too likely). | |

Toilet Humor: A fair bit throughout. For instance, a deer "projectile shits" from laughing so hard. There's also Whitey's port-a-potty ride. And when he gets frozen just afterward by Davey hosing him down, he's cleaned up by the deer... and one turns to grin at the camera with crap in its teeth. But then again, it is an Adam Sandler movie. | |
