Comedian Adam Sandler has topped Forbes’ list of Hollywood’s most overpaid actors for a second year in a row, the magazine revealed on Tuesday.

We looked at the last three movies of the biggest stars in Hollywood and calculated what they were paid and what the movies earned to come up with what is essentially a return on investment number for each star. We estimate that for every $1 Sandler was paid, he returned an average of $3.20.

Johny Depp is second on the list, returning $4.10 for every $1 paid, and Ben Stiller is ranked third, earning $4.80 for every $1 paid. Surprisingly enough, the list features only one woman: Sandra Bullock who makes $9 for every $1 she gets paid.

Here are the top ten superstars who earn way too much money:

  1.  Adam Sandler: returns $3.20 for every $1 paid.
  2.  Johnny Depp: returns $4.10 for every $1 paid.
  3.  Ben Stiller: returns $4.80 for every $1 paid.
  4.  Ryan Reynolds: returns $4.90 for every $1 paid.
  5.  Tom Hanks: returns $5.20 for every $1 paid.
  6.  Will Ferrell: returns $6.60 for every $1 paid.
  7.  Channing Tatum: returns $6.70 for every $1 paid.
  8.  Denzel Washington: returns $6.90 for every $1 paid.
  9.  Sandra Bullock: returns $9 for every $1 paid.
  10.  Ben Affleck: returns $9.37 for every $1 paid.
