In the upcoming film Funny people features Adam Sandler as a comedy film actor who is very successful, but finds out he is dying. As part of the setup, we get a peek at the films he was in, and today Justin Long put up a clip of a “film within the film” that looks to be taking a shot at some Little Man.
We Are Movie Geeks shares:
Here is the description from the video which Justin Long posted on FunnyorDie.com
Craig, a workaholic lawyer, never made time for his relationships. Alone and depressed on his 40th birthday, he wonders about the life he could have lead. But be careful what you wish for…you might just find yourself in diapers! When a wizard gives Craig a second chance at his youth, he discovers that sometimes it takes becoming a baby to learn how to be a man
I wonder if any of these fictional “films within the film” would gain enough popularity to make them want to create them.
The fake trailers found between the double bill Grindhouse films spawned Machete, so it is in the realm of possibility. However in this movie, part of the premise is that he gets famous doing really bad comedy films that somehow find success, so they might be deliberatly bad.
Which might make them funnier.
