Funny People’s Funny Viral Campaign

The new Judd Apatow movie, Funny People, starring Adam Sandler and Seth Rogen, is getting a lot of buzz. Most of that is due to the effort that Apatow is putting into creating a real back story for Sandler’s character, George Simmons. Not only is there a site for him, george-simmons.com, but there’s also video clips of an imaginary sitcom from the show, and a whole slew of movie clips and posters that mark Simmon’s career. Check it all out below. I’ve never seen a movie go this far to blur the line between reality and cinema before.

Designed to be his compatible buddy, John got more than he bargined for with this feisty robot when Ted teaches John that real friendship can’t be programmed.
