In Judd Apatow‘s comedy Funny People, Adam Sandler plays a popular comedian named George Simmons. He’s a successful comedian turned actor who (like Sandler himself) has appeared in many crappy films. After the jump, see the posters for these fake posters, also view clips and plot outlines.
Funny People will be in Theaters July 31, 2009.
The idea of Year One seems more hilarious than the trailer makes it out to be. Not sure about this one. But, I’m keeping my fingers crossed.
Plot Synopsis:
When a couple of lazy hunter-gatherers (Jack Black and Michael Cera) are banished from their primitive village, they set off on an epic journey through the ancient world in Columbia Pictures’ comedy Year One.

Pineapple Express
Rating: 
Directed By: David Gordon Green
Starring: Seth Rogen, James Franco, Danny R. McBride
Plot Synopsis:
A film about a rare new strain of pot called “Pineapple Express”. But when Dale (Seth Rogen) becomes the only witness to a murder by a crooked cop (Rosie Perez) and the city’s most dangerous drug lord (Gary Cole), he panics and dumps some of his Pineapple Express at the scene. Dale becomes paranoid that this rare strain of weed can be traced back to him.
Review:
I’ve never been one to really go for the “Stoner Comedies”, granted there are a select few that have warmed me over (Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle comes to mind). The only reasons I was interested in Pineapple Express was seeing James Franco in a comedy, the Seth Rogen/Judd Apatow comedy machine, and a fresh spin on the “Buddy Action Flick.”
