Directed by: Judd Apatow
Synopsis: Comedian George Simmons (Adam Sandler) learns he is dying and takes a struggling comedian named Ira (Seth Rogen) under his wing.
Kitty Cameos: Ira is watching a video made by another comedian named Leo Koenig (Jonah Hill) which features footage of kittens and Leo acting like a cat.
Ira is dumbfounded that the video has 700,000 hits in four days. “If you put cute kittens in the title of your YouTube video, you’re going to get a million hits,” Ira explains.
According to the DVD commentary, Jonah Hill hated the whole cat video segment purely because he didn’t think it was funny, which of course was the director’s intention.
Final Mewsings: Cats rule the internet.
