Every Trick In The Book

Following last year's Oscar telecast, Jimmy Kimmel unveiled a trailer for a movie which he thought would be an instant contender for Best Picture the following year. As you probably guessed, he came up a little short on votes. So, this year he tried again and stepped up his game by including every movie cliche he could think of, while simultaneously showing just how silly the movie business can be. As you can see below, the results were very amusing. (It probably helped that he had tremendous production value and help from just about every buzz-worthy actor in Hollywood.) Honestly, I'm not sure which is worse - how accurate this is about the sorry state of movies and the crap movie going audiences are willing to accept or the fact that if this were real I would see it opening weekend.
