Ari Sandel (West Bank Story, which won the 2006 Academy Award for live action short) made this video for WME’s Talent Department. As you know, WME often puts together spoofs (‘Pinkberry: The Movie’ here) for its quarterly meetings. APA was first to forward it because it pokes fun at both WME and CAA. Starring Maz Jobrani with cameos by Armie Hammer and Sofia Vergara and WME agents. Genius, and not just because it mentions Deadline and me:
Editor-in-Chief Nikki Finke - tip her here.

Pretty funny but wtf is that cut at 0:43 ????
pretty damn hysterical…i’m loving the sense of humor those suits have over at wme.
Love it! Get Ari a movie.
FUNNY!
a typical hollywood self stroke fest
@johnny eyelash – The whole point of the video is to update the company on the success it’s enjoyed over the past quarter, so I’m not really sure how they can do that without “self stroking”… They’re trying to keep their employees motivated and excited about their jobs, and they’re doing it in entertaining fashion. Don’t be such a hater!
Hahaha that’s great! “I can’t hear you… I’m in the Canyon…”
Deadline rules from the great beyond. Classic.
Love this. Good to see WME has a sense of humor. Maz was great.
I never laughed so hard at 12:30am before in my life… well, maybe for a midnight screening of “Caddyshack”, but otherwise never! Hilarious!!!
Death becomes Gaddafi. He looks much younger now.
Ur right Nikki it is genius. Ari is a real talent. I have met him before and he is very funny and lovable as a person. Clearly it shows in his work and especially his attention to detail. Lady who knows is right. Get this guy a movie.
Sean Elliott’s handsome enough to be an actor.
you’ve got to be kidding – what is this third grade sketch nonsense. embarrassing!
Too soon.
Seems like WME is a very male oriented place. Aren’t there any female agents?
Awesome but someone should pistol-whip the soundman.
Hardly news worthy for mediocre work by mediocre director
Not every OSCAR-winning director is mediocore…..
IMO; this was just brilliant.
Female agents at WME? Are you silly? That’s like asking where are the Black agents HAHAHAHA, how can you do that with a straight face?
Yeah–what Mike said.
This was great. Well done.
Lame attempt at humor and those agents should be getting WME clients work not making shorts. Another win for CAA and UTA.
Absolutely priceless!!! Love it!
Hilarious! Ari is one of the few filmmakers who can find and execute broad humor in delicate political issues. He’ll have his choice of projects after this.
That was fucking hilarious
L.A.M.E.
Just Staggeringly unfunny. aggressively and shockingly unfunny.
someone hire ari – talented guy
