The Art of Bee-ing
Dreamworks and Jerry Seinfeld are certainly cranking up the promotion of Bee Movie, the animated feature in which Seinfeld stars. Promotions include Brachs Candy Corn that’s labeled as being made with “real honey” and McDonald’s Happy Meals, which is including toys in its classic “Happy Meals.” Plus there are all those shorts aired on NBC.Now, I haven’t seen the movie, but I’m a little suspect. We all know about the Seinfeld curse. Plus we know that Jerry was never the funniest guy (unless, of course, you enjoy jokes about socks in a dryer).
Give me a grasshopper movie starring Larry David any day. Now that’s where I’d show some enthusiasm.
