In this Funny or Die video, Paul Rudd storms into Harvey Weinstein's office to offer him some marketing ideas for his new movie, Our Idiot Brother. By which I mean, he offers him B-grade Will Ferrell jokes. The "Brooklyn" sequence is particularly excruciating, and not in a way that ends up being funny, but Weinstein's Superintendent Chalmers act almost makes up for it. Unfortunately, there's still a minute of video left after that. If nothing else, this clip proves that Rudd should just be a sidekick.
