The Human $ellout (G)
Big Balls
When marketing executive Bill Peterson (Jim Carrey) loses his job, he faces ruin. In the midst of an economic meltdown, he has little prospects of re-employment and is saddled by a whopping mortgage. To make ends meet, he decides to do what he knew best… he becomes a human marketing tool.
In exchange for corporate cash, he changes his name to Pepsi® Peterson, he covers his house, car and clothes in Toyota® ads, and promotes Disney® products wherever he goes. He soon becomes known as ‘the human sell-out’, appearing on TV chat shows and in magazines and newspapers. His visibility sky rockets – and consequently, so does his income.
In the attempts to secure one last massive pay-off, he posts himself on Ebay®. Far too late, Peterson recognises the flaw in his plan when a bidding war erupts between a thought-to-be-dead fairground owner/pop star from Gary, Indiana (played by Tracy Morgan) and a sadistic dominatrix (played by Sarah Palin®).
Possible dialogue:
Pepsi (to the dominatrix): “Please Madame, not the right testicle… It’s sponsored by Little Big Bingo!”
