When one country discovers raw joy ore in its purest form, it would be near-criminal to not share it, and spread to the whole world the unadulterated laughter that can only spurt forth from an inexplicable set piece involving double-dutch with one's identical twin. So please, Earth, enjoy these international trailers for the comedy Jack and Jill, compliments of the United States, Adam Sandler, and Adam Sandler in a wig. This is probably the one and only time French-Moroccan comedian Gad Elmaleh will be credited instead of Al Pacino:

An Oscar would shatter if hit, right? No, wait, don't tell me; I'd rather not know if it's going to impede my belly laughter.

Honestly... the conceit, the music cues, the narration, Katie Holmes's purposefully hollow acting: this must be a brilliant satire, right? Does anyone have any evidence this is a real thing?
