Immediatly the audience is watching a parody TV advertisement for Globo Gym w
hich features shots of weightlifters and exercisers. These shots mainly consist of the female body in tight clothing, giving the audience an idea of the commercial.The narrator has a cheesy american voice talking to the viewer and asking them questions, much like stereotypical advertisement people would expect. He goes onto to say "tired of out of shape and out of luck with the opposite sex" and it shows a shot of a male lifting up a female whilst he does push ups.
The narration then switches to White Goodman (Ben Stiller) and he begins to speak ab
out the gym whilst walking the camera through it. We see various people working out and Stiller also speaks some ridiculous lines like "ugliness and fatness are genetic disorders, much like baldness or necrophilia". It jumps straight into the comedy and the audience is given a huge idea about what kind of character Stiller will play.Goodman then shows the viewer a picture of what he used to be like, which is a crazy picture of him, obese and naked, eating ice cream.
We then see Peter LaFleur (Vince Vaughn) and the editing drops in pace, the music stops and feed good music kicks in, showing the differences in the characters.
The titles also come on now, the font is simple and orange which has a old-style look. The colour itself matches the main character and how he's only ordinary.
Peter carries out his daily routine of getting up, brushing his teeth and getting into his car to go to work.
