I have to give it up to Funny or Die because when they nail it, there isn't anyone else even close. The embedded video below is just further proof of their genius.

Billy Crystal and Rob Reiner are back trying to pitch the studio on a sequel to When Harry Met Sally.... Sadly, it's funny because I'm sure there have been meetings like this one for real all over Hollywood these days as sequels are the new black.

The premise starts out promising enough as Sally has passed on, presumably because they couldn't afford to get Meg Ryan to reprise her original role. That's OK, Helen Mirren herself steps into the role as Harry's love interest.

Where the comedy truly lies in this piece is the unexpected right turn that the piece takes at that point. Sure, there are the throwaway "I'll have what she's having" jokes, but well, I don't want to spoil it. Simply watch below and share your laughs with us).

Interestingly, When Harry Met Sally... has yet to make it to Blu-ray. I'm sure the studio will rectify that mistake soon enough. In the meantime, you can sign up to be reminded when it does make it to Blu-ray by clicking here.
