Coffee Beanery and Feature This! are celebrating their prominent placement in a hit number-one film with "Funny People (http://www.featurethis.com)" featuring the java house not only on the big screen but in its national television ad campaign. Commercials for the film, which air nationwide on all major networks, feature a clip of the main characters meeting at Coffee Beanery, including a tight zoom on a paper cup with the company logo.
This is the second time in their 12-year collaboration that Feature This! has scored Coffee Beanery a starring role in a number-one film: 2000′s "Erin Brockovich" also earned the top box office slot. Overall, Coffee Beanery has earned screen time in 40 feature films (www.featurethis.com) – including "Deep Impact," "Final Destination" and ”How to Lose Friends and Alienate People” – and 75 television shows, including such small-screen standouts as "Weeds," "Entourage," "24," "Chuck" and "90210."
And Coffee Beanery’s reputation doesn’t end in front of the camera. "The entertainment industry is one fueled by coffee, and Coffee Beanery’s premium craft-roasted blends are production crews’ caffeine of choice," said Jay May, President of Feature This! "Everyone working on these projects loves their coffee, so when we get placement in a movie or show, it’s not just us who reaps the benefits."
