* OlderThanTheyThink: The idea of having a fictional character meeting tons of famous people (and altering photos and videos to make the fictional character look real) is associated with ''Film/ForrestGump'', but this movie popularized the concept. Though by the time ''Gump'' was made, technology had advanced enough to show Forrest physically interacting with the historical footage, which Zelig never does (though he comes close with the footage from San Simeon.)

He does interact. Check the San Simeon footage.


** Though Gump was to first to actually have the new character physically interact with historical figures; Zelig is always fairly obviously pasted into the old footage and never interacts with it.
