People Pretending They are Frozen in Grand Central Station.

Posted on February 11, 2008 by honkeyd

In this Improv Everywhere prank, 207 people enter Grand Central Station and pretend they are frozen.

I will classify this as more ‘cool’ than ‘funny’, but it is worth 135 seconds of your time.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall Trailer | Produced by Judd Apatow

Posted on February 6, 2008 by honkeyd

He brought us Knocked Up and 40 Year Old Virgin, now Judd Apatow has produced what looks like another smash hit.

Here is the plot outline from IMDB.com:

‘Devastated Peter (Segel) takes a Hawaii vacation in order to deal with recent break-up with his TV star girlfriend, Sarah (Bell). Little does he know Sarah’s traveling to the same resort as her ex … and she’s bringing along her new boyfriend.’

Watch the trailer and let us know what you think.

P.S. Sorry for using the phrase ’smash hit’.
