What they did in Trafalgar Square: Freeze!!
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Feb. 16 was a memorable day in London’s Trafalgar Square.
Like it’s been done in several places across the globe, hundreds and hundreds of people staged an improv freeze in which individuals stood motionless for about five minutes. Only tourists and a few not in on the event walked around in amazement.
Here’s a video of some of the event. Enjoy.

Do I have reason to worry about ‘Indy Jones 4’?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
I’m worried.
I’ve seen the trailer for “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” with Harrison Ford and Shia LaBeouf a couple of times already. And I’m disappointed.
It looks so CG heavy, so fake, so computerized, so un-“Raiders of the Lost Ark.”
What I loved about “Raiders” was the commitment to stunt work and the movie’s unrelenting sense of realism.
And I know — they say “Crystal Skull” is based in stunt work, too. But the trailer just looks so glossy to me, so spit-shined up in a computer that … I … have … my … doubts. I’m beginning to no longer look forward to May 22.
Am I alone? Do you think “Crystal Skull” will rock? What do you think of the movie’s trailer?
