What you see to the right is not actually Eddie Murphy's head. It is instead a gigantic replica of Eddie Murphy's head that weighs an approximate three tons. No, I'm not kidding (and feel free to make your own joke). This freakishly large Ed Head will be traveling the United States to promote his upcoming movie MEET DAVE. It was in Los Angeles this past weekend and it's now making it's way east where it will end up in Times Square on July 3-5th where it will surely give some of the NYC crazies reason to believe some of their hallucinations might be real. What's the point of having a giant head travel cross country you ask? Well, because you can actually climb in the head, stick your head out the ear and get your picture taken. Pics will be uploaded to the MEET DAVE website and then cobbled together, mosiac-style, into a new poster for the movie. So in 10 years you could say, "Remember that really bad Eddie Murphy movie where he played a spaceman? No, not PLUTO NASH, the other one. I was on that poster!" And surely you will get slapped square across the face. MEET DAVE, which stars the otherwise lovable Elizabeth Banks, Gabrielle Union and Ed Helms, hits theaters on July 11.

I like Pluto Nash...
Yep! And Randy Quaid is great in it.





No, I'm not joking, I like this movie. I don't love it, but I like it.

Slapped!!
"Slapped square across the face." That made me laugh out loud. Good one. But seriosuly, what in the hell is wrong with Eddie these days. These movies he picks to do, are just completely insane. And please someone keep him from getting Ratner to direct Cop 4. Get Tony Scott for the love of Jebus!



Eddie needs to hook up with Apatow and his crew and get back to the funny. Damn I...

Eddie needs to hook up with Apatow and his crew and get back to the funny. Damn I miss Eddie from the 80s.

I don't know about the movie, but I find this a pretty smart marketing tactic (even though it seems a bit excessive). Its original and it promotes what is actually happening in the movie, unlike all these garbage viral sites they have nowadays

From the headline, I wanted this to be about Iron Maiden, even though deep inside I knew it was about that stupid film.

I'd say that was a waste of glue.
