Knocked Up
They say that opposites attract. Well, for slacker Ben (Seth Rogen) and career girl Alison (Katherine Heigl), that's certainly the case - at least for one intoxicated evening. Two months and several pregnancy tests later, Ben and Alison go through a hysterically funny, anxious and heartwarming journey that leads to huge laughs in this outrageous comedy hit!
Superbad
Seth (Jonah Hill) and Evan (Michael Cera) want nothing more than to hook up with girls they like before they head off to college. To do that, though, they need to get alcohol for the big party that night. With the help of their friend Fogell, a.k.a. McLovin (Christopher Mintz-Plasse), and his fake I.D., the three of them go on a hilarious chase for that elusive booze, dodging incompetent cops (Seth Rogen and Bill Hader) while attempting to reverse a lifelong losing streak in one hilarious night.
The 40 Year Old Virgin
40-year old Andy Stizer (Steve Carell) has done quite a few things in his life. He's got a cushy job at an electronics superstore, a nice apartment with a proud collection of action figures. But there's just one thing he hasn't gotten around to doing yet... Andy's never, ever had sex - not even by accident. A big deal? Well, for Andy's buds at the store, it sure is. Although they think he's a bit of an oddball, they consider it their duty to help Andy out of his dire situation.
Talladega Nights
NASCAR stock car racing sensation Ricky Bobby (Will Ferrell) is a national hero because of his 'win at all costs' approach. He and his loyal racing partner, childhood friend Cal Naughton Jr. (John C. Reilly), are a fearless duo known as 'Shake' and 'Bake' by their fans for their ability to finish so many races in the #1 and #2 positions, with Cal always in second place. When flamboyant French Formula One driver Jean Girard (Sacha Baron Cohen) challenges 'Shake' and 'Bake' for the supremacy of NASCAR, Ricky Bobby must face his own demons and fight Girard for the right to be known as racing's top driver.
The Internship (2013)
Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson star as two former salesmen who, never having
managed to come to grips with the digital age, are left high and
dry when their employer suddenly decides to call it a day. Staking
everything on one last throw of the dice, the pair, defying all the
odds, somehow manage to get themselves accepted onto a coveted
internship at tech giants Google. But will they be able to keep up
the facade once they take up their positions?
The Watch (2012)
Ben Stiller, Vince Vaughn, Jonah Hill and Richard Ayoade star as a group of
friends who form a neighbourhood watch group. While Evan Trautwig, a newcomer to the suburban neighbourhood, may have a
legitimate reason for forming a crime watch group following the
recent murder of a friend, it is clear that for most of the men
ulterior motives are at work. Indeed, Bob Finnerty seems
to spend a lot more time examining the dating habits of his
daughter, Chelsea, than he does looking for
threats. However, when the men stumble across what appears to be an
alien plan to destroy humankind, they understand where their
responsibilities lie and set out to counter the threat.
(Applause Books). Now in paperback, the complete story of the
actor's career, including his secret gay life. Raymond Burr
(1917-1993) was an enigma. A film noir regular known for his
villainous roles in movies like Rear Window, he eventually became
one of the most popular stars in television history as the lead
actor on two top-rated dramas, Perry Mason and Ironside, which
between them ran virtually uninterrupted for 20 years. But Raymond
Burr was leading a secret gay life at a time in Hollywood when
exposure would have been career suicide. To protect his secret,
Burr fabricated a tragic past for himself as a grieving husband and
father. He claimed to have been twice widowed he said his first
wife had died in a plane crash, and his second marriage had ended
with his wife's early death from cancer. And there was also a dead
son 10-year-old Michael, who lost his battle with leukemia. Neither
of the wives nor Michael ever existed. But that didn't stop these
lies from being perpetuated again and again, even in Burr's New
York Times obituary. Hiding in Plain Sight examines the totality of
Raymond Burr's career and his personal life, including his 35 years
with partner Robert Benevides. The author interviewed over 30
people who knew or worked with Burr, including Angela Lansbury,
Barbara Hale, Robert Wagner, Gale Storm, and more.

A BOOK OF THE YEAR GUARDIAN, THE ECONOMIST, NEW STATESMAN,
FINANCIAL TIMES, BLOOMBERG Anil Seth's radical new theory of
consciousness challenges our understanding of perception and
reality, doing for brain science what Dawkins did for evolutionary
biology. 'A brilliant beast of a book.' DAVID BYRNE 'Hugely
important.' JIM AL-KHALILI 'Masterly . . . An exhilarating book: a
vast-ranging, phenomenal achievement that will undoubtedly become a
seminal text.' GAIA VINCE, GUARDIAN Being You is not as simple as
it sounds. Somehow, within each of our brains, billions of neurons
work to create our conscious experience. How does this happen? Why
do we experience life in the first person? After over twenty years
researching the brain, world-renowned neuroscientist Anil Seth puts
forward a radical new theory of consciousness and self. His unique
theory of what it means to 'be you' challenges our understanding of
perception and reality and it turns what you thought you knew about
yourself on its head. 'Seth thinks clearly and sharply on one of
the hardest problems of science and philosophy, cutting through
weeds with a scientist's mind and a storyteller's skill.' ADAM
RUTHERFORD 'A page-turner and a mind-blower . . . Beautifully
written, crystal clear, deeply insightful.' DAVID EAGLEMAN 'If you
read one book about conciousness, it must be Seth's. JULIAN
BAGGINI, WALL STREET JOURNAL 'Amazing.' RUSSELL BRAND 'Gripping.'
ALEX GARLAND 'I loved it.' MICHAEL POLLAN 'Fascinating.' FINANCIAL

Unlocking the Sky tells the extraordinary tale of the race to design, refine, and manufacture a manned flying machine, a race that took place in the air, on the ground, and in the courtrooms of America. While the Wright brothers threw a veil of secrecy over their flying machine, Glenn Hammond Curtiss -- perhaps the greatest aviator and aeronautical inventor of all time -- freely exchanged information with engineers in America and abroad, resulting in his famous airplane, the June Bug, which made the first ever public flight in America. Fiercely jealous, the Wright brothers took to the courts to keep Curtiss and his airplane out of the sky and off the market. Ultimately, however, it was Curtiss's innovations and designs, not the Wright brothers', that served as the model for the modern airplane.
