Before you tell someone how tired you are on your grind, maybe you should watch this. This is a clip of the promo work being put in by respected actors Michael Caine and Morgan Freeman for their new film “Now You See Me.” Now, you must watch, and listen, to the very end. Halfway through, Mr. Freeman succumbs to fatigue for just a bit. Mr. Caine carries on with the interview, continuing discussion on the magic tricks that were part of the film. Then, as the video feed switches back to film footage, you can hear Freeman shaking off the morning fatigue to push through to the end of what was probably a long press junket. How can we know? Well, right at the end, you can hear audio of an exasperated Caine asking, “Is this the last one?”
These legends of film are still working this hard. Now, how tired are you again? Maybe they should name this new movie ‘Now You See Me Sleeping’.
UPDATE: Morgan Freeman issues a hilarious response to the infamous video below
“Regarding my recent interview, I wasn’t actually sleeping. I’m a beta tester for Google Eyelids and I was merely taking the opportunity to update my Facebook page.” – Morgan Freeman

Man Builds A Real Live Bat Cave (Video)
April 22, 2013
Batman fanatic Chris Weir has built himself a real-life Bat Cave in his basement, dropping more than $120,000 US (£78,000) on his home project and Batman-related interests. Suffice it to say, Weir is obsessed with Batman the Dark Knight. Batman comic books, action figures, and TV and movie posters and other paraphernalia. Kinda cool that his wife (Joanna) is on board… as long as the bills get paid.
While the Wayne Manor version might put more emphasis on the Bat Crime Lab, Weir’s features a home cinema inside the Bat Cave with a 100-inch TV screen where he watches Batman movies, shows and cartoons with his wife and young sons Zachary and Daniel.
“I wanted the room to look like something Batman himself would operate in, but its all for entertainment purposes,” Weir comments.
Weir’s infatuation with Batman began at age three when he played Batman and Robin in his yard with his uncle. Now 38, this grown man can do whatever the hell he wants… and he wants to play Batman with his fam.
Enjoy the video above. Interesting.
