OT- UofM mentioned in new movie

Submitted by HALOL on

University of Michigan is mentioned in this new Jason Segel romantic comedy, "The Five Year Engagement" Just seen the trailer for it, looks like another Segel movie that will be fairly funny but probably not worth going to the movies for.

What do you mean I don't talk you anywhere? I took you to Ann Arbor last year for the ND-Michigan game.

...but this season on Gossip Girl one of the convoluted storylines was that a woman couldn't let her rich (but estranged) family find out what her daughter was doing because "they would never forgive me."  After that bit of suspense building we find out a couple of episodes later that the daughter was a "poli-sci major at Michigan State."  I have no idea if that was an intentional dig at the Spartans but I thought it was funny.

No Strings Attached.  It has Ashton Kutcher and Natalie Portman in it.  It is the same movie that had Mila Kunis and Justin Timberlake in it basically.  Anyway Michigan is all over the beginning of the movie.  Plus I kinda dig little Natalie so it wasn't all bad after all.

I sat across the aisle from him flying from LA to Detroit while he was filiming last summer. He put away about 4 Vodka and apple juices (they had no grapefruit juice) in an hour and slept the rest of the flight. Word on the street is that he frequented several downtown Ann Arbor bars and took home quite a few different ladies during his stay.

I have a female friend who was at the bar with him one night.  Despite the fact that he always looks kind of dopey on screen, she said he's much better looking in person.  She also said that when she saw him, he was hitting on a couple girls.  He seems like a nice guy (in TV interviews) and it would be cool to hang out with him, but I guess he had fun with the local ladies in Michigan.
