Even though Efron was the star, he didn’t act like a big shot, adds Shankman. “[Zac] was blown away that we could put it together and he was really, deeply grateful. If you want to know what kind of people Zac and Vanessa [Hudgens] are … I turned around and Vanessa was taking out the garbage and Zac was doing the dishes. They have no entitlement issues, it’s all for one and one for all. Nothing is taken for granted.”
i love zanessa comment of him… the video was coool and i love the last part of vanessa saying the poop and zac conntaining himself in laugh
vanessa looked hot!!!!!!!!!!!!
This was lame…should of worked on the material instead of worrying about who was going to be in it.
tom and nicole were the only really good, though zac was quite funny…sorry fans, i like nessa too, but in this vid she was horrible!:/
i luv the part ‘oh u smell like waffles’ lol!XD
and ppl will say vanessa has lot of projects, sure, but in bandslam and also in sp she has a second role, not the min one…she’s beautiful, she has a great voice, she’s a lil self absorbed but still cute…but acting is not her thing…peace out…
…oh i forgot…zac…*-* what a hottie!:)
or die!
OMG that is going to be the funniest video these two have ever been in together. I love these two to death,they’re like my own kids,I know them personally and they are the sweetest couple ever,and seeing Joel and Nicci in there is awesome. I can not wait to see it!!! Awesome job guys as always in everything you two do :o) I definitely want to see more movies with you two in it together,your chemistry is out of this world sweeties,as it was in HSM when your love first began. All of the cast did a really great job making this hilarious video. LMAO
LONG LIVE ZANESSA!!! <3333
not that funny
DIE!
Was this supposed to be funny???
cuteness
yeah, not that funny. i kinda hate that Zac’s name is attached to this. Fail.
There were some funny parts, but overall, blah. Too many people, dumb jokes. Hope SNL is better.

Is there anything else to say?
I mean,well I expected it to be a little bit more funny but I dont think it’s worth called ‘die’ !
I loved the video anyway :)
Especially how Vanessa called Zac ‘babe’ at the end ♥
Even with a huge cast, nothing could save this stale attempt at humor.
Too bad so many actors known for their comedic wit went to waste.
I Love It Because of Zanessa!!!!
They are the Couple to Beat.
Love Them More.
Sorry, but the script was poor. I agree with #3. A bunch of “stars” wanting another 15 minutes of fame by jumping on the “funny or die” bandwagon. Tom and Nicole S. deserve better material - they were the only good ones in the video.
Err this wasn’t funny at all. I just liked how Nicole and Joel said the wedding thing lol. And how Vanessa looked at the uncle’s partner when she touched Zac’s a.ss. But this was a big fat DIE
was that supposed to be funny? i didn’t laugh once.
It was a disappointment i was expecting something much better. More comedic elements, better acting (Nicole and Joel got on my nerves) Vanessa Hudgens is not born to do comedy acting it just does not suit her. Vanessa is better at romantic roles and it will be interesting to see how she does in Sucker Punch because that is an action film. Zac was the highlight of this, there should have been more of him because in the little bits that he did do he acted great. I really feel that Zac Efron has great career in front of him. I like Vanessa but i think she has had her 5 minutes of fame even though i would love to see her have a great career.
haha, <3 Zanessa
haha, <3 Zanessa
jaja no lo entendi mucho pero zac es mu¡y lindo!!! zanessa 4ever
it was funny zac was smokin hotttttttttttt
That wasn’t funny at all?
I love this video! Thomas and Nicole were hilarious!
i wasted 4:55 of my life.. efron please give me back my time for watching your horrible video
Not Funny at all.
Wow some of you children are ridiculously biased. Sorry to burst your Spongebob bubbles but Zac was NOT the highlight of this at all. If anything, Tom Lennon and Nicole Sullivan stole the show.
It wasn’t really that funny. I probably cracked a few smiles, but nothing major.. I love Justin Long’s cameos though. High-larious.
I love Zac and all, but he was sort of blah on this one. Vanessa, like usual, was even more blah-er. What is up with that girl’s whiny voice, really?
Uncle Hank and his girlfriend wasn’t that funny either. They were kind of annoying in a non-humorous way. They were just …..? Yeah.
I do love the ending though. I really like Zanessa. They make the cutest couple. But Vanessa needs to work on her annoyingness, specifically her voice. Friendly advice: Get a speech teacher to fix that whiny voice of yours.
XOXO!!!
is funny.. :)
Vanessa look so Hot..!
i liked justin the best, but this was not funny at all.
Funny
@emma:
Emma i get where you are coming from but i don’t think vanessa has had her 5 minutes of fame. She is famous. People usually underestimate the potential of others but i understand. I don’t hink that high school musical is it for her. If she plays her cards right she can have a great career.
People have to realise that zac isn’t guaranteed either. You can be famous one day and the next day you’re not. its like that for every celebrity except for a select few. i think zac and vanessa both know that and are trying their best and are working hard.
Vanessa has a movie coming out and two movies in the works. Hopefully they’ll do well but we never know. She might surprise us!!! :D
DIE.
Love Zac, Vanessa, Joel, Nicole and some others. But this wasn’t funny AT ALL.
All the stars were great, only the store line sucked. That uncle and his girlfriend where not that Hilarius.
XO
He looks so much like Brent Corrigan, who I have a total crush on. LOL
I enjoyed it and found some scenes funny. I loved Van’s scenes especially the last one. I really cracked up then. I thought she delivered right on point.
I loved Thomas Lennon, Nicole Sullivan and Justin Long’s scenes as well. They made the vid enjoyable for me. I also liked Queen Latifah’s one liner.
I thought Zac was really given the opportunity to be funny here so he didn’t really do much for me.
All in all, I thought they did okay with what they had to work with. At least they had a blast filming it.
The great thing about videos like this is that we can all express our opinions and biases on blogs, in the end, the people that matter in hollywood will watch it and decide for themselves who displayed potential or not.
I guess solid offers/roles actresses and actors get are the real indicators of how the industry views them not biased opinions on blogs which do not influence anything important.
oh yeah and by the way, not everybody is going to find this clip funny. we all have different tastes. so if someone finds it funny and you don’t it doesn’t mean their stupid, it just means they have different taste to you.
A lot of people are watching this clip already experiencing hatred for zac efron and vanessa hudgens. if u don’t like them then don’t waste your time. problem solved.
oh yeah and paulita88…
whats she supposed to do, magically change the way she sounds!! she talks like that, get over it!! it annoys the heck out of me when ppl say that. gosh!! Her voice will mature eventually!!
I meant Zac *wasn’t given* in my above post.
Just to add, I think the editing and scripting were more to blame. There was not much funny to work with.
HALLELUJA, is zac he dying now, folks?
(maybe america isn’t bankrupt any longer?)
HAHAHAHA!
omg so funny.
love vannesa, zac and jessica :)
love V in this video she was totally awsome sho do have a wonderfull career ahead of her ,funny funny funny
I loved it! I thought that it was very funny! I love how the people they used all got face time! I didn’t think it would happen because there were so many wonderful people in it but they did it! I thought that it was so funny and I love both Zac and Vanessa! I thought that they both did wonderful in this! “I’m so proud of you” - Vanessa to Lance. That was cute. And the uncle and girlfriend were too hilarious!! So funny! Britney Snow and Queen!! It was like a Hairspray reuinion with them and Zack! I loved it! Great job guys!!!
Quote of the week: “I didn’t know they had golf courses in Mexico!!!!” - Becky Buckwild “I Love Money”
big fat stoooopid.
Could you imagine having one of your embarrassing relatives showing up like that? Definitely made you feel just how uncomfortable you’d be! Zac was hilarious and V’s last line……….ahhhh……….so gross, so funny! And Justin ………sick, dude, sick! Yep, thot it was funny!
vanessa can’t really act…
and this vid is not that funny
love nicole and tom
DIE, not fun at ALL, i didn’t laugh in any moment but Vanessa is sweet :)
And the obssession with Vanessa continues.
If in doubt, blame Vanessa, even if you didn’t watch it, it’s safer to blame Vanessa.
In a skit full of supposedly more talented people, everybody clicked play to focus on the ‘no talent’ and determine with two lines whether she can act or not.
How painfully obvious the obssession.
I guess in a way it’s a compliment, in the company of so many longer established celebrities, she stood out.
People can barely remember the names of all the others but they noticed Vanessa, falling over themselves to type her name and think of what to append to it.
I thought it was funny, but it was obviously the “Hank and Randi” show. Not the Zac Efron show.
Neither Zac, Vanessa nor anyone else had that much to do.
Maybe Tom Lennon wrote the script. :)
KRAAAAAAPPPPPPP!!!!
WHY WASTE OUR TIME AND THEIR TIME. BOTH ZACK AND THAT GIRL SUCK, WHERE WOULD THEY B WITHOUT THE TWEENS?
PROB WORKIN AT MCDEES!
Was this sopost to be funny?
I did not laugh at all. What a waste. Plus Vanessa PLEASE get some acting skills and fast.
lisa
how the hell can u tell v can’t act when she had 2 lines 2 say
either u ppl don’t like her and u insist on pickin on her…
u can’t determine whether someone can’t do comedies or act with 2 lines!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It wasn’t completely lame but I think I only had a slight giggle once. I guess that’s a DIE.
that was a complete waste of my time. thanks zac!
LoL @ “sopost” these comments are a helluva lot funnier
wow good thing they had good pr.
that hype was for the lack of comedy in that video.
that was awful. and of course so was vanessa with her 2 lines.
brittney snow???just jared
BRITTANY SNOW! dammit learn her name
the vid could be more funny
very disappointing…
the whole thing is just based on how many cool celebs they can cram into a 5 min vid…. boring.
all the big hype and promotion about this was wasted. nicole and tom were good. justin long had a funny part too. the rest wasn’t that funny.
I thought it was funny, especially the end part.
And I don’t get how some of you can base Vanessa’s comedy skills in this video, if you don’t think that she can be funny and hilarious when she puts that side in then go back and watch Vanessa’s guest staring role as Corrie in 4 epi. Of ‘Suite Life…’, if she don’t make you laugh in that I feel sorry for you. Bottom line, it’s too soon to say that any of the young HSM cast can’t do something at this point, let them grow and try new things first.
I thought is was hilarious, their faces were priceless. Everyone has
an embarrasing relative that they don’t want their friends to meet, and
this is exactly what would happen. loved the end.
I though it was fuuny the uncle and the gf were hillarious all the other stars were great 2 Vanessa at the end had me laughing though!
The script wasn’t really that great. I LOVE Zac and Vanessa and thought they did great with what they were given. I didn’t really find anything funny to be honest.
Some moments i actually thought were funny: “you smell like waffles” only because it was completely random. The face Vanessa made when Hanks girlfriends squeezed Efron’s a**. The part where the girlfriend thinks she’s peeing COULD have been funny if she said, instead of peeing, her water broke. I don’t get why they didn’t say that instead but whatever. And when Vanessa told Lance “i’m proud of you” because i thought it was funny and because i actually like Vanessa.
By the way, i think Vanessa can act. Those saying she can’t either don’t like her or don’t like the whole High School Musical franchise.
V did look hot but the whole thing was just….not cool
i liked it very much, i think it was pretty funny!
gosh you guys are a bunch of jerks, it was funny and if you don’t like pelase don’t be so that rude, you guys know how much it hurts? you guys don’t do nothing for you silly lifes and you are there judging, gosh this really hurts and you know what, if you judge people you have no time to love them. Really guys don’t be so rude. Think in yourself before you say something about them, you will see that you even not have premision from yourselfs to say rude things about them. Think in that please. I love you Zac and Vanessa you are my life I love you so so much I wish you the best! I love you xoxo <333333333
DIE!!!!!!!
And Vanessa sucks big time
I like Zac and Vanessa but this Video Sucked.
vanessa is so adorable! her last line was funny
The unabashed obsession with Vanessa continues as always people debating what her whole 1 minute of dialogue says about her talent (NOTHING). How she looks, the sound of her voice etc.
I’m of a mind to believe Vanessa is far and away more famous than Zac if this board is any indication. LOL
And for all of silly gooses who keep saying she’’s smug even though you’ve never met her - well Mr. Shankman seems to have an answer for you.
I like Vanessa and Zac Efron but I am not Obsessed with them being a couple. If they break up I will still support both of them.
MTV liked it:
http://newsroom.mtv.com/2009/04/08/zac-efron-makes-his-funny-or-die-debut-with-some-help-from-his-friends/
Not the funniest video but i think that was because i expected much more. Did manage a chuckle here and there but thought Vanessa’s last line was great!
Just annoying to see some people picking on Vanessa, as if she was the only person who could do wrong. What…her voice…gosh talk about being envious….i can name a ton other hollywood names whose voices are a hundred fold more annoying, but no one picks on them…cause….they’re not hooked up with Zac nor as pretty as Vanessa. And acting abilities, can you judge with a few minutes screen time? Jealousy does speak volumes.
That girl gets a lot of slack, and it takes a confident and great character not to be fazed by it and walk with her head up high. Sure she has a long way to go as an actress but heck she’s only 20. She’s definitely got better from the days of her cameo roles in ‘The Suite life’, more genuine and believeable.
So like some of the other sensible ones have said….if you don’t like them, change the channel, flip the page and buzz off cause really it only says a lot about you than them.
I didn’t laugh once
DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE
LOL. Things are soo obvious it’s funny. I’m not gonna say it because I know the directors aren’t going to blind to this. All I’m gonna say is, “Van, work it girl”. :)
This was absolutely nothing like the description from last week. No one died in a pool, Rolls Royce where? WTH.
#71 AMEN to what you said.
At first I wasn’t sure if I thought it was funny…then looking at it, I felt I was looking at a home video…NOW tell me, who doesn’t know a friend or a relative that is a party disaster!!! That was hilarious! And the dead guy in the pool…did anyone notice how Zac looked at the pool when he heard a splash…not that they showed anyone in it at the time, but there was the uh, “dead guy in the pool” scene…and I thought his reaction to his relatives were cool…if he’d done more, it would have seemed like he was acting…Thomas Lennon and Nicole, who plays his girlfriend were hilarious….I liked everyone in their scenes.
Hopefully, young Hollywood isn’t really that blah, that they sit around talking politics and all…lol…There was improvisation and comic relief from Thomas Lennon, Nicole, and the guy in the pool…I would like to see more…
Easily, die. I can’t believe these “actors” make millions. Poor display of acting and writing.
i thought it was as funny as a lot of other funny or die videos. i just wished it had focused more on zac. with all the promotions the shoot got in the past few weeks, i thought zac would have more funny lines.
I think with all the build up for this, a lot of people expected a stellar comedic performance from Zac. Instead, it was a parody on a “nut case” uncle and his gf crashing Zac’s party. So, yes, that was hilarious. I think a lot of people are disappointed that “Hank and Randi” are the stars of the skit and not Zac.
I actually liked Vanessa and Zac’s acting. But the script was awful. it’s not really funny that video
Oh, I’ll say no more, I liked this skit, and it’s more real than sick comedy that sometimes makes no sense at all…It was funny definitely…even with the dead guy in the pool.
The only one who seemed like they were acting was Vanessa.
i liked it i thought it was funny
lol i thought it was pretty funny
i mean it could have been much better but it was still good
both of them werent really funny
it was that guy and the chick from mad tv
nice ending tho lol
vanessa look cuted btw! =p
I don’t like this video. It’s not funny at all!!!!! (sorry for zac’s fan but i don’t like his way of acting) : sorry for my english i’m french :)
I don’t like this video. It’s not funny at all!!!!! (sorry for zac’s fan but i don’t like his way of acting) : sorry for my english i’m french :)
I don’t like this video. It’s not funny at all!!!!! (sorry for zac’s fan but i don’t like his way of acting) : sorry for my english i’m french :)
that was no where near funny…
# 71 you said it perfectly. The more I watch the funnier it gets.
v was cute and i love her giving the ***** face.
die
not funny… nicole sullivan made it bareable to watch…
this is just pointless.. why did they decide to make this? was it to make people laugh?! because if it is, its a failure!
i think if shia labeouf was zac it would of been so funny
OMG PLEASE PLEASE DIE IT STINKS
The part at the end with Justin Long and the **** was DISGUSTING…but the rest of it was Hilarious! Queen Latifah’s hair was sooo CUTE!!! And I loved the part when the pregnant woman thought she was peeing. Lmao.
Justin was funny until the last part. but alas. it’s defintately a DIE. tried wayyyy too hard
Lawl! “Babe! Your uncle Hank took another poop in the hot tub!” Only liked that part.. An overall DIE!
i loved this video, it was hilarious ! especially vanessa at the end. i can’t believe brody jenner was there ! & jessica stroup (((: love them
BABE YOU UNCLE POOPED IN THE HOT TUB AGAIN!
Vanessa is awesome *-*
lame. vanessa just cant act. i dont understand her lack of talent
i love everyone in this vid
but the scrip was bad…i’m sure they could have done a better one
but i don’t find many of the funny or die vids funny they are all die
i think it was just meant to be awkward or something
idk
but A for effort
love zac and vanessa, nicole, joel, carmen, justin, brittany, brody, lance etc.
Not all that funny. Justin Long was funny. . . and that was about it.
man justin kept me laughin. and i liked vanessa and zac parts too. all in all pretty good video
This wasn’t funny at all… Vanessa sucked too. She can’t act !!!!
of course Hater are here again.
Zanessa Is the Best!!!!
lol i luv dis video…..
so funny
i luv zac n nessa 4 eva
smart ideas
MEH
had potential. i was probably expecting too much. it was ok.
absolutely looooooooove zac, always hot!
and vanessa too
but ive seen waay funnier, i was disappointed :[
some funny but overall ehh…
Who was that girl in the pink bikini? The one whose Zac’s uncle asked who were her friends meaning her boobs?
Isn’t she the girl from Privileged? The Headmaster’s ex gf?
And what’s her real name?
THANKS.
DIE…especially zac efron..vannessa can go to while we r at it
LOL at those people picking on Vanessa eventhough she is not even the star of this video. Oh well, I need not say more but good job Vanessa!
oh and yeah, I enjoyed the video, some scenes are funny and the end part with Zac and Vanessa was just priceless!! Tom, Nicole and Justin are awesome!
i just died. i didnt find it the least bit funny
i just died. i didnt find it the least bit funny
I love Tom Lennon and from the clips I’ve seen from 17 Again I think he may easily steal scenes from Zac. However, I found him totally annoying in this video as well as Nicole the girl who played his girlfriend.
What I find the funniest about this video is how so many want to jump right in there to find fault with Vanessa. To me, the video jumped from one celebrity to another until you could barely focus on just who you were seeing before someone else popped up. So, who could you tell if any of these people could act or be comedic? It was not Vanessa OR Zac’s fault this was not funny. However, I found Vanessa the best person in it. Even though it was suppose to be a pool party at Zac’s I didn’t find Zac had much at all to do except react once in a while and have the camera get a quick glimpse of him once in a while.
The best part I found in the whole video was from the point where Tom—Uncle Hank—came up to tell Zac he loved him and how he felt uncomfortable with his fancy friends until the end when Vanessa delivered her line and back to Zac. And all the insults to Vanessa for her speaking voice—can’t you people find new material to try to insult her with? It’s like the Zac thread for the promos of SNL when everyone is going on about how much makeup he has on which is another overused insult that everyone uses when they don’t know what else to say to be hateful. Face it, there isn’t too much to use against these two young people and that is why some of you are so mad in the first place. And trust me, it shows.
Zac nor Vanessa should be to blame for a bad script. We need to call Shankman on that and Tom Lennon who I have read did a lot of ad libbing and much of it was cut. Perhaps the stuff that was cut was better as Tom is really a funny guy and is a good writer—usually.
MY last comment should read that Zac and Vanessa should NOT be to blame for a bad script.
waaaaaaaaaaaaaw i just love it i just dont get bored from wachin’ it over and over i liked at the end when vanessa was talking and the way zac was looking in the video….well to b ehonest i didnt care about the rest i was just looking at zac and vanessa and how v said “babe” it was awesome….i just love them sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much and its way funny pool party it dosent worth to be die..good job guys im proud of ya…keep going
eh, I’m gonna go with die.
Vanessa IS a good actress. Comedy just isn’t her thing.
Like somebody said, romantic films suit her.
Good think she’s pretty!
I like what Adam Shankman said about Zac and Vanessa not come across as people who think they are entitled to something and that they were grateful. Loved the mental picture I got of Vanessa taking out the trash and Zac doing the dishes! LOL
I have to say, there were definitely funny parts, but could have been SO much funnier with a better script! How ridiculous that people think Vanessa can’t do comedy, based on 2 lines, which I thought were delivered just fine!
I just love the part where vanessa calls zac babe. :)
Vanessa was really good in this what is your problem? Just because she is’nt fully white you have to bash her well if that’s the type of America you stand for then you can go to hell.
funnyy.,
all you people that say it wasted your time then why the hell are you cmmnting?
haha vanessa and brittany LOL
x
