I saw Zack at the UCB theater on Doug Bensons podcast taping about 3-5 years ago and though it wasn't his "standup" he was hilarious. I wish I had the stones to get up and do that kind of stuff. I am forever indebted to the ones that can and can do it well.

That's awesome. I would kill to see him live. Out Cold, though a bad movie, came out when I was in 7th grade and my friends and I loved it. Especially Zach. I've been following him since then, and although I'm glad he's getting recognition, I'm disappointed that I probably won't get to see him do standup live anytime soon. Every chance I've had fell through.

It is unfortunate that the only good movie that he has done is the hangover but I think that his rising stardom is good for his career as he will now be able to get more leading roles where his brand of humor will be encouraged rather than squashed. When he had his late night comedy talk show vh1 pretty much killed any chance he had of being funny with all the things he was forbidden to make fun of. Hopefully that changes.
