Favourite Movie Pranks for April Fools

Our prank-loving Bunchbrary

If anyone seems overly eager to help you on Friday, tries to get you to sign a petition to save the lion finch, or tries convincing you to book a vacation to San Serriffe Island, remember that it’s April Fools’ Day. Just to keep you on your toes, so you know what sort of schemes people are capable of, we’ve rounded up some of our favourite movie pranks.

1. Ferris Bueller’s Day Off (1986)

 

So many pranks in this movie! There’s the faking sick, the deleting of the sick days, the stealing of Abe Froman’s lunch reservation and that most fun-loving prank, hijacking a Von Steuben Day parade float and lip-synching to the Beatles. If someone is a master prankster or righteous dude, like Ferris, you really don’t want to side against them on April Fools’ Day. You don’t want to be the Edward Rooney.
