A Mysterious “Ping” that is Definitely Not an Alien Distress Signal is Emanating from Deep in the Arctic

Although both The Thing and Alien vs. Predator started with a bunch of misguided humans responding to a signal of unknown origins coming from a cold place, this mysterious “beep” or “hum” is definitely not some kind of crashed alien craft sending out a distress signal and there’s definitely not anything to worry about.

Although now the Canadian Department of National Defence is investigating this strange noise which has scared away all the wildlife usually found in the Fury and Hecla Strait in northernmost Canada, so…maybe it is something.

Just, don’t open anything or set anything free when you find whatever is causing this, okay Canada?

In the New Trailer for The LEGO Batman Movie, Everything is STILL Awesome!

Few movies get absolutely everything right like The LEGO Movie did. Now, Warner Bros. is attempting to get lightning to strike twice with The LEGO Batman Movie, a spin-off film featuring the same LEGO Batman character introduced in the The LEGO Movie.

Although, if these trailers have been any indication, you better get grounded because the lightning is a-comin’!

It’s tough to say what exactly makes this work besides, well, everything. I just hope this isn’t a classic case of the best stuff being put int he trailers.

The LEGO Batman Movie comes out on February 10th, 2017. The perfect Valentine’s Day date!

The New Wonder Woman Trailer is Wondrously Wonderful

Although I’m a staunch defender of the DC Extended Universe movies thus far, I’m in a small minority. However, after the first trailer debuted at Comic Con, and now after this new trailer dropped today, I don’t see anyone with a bad opinion about the upcoming Wonder Woman movie.

It strikes me with a similar vibe as Captain America: The First Avenger, which was awesome in its own right, but this seems to have something extra going on, and I can’t quite pinpoint what it is. In any case, they seem to have gotten Wonder Woman herself exactly right, and the tone definitely feels like more of an uplifting adventure than a dour, existential “murderverse” (as some have called the DC movies up until now).

If anyone can save DC and Warner Bros. from themselves and right the ship while simultaneously winning back the hearts and minds of audiences, it’s the Warrior Princess of the Amazons.

Wonder Woman comes out on June 2nd, 2017.

Break in my Car, Break in my Car, Break in my Car for a Kit Kat Bar.

That was the note Hunter Jobbins, a student at Kansas State University, found after he left his car with the doors unlocked for 15 minutes.

Let’s be honest, under the right circumstances, who wouldn’t go after a lonesome Kit Kat Bar? They’re just so chocolaty, crispy, and delicious…But we digress. The coolest part of the story is, once Hunter tweeted this out, Kit Kat came to the rescue.

November is here, and that means that Movember has begun!

In case you’re unaware, the goal of Movember (or, No-Shave November)is to “change the face of men’s health” and grow awareness of various fatal disease like prostate cancer. You’ll notice men all over celebrating by growing out their facial hair in the form of suave mustaches or epic beards this month, but Business Insider has also provided some tips on how to partake without also looking like unkempt filth.

Primary point: Don’t rock the neckbeard.

I know what you’re thinking: “That would require shaving.” But technically you aren’t shaving your face, you’re having your neck. What, are you telling me you don’t manscape during November either? Actually, don’t answer that…I don’t want to know…

The First Trailer for Logan Makes Us Hurt

It’s been a cacophony of new movie trailers this week. not to be outdone, 20th Century Fox has given us our first look at Logan, the third installment in the Wolverine solo movies…

Although adding Johnny Cash’s rendition of “Hurt” could make a video of me tying my shoes seem like a soul-wrenching experience, it really heightens the feel of this trailer. We also get a good look at “Laura” (aka X-23), an old as dirty dirt Professor X, and plenty more. Also, Wolverine himself looks like absolute crap these days.

I will say this: After having no interest whatsoever in bothering with this movie, I’m suddenly very interested. And that’s saying something considering my hatred of the rancid garbage Old Man Logan comic series this film is allegedly based upon. But we’ll more than likely  just be incredibly disappointed yet again, as we were with those godawful first two movies.

We’ll all know for sure one way or another when Logan hits theaters on March 3rd, 2017.
