HAPPYTIME MURDERS looks crude, rude, and like an instant hit
HAPPYTIME MURDERS starts getting some early press and early reviews..
THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER:
Brian Henson — son of the late Muppets creator Jim Henson and director of The Muppet Christmas Carol and Muppet Treasure Island— is back behind the camera in a new puppet-centric film, The Happytime Murders.
Unlike Henson’s previous endeavors, Happytime Murders certainly isn’t kid-friendly — and the NSFW debut trailer proves that.
BLOODY DISGUSTING:
The comedy is set in the underbelly of a Los Angeles where puppets and humans co-exist. Two clashing detectives, one human (Melissa McCarthy) and one puppet, are forced to work together to figure out who is brutally murdering the former cast of The Happytime Gang, a beloved classic puppet show.
Tweets came pouring in after the trailer was shown with Collider’s Steve Weintraubexplaining, “It ended with something as filthy as I’ve ever seen in a red band trailer and I loved every second of it.”

The big island is getting ready to blow?
Today, explosive eruption at Kilauea's summit sent an ash plume soaring 30,000 feet into the air, and officials warn that ongoing emissions — and future eruptions — could send ash falling over significant portions of the Big Island...
The observatory said residents living along the path of the ash plume should take shelter, and maintained a code red aviation alert signaled on Tuesday, meaning no air traffic was permitted in the area.
"At any time, activity may again become more explosive, increasing the intensity of ash production and producing ballistic projectiles near the vent," it said in a statement.
The ring of honor gets a crowd
The defecating woman
A woman defecated inside of a Tim Hortons restaurant in Canada and threw her feces at an employee after she grew irate during an argument.
The woman, who remains unnamed, was arrested Monday by Royal Canadian Mounted Police in Langley, British Columbia, where the fast food restaurant where the incident occurred is located, according to The Province.
According to knowledge now known: The store denied her access to the bathroom. She took matters into her own hands with an act of civil poop-obedience .. And then grabbed the fecal matter and threw it at the store worker. Before leaving, she used store napkins to wipe her backside...
The world now watching one of the most famous bowel movements to ever be caught on camera..
The Yanny Laurel Mandela Effect?
The Green Mile is a long road
The Russian government claims Koku Istambulova is the world's oldest person.
But she has bluntly said her longevity "was God's will" and she "did nothing to make it happen". While some people chalk it up to a healthy or active lifestyle, "tired" Koku said: "I have no idea how I lived until now."
Koko is set to turn 129 in two weeks... and she added: “I have not had a single happy day in my life."
Now that is something surely to look forward to. The Golden Years.... raining down on you.
The day the sun dies

Scientists work out what will happen when the sun dies
Professor Albert Zijslra says, ‘When a star dies it ejects a mass of gas and dust – known as its envelope – into space.
‘The envelope can be as much as half the star’s mass. This reveals the star’s core, which by this point in the star’s life is running out of fuel, eventually turning off and before finally dying.
‘It is only then the hot core makes the ejected envelope shine brightly for around 10,000 years – a brief period in astronomy. This is what makes the planetary nebula visible.
‘Some are so bright that they can be seen from extremely large distances measuring tens of millions of light years, where the star itself would have been much too faint to see.’
Don’t let your yanny rest on it’s laurel
This is the new dress of the year!! Laurel vs Yanny. For the record, the hears at Front Page Aliens heard Laurel. Friends who listen hear yanny. Someone who initially heard laurel suddenly changed his pitch and now hears yanny.
This debate is surely set to get really ugly.
The Deacon returns to Coast to Coast AM
It was great to hear the Deacon once against on Coast to Coast AM last night.. Ian Punnett, the weekly fixture in many Coast fans’ lives for years, was afflicted with tinnitus and was forced to leave..
Now it seems he will be occasionally back again.
Last night he brought back his style and bad puns with an array of strangeness about desert cryptids and oddities.
Exactly what late night paranormal/strange radio should be all about.
Looking forward to hearing more from Ian Punnett.
High anxiety in the ring of fire
High anxiety in the ring of fire …
The West Coast is home to an 800-mile (1,300-kilometer) chain of 13 volcanoes , from Washington state’s Mount Baker to California’s Lassen Peak. They include Mount St. Helens, whose spectacular 1980 eruption in the Pacific Northwest killed dozens of people and sent volcanic ash across the country, and massive Mount Rainier, which towers above the Seattle metro area.
And suddbely people along the west coast are worried that some of volcanoes may get active, thanks for the effect from the Hawaiian eruptions..
According to the Associated Press:
Mount Rainier eruptions in the distant past have caused destruction as far west as Puget Sound, some 50 miles (80 kilometers) away.
The volcano hasn’t produced a significant eruption in the past 500 years. But it remains dangerous because of its great height, frequent earthquakes, active hydrothermal system, and 26 glaciers, experts said.
An eruption on Mount Rainier could rapidly melt glaciers, triggering huge mudflows — called lahars — that could reach the densely populated surrounding lowlands, Westby said.
