The X-Men join the MCU in 2022!

After much negotiation, Fox and Marvel have final reached an agreement to bring all of the X-men characters into the Marvel Cinematic Universe for the rest of the phases of movies. I hope you enjoy these movies. I cannot wait to see all of these characters together in one place. The first movie is slated to release on April 1, 2022. That is going to be huge. You could almost say an undertaking like this would be foolish. Wow... I can't wait for that foolish undertaking in April.

Yes... this was an April Fool's Joke

The Simpsons Marathon on FXX

FXX has been taking advantage of one of the strongest and most popular shows on television by showing every Simpsons episode...ever. With the Simpsons marathon nearing an end, I thought I would just write a few things that I enjoyed watching and reminiscing.

Why I enjoyed The Simpsons Marathon:

1. The humor - It has been so much fun to re-watch a cartoon with such clever humor and well-timed gags.
2. The family - The way the Simpsons interact is great. Yes, they have struggles, but they seem to still care about one another. You can really see these strong relationships when watching them back to back.
3. The original openings - I know that some people are really obsessed with the openings, but I had forgotten most of them. When you watch them consecutively, you are able to compare them and can truly see the cleverness.
4. Homer Simpson - Yes, he is an idiot sometimes, but he does adore his family.

Well, if you missed the marathon, don't worry! It looks like FXX will continue to be the Simpson-powered channel. For now, on Mondays and Fridays, the channel will air a Simpsons block from 6 pm - midnight. Every Tuesday and Thursday will have an 8 pm - midnight block. Sundays will have the longest block with a 7-hour slot running from 4 pm - midnight. They are also planning holiday-themed marathons all throughout the year.

Just For a Laugh

This little joke has been around for long time now but the first time I saw this I loved it and laughed so hard.

I promise you that you will never look at a hand dryer the same again. How better everything would be with a magic BACON dispenser. 

"Weird Al" is the King of Parodies

I was very excited to see that Weird Al had returned with a new album. I have been a fan since the early 1980's when my friend introduced me to this amazing artist. The first song I remember is "Eat It".

Alfred Matthew Yankovic has been making people laugh since 1976. He has sold over 12 million albums.

In a world of YouTube and Facebook, Weird Al still stands out! He is not just a person making a funny song. He is a comedic genius making a parody. His songs show both class and thought. Many people who make parodies today just look for something that they can exploit and get a few laughs. Weird Al creates songs that make you think and enjoy yourself. He not only parodies the music and lyrics but he also parodies the sound and style of the words. 

"Weird Al" please keep doing what you are doing. I will never forget having to pull over to the side of the road and compose myself before I could continue driving the first time I heard "A Complicated Song". 

In my opinion you are the king at what you do... and what you do is entertain!
