Do you like movies about ninjas, sharks, or fighting? How about all three mixed together?!

Asia’s richest man, Mukesh Ambani, has announced plans to re-launch Campa Cola. The soda first hit shelves in the 1970s, and became so popular it once rivaled Coca-Cola and Pepsi. This summer, Ambani’s Reliance Group will reintroduce Campa Cola to India’s multibillion-dollar non-alcoholic drink market. The relaunched soft drinks will come in three flavors: cola, lemon, and orange. Soda king Coca-Cola was introduced to the Indian market in the 1950s but was pulled about two decades later when the government put in a regulation that would have required coke to reveal its formula. To be fair, it isn’t really feasible…

Earlier this week, under the cover of darkness, a group of skiers hiked up a 3,000-foot mountain at the Alyeska Resort in Alaska. They used the full moon to guide their way up the Tea Cup Bowl, to marvel at its breathtaking majesty. Just kidding, they drew a MASSIVE penis in the snow at the top of the mountain. The next day social media was lighting up with pictures of the adult version of a snow angel. Guests, or just the resort itself, were so mortified they dispatched a helicopter to remove it. The problem is, the chopper did come,…

The hashtag “Cocaine Shark” has now been replaced by “Cocaine Cat.” Both being sarcastic plays on the wildly popular new movie “Cocaine Bear.” The new horror comedy is based on a case in the 1980s of a black bear that ingested a duffle bag full of coke. In real life, the bear passed away, but in the movie, it goes on a killing spree. The hashtag hit last month when New Zealand police found 3.5 tons of cocaine floating in the Pacific Ocean. While no coked-up sharks were reported, the meme/film pitch would be based on a “what if” scenario. …

Fossil Daddy is a truly unique Instagram account, that uses humor with a splash of sex appeal to teach viewers about paleontology. His account originally started out with faceless images and videos about fossils. But he has since evolved into thirst traps of himself unloading some very stimulating science. The creator’s unique brand of wit and sex appeal quickly amassed a large following but rubbed others the wrong way.  This is why Fossil Daddy chooses to only use a pseudonym, for privacy concerns for his family. Not only are many creationists not happy that he is showing science that debunks…

Now horror movies and sequels/full-on franchises go together like peanut butter and jelly.

The magical micro-genre of horror movies about drug-fueled animal attacks is growing! First, we had Elizabeth Banks’ “Cocaine Bear,” then Asylum Films announced “Attack of the Meth Gator.” But as of today, Wild Eye Releasing just dropped a trailer for  “Cocaine Shark.”  But the thing is, it’s not the same “Cocaine Shark” that had Twitter abuzz a few weeks ago. That concept was going to be (semi) based on a news story about the New Zealand police finding 3.5 tons of cocaine floating in a remote part of the Pacific Ocean. While no coked-up sharks were reported, it would be…

Bob Odenkirk (“Better Call Saul”) will star in a remake of Tommy Wiseau’s “The Room,” shot mostly on greenscreen. Yes, there will be a remake of what many consider to be one of the worst films ever made. But through its notoriety for being nonsensical shlock, and Wiseau’s eccentric personality, it has gained a ravenous cult following among film fans and meme lords alike. The cult love for “The Room” is so intense it even spawned 2017’s “The Disaster Artist.” Which starred James Franco, and told the story of how such an odd film even came to be. This year,…
