‘Deadpool 2’ (And Cable) Coming To A Theater Near You In May 2018 (Trailer)
February 8, 2018
“Deadpool” was an epic cinematic bonus chapter of the Marvel Entertainment movie anthology. Take that part seriously, but not much else… even the serious characters. Like Cable: serious dude. But in this wacky Wade Wilson world, best believe you will be getting in quite a few chuckles.
After surviving a near-fatal bovine attack, a disfigured cafeteria chef (Wade Wilson) struggles to fulfill his dream of becoming Mayberry’s hottest bartender while also learning to cope with his lost sense of taste. Searching to regain his spice for life, as well as a flux capacitor, Wade must battle ninjas, the yakuza, and a pack of sexually aggressive canines, as he journeys around the world to discover the importance of family, friendship, and flavor – finding a new taste for adventure and earning the coveted coffee mug title of World’s Best Lover.
– 20th Century Fox
See? Can’t even be serious in the trailer write-up.
(Sidebar: How did Josh Brolin land the role of Thanos AND this Cable role?? Those are some huge Marvel characters; with a huge chasm between them in the Universe.)

It’s 2018. And Our Sisters Are Still Suffering. ‘Colorism’ Is Real, And A Real Issue Among Black People (Documentary Trailer)
February 7, 2018
You hear the music, and your mind goes right to “The Story Of O.J.” sample, doesn’t it? Light n!gga, dark n!gga, rich n!gga, poor n!gga… still n!gga. Sure it’s a song with meaning, but this doc right here means to pack a cultural punch! Wow.
Watch the trailer for “Charcoal” and be amazed. And a bit sad. It’s okay that it is not okay. Feel it and grow from it as a person, as a people.

When Designing A City, Maybe We Should Get Kids’ Input. After All, It Will Be Theirs Soon Enough (Video)
February 7, 2018
You know that song by Whitney that goes, “I believe that children are our future”… Put that on play in your mind as the backing track for this TEDx Talk.
As adults, we think of kids as “future citizens.” Their ideas and opinions will matter someday, but not today — there must be a reason the voting age is 18, right? But kids make up 25% of the population — shouldn’t we include them in some important conversations? In this inspiring talk, urban planner Mara Mintzer wonders what would happen if we let children design our cities. Mara Mintzer is a founder and the director of Growing Up Boulder.
– TEDx Talks
Makes sense. The kids will ‘inherit’ these cities. Maybe they should have say so.

Taking “The Pizza Show” On The Road… To Detroit (Video)
February 6, 2018
“Hey bruh, let’s get a slice” are words you have heard, or at least understand folks saying, in New York… and Chicago… and Detroit… and (record screeches, whimsical background music stops)… Wait what!!
Detroit might be known as the motor city, but it’s also the pizza city. Our host Frank Pinello heads west to try out the thick-crusted, rectangular pies unique to the city. We start our tour with the classics—Buddy’s, Cloverleaf, and Loui’s—before heading to some of Detroit’s newer spots like Amar Pizza and Suppino Pizzeria. And it wouldn’t be a trip to Detroit without a visit to one of the most infamous pizza names to come out of the Mitten State—Little Caesars. Motown is definitely the dough town.

Donald Glover Goes Where Only Billy Dee Williams Has Gone Before In This New “Star Wars” Story (Trailer)
February 6, 2018
Watch the new teaser trailer for Solo: A Star Wars Story and see it in theaters May 25. #HanSolo pic.twitter.com/4QSJUPi8SO
— Star Wars (@starwars) February 5, 2018
Memorial Day release date. Doooope! Wonder why someone did not think of this before. Well, they probably did; which is why we get this movie gem in a few short months. “Solo” is a Star Wars Story that folks loyal to the canon NEED in their lives. Han Solo has been, at best, an ancillary character in the stories told as part of the SW franchise thus far. Why not put him front and center in a flick.
What’s great about this is that all the folks involved are likely attached for love of the story. Gotta imagine back when Harrison Ford was Han, he had no idea just how big these stories that happened long, long ago in a galaxy far, far away could get. But bet good money that Donald Glover (playing Lando Calrissian) knows.
We are NOT in ‘Atlanta’ anymore. Definitely. Ha! Enjoy the trailer.

Prosthesis is an 8,000-pound, 15 foot tall, 18 foot wide, exoskeleton that is completely controlled by a human operator. It’s the world’s first racing “mech” (a class of tech that includes robots or machines controlled by people). Built by Furrion.
I mean. I know it’s tech. But it’s a BEAST, too!

Uno Bolt: The Electric Unicycle (Video)
February 5, 2018
This is cool commuter/recreation travel tech all by itself, but I am going to embed some “Spiral Zone” after the jump so that y’all might understand why this has me so geeked up!
This is the Uno Bolt, the first electric unicycle with built-in stabilizers. You can turn by leaning, accelerate by leaning forward and leaning back to slow down. The top speed is 22 mph, has a 25-mile range and fully charges in 45 minutes. An LED display shows distance, speed and battery percentage. It is equipped with an all-terrain tire and can climb hills up to 45 degrees. The lever can be used to reverse and break instantly. The LED lights can light up the night. A Kickstarter campaign is underway for Uno Bolt. One can be yours for $1,000. Now go explore, one wheel at a time.

Matt Maxey Brings Hip-Hop To The Hearing Impaired Using Sign Language (Video)
February 5, 2018
Alright, aaaalright. Get past the use of “Deaf Jam” as the title. This is actually a really cool story. Side note: Gotta be something to the whole Chance The Rapper being associated with stories that matter to the Hip-Hop Nation. Just an observation.
Although he’s had profound hearing loss his entire life, Matt Maxey didn’t learn to sign until he was 18 years old. He began to practice his ASL by signing along to the lyrics of his favorite artists and uploading videos to YouTube. Now, as the CEO and founder of DEAFinitely Dope, he’s translating hip-hop music alongside artists like Chance the Rapper and D.R.A.M.
