Superman disses Batman over the new 'Dawn of Justice' trailer

http://goo.gl/r6filN

We sure have gotten our fair share of amazing movie trailers over the past few weeks. From "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" to "Jurassic World" to "Tomorrowland" to "The Fantastic Four," there has yet to be one that disappoints. The trailer for "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" debuted April 17, and in this hilarious animated short from Daniel Baxter of How it Should Have Ended, Batman and Superman trade jabs as they discuss the new trailer. In the clip, Superman talks about how amazing the trailer is and admitted he watched it about 1,000 times. Batman quickly learns Superman was actually talking about the "Star Wars" trailer and, when Batman asks Superman to talk about their own trailer, Superman responds by telling Batman he was trying a little too hard to be like Ultron from "Avengers: Age of Ultron." What a fun way to parody the next great superhero film! #MWTG325

Netflix officially orders 'Full House' revival for 2016

http://goo.gl/oROHJq

If you were born in the 90's like me, you'd definitely have fond memories of sitting home from school on a sick day and watching The Price is Right, Boy Meets World, and of course, Full House. Last year, Disney announced a spin-off series of the popular Boy Meets World, called Girl Meets World, and now it seems like we are getting the same concept for Full House! Netflix has officially ordered 13 episodes of Fuller House, a multi-camera comedy set to star Candace Cameron-Bure, Jodie Sweetin and Andrea Barber, who played D.J. Tanner, Stephanie Tanner, and Kimmy Gibbler, respectively, in the original series. The show will center on D.J. Tanner-Fuller and her two boys. She is also pregnant, recently widowed, and living in San Francisco. Meanwhile, younger sister Stephanie (Sweetin) is an aspiring musician and best friend Kimmy (Barber) is living life as a single mom to a "feisty" teenage daughter named Ramona. The pair move in to help D.J. raise her family as she prepares for her new addition. According to Netflix, "discussions with Full House stars Bob Saget, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, Dave Coulier and Lori Loughlin regarding guest appearances in Fuller House are ongoing." John Stamos (Uncle Jesse) is set to produce and the show will premiere in 2016. #MWTG325

What actually happens when you crack your knuckles

http://goo.gl/8tQa7c

We've all done it. We have all cracked our knuckles before, but have you ever wondered what is really happening when we hear that sound? Now we know the answer. By using MRI to video-record knuckle cracking in action, researchers have discovered that the unsettling "pop" made by cracking one's knuckles results from the rapid creation of a cavity in the fluid inside the joints.  Study researcher Greg Kawchuk, a professor of rehabilitation medicine at the University of Alberta in Canada, says, "It's a little bit like forming a vacuum. As the joint surfaces suddenly separate, there is no more fluid available to fill the increasing joint volume, so a cavity is created, and that event is what's associated with the sound." Using MRI, the researchers recorded what happened inside Fryer's joint in real time as each of his fingers was pulled slowly until the joints cracked. The creation of a cavity in the synovial fluid (the fluid between the joints) made the sound. "The ability to crack your knuckles could be related to joint health," said Kawchuk. "It may be that we can use this new discovery to see when joint problems begin long before symptoms start, which would give patients and clinicians the possibility of addressing joint problems before they begin."

All the deep connections to Walt Disney's vision in 'Tomorrowland'

http://goo.gl/yaYHP1

"Many of the things that seem impossible now... will become realities tomorrow." -- Walt Disney

All of us are familiar with the visionary genius of Walt Disney, the man behind Mickey Mouse, DisneyLand, and Walt Disney Studios. Mr. Disney had an extraordinary imagination as to what the future would hold for the human race including rapid mass transit, robotics, and space travel. It's hard to believe he died in 1966, three years before humans would land on the moon and decades before many of his dreams would become realities. Now, the latest extension of Walt Disney's vision comes to us via a new film entitled Tomorrowland. The film, directed by Brad Bird, is action-adventure movie that plays with the idea that Walt's theme-park attraction was a front for something much, much more advanced. "In our modern world," Disney says, "everywhere we look, we see the influence science has on our daily lives." That goes for on-screen, too. In this featurette, we see Bird, co-writer Damon Lindelof, George Clooney, and Walt Disney make the deep connection between the man, the park, the movie and the vision. Tomorrowland hits theaters nationwide on May 22. #MWTG325

Use Facebook’s new Messenger site on your Mac’s desktop with this app

http://goo.gl/wt8kCS

I've always wondered when Facebook was going to establish a laptop-friendly app for its messenger. Now here it is! Facebook has unveiled a new site for its Messenger app that brings the experience you know from mobile to the Web, but Facebook didn’t release an official desktop app. However, a group of developers has made a small app available that makes the Messenger site act like a desktop app on OS X. It has the look and feel of a native application and includes the expected featuress like desktop notifications so you get the full experience. The app is open source and the group isn’t affiliated with Facebook in any way, so be prepared for the occasional weird glitch. Perhaps Facebook will release its own desktop app soon, but this is a step in the right direction! #MWTG325

Brontosaurus finally gets its name back

http://goo.gl/KGEy8o

A victory for the Brontosaurus! One of the most iconic now has its name back in the history books, having regained its status as a unique genus and species. The reclassification appears to resolve a long-standing debate over what to do with Brontosaurus ("thunder lizard" in Greek), which looked a lot like the dinosaur Apatosaurus. This similarity caused paleontologists to rename Brontosaurus as Apatosaurus excelsus because is was considered to have been another type of Apatosaurus. Roger Benson, from the University of Oxford, and his colleagues used statistical approaches to calculate the differences between other species and genera of diplodocid dinosaurs. "The differences we found between Brontosaurus and Apatosaurus were at least as numerous as the ones between other closely related genera, and much more than what you normally find between species," Benson explained. Co-author Octávio Mateus stated, "It's the classic example of how science works. Especially when hypotheses are based on fragmentary fossils, it is possible for new finds to overthrow years of research." It is also now believed that the dinosaur probably had a head similar to that of Diplodocus thanks to this study. Way to be, Brontosaurus! You do you! #MWTG325

Photographer steps inside abandoned Cleveland theater

http://goo.gl/EUQRVQ

There is something eerily beautiful about exploring and photographing abandoned building, and photographer Seph Lawless is set on sharing that beauty with the world. Lawless has been traveling around the U.S. photographing abandoned race tracks and other sites of urban decay for the past few years, and for his most recent project, he has  traveled to northeast Ohio to visit the deserted Variety Theater. The theater, which closed in 1986, was one of the first single screen movie theaters in the country, and later became an iconic venue for some of rock and roll's biggest names. The theater closed in 1986, and everything has been left untouched since then. "The most interesting thing I saw was just how original everything was ... everything was [virtually] the same as when it was built. The ornate ceilings and the architecture is just so beautiful even after all these years. There was art everywhere you looked. It was hauntingly beautiful to witness," Lawless writes. These pictures are definitely worth checking out! #MWTG325
