Disney Channel’s “Big Hero 6 – The Series” Official Trailer

Leave a comment

In 2014, I first discussed the Big Hero 6 character and his upcoming film over on PiercingMetal.com (seen HERE)- It wasn’t a normal process for me because I don’t usually feature the Disney films unless they are a part of the Marvel Studios line of releases on that website. Now with a full blown Film and Television section of its own, I am continuing to showcase the stuff that might be for a slightly younger audience. This animated series continues the adventures of Baymax and company in a new Disney Channel show called “Big Hero 6 – The Series”. Let’s take a look.

STX Entertainment’s “The Happytime Murders” Official Restricted Trailer (8/2018)

The film “The Happytime Murders” is a dark comedy that might call to mind some of the madness that we got from “Team America” but while the latter film was all puppets, this one features a human casting along with puppets and it stars Melissa McCarthy. Check out the uncensored trailer below and be sure to send the kids up to do their homework if you are playing this without headphones. It’s really NOT for their ears. Trust me on that.

The Plot: In a world where puppets are reviled and considered inferior to humans, puppet private investigator, Phil Phillips, reunites with his ex-partner Detective Connie Edwards to find a serial killer who murdered Phil’s brother and is now targeting the cast members of the 1980s television series The Happytime Gang.
