Ever wonder why the Marvel movies lack LGBTQ presence? Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige says that’s about to change.
When asked by entertainment site The Playlist when we’ll finally see LGBTQ characters in Marvel movies, Feige said they’re coming. In fact, we’ve already met at least one; Feige says the characters are “both ones you’ve seen and ones you haven’t seen.”
SHARKS ARE EVIL! Unrelenting powerfully evil!
This video which X105KC, turned us onto is from the New York Post and it reminds you that Sharks get their own week on Discovery Channel out of fear and respect, not because they are cute.
This fishing group wrangled a Bull Shark but what happened next may shock you. It is not for the faint of heart and it is bloody.
The Spider-Man sequel has a name. Actor Tom Holland dropped the name (Spider-Man: Far From Home) in this Instagram post:
I was doing a lot of road tripping this week.
During my travels, I heard a great discussion with Dan Reynolds of Imagine Dragons.
I learned in his younger days, Reynolds witnessed some of his fellow Mormons struggling with their sexuality — and had some regrets about not being more of an ally then. Still involved with the church, he is advocating for acceptance of the LGBTQ community. He seemed to feel a bit irregular that he — as a heterosexual, white male — was the one making this push. But the show host brushed that notion off, saying that it is of vital importance for straight supporters to take up the fight for inclusion, too. As an straight ally of the LGBTQ community, I agree.
Tomorrow (6/25), a documentary capturing a bit of that push is debuting on HBO — called Believer. Here is the trailer. — [eric]

Weezer’s cover of “Africa.” It’s amazing that one girl’s Tweet has led to….this.
Now you can own this snazzy looking piece of commemorative Weezer merch — and at the same time, you will be charitable. All proceed of this tee are being donated to Roots Ethiopia, “a non-profit organization that improves schools, enables livelihoods educates children and serves special needs students in the SNNPR Ethiopia.”
Now, I present a non-exhaustive and completely subjective list of Top 10 “Alt” Themed Tees. Feel free to share your own favs on Facebook/Twitter. — [eric]

A place where a kid could be a kid is no longer. As many of us know, Toys ‘R Us is no more. The store which was a massive part of our childhood has been forced out of business after years in decline. Watch this in-depth documentary from Bright Sun Films looking into the company’s rise and fall. It highlights how the stores became obsolete with bad business moves and changing times.
BSF takes on a touching take showing the stores that have closed and what they look like now.
Also what about this emotional cover of that Toys ‘R Us jingle? Yeah, that’s hair-raising on your arms.
The Foo Fighters helped close out the week long London residency of ‘the Late Late Show with James Corden’ last night with ‘Best Of You’. The performance which had a wild light show element, saw the band crush it in the Central Hall Westminster.
This same episode saw Corden pull out his signature segment ‘Carpool Karaoke’ with the iconic Paul McCartney.
Dave Grohl aslo took the chat couch with Corden to share how he was influenced by the Beatles. Grohl tells this ridiculous story of being at a party way too late when he was not ready to perform a private show, of course he was prompted to play a song with McCartney, only to be saved by pop music princess who performed one a Foo Fighter tune.
Panic! At The Disco dropped their new album ‘Pray For the Wicked’ today and this week we got a new muppet video showing off Brendon Urie and friends rise and fictional fall from grace on the new track “Hey Ma! Look I Made it’.
Listen to the entire new album ‘Pray for the Wicked’ here.
That’s not all the new PATD we got this week. The band also dropped the audio video for ‘King of the Clouds’.

Gorillaz dropped a new trippy banging track called ‘Hollywood’ featuring Jamie Principle and Snoop Dogg from their upcoming new album ‘The Now Now’ which comes out June 29th. Based on lyrics, the song positions the idea of pursuing lofty showbiz dreams out west as if it was a woman the vocalists are deeply attracted to, but also know she may not be the best for them.
Here is another new track featuring Jack Black in the music video, it’s called ‘Humility’. Below we also have all the other musical delights shared from Darron Albarn and company from the forthcoming album.
Happy 25th birthday to Bill Dess! Two Feet made his network television debut on Colbert last night. Watch ‘I Feel Like I’m Drowning’ complete with violin trio.
