The Belchers are in trouble in Bob’s Burgers Movie trailer

For over a decade, Bob’s Burgers has been a key show on Fox’s Sunday night animation block. And now that the series is nearing the end of its 12th season, it’s finally heading to the big screen. This May, The Bob’s Burgers Movie is bringing the Belcher family’s adventures to a new level, not entirely unlike The Simpsons Movie did in 2007. That’s why it’s fitting that the movie is also pushing the Belcher family to the brink. And if they don’t come out on top, then the Belchers won’t have anywhere to go home to.

In the new trailer, Bob is hit with a big bill shortly before a massive sinkhole opens up right in front of the family business, Bob’s Burgers. With the restaurant’s long-term survival in doubt, Bob’s wife, Linda, makes some questionable choices to help keep it alive. We’re assuming that’s the story behind her unfortunate burger suit bikini. Meanwhile, the Belcher children, Tina, Gene, and Louise, believe that something in the sinkhole may prove to be the salvation of their family’s dreams. Assuming they don’t get themselves killed, of course.

Why the Will Ferrell comedy Elf is still the best Christmas movie ever
Will Ferrell sits at a desk in Elf.

There's a scene in Elf where Will Ferrell's Buddy walks into a New York City coffee shop after seeing a sign in the window that reads" World's best cup of coffee." He then praises the entire staff for creating what he thinks is the best version of the popular drink. Buddy gleefully says, "You did it! Congratulations. World's best cup of coffee. Great job everybody," as the staff looks at him with blank stares. Pretend that the sign reads, "World's best Christmas movie," and I'm playing the role of Buddy in 2003, congratulating the cast and crew of Elf for creating a Christmas classic. I would have received the same confused looks from everyone in the room. Yet, time has been good to Elf, which has aged like a fine wine.

After 20 years, Elf has entered the pantheon of great Christmas movies and owns the championship belt for best of the 21st century. Released in theaters on November 7, 2003, Elf depicts the story of Buddy, a human raised by Santa's elves after being accidentally transported to the North Pole. As an adult, Buddy is an outcast due to his large stature and inability to make toys. After learning he's a human, Buddy leaves the North Pole to find his biological father, Walter Hobbs (James Caan), in New York City. Walter is a selfish businessman whose decision to prioritize work over his family puts him on the "Naughty List." Devastated, but not deterred, Buddy believes that by spending time with Walter, his Christmas spirit will rub off on his father and reshape his attitude.

How do they do it? The Simpsons have become famous for predicting a variety of world events, such as Trump's U.S. presidency, FIFA's bribery scandal, and Disney's acquisition of 20th Century Fox.
Either the showrunners have access to a crystal ball, or all of their writers who went to Harvard studied under Professor X. Nevertheless, there seem to be many more instances of this animated series correctly guessing future events. Let's break them down, shall we?

A new era begins in first Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes trailer
Noa and his bird friend in Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes.

In 2011, Rise of the Planet of the Apes started a new chapter in the franchise by rebooting the film series and focusing on the story of the legendary ape leader Caesar. In 2017, War for the Planet of the Apes brought Caesar's story to a conclusion, but the reboot timeline lives on in next summer's Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes. Generations have passed since the time of Caesar, and while the new movies haven't caught up with the time frame of the original movies yet, the first teaser trailer for Kingdom reveals that humanity is looking more and more like the savages they were in the first Planet of the Apes.
