Star Wars Honest Trailer: May the Hilarity Be With You!

This may be a first:


Screen Junkies, the good amazing folks behind endlessly entertaining Honest Trailers, have created a new version for a film that has not even been released yet.


But it"s one you"ve likely heard of: Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Does that ring a bell?


Because the film hasn"t actually opened yet (DECEMBER 18, people!!!!), this edited preview doesn"t make fun of the plot or the story itself.


Instead, it sets its sights on the out-of-control anticipation surrounding the seventh episode in this iconic chapter.


"We could show you two hours of a monkey washing a cat and you"d still go see this movie…twice," the Honest Trailer says at one point.


"Who are you?" the narrator also asks Daisy Ridley"s character as the trailer opens, to which she replies:


"It depends who you ask, there"s a lot of fan theories floating around. But you can back-order a tiny version of my droid for $ 150." 


The footage also makes fun of some of the less-appreciated (that"s a generous description, huh?) prequels that Star Wars fans wish they could forget, pointed out that The Force Awakens will (hopefully!) usher in a new era.


"The prequels…they"re gnawing at you…just let them go," intons the narrator, before the logo appears with the following statement:


"It"s on you, Abrams."


But no pressure, man. No pressure at all.


Check out the Honest Trailer below and then view the actual Force Awakens trailer by following our link.


May the humor be with you.

Goliath The Baby Cow Thinks He"s a Dog

Oh my stars.  This calf thinks he"s a canine.


Goliath was once a sickly, day-old baby, abandoned by some cruel scorpion at the dairy farm.  According to Town & Country Magazine, a lovely woman by the name of Shaylee Hubbs found the calf, who wasn"t even strong enough to suck on a bottle.  


With the help of the family vet, and the care of their Great Dane, Leonidas (a male), Goliath has grown into a delightful young cow.


"He would lick the little cow on the face and try to nudge him to stand up," Hubbs told CountryLiving.com of Leonidas.


"He would lay down with the sick little cow for hours just to keep him company. Leo, of course, was so bewildered at what the cow was trying to do and thought it was a fun game to play. The Great Dane and Holstein bull became the best of friends.​"


The family named him Goliath because of the strength he gained.  


Even though Goliath calls a lovely playhouse in the backyard his bed, the curious cow would "fog up the windows" of the family home and stare jealously at the dogs, who got to lounge on the couches day after day.


So, he did what any cow in his position would do.  He saw an opportunity and seized it while Hubbs went down the hill to feed the barn animals.


"We panicked and looked all around the house and checked for any open gates," Hubbs recalled. "Everything seemed in order. Then we walked into the house and look who we found lounging ever so comfortably on our couch—Goliath!!! This was triumph and victory, a nice comfortable place on the couch!​"

Emilia Clarke for Dior Fine Jewelry: Not Ugly!

The Sexiest Woman Alive has a new job.


Fear not, Game of Thrones lovers: Emilia Clarke will be donning her wig and mothering her dragons against on Season 6 this spring.



In the meantime, however, she’ll also be promoting a new line of Dior Fine Jewelry.


The French fashion house announced on Wednesday that Clarke is its new (gorgeous!!!) spokeswoman, confirming the news along with the release of two sizzling pictures.


In her first luxury fashion campaign, the 29-year old looks almost nothing like Daenerys Targaryen, the possible future Queen of Westeros who Clarke has brought to life on the small screen.


Gone are Khaleesi’s grit and grime here; taking their place is a far more modern, natural look, with Clarke’s rich brown hair flowing freely, as opposed to her character’s icy platinum braids.


Said Dior in a statement, referencing Clarke and photographer Patrick Demarchelier:


“Demarchelier captures the young actress’ natural, timeless beauty – a true reflection of the Rose des Vents stunning line of long and short necklaces in yellow and rose gold, diamonds, white mother-of-pearl, and pink opal.”


The Mother of Dragons portrayer is the latest star to team up with the high-fashion brand, which has partners in the past with such beauties as Jennifer Lawrence, Natalie Portman and Marion Cotillard.
