July 2

New American Dad Season 21

When is this new season going to come out on TBS, August or September? 172.13.193.84 (talk) 02:42, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Funniest scene in Despicable Me 2

After El Macho drank the mutagen, it turns him into a Grimace-like monster, but bigger, fatter, more hairer, and probably meaner, as well as his clothes and medallion getting ripped off during the transformation. 172.13.193.84 (talk) 02:48, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What's your question? ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 03:20, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"Funniest" is entirely subjective in this context. Cullen328 (talk) 03:25, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

From the description provided, the gag seems to be based on a trope that includes the Incredible Hulk and Mr. Hyde, if that is the point of the non-question. I haven't seen the movie, however. Xuxl (talk) 13:37, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've not seen any of them, but since even the TV ads seem un-funny, it's possible to some viewers that all the scenes in those movies would be equally funny. ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 15:56, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Old movie, can't remember the name

Hot springs pop up in a town, become a huge tourist attraction, but a doctor finds poison bacteria and there's plenty of drama over if he should blow the whistle or not. This also may have been a play with a recent/upcoming NYC production. Anyone remember what it's called? Thanks, Abeg92contribs 11:37, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I tried searching for movie poison hot springs, movie dangerous hot springs, and show dangerous hot springs, but the only film to come back was Dante's Peak, which is pretty clearly not your movie. Do you remember anything else about it? Matt Deres (talk) 15:26, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The play is An Enemy of the People by Henrik Ibsen. Omidinist (talk) 04:31, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

According to our article, "A new adaptation by Amy Herzog on Broadway at the Circle in the Square Theatre previewed on February 27, 2024, with an opening night March 18." --Lambiam 11:40, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks so much! I guess I was almost close on the time period... Abeg92contribs 14:09, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

About the Minions

I was wondering who or what these Minions actually are: aliens of an unknown origin, toy robots with minds of their own, or failed by-products of a cloning experiment gone horribly wrong? 172.13.193.84 (talk) 15:44, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Minions (film) says: "Minions are small, yellow pill-shaped creatures which have existed since the beginning of time, evolving from single-celled organisms into beings which exist only to serve history's most evil masters, but they accidentally end up killing all their masters: rolling a Tyrannosaurus into a volcano, letting a caveman get mauled by a bear, crushing a Pharaoh and his subjects with a pyramid, and exposing Count Dracula to sunlight. They are driven into isolation after firing a cannon at Napoleon while in Russia and start a new life inside a cave, but after many years, the Minions become sad and unmotivated without a master to serve..." Alansplodge (talk) 15:51, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That would explain everything and it makes perfect sense, now. 172.13.193.84 (talk) 16:15, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Police Academy cartoon complete series DVD

Are there any future plans to bring the complete Police Academy cartoon series on DVD, but this time all 65 episodes instead of 30? 172.13.193.84 (talk) 18:27, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We can't answer requests for predictions. Only the producers would know that, so I suggest you contact them. Shantavira|^{feed me} 09:17, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not really. The producers could have announced such plans. That would make it a legitimate question for the ref desk. --Viennese Waltz 22:02, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
