sing

Look, you can’t blame a studio for taking notice when something is working and wanting to replicate their own success. Sequels wouldn’t get greenlit unless someone, somewhere, wanted them. It makes perfect fiscal sense for upstart animation studio Illumination to follow up on their blockbusters Minions, The Secret Life of Pets, and Sing. But, god, did they have to announce them all at once like that?

The first trailer for Sing has arrived, and it’s filled with stuff you’ll recognize (and probably like): Cute animated animals, the smooth voice of Matthew McConaughey, hit pop songs, music competitions and…that laughably terrible “Butterfly” song that people sometimes put on at parties as an endurance test for their friends (note: these are not good people).

For any dog owner you always hope you have a phone or camera ready when your dog does something adorably funny, for these owners they were ready, since this was not the first time their dog sang along to Adele.

Sometimes circumstances help you find a true diamond in the rough, and this is the situation here. The video is really long, but it definitely conveys an important message. Sometimes many of us are guilty of walking or driving by someone who is homeless and struggling , and don't think twice about who they used to be, or how they got in this situation.
