Prepare yourself: The latest viral music hit has arrived. It’s called "The Fox,” a hilarious and maddeningly infectious song by Ylvis, a pair of Norwegian variety show brothers. The video, which involves people dressed up as animals dancing around in the woods while Bård and Vegard Ylvisåker croon ”dog goes woof/ cat goes meow/ bird goes tweet/ mouse goes squeak,” has acquired nearly 3 million hits on YouTube in three days. If you’ve already seen "The Fox,” it’s probably left you with plenty of questions of your own. Like, "Why am I still hopelessly stuck on the insanely catchy clutches of a song about animal noises?” and "Should I be reevaluating my own understanding of animal noises?

Robocop trailer suggests José Padilha's remake won't suit everyone

Robocop — Sat, 07 Sep 2013 11:12:44 GMT

The appearance of the first trailer for José Padilha's Robocop heralds yet another remake of a bravura Paul Verhoeven sci-fi film from the 80s. The film-going public can't really win in this situation. If the new version turns out to be a pale imitation of the original's bombastic, gorgeously grim satire on corporate America, we've all paid to see a duff movie. If Padilha pulls off a miracle and delivers the sleek and visceral reworking hinted at here, you just know they're going to bring back Showgirls next.
