angry birds

Oh, boy. Here we go. The first trailer for The Angry Birds Movie is here this is the culmination of something. It’s big moment for something. The mere existence of this movie means something. We don’t know what those somethings are, though. All one can do at this moment is watch this preview and ponder, uh, something.

Angry Birds is without question one of the hottest downloads on the internet right now with more than 200 million. John Burk, a ninth grade physics teacher in Atlanta decided to use the phenomenon to his advantage in the classroom for physics lessons and in particular projectile motion.

Angry Birds.  It's the new solitaire.  Only instead of stacking cards you use a slingshot to toss birds of different size, color, shape and ability at fortresses of stone, ice, and wood to kill green pigs that have stolen your eggs.  See, pretty much the same thing.
