All images: Sony

An entirely new group of alphabet agents are ready to protect our planet in Men In Black International, a prequel to the MIB trilogy. The trailer looks pretty hilarious, and the film has quite a stellar cast.

Here's the official synopsis from Sony:

The Men in Black have always protected the Earth from the scum of the universe. In this new adventure, they tackle their biggest, most global threat to date: a mole in the Men in Black organization.

Men In Black International arrives in theaters next summer.

Quote of the Week

Marvel

Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than divides us. But in times of crisis, the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.

- King T'Challa, Black Panther 

Trip a Little Light Fantastic - Mary Poppins Returns

Disney

I love the way the new songs written for Mary Poppins Returns seem like they could have been a part of the original film. This song, "Trip a Little Light Fantastic", is practically perfect in every way.

I love Rolie Polie Olie videos. It was one of my favorite cartoons on the Disney Channel. I just adore the happy Polie family and their retro look and ways. This Christmas episode features three short stories. So cute!

Quote of the Week

MGM

"Tonight I want to tell you the story of an empty stocking.

Once upon a midnight clear, there was a child's cry, a blazing star hung over a stable, and wise men came with birthday gifts. We haven't forgotten that night down the centuries.We celebrate it with stars on Christmas trees, with the sound of bells, and with gifts.

But especially with gifts. You give me a book, I give you a tie. Aunt Martha has always wanted an orange squeezer and Uncle Henry can do with a new pipe. For we forget nobody, adult or child. All the stockings are filled, all that is, except one. And we have even forgotten to hang it up. The stocking for the child born in a manger. Its his birthday we're celebrating. Don't let us ever forget that.

Let us ask ourselves what He would wish for most. And then, let each put in his share: loving kindness, warm hearts, and a stretched out hand of tolerance. All the shining gifts that make peace on earth."

Clever Christmas Commercials

I've said it before and I'll say it again: I love a good Christmas commercial! Here are a few of my newfound favorites from around the world.

Globe Telecom, a Filipino company, shared this beautiful story of a lost dog and a found friendship.

This Christmas advert, from UK company John Lewis & Partners, features some hilarious, and unexpected, animal antics.

And finally, KLM Royal Dutch Airline came up with this wonderful idea to bring people together at Christmas.

I've never been fortunate enough to watch EPCOT's Candlelight Processional in person, but its definitely on my bucket list. This Christmas tradition was started 60 years ago by Walt Disney himself and is a must see every year. This year, for the first time, Disney shared a live-stream of the show.
