Hey TGs!

Do we have any Spider-Man fans in the house? Coz this vid's for you! Check out Spider-Man and Iron man behind the scenes talking Spidey's cool suit and tech. Following his time with the Avengers, Spider-Man: Homecoming sees Peter Parker (Spider-Man) return home, not straying far from the guidance of mentor Tony Stark (Iron Man). Having Iron Man as a mentor has its advantages – he's got the most hi-tech gear on the planet and lucky for Spidey – Stark's built him a very special suit. The clip features behind the scenes interviews with Robert Downey JR. and Tom Holland revealing a few of the suit's neat gadgets. It's sooo worth a look.


Cool, huh? So excited for this and we haven't much longer to wait. Spider-Man: Homecoming hits cinemas July 6. If the ultra rad suit isn't enough of a draw card for you, then I'm sure Zendaya's appearance in the movie might be. So many reasons to see this movie!

If Tony Stark made you a cool super suits, what sort of gadgets would yours include? I mean, Spider-Man's suit would be pretty neat, but I would totes want one that could fly like Iron Man's. Slinging webs is too much effort; why swing when you can fly? Amirite? Let me know in the comments below!

Happy Monday TGs!

I hope your weekend was absolutely glorious :)

We're back to the start of the week again but have no fear, your Entertainment blog is here and we've got some some gr8 news for you – a trailer is up for The Emoji Movie  and it looks sah hilar!

The city of Textopolis is home to every kind of emoji you can imagine. They live, work and play in this bustling city, waiting to be picked by the phone's user. Every emoji has its own expression, except for poor old Gene, he was born without a filter and unlike his peers, has a smorgasbord of expressions. In an attempt to fit in, Gene finds some unlikely friends in the hungry Hi-5 (James Corden) and rebellious Jailbreak.

The Emoji Movie hits cinemas September 14, 2017.



Sah many LOLs! What did you think of the trailer, TGs? What emoji do you use the most? Let me know in the comments below :)

Hey TGs!

Now, I know there are plenty of Star Wars fans among you – did you happen to catch the teaser trailer for Star Wars: The Last Jedi? OMTG! It looks ~amazing~ Rey's seen training with a lightsaber – hopefully this means she's going to be ready to kick some First Order butt! Check out the poster. So. Much. Coolness.



There's been a lot of talk about what the movie's title is referring to – could this be the end of the Jedi and the rise of a new kind of being? Could Rey be that being? Could she be the last Jedi, or is it Luke? Ooo too many questions, not enough answers! We will have to wait until December 14 to find out. In the meantime, check out the teaser trailer below. FYI – this is for older TGs, yo.



There are a lot of little hints and secrets hidden in the trailer so let me know any you've picked up on in the comments below!

See ya :)

Aaron

Yo TGs!

SLIME CUP fans rejoice. Back and better than ever, SLIME CUP returns for a second season, and we're ~so~ heppeh! Nothing lights up our lives like a good old fashion sliming. This year's Cup is set to have crazier challenges, bigger spills and more ways to get slimed.



Open to all kids aged 9 - 13 from across Australia and New Zealand. Partner up with a sibling or bestie and submit your audition videos online or pre-register to complete a series of challenges at on-ground level events. But hey, best to check with a parent/guardian before doing so, coz you know how good parents are with that kind of thing! Nickelodeon is also bringing live tryouts to Queensland (Sunday April 9 9am - 4pm at Sea World, Gold Coast) and NSW (Sunday April 23 9pm - 4pm at Westfields Mt Druitt).



Reporting from the front lines, Kristy Best along with a yet-to-be-announced U.S. Nickelodeon star will be taking care of the hosting duties. I wonder who this mystery star could be? Any guesses, TGs?

SLIME CUP premieres on Nickelodeon Friday June 30 at 5:30pm.

Catch ya later!

Hey TGs!

Happy Monday to you all. I hope you've been having a wonderful time, I'm sure you have :)

I tell you what, there's nothing like kicking off the day with a cool new movie trailer. This one in particular looks real promising and way cute.

Brought to you by the creators of Ice Age and RIO, Ferdinand is a big bull with an even bigger heart. Set in Spain (OMTG's the colours and costumes a ~sooo~ pretty. I can already tell this is going to be a delight to watch), this animated adventure proves that you can't judge a book by its cover, nor can you judge a bull by its, ah, horns... if that makes sense. It's a tale of a kind spirited bull who is mistaken for a dangerous beast and shipped far away from home. He'll need the help of a rag-tag group of misfits to make it back to his family.



Great, huh? Ferdinand is voiced by wrestler and Nickelodeon's Kids' Choice Awards 2017 host, John Cena. Another big name is the hilar Kate McKinnon, who played Jillian Holtzmann in last year's Ghosbusters reboot. Urrrrmm, yeaaaaah!

Ferdinand bull-dozes cinemas Boxing Day, 2017!

What do you think, TGs? I personally am excited to see more from this movie; it looks like a heartwarming story with plenty of giggles to boot!

All the best TGs :)

Aaron

What up TGs!

Paging all Diary of a Wimpy Kid fans. Can I get a show of hands who's mad keen for the latest movie adaption of this hilar book series? Just as I thought – too many to count ;)

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul is the second film adaption of this much loved series by author and illustrator Jeff Kinney. Greg Heffley returns in another adventure riddled with mishaps. Greg has convinced his fam that a road trip to make Meemaw's 90th birthday party is a great idea, but little do they know – he's got a plan to become famous! In true Diary of a Wimpy Kid style, life just isn't that simple... it's destined to be a long haul.



OMTG! This looks like it could be heaps of fun. Also, that piglet!! I. WANT. ONE.

What do you think, TGs? Could this be just as good as the first movie? Or even better? The movie hits cinemas June school holidays, so we'll have to wait 'til then to tell.

Catch ya later, TGs :)

Aaron

Hey-oh TGs!

I hope your week is coming along swimmingly! Tbh, We've been swimming here at TGHQ; it hasn't stopped raining :/
A little rain isn't going to dampen our spirits, especially since we've got a super cool announcement to share with you *rolls drum*

Believe the hype – musician, actor and entertainer Jacob Sartorius is a force to be reckoned with. He's charismatic, super posi and that voice... ~amazing~

His 2016 debut single 'Sweatshirt' achieved RIAA gold status and stacked up 15.1 million streams on Spotify – all in under a year, not bad for a 14-year-old who's career is only just beginning.



Fast forward to Jan 2017 and Jacob's continues to soar with the release of his debut EP, the smooth pop-laden gem The Last Text. Following the EP's success, Jacob set out on his first headline tour, stopping in Toronto, Dublin, Stockholm and more.

Now, it's our turn! The multi-talented teen will be bringing The Last Text World Tour Pt.II to our shores this year, and we couldn't be more excited.

The Last Text World Tour Pt.II  
Tuesday 4th July - Astor Theatre, Perth
Thursday 6th July - Palais Theatre, Melbourne
Friday 7th July - The Tivoli, Brisbane
Sunday 9th July - Big Top, Sydney
Tuesday 11th July - Bruce Mason Centre

Tickets are on sale now, so if you're a fan of Jacob, get in quick!

That's all from me, TGs! Have a great day :)

Hey TGs!

First of all, I have something to confess – I absolutely love the Minions. Yup, guilty as charged. They always manage to make me laugh, and they are ~so~ adorbs. You can imagine my excitement when I received the newest trailer for Despicable Me 3! If you're struggling to picture it, I'll help you out a little. I was beating my hands on my desk, chanting "Minions! *thump, thump, thump* Minions! *thump, thump, thump* Miniooooonnnnsss!" Legit. Well, not entirely... rest assured, I was much excite and I'm sure you are, too!

Cute little yellow peeps aside, the latest installment of the Despicable Me franchise sees Gru uncovering unknown family ties... I'll refrain from any further spoilers, so check it out for yourself!



What did you think? Will Gru go back to his old ways? The Minions seem pretty keen on it. LOL! Let me know in the comments below!

Despicable Me 3 hits cinemas June 15!

That's all from me for now, TGs. Have a great day :)
