The response to the Fyre Festival documentaries on both Hulu and Netflix have garnered an exceptional critical response.

People are enamored by the extremely ridiculous circumstances surrounding the entire event; from Billy McFarland landing on Norman's Cayto Andy King's extreme measures to get Evian water out of customs, we are all just baffled.


Back in 2017, The Lonely Island tweeted that they were going to make a film about a music festival that went horribly wrong:

An idea that people thought was fantastic:





But now it looks like it may actually be happening.

The trio (Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer, and Jorma Taccone) told The Daily Beast that a full-fledged spoof was in the works.

"I don't want to divulge all the details but we're figuring it out right now," said Taccone. "You've seen the docs, right? It's crazy. This is something that Akiva and Seth cooked up, and we're figuring it all out right now."



Other celebs have expressed interest in being cast in the film.



And some original cast:



But mostly people want to make sure Andy King is really in there.




Taccone himself is a huge fan of Andy King.

"I was like, I would hire that dude for anything … Hire that dude!" he said. "That guy is a champion."





There is no word yet on a potential release date for the movie.

However, if it is even half as ridiculous as either available documentary, it will be incredible.

Teacher Stunned After Student Argues That People Shouldn't Have To 'Think Anymore' Thanks To ChatGPT

There's no doubt that ChatGPT and similar tools are growing in relevance and application, and they're growing fast. The problem is that many people, especially younger individuals, seem to struggle with how much they should depend on the tools.

We already knew that ChatGPT could be a problem regarding critical thinking and creativity, so maybe we should have anticipated the mindsets that would develop, snubbing independent thinking when tools like ChatGPT are available.

Disney princesses are usually known for their whimsical singing and befriending creatures from all across the animal kingdom, but Princess Rapunzel at Tokyo DisneySea may have misunderstood the assignment.

Earlier this week, Rapunzel was caught on video at DisneySea in Tokyo, but she didn't go viral for her cheery demeanor or her singing voice, which passers-by can hear from the base of her elegant tower. Rather, it was a pair of intruders who put her in the spotlight.

Bald Men Are Up In Arms Over Viral Chart That Predicts Political Affiliation Based On A Man's Haircut

And a TikToker has followed that lead by developing a chart that predicts a man's political persuasion based on his hair alone—and bald men are NOT happy about it.

Republicans Slammed For Soulless One-Word Response To Democrats' Trans Day Of Visibility Tweet

According to research by the Williams Institute at UCLA School of Law, transgender people in the United States were over four times more likely than cisgender people to be victims of violent crime based on statistics from 2017-2018. A study by the non-profit Everytown for Gun Safety found the number of trans people murdered in the U.S. nearly doubled between 2017and 2021.

In the last 5–9 years, those figures have only increased as the Republican Party has made trans people the target of many of their political campaigns and legislative actions.

Pete Hegseth Slammed After Calling Off Investigation Into Army Helicopter Fly-By At Kid Rock's House

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was criticized for calling off the U.S. Army's investigation after MAGA musician Kid Rock posted a video of an Army Apache helicopter doing a fly-by at his Nashville home.

The video shows Kid Rock saluting as the aircraft hovers near his property, standing next to a replica Statue of Liberty by his pool. In the brief clip, a helicopter that appears to be an AH-64 Apache—an attack helicopter used by the U.S. Army and National Guard—flies at low altitude near his estate in Whites Creek.
