Samuel L. Jackson has signed on to narrate a spoof of March of the Penguins, scheduled for release this summer. By all accounts, Farce of the Penguins will use stock footage of penguins with the narration. The storyline sounds similar to the original March of the Penguins, but with less emphasis on the enduring power of the pair bond in chick rearing and more emphasis on the mating. Just a guess that the family values people won't be all gung-ho for this one.
New trailers are up for the more family-friendly upcoming animated penguin flick, Happy Feet. I still like the first trailer better.
We've all seen the obligatory scene in every submarine movie where the captain takes the sub below the calculated crush depth and the sub comes out OK. Now a Fairy penguin, smallest of all the penguins, has exceeded the calculated penguin crush depth. Scientists calculated that the maximum dive depth a one-kilogram penguin should be capable of reaching is 66 meters. The female Fairy went to 67 meters as recorded by the sensors she was wearing.
