In early 2019, all remaining Angry Birds games released before October 2014 (with the exception of Friends) were discontinued and removed from app stores, though Bad Piggies was added back in early 2020. The company released ports of the game to other touchscreen smartphone operating systems, including Android. At the time, the 2009 swine flu epidemic was in the news, so the staff decided to use pigs as the enemies of the Angry Birds. The first game in the series was initially released on 11 December 2009 for iOS. The first main-series video game sequel, Angry Birds 2, was released on 30 July 2015. The original Angry Birds has been called "One of the most mainstream games out right now", "One of the great runaway hits of 2010", and "The largest mobile app success the world has seen so far". īy July 2015, the series' games had been downloaded more than 3 billion times collectively, making it the most downloaded freemium game series of all time. By January 2014, there had been over 2 billion downloads across all platforms, including both regular and special editions. Its popularity led to many spin-offs versions of Angry Birds created for PCs and video game consoles, a market for merchandise featuring its characters, Angry Birds Toons, a televised animated series, and two films The Angry Birds Movie and its sequel The Angry Birds Movie 2. Inspired by the game Crush the Castle, the game has been praised for its successful combination of fun gameplay, comical style, and low price. The game series focuses on the eponymous flock of colorful angry birds who try to save their eggs from green-colored pigs. † Game has been discontinued and is no longer available.Īngry Birds is a Finnish action, puzzle, and strategy based media franchise created by Rovio Entertainment. Curry is an unrestricted free agent this offseason coming off another stellar season from three-point range. That negates players like Jalen Green and Kevin Porter Jr.'s ability to get to the basket and also made life a lot harder on Alperen Sengun, who mainly was operating in the paint. Teams throughout the years have sagged into the paint and dared the Rockets to make open shots from beyond the arc. When you are one of the worst three-point shooting teams in the league, you make game planning against you reasonably easy. The Rockets have finished 28th, 20th, and last in three-point shooting percentage in the previous three seasons. It got so bad last season that the Rockets almost abandoned shooting beyond the arc, as some games saw them only shooting 20 three-pointers for an entire game, which is unheard of in today's NBA. The Rockets have been the worst or close to the worst shooting team in the entire NBA for the last three seasons. The best course of action next season is to focus on particular areas they have struggled in the last few seasons. With that said, why tie up large amounts of cap space over three or four years to bring in Harden or VanVleet when that does not put you amongst the best teams in the NBA? The number one area the Rockets should focus on in free agency Photo by Sarah Stier/Getty Images The Rockets have been linked to Harden and VanVleet, but I think the Rockets should be focused on the second and third-tier free agents.Įven the most die-hard Rockets fan can admit the Rockets will not be contenders next season, but if everything breaks right, they could compete for a playing spot. The Rockets also have $60-plus million in cap space and will be looking to bring in veteran leadership to help guide their young talent in the 2023-24 season.īig names like James Harden, Fred VanVleet and Kris Middleton are at the top of free agency. Those two reasons are no longer a problem, as everyone from Tillman Fertitta to Jalen Green has made it obvious this season is about winning and not rebuilding. First, they didn't have the cap space to make any significant moves, and even if they did have the cap space, they were content going with their young roster as they continued rebuilding. For the first time in a while, the Rockets will be looking to add significant pieces via free agency.įor two reasons, the Rockets were content not making any significant moves during free agency the past two years. As I am sure you have heard repeatedly, this offseason will be unlike any the Houston Rockets have had recently. Either way, this The Devil Wears Prada-esque feature-length is more akin to a prequel than a remake (especially if you consider the 1996’s 101 Dalmation to be one of the first Disney live-action spins and that Emma Stone’s character is a past version of Glenn Close’s) and more closely resembles Maleficent in its focus on making a villain the protagonist. Actually, in my opinion, my little rant above was totally unnecessary for this post because simply put, Cruella falls considerably far away from the wardrobe of remakes, both in content and tone, so I may have just borrowed your time a tiny bit more than I should have. Still, if you have either liked or disliked the movies, you are very much entitled to do so.Ĭontroversy (and a touch of audience alienation) aside, the most recent episode of this “love it or hate it” franchise, rather a quasi-installment to the list of Disney live-action remakes, is Cruella. If someone does not like how Disney treats their live-action remakes and finds a community of people who agree, they can and should have their opinions, and Disney can learn from some critiques, but to believe that their views are the truth of the matter and that everyone else stands with them is misguided. That is a factor, amongst many others, people should consider when reviewing a movie’s performance above only believing in the words of the vocal majority. This more optimistic perspective to the live-action remakes where, in the majority of times, people keep on coming back for more, not unlike the MCU movies with the amount of money both franchises make with their hits and misses, partially proves that not everybody who watches a movie and enjoys it goes on social media to defend it, so the unilateral view presented about them on social media is not the only reality of the situation (even film reviewers have disparate opinions). As two examples, Beauty and the Beast made $1.26 billion globally, while The Lion King made $1.56 billion worldwide. (I appreciate a lot of aspects of 2019’s Aladdin, including the Bollywood-inspired dance sequences and Jasmine’s new song and her portrayal as a princess who cares about politics, Agrabah, and its citizens, earning the position of Sultana, and 2019’s Lion King is a visual and technological marvel regardless of the “emotionless” character facial expressions.) Moreover, even if such opinions thrive in places like Metacritic, Twitter, and sometimes YouTube, box office numbers provide a whole new worldview to the vocally unbeloved motion pictures. This criticism is not particularly part of my experience. Either from their uncreative approach at almost precisely copying the source material while adding nothing more than a little sprinkle of overcooked CGI and a pinch of Uncanny Valley to many more abstract or object-based characters like the Genie from Aladdin and Lumiere and Cogsworth from Beauty and the Beast, or from the movie’s blind faith towards recreating the magic of the animation instead of what makes the original films great, these motion pictures have received a lot of hate regardless. Disney live-action remakes of animation films have come under the scrutiny of a vocal number of fans of the originals. They are actually supposed to be pencil cans, but they worked perfectly for this! These are what we ordered: Mini Curbside Trash and Recycle Can Set. UPDATE: I've had some people ask about the mini garbage cans my kids are playing with in these pictures. It loops forever because Dash is forever dumping things into his garbage truck like this.

So, here are your pictures of the cutest fly you ever saw, and a very functional garbage truck.Īnd here are is the Snap Happy Mom family costumes for 2013: Waste Management, at your service!

Well this truck doesn't actually have any wheels, and it only has one fly, but you get the point. When I was little, this was my favorite joke:Ī garbage truck!

You might also consider talking with someone who has experience in the industry to give you suggestions. If you experience a mental block, try changing your environment-go outside, try a different time of day, or go to a setting that has similarities to the business you are interested in creating. Or set aside a short time each day that you can spend on this task so you train your mind to think about the vision you are setting for yourself. You may want to start with an outline and fill in the details later. This is normal, especially in the early stages of the process. In spite of your best efforts, you may have trouble putting your entrepreneurial vision on paper. Both concepts of a future vision and the mission of the venture should be formalized into statements. We might solve a problem, but if the value proposition isn’t relevant or seen as “real” by the customer, the venture will probably not be successful. Not only do you need to solve the problem, but you also must provide value. This relates back to the perspective of problem solving. The value proposition is a summary statement that conveys the benefits your product, service, or unique business process/model provides to customers. In describing your mission, carefully think about the value proposition that you provide. The mission statement is a formal declaration about what the venture will do, what value it will provide to the end customer, and how it will accomplish this action. In later chapters, we discuss how this change requires open-mindedness and a willingness to adapt. Be aware, though, that oftentimes, the identified vision at the start of the venture changes into something different. A vision statement is the picture you have for what the venture will become in the future: what it will grow into. Unfortunately, many potential entrepreneurs have dreams and ideas but never develop a concrete vision. Vision speaks to what the entrepreneur wants the business to look like in the future-perhaps five or ten years out. An entrepreneur’s vision is the start of a roadmap that will determine where he or she wants to go with their entrepreneurial efforts. This occurs even when the person has no idea how (or if) what they desire to accomplish or create will become a reality. What do you see in your future? How do you want to contribute to the world? Entrepreneurial VisionĮvery successful entrepreneur that you encounter or read about likely started with an image or idea related to something he or she felt passionate about creating. Although there is no secret to success, you do need to have some idea about what you envision for your entrepreneurial future. Some know exactly what they want to create, whereas others figure it out as they go along. Many would-be entrepreneurs aspire to launch the next great business or organization that will change the world. Establishing your vision is the first of several steps toward making your venture a reality. Vision is an important part of everyone’s future, and this is especially true for entrepreneurs. This section is designed to help you develop your entrepreneurial vision. When you think of yourself as a successful entrepreneur, what types of images or feelings do you experience? Do you find yourself daydreaming about creating the next great solution to society’s problems, or do you see yourself providing a solution for the next health or environmental crisis? Maybe you can imagine yourself creating something that equally balances art, function, and ingenuity. By the end of this section, you will be able to: There are three neutral, ten positive and five negative powerups in the game. If this occurs, all unbreakable blocks will eventually replaced with the breakable ones after a minute or so of the ball being stuck in a bouncing pattern. In certain levels, the layout of unbreakable blocks may allow the ball to become stuck in an infinite loop without touching the paddle. If only a single block remains on a level and it continues to be untouched by the bouncing ball for a minute or so, an electricity sound begins to build and eventually the block is blasted away by a lightning. Various power-ups appear when hitting random blocks, floating downwards towards the bottom and can be picked up by touching it with the paddle. Similarly as Arkanoid and MegaBall, there is an inclusion of power-ups other than extra balls. Clearing all the blocks results in completing the level and going to the next. The game is basically a Breakout clone: the player controls a paddle at the bottom and deflects a single ball, hitting different colored blocks on the top of the screen without having the ball fall below the screen. DX-Ball has been succeeded by three direct follow-ups: DX-Ball 2 (1998), Rival Ball (2001) and Super DX-Ball (2004). A level editor was also made available as well. The game, originally based on an earlier series of Amiga games known as MegaBall, is patterned after classic ball-and-paddle arcade games such as Breakout and Arkanoid.
