"OK, you guys. I'm sure I don't have to explain our situation in too much detail. We're here to write 'Back to the Ocean, Part VIII,' and we're faced with an audience that has franchise fatigue. 'Back to the Ocean 7: Lampreys on the Loose' was a box-office bomb that's expected to only just barely recoup its modest budget after the international and home-video releases. Now, the studio was screaming for a reboot, but I convinced them to give us one more chance, to let us make one more film in this series and give it the send-off it deserves before anyone takes it out of our hands for a remake or a reboot or a reimagining." "We have a pretty small budget, but I think we can use that to our ...
"The Hangover Part II" roared into theaters a couple of weeks ago, and despite come criticism that it was a formulaic retread of the first film, America went out in huge numbers to see it. That's because sometimes it pays to stick with what works. What the sequel might lack in originality, it makes up for in delivering huge laughs. That's what the audience wanted, and that's what they got. This is all by way of saying that I know this video is basically the exact same thing as "Baby Seal Released Back to the Ocean," which we posted exactly a month ago today. But so what? The narrative might be familiar, but that doesn't make it any less heartwarming. It doesn't make it any less adorable ...
Peter Byrne, Press Association Everyone knows that in the modern age, the British royal family is essentially a powerless decoration, but that doesn't mean there's an end to the list of things they get that you and I can never have. Case in a point: a baby endangered penguin. We can say with almost 100-percent certainty that nobody reading this ever received that for a wedding gift. Yet a baby Humbolt penguin named Acorn is exactly what the Chester Zoo in Cheshire, England gave to the new Duke and Duchess of Cambridge (aka Prince William and Kate Middleton). Of course, Acorn will not actually live with Willy and Kate, but instead will continue its residence at the Chester Zoo. That takes ...
Sure, "March of the Penguins" was a great penguin movie -- it was educational and touching and beautiful. But, come on, you have to admit that "Happy Feet" was pretty much the greatest penguin movie of all time. They sang! And danced! It's no wonder these penguins wanted to get together to reinact one of the scenes. It's like our friends at Daily Squee say: A human flash mob is cool, but penguins are a million times better.

In the South Atlantic's Falkland Islands, a couple of penguins were faced with a challenge: how to walk on water. Well, not water, per se, but a puddle. Penguins must like to keep clean, considering their reluctance to slosh through a rivulet between patches of grass. Well, now we know who's getting wellies for their birthdays!

Claire Epting You might think that as an animal ambassador for SeaWorld, Busch Gardens and Discovery Cove -- not to mention having traveled to the jungles of Africa, Borneo, Southeast Asia and Australia -- Julie Scardina would have seen it all. But as it turns out, there was something else out there: Antarctica. AOL's Good News Now (GNN) reports that on her first visit to the icy continent, Scardina and close to 100 other passengers, including an AOL journalist, witnessed hundreds of emperor penguins and their chicks in their native habitat. A sight that none of them will soon forget. The interview with Scardina took place as "a thousand Emperors, chicks and adults, were gathered nearby." ...
