Aqua Teen did get cancelled in 2015, though. It's one of my seven, even though I hadn't been watching regularly at that point.

Though there was a series of web shorts earlier this year, Aqua Donk Side Pieces. And there was the movie released this November.

That might be the final Aqua Teen content. Maybe.

We might be getting some news related to the movie soon because some marketing for Metalocalypse randomly kicked off this week.

A few days ago, Adult Swim started accepting entries for a Thunderhorse cover fan tribute video. Including a video explaining the rules from none other than Facebones.

Dethklok has also started appearing in a few festival lineups. So far are Blue Ridge Rock Festival, Aftershock, and Louder Than Life. These festivals take place in September and October, so assuming they are to play new material at these shows, we can speculate the movie might come out a bit before then. Maybe a tour too, only time will tell.

An official Tiktok account has also popped up, so far nothing on it besides lineups for the festivals they were announced for.

Thought it would be noteworthy to share given that this could be warming us up for more interesting announcements to come.

New Metalocalypse Movie, Soundtrack, Album & Tour With BABYMETAL

Metalocalypse: The Army of the Doomstar is still on track be released this year, and we're getting a soundtrack and a Dethalbum IV!

But of course the major announcement this morning is a co headlining tour with BABYMETAL called Babyklok.

"It's very surreal having so much new Metalocalypse & Dethklok this year with the trifecta of the tour, movie and album," said Metalocalypse mastermind Brendon Small. "I'm so excited to get on the road with the powerful Babymetal, and to celebrate all the hard work that team Metalocalypse and Dethklok put in over the last two years and beyond!"

What could Brendon mean by "and beyond"? I honestly was under the impression that the franchise would end with the film. But of course I wouldn't mind if that were the case!

He's saying that while the actual projects were greenlit and announced two years ago, the ideas and thoughts had been kicking around prior to then. He said "last two years and beyond", so he's going backwards, not forwards.

Apparently the show is one of several animated shows being taken off of the HBO Max (soon to be just "Max") streaming platform.

Makes no sense, we've got a movie for this show, so then they take it off before it premieres.

Adult Swim has the entire series for free on their website/app. Previously required a cable login, but they removed that wall due to the Max removal.

I do imagine it's a temporary removal given that the film is coming; things on streaming leave and return all the time. Maybe it's all part of the marketing to put the show in more headlines, but it's just as likely to me, if not more, that it's Warner being morons.

Fans have recently discovered that searching "Army of the Doomstar" in Google yields a poster from, I guess, Google's film database?

Fans are unsure whether or not the poster is legitimate, but I will say reverse searching it comes up with nothing. If it were fanmade, surely it would pull up someone's Deviantart or Twitter where someone originally posted it. It's pretty legitimate looking to me. Even if it does end up being fake, the poster is still badass.

I really want to believe that's legit because it ams brutal, but The Smash Bros. Grinch Leak has really make me skeptical of all media leaks. People can and will go to absurd lengths to fake something for attention.

Since we’re only a month away from having physical copies prepared, it doesn’t seem likely that the “MAX” switchover affected the movie’s actual production, right? Been seeing some concern about that.

Not only that but a complete collection box set is coming out too on August 15th. I have no confirmation on this but I've also heard it will include Doomstar Requiem, thankfully, which despite being probably the post plot important episode of the series, only released to home video in Australia prior.

So today I was looking up Army of the Doomstar on Blu-ray again searching for crumbs and I found something interesting.

The website for Archambault, a big name music and media retail chain in Quebec (whose website is the largest French-language retailer website in North America, by the way) claims a release date of August 22nd.

There’s an Adult Swim event tomorrow; seems like as good a place as any for a trailer and/or release date.

New single from Dethalbum IV out too!

How are we feeling about the trailer? Interesting to hear Knubbler and see a brief appearance of Rockzo. Also the Magnus appearance??? I assumed it was a flashback, but some people are speculating he could still be alive though I personally don't think so.

I also saw it pointed out that Murderface is wearing long sleeves to cover the prick in his arm...

Salacia looks a lot more haggard now for whatever reason.

Adult Swim has been uploading clips from the movie these last few days onto youtube:

Dethklok Hate Church

Salacia's Evil Orders

Nathan Explosion Breaks Up With His Fans

Dethklok Cheers Up Nathan

IGN Exclusive Clip

The clips are vague enough that they don't give away much but are still intriguing, which I like.
