It"s a tough life, being bulletproof.
At least that"s what Luke Cage (Mike Colter) is making us think in the first teaser forMarvel"sLuke Cage, the third of the Marvel/Netflix collaboration series, set to debut on the streaming service in September. You can find the teaser autoplaying after the final episode of the second season ofMarvel"s Daredevil, which dropped on Netflix Friday (also by following this link).
The clip opens with Cage, who we first met inJessica Joneslast year, walking into a boxing gym and surprising some armed gentlemen. They pull their guns on him, to which he responds, "I guess you"ve never heard of me." They open fire, which is pointless because Cage"s superpower (in addition to moderatesuper strength) is having unbreakable skin.
And Cage drops the mic:"I"m about sick of always having to buy new clothes."
SPRINGFIELD -- All the signs of St. Patrick"s Day were visible at City Hall on Thursday including the Springfield colleen and her court, bagpiper David Kane, and Mayor Domenic J. Sarno, going by his once-a-year name of "O"Sarno."
They were of the crowd that attended the annual St. Patrick"s Day Irish flag-raising ceremony outside City Hall, presented by the Springfield St. Patrick"s Parade Committee and Sarno.
Abigail Laughlin, the 2016 Springfield colleen, said she and her court take great pride in their Irish heritage, and are excited to be taking part in Sunday"s St. Patrick"s parade in Holyoke.
"It"s honestly such an honor to be here, representing both the city of Springfield and my Irish Heritage," said Laughlin, 18, a student at East Longmeadow High School."It"s something I am just so proud of and it"s really a dream come true to be able to represent Springfield in this way."
It has been a very busy St. Patrick"s Day season "but it"s been so much fun, more fun than I ever could have imagined," Laughlin said.
Sarno praised the winners of the St. Patrick"s Day Parade Committee"s 2016 awards, all present for the flag raising who "give and give and give every day, never looking for any type of accolades."
Also present at Thursday"s event were family members of the late Gunnery Sgt. Thomas Sullivan. Sullivan was chosen by the committee as its honorary parade marshal,
Many local and state elected officials were present.
Sarno and Laughlin raised the flag outside the Municipal Group buildings.
Sarno also issued a proclamation that stated in part that "the Irish American community has always and shall continue to be a great contributor to the well-being and betterment of our city through persistence in establishing homes and businesses, as well as sharing culture and history."
Parade Committee President Kerri Sullivan introduced the various award winners and others in attendance.
Abstract Shamrock Swirl | Water Marble March 2016 #6 | Nail Art Tutorial
Missing her first St. Patricks celebrations in five years, the Duchess of Cambridge has handed out the shamrocks every year since 2011.
Prince William alone handed out St Patricks Day shamrocks to the Irish Guards earlier today, the first time a male royal has undertaken the traditional ceremony since 1901.
William was forced to step in after his wife Kate Middleton opted out of the St. Patricks Day celebrations and the 115-year old tradition in order to stay home with her children, George, aged two, and Charlotte, aged ten months.
Missing her first St. Patricks celebrations in five years, the Duchess of Cambridge has handed out the shamrocks every year since 2011 when she took over from Princess Margaret. The tradition has been carried out by a female royal every year since 1901 when the tradition was started by Queen Alexandra, just a year after the Irish Guards were formed.
This year, however, the Duchess stayed at her home at the Anmer Hall estate in Norfolk in order to focus on the family before an upcoming week-long trip to India and Bhutan with Prince William.
The Duke of Cambridge, 33, continued with the appearance, attending the Cavalry Barracks in Hounslow and presenting shamrock to more than 600 soldiers.
Allowing shamrock to be pinned to his hat, the Duke led a private ceremony for the family of Major Harry Shapland, a soldier killed in operations in northern Iraq in 1994, and presented Major Shaplands mother with the Elizabeth Cross and Memorial Scroll.
Following the ceremony, Prince William, dressed in an Irish Guards frock coat and wearing a ceremonial sword, handed out baskets of shamrock on the central parade ground, also presenting a sprig of the plant to the regiment"s mascot, the four-year-old Irish wolfhound Domhnall.
According to a spokesperson from Kensington Palace: "The Duchess has very much enjoyed the occasions when she has been able to attend, but the Duke is the Colonel of the Regiment and is looking forward to presenting the Irish Guards with their Shamrock.
"The Duchess looks forward to marking St. Patrick"s Day with the Irish Guards many times in the future."
Kensington Palace have also pointed out that although the Duchess has followed tradition in handing out the shamrock for the past five years, it is officially the Duke of Cambridge, as Colonel of the Regiment, who has the formal role.
The Duchess absence is also not the first time that only a male member of the Royal family has been present either, they noted.
There has been some anger at the Duchess of Cambridges decision with the Daily Mail reporting that the Irish Guards were deflated by her absence.
Her decision comes as the young royals are defending themselves from accusations that they are workshy and are not undertaking the same workload as their much older relatives.
Although aged 94, the Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Philip, clocked up 250 official duties at home and abroad last year while William, Kate and Prince Harry combined only conducted 198.
The Duke of Cambridge, however, has stated that being labeled workshy was all part of the job. Just in the past week, Prince William took on 11 public engagement in four days, although the Palace insist it was a coincidence and not a direct result of complaints about their workload.
Speaking after the St. Patricks Day event, Company Sergeant Major Carl Laverty said the guards were conscious that she [Kate] has family commitments and all were pleased that their Colonel could attend the ceremony.
The Irish Guards, who recruits mainly from Northern Ireland, was founded by Queen Victoria in April 1900 to commemorate the Irishmen who died fighting during the Boer War.
More recently, the battalion were also among the last units to be deployed to Afghanistan.

For 85 minutes, the awkward prospect of Manuel Pellegrini outrunning Pep Guardiola in the Champions League was amusingly real. For just as long, Guardiola faced the extraordinary possibility of being cast as a Bayern Munich failure.
That is the strange lot for a man who looks set to collect a third straight Bundesliga title but whose appointment three years ago was based on the greater brief of winning the Champions League. Cleaning up domestic business is nice and expected; winning in Europe is all that ever really mattered.
On Wednesday night, that almost came crashing down in a weird and wonderful match between the best of Italy and the best of Germany. Juventus crushed Bayern for more than an hour and led by goals from Paul Pogba and Juan Cuadrado, giving them a 4-2 aggregate lead.

Margot Robbie Unknowingly Followed Prince Harry into a Photo Booth
She"s swiftly become one of the silver screen"s most popular vamps.
But on Tuesday Margot Robbie was in a more low key mood as she jetted into Los Angeles.
The 25-year-old pulled her blonde hair back into a loose half ponytail as she went make-up free at LAX Airport.

Take a walk on the casual side:Margot Robbie was in a more low key mood as she jetted into Los Angeles on Tuesday wearing patched boyfriend jeans by Zoe Karssen
However, despite her low key arrival the Australian star still managed to bring some edge to her attire.
Margot sported ripped jeans which were covered in sewn on patches ranging from a cartoon bulldog to movie theater popcorn, a slogan stating "I"m ready if you are", and an image of a hamburger.
Completing her outfit were impeccably white Nike sneakers and a black V-neck sweater.

Margot"s latest film Whiskey Tango Foxtrot stars Tina Fey, who plays a news producer that takes an assignment in Kabul, Afghanistan where she meets Tanya Vanderpoel (Robbie) who becomes her mentor in the war zone.
The film is currently in US theaters and comes to UK cinemas on April 22.
Two weeks ago during the promo tour for the film Tina and Margot decided to get back into character during a press junket which saw them turn the tables on a string of unsuspecting journalists with a little role reversal.

Promoting their new movie, Tina, 45, asked one reporter what kind of gift he"d bring Margot Robbie if he could - to which he swiftly replied: "My virginity."
The racy comment left the 25-year-old giggling in embarrassment, while Tina grinned for a split second before pulling a straight face and simply responding: "Okay."
The talented twosome also had a moment withWSVN Miami"sChris Van Vliet, who recently went viral after Leslie Mann and Dakota Johnson openly flirted with him while promoting their rom-com, How To Be Single.
Margot took the lead, boldly asking: "It"s common knowledge that your sock game is strong."
The Miami-based journalist then showed off some cute socks he was wearing, to which a blunt Tina responded: "Ah, Space Invaders?"
"My virginity!" A straight-faced reporter left Margot blushing after Tina Fey asked him what gift he would give the Australian actress if he had the opportunity
Bargain binsused to cap every aisle in the Wal-Marts and Targets of yesteryear, but these days youll find them mostly in prairieland truck stops and struggling video stores. As many of us here at CoS spent more than a few Friday nights hunched over those bins, we decided to scour the Earth for those remaining few. What lies within? Who are they meant for? Are they any good? Welcome to Dumpster Diving.
St. Patricks Day is finally here, me lads and lasses a hallowed time when everyone in America gloriously celebrates the ancient, stereotypically Irish tradition of wearing all green, getting wasted on cheap beer, and engaging in acts of general civil disobedience and recklessness. Its not the only St. Paddys Day tradition in our history, though, as the Leprechaun franchise sought to bring us all together in our assumed 90s fears of both little people and the Irish through Warwick Davis iconic (and murderous) villain. In this installment ofDumpster Diving, we head into the deepest, darkest caverns of direct-to-DVD obscurity to examine what happens when Leprechaun launches its titular sprite into the stars.
THE MOVIE: LEPRECHAUN 4: IN SPACE (1996)FOUND AT:
Evencinema on the caliber ofLeprechaun 4: In Spaceisavailable in full on YouTube! Sure, I had to plonk down the four bucks to watch it (in HD no less!), but hey, I had the Google Play credits. Sue me.
STORY:
Abandoning all pretense of the Leprechaun being an Earth-bound creature of Irish legend whose insatiable l**t for gold gives him an unquenchable thirst for bloodlust and impaling people onto pogo sticks, Leprechaun 4: In Space sees him as a kind of intergalactic trickster G*d, trawling the stars in search of more and more gold. This time around, he finds himself working out some kind of deal with the buxom Princess Zarina (Rebecca Carlton), wherein they both marry each other and then kill each other to get more gold?
Enter a crew of dopey Space Marines, who proceed to kill the Leprechaun and p**s on his corpse in a state of virtually homoerotic delight. (Death from above, Sergeant Metal Head Hooker (Tim Colceri) growls. He has a metal head, you see.) They haul Zarina and the gold back to their ship, with the Leprechaun hiding in a Marines urethra more on that later and ready to take his revenge.
CAST:
Warwick Davis, arguably one of the hardest-working actors in Hollywood, is the only returning character from the rest of the Leprechaun series. Sorry guys, no Jennifer Aniston (who starred in the first) here just the guy who played Willow slumming it away in one of the few franchises that will give actors of Davis stature top billing and a steady paycheck.
Nearly everyone else is the same softcore Skinemax-caliber set of plastic bodies and chiseled white jaws play-acting as low-rent space Marines, the particular exceptions being theaforementioned Sgt. Hooker and Guy Siners simpering Dr. Mittenhand, a half-robot German mad scientist who spends all day rolling around like Doctor Whos Davros and negging his crewmates. Oh, and poor Miguel A. Nunez, Jr. (Deejay from Street Fighter: The Movie) as the films resident comic relief. At least he makes it to the end!
JOURNEY TO THE BARGAIN BIN:
Leprechaun 4s story is the oldest one in the book: horror franchises, particularly in the 90s, naturally suffered from diminishing returns and were reduced to increasingly bizarre gimmicks in order to inject some much-needed novelty into later installments. If anything, it was only a matter of time before the Leprechaun went to space; its happened to the likes of Jason Voorhees, the Critters, and Pinhead, to name a few. The popularity of space-horror pictures like Alien inspired every horror series that followed to make their iconic monsters creep around dimly lit, gray corridors and be sucked out of airlocks at some point. It was dismal, and it lacked in creativity, but hey, it seemed to work.
Oddly enough, going to space is far from the lowest, cheapest point this series would reach, given the two (two!) Leprechaun: In the Hood movies that followed.
WHY IT REMAINS IN THE BIN:
Im not one to cite Rotten Tomatoes as the end-all, be-all of a films objective quality, and sometimes the Metacritic-ing of film criticism and discourse can stifle honest appraisals of a movie. That being said, Leprechaun 4: In Space has an RT score of 0%. ZERO. Pixels has a higher rating than that. So does Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2. Those numbers absolutely do not lie.
Independent of critical appraisal, Leprechaun 4 is simply a strange, cheesy, and inexplicable animal. A number of movies (all bad) compete for screen time in this bit of micro-budget, direct-to-video schlock. Its a movie about a demonic leprechaun, a chintzy Aliens clone, an interstellar romance, and a cheap skin flick all at once. All the space Marines are classic meathead dunces, stopping their incessant bro-talk only to s*x it up with the lovely Zarina and/or have their dicks eradicated by the Leprechaun.
In Spaces biggest crime is not even getting the Leprechaun right Davis chews the Styrofoam scenery as best he can, but his characters normally devilish humor is whittled down to cheap one-liners like Always wear a prophylactic!, and his kills arent nearly as creative as they used to be. By the time you see him produce a lightsaber from nowhere in a snide shout-out to Star Wars, youre already confused and tired of In Spaces cynical space shenanigans.
WORTH THE DIVE?
At first glance, the prospect of unartfully shoving a leprechaun into a dime-store corridor crawler might actually transcend its home video trappings and enter into so-bad-its-good territory, and the arguments in its favor stack the more you watch it. The Leprechaun sneaks into a spaceship by hiding in a dudes d**k! Said dude refers to his d**k as Mr. Snake during a sexual encounter! Said d**k explodes during a s*x scene, so the Leprechaun can escape! The mad German scientist Dr. Mittenhand turns himself into a genetically altered spider and insists he be called Dr. Mittenspider! Despite these rare nuggets of fun, though, the whole thing is confusing and drab for long stretches as the bland leads mumble through lame dialogue while we wait for Davis to show up.
The Leprechaun series has never been anything more than a niche horror curiosity, but at least the earlier films felt relatively novel a curious spin on the adolescent question, What if the Lucky Charms mascot murdered people?. The downside for any horror franchise that tries to go to space is that the entries never feel like the thing you wanted in the first place. Its all just Aliens rip-offs with the titular baddie copy-pasted in place of the xenomorph. In the case of Leprechaun 4, this could not be more apparent, and the film suffers mightily for it.
But who am I kidding? If you were to get high and pop it in with a couple of friends late at night and enjoy the h**l out of every increasingly campy kill and ridiculous bon mot from Mr. Mittenhand, youd be right to do so.
