Will Smith Weighs In On That Viral Fan-Made Trailer That Dramatically Reimagines 'Bel-Air'
One might make the argument that nostalgia is at its strongest. Between shows like Fuller House or the new Will and Grace, continuations or reinterpretations of old favorites have been very popular.
Morgan Cooper felt we could use another one and directed a trailer turning The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air into the highly dramatic Bel-Air.
And it looks pretty dope.

The trailer takes the story of Will Smith getting in trouble on the streets Philadelphia and being forced to live with his uncle in Bel-Air and gives it the gravitas you might expect from a modern Oscar contender.
The trailer stars Jerry Madison Jr. as Will Smith turning the struggle of the lifestyle he's used to clashing with the lifestyle of his uncle and cousin.
And people are here for it!

How I Really Feel About That BEL-AIR Trailerwww.youtube.com
Smith interviews Cooper about the trailer, asking,
"So, how did that idea come to you to do that?"
Cooper responded,
"Well, you know, I grew up watching the show."
Smith was impressed with the concept, remarking,
"The dramatic version of these ideas means that you can use existing storylines but, it's not going to seem like you're redoing an episode because the storyline is going to be brand-new from the dramatic perspective."
With Will Smith so onboard with this idea, it has people wondering if we could make this real.
Will Smith approves of BEL-AIR, too, which is a fact I learned from his charmingly normie YouTube account.… https://t.co/8jUpKoWOsg— Michael Hingston (@Michael Hingston) 1556552123.0

At the moment, it's unclear what the future will bring for Cooper's reimagining. However it is very clear that he's a talented filmmaker with a bright future ahead.

Girls Reveal What They Look For The First Time They Visit A Guy's House
Spoiler Alert: Bathrooms. Women (and guests in general) really appreciate it when your bathroom is clean, stocked with toilet paper, and has things like a trash can, soap and a hand towel. There. I just earned you 100 points with your friends, family, and that cutie you've been eyeballing lately. You're welcome.
Reddit user bepseh asked:
Girls of Reddit what are some things you look for when visiting a guys place for the first time?
There were tons of responses, you guys; and no, they didn't all involve the bathroom. The number that did involve the bathroom has be asking a lot of questions about the hygiene practices of the dating male, but that's for another time. Here are some of the more popular answers, edited for language if needed.

Will Smith Just Shared A Video Of 6-Year-Old Jaden After He Cut His Own Hair That Is Too Precious
Every parent loves to troll their kid and vice versa. But what happens when parent and kid are both celebrities in their own right?
We get the privilege of witnessing the beauty unfold, that's what.
As a flashback Friday, Will Smith chose to share an old short film he made in which he investigates the disappearance of his son Jaden's hair.
It begins with Will Smith talking directly to the camera...
"So, I come in the house. You know my son Jaden, I kiss his head and there's a little hair in my mouth, so I begin walking around the house."
Then he begins to ominously pan to piles of hair around the house while saying...
"I start to notice little thingsHe finally arrives at Jaden, whose head has been haphazardly shorn. And when he asks Jaden what happened, he gets the most epically six-year-old answer ever...
"I don't know."
Of course, Jaden Smith has always been a fashion icon.

"Get Hungry When I Smell Roses"—People Share Which Pavlovian Responses They've Been Conditioned With
We all fall slave to the quirks of others and life in general. There are incidents in life that have trained us to react in ways that are out of our control. A certain smell can make us cry, a significant sound can trigger the same bodily rote response, a song can make us hungry... no joke. Much like the teachings of the great manipulator Pavlov and his pooches we too are conditioned in ways we may never even recognize. Sometimes it's an unplanned behavior sparked by the mercy of life other times... people are messing with us.
Redditor u/nirvamandi was wondering what small details have we been conditioned with in life by asking.... What Pavlovian response have you developed?
