Revenge of University of Alaska-Fairbanks Nanooks Hockey Hype-Video
Because the original was so awesome, lighting the Internets on fire, the University of Alaska-Fairbanks Hockey hype machine went back to the Hollywood formula of franchise and dug deep for a sequel to their first space-borne anger bear dominates the solar system plot line and took it up a notch to unleash Nanook at an inter-galactic level. Unlike Hollywood sequels, it does not disappoint.
And yet, part two is still under the radar with less than 1,000 YouTube views as of this writing, but it won't stay so for long. Early chatter is drawing comparisons to a Scientology scripture or the continuing story arc of Battlestar Galactica. This one's for you MMCY.

University of Alask-Fairbanks Nanooks Hockey Hype Video
If you are like me, a fellow student of the Internets, you know that the tubes have been on fire for a few weeks over this gem of a hype video for the University of Alaska-Fairbanks Nanooks Hockey team. But it merits some further analysis.
Consider the concept. We've got a polar bear (Nanook) going on a cosmic rampage in which he is born from the big dipper, supernovas, destroys a planet, the moon and the rival city of Anchorage, before finally tearing the roof off the Carlson Center and landing on the ice to pump up the crowd. Nanook gradually shrinks throughout his journey, as his rage subsides, much like the Incredible Hulk, whose strength and power also share a high P value with his level of anger.
