The greatest movie of all time, Demolition Man, taught us that in the future every restaurant will be Taco Bell.

What they missed was that everything else will be Angry Birds. Here’s the tally to date, as far as I can tell:

  • Angry Birds
  • Angry Birds Seasons
  • Angry Birds Rio
  • Angry Birds Magic (exclusive to Symbian)
  • Angry Birds plush toys
  • Angry Birds, the board game
  • Angry Birds, the animated shorts
  • Angry Birds, the movie (in development)
  • Angry Birds onesie and other baby gear
  • Angry Birds in various ads
  • Angry Birds, the cookbook

Am I missing any? And what’s your suggestion for the next frontier for Angry Birds to conquer?

It would appear that not everyone is as up on Angry Birds as we think…..this was a correction online by New York Times

….Correction: October 22, 2011
An earlier version of this article incorrectly stated the premise of “Angry Birds,” a popular iPhone game. In the game, slingshots are used to launch birds to destroy pigs and their fortresses, not to shoot down the birds.

Just my toonies worth
