“Don’t try to understand it. Feel it.”
As the rest of the world lies in waiting for Christopher Nolan’s “Tenet,” I’ve shifted my attention towards another blockbuster coming down the post-COVID pipeline in the next 12-15 months — a familiar figure of comic book lore Nolan himself has successfully and notably tackled before.
As musicians grapple with the past few months that proved to be a pause on their regular scheduled programming, the silence has given them a chance to redefine what it means to interact, or in this case, perform live. Gathering in a sweaty music venue and watching someone perform live is a hard thing to imagine right now. With numbers across the country still going up as thousands of students return to college campuses, a slight return to normalcy serves as a dream. Local music venues are struggling to hold on as their main sources of income are at a halt. Patrons are encouraged to donate and support them in whatever way they can.
Seth Rogen may be one of the most enjoyable comedians of our time to watch, yet his latest project is a set-back to his impressive resume that includes memorable roles in comedies such as “Knocked Up” and “This Is The End.”
As our COVID-riddled state rolls back openings and braces for whatever the months ahead hold, these past few weeks of “Summer: Live from Wisconsin Quarantine!” have started to feel like they’re simply repeating the same events every single day. Over and over — and over again.
With Covid-19 closing movie theaters around the world, many of us are relying on streaming services for new entertainment. Netflix has released several films over the course of the pandemic, its latest the hit action thriller “The Old Guard.” Reaching millions of new homes and proving to be a major hit for Netflix, such success cannot save this film from its overwhelming stupidity.
I spent about four months in isolation — with almost everyone I knew having gone home. Wanting to preserve my sanity and not depend too heavily on texts to feel “normal,” I had to find something to engage in. So I binged on TV shows, rewatching previously watched favorites, but also doing some exploration based on recommendations and my own instinct. One show I did land upon during this time by myself was “30 Rock,” Tina Fey’s brainchild, which flies in the face of the misogynistic idea that women cannot be funny — something that the show amusingly pokes fun at.
In a year where most movies have been delayed from releasing due to the coronavirus pandemic, famed filmmaker Spike Lee has come to the rescue to deliver one of his most jaw-dropping, explosive joints that is sure to knock your socks off.
In exploring the endless titles for recommended viewing during quarantine I came across a recommendation for the FX crime drama "Justified." After binging the whole series in an unhealthy amount of time, I found that when I looked deeper, the series provides an interesting look into America’s police culture and when police are and aren’t justified.
I, Anupras, came into this semester facing a new responsibility. This was my first semester taking on the mantle of Opinion Editor, hoping this role would add color to my life. Lucky for me, my co-editor Sam Jones turned out to be an effervescent breath of fresh air — any apprehensions I had about working together with another person had been put to ease. The very first thing I noticed about her, way back in January (which now feels like 10 years ago) was that we had the exact same headphones. Months down the line, it would stand for a lot more than just mere coincidence.
Alina Baraz blessed the quarantine music scene with the release of her long-awaited studio album debut two weeks early. Following her two EPs — “Urban Flora” (2015) and “The Color of You” (2018), “It Was Divine” properly showcases Baraz’s unmitigated talent, proving her skill despite her comparatively short discography. Backed by well-known featured artists, such as long-time collaborator Khalid and R&B star 6lack, Baraz takes the negative impacts of heartbreak and creates something beautiful, “making a home out of herself.”
Lately we’ve seen the release of several films that explore the issue of wealth inequality and class difference, South Korea’s “Parasite” and “Burning” especially coming to mind. While a fascinating narrative to pursue, it seems as if too many films are reusing the same themes and believing that as long as a social theme is centered around the story, that it makes it profound.
Now more than ever, we need love.
We’re currently experiencing massive delays on just about every kind of America’s favorite pastimes. Whether it be sports, broadway shows, festivals or just the delicacy of hanging out with family and friends, things are on a halt all across the board.
We’re approaching the fourth week of the binge-watching marathon to end them all, but there’s only been one show that’s managed to catch my attention and hold me fully captivated on a technical and emotional level unlike anything I’ve seen on TV so far this year.
It’s hard to be critical of the company that gave us some of our most beloved franchises. “Toy Story,” “The Incredibles,” “Finding Nemo,” are only a few of the many classics to come from Pixar.
It’s astonishing to think about how just three weeks ago, life was completely normal. I was attending my college classes, sleeping in my dorm room and seeing my friends daily. It felt like a switch went off as schools started sending their students home in light of the coronavirus outbreak in the United States. As I manically texted each of my friends I knew at other schools that were taking measures, I hoped for the best for Wisconsin. However, just two days later, I was in my hometown in quarantine, miles and miles away from my college friends.
New music Friday seems to be hitting differently during a period of quarantine.
In a nutshell, the Dixie Chicks are back and better than ever. Earlier this March, the American country (some might even say a touch folk-y, or country-pop) band released their first song in 14 years. And it did not disappoint.
In the first scene of FX on Hulu’s new comedy series “Dave,” you get the whole picture on the biggest insecurity faced by protagonist Dave Burd, otherwise known as internet rapper Lil Dicky. Terrified to reveal the physical situation happening “below the belt” for his unassuming doctor, Burd gets way too far into the smaller details, pulls his pants down and lets the laughs ensue.
