Statements were made on Saturday, and there was plenty of movement in the college football world on Sunday. After another weekend of action, which featured everything from kickoff returns to #SurrenderCobras, there is still little movement between the top teams in college football. Obviously it is just one weekend in a long season, but if teams such as Louisville can indicate they belong in the College Football Playoff Picture, then the Alabama Crimson Tide should be fearful that their spot at the top of college football is threatened by a deeper elite tier.

The Georgia State Panthers certainly will have their work cut out for them this upcoming weekend when they face off against the Wisconsin Badgers. But in a college football season already littered with upsets and surprises, the Badgers should be prepared for anything to happen.

GREEN BAY (Wis.) — Everyone knew the formula the Wisconsin Badgers had to follow to pull off the upset at Lambeau Field against No. 5 ranked LSU: find a way to stop Leonard Fournette. For 35 minutes, this defense did the seemingly impossible, and that was long enough for the offense to secure the win.

A soon-to-be out-of-business shoe factory is saved by a fortuitous encounter with a team of drag queens, needing footwear that can meet the needs of their profession. This was all I knew about the show Kinky Boots, a Tony Award-winning broadway musical, before I had the opportunity to see it on July 12 at the Overture Center. I was extremely excited as it had been quite awhile since I’ve indulged in live theater, and I love experiencing the magic that happens on stage.

Students can look forward to a much-needed break this summer and there is no better way to spend that time than to kick back in a cinema to enjoy the blockbusting lineup of summer movies. Just as final exams kick off, so too does “Captain America: Civil War.” The third installment in the Captain America saga is already garnering critical acclaim, giving a jolt of adrenaline to summer moviegoers. Fans of the superhero genre also have DC’s “Suicide Squad” coming on August 6. The action genre can also bolster films like “Jason Bourne,” the highly anticipated continuation of the popular Bourne Trilogy. For those of us looking for something a little more light-hearted this summer, Steven Spielberg may have an answer to that in “The BFG,” a film adaptation of Roald Dahl’s novel. Other adaptations set for release include “Me Before You,” a love story starring Sam Claflin and Emilia Clarke, and “Alice Through the Looking Glass,” a sequel to the 2010 film “Alice in Wonderland.” No matter the genre preference, there is always something new coming around the corner for moviegoers this summer.

The Marquee International Film Festival arrived this past weekend, hosted by the WUD Film Committee. Each day was packed with spectacular films from more than 25 countries that spanned an array of genres and storylines to give viewers a taste of what these diverse perspectives have to offer. This was also the first time WUD Film has hosted this type of film festival, and in my eyes, it was a successful event that I hope to see more of in the future.

For a budding artist, undergraduate and graduate school can be a time of development, sometimes shaky, and at other times beautifully brilliant. Art is a process, and a long one at that, and I personally enjoy exploring the early works of the greats such as Salvador Dalí or Andy Warhol and seeing their growth as artists. The process of an artist finding themself and their style in their work is captivating, and I saw this very phenomenon at WUD Art’s 88th Annual Student Art Show at Union South. Displaying emerging student artists from the UW-Madison community, the show provides a varied collection of works in numerous media formats that all illustrate the creativity and passion of our own students.

I think we’ve been watching Rihanna grow into herself since we first heard the bad gal’s dance-infused “Pon de Replay.” Her precision has been gaining her well-respected props as a music mogul.

“Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” has been a highly anticipated movie since it was first announced. As the follow-up to Zack Snyder’s polarizing film “Man of Steel,” the time leading up to the next installment in the DC Cinematic Universe was ripe with debate. Who will win, Batman or Superman? Will this film make up for the missteps in “Man of Steel?” Will it be successful? With the film having flown into theaters on March 25, we have some answers to those questions—sort of.

AUSTIN, Texas— Sunday brought more excitement to the film scene down in Austin, Texas. At the Convention Center, Kerry Washington gave her insight on the positives and negatives of social media and how she chooses to portray herself within the public eye.

Theater venues like the Paramount premiered screenings of “The Trust,” starring Nicholas Cage and Elijah Wood, “Don’t Think Twice,” with Keegan-Michael Key and “Hardcore Henry” by director Ilya Naishuller.
