Blu-ray Review: Hotel Rwanda

   

“I think if people see this footage they’ll say, “Oh my God that’s horrible,” and then go on eating their dinners.”

by Brenda Waldrop, Media Editor

Sadly, as chronicled in the epic film Hotel Rwanda, that’s precisely what most of the world did.  In April of 1994 they sat back, eating their dinners and living their lives, while they watched as a genocide claiming the lives of over 800,000 Rwandans raged in a country that most people had barely heard of.  Based on the true story of Paul Rusesabagina, expertly portrayed by Don Cheadle, who saved over 1,200 Tutsi’s during the 100 day genocide in 1994.

Movie Review: Bridesmaids

Written by Katt Jurado, Reporter

It’s about time!  Finally, the gloves come off and a movie is written about women being women.  With the honesty of Mean Girls, the humor of Ellen DeGeneres, and the heart of Baby Mama, Bridesmaids continues the revolution of women’s roles in comedy.

iPad Game Review: Thor Son of Asgard

by Caleb Paullus, Media Editor, Games

You’ve seen the movie right? If you haven’t read our review on it and then get your butt into a theater and watch it already!

Okay, you’re back, you’ve seen the movie. Now, buy the game on your iPad or iPhone! Thor: Son of Asgard, now available in the App Store, is a fun game where players assume the role of Thor and take an epic journey to defend Odin’s Kingdom.

Let me clarify that the game has NOTHING to do with the movie. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, but don’t buy the gaming thinking it’s based off the movie.

Movie Review: Thor

FUCKING THOR! By Caleb Paullus

by Caleb Paullus Media Editor

The God of Hammer-Stroking. Guardian of Asgard.

Let me start off by saying that its difficult to watch a movie for an hour and fourteen minutes when your blood is no longer rushing to your brain. Lucky for you, you don’t need a brain to enjoy this fantastic expansion of the Marvel Universe, Thor.

Don’t see this movie if you are going to try and compare it to just the recent Marvel films released (Iron Man, Iron Man II, The Incredible Hulk) you will be disappointed. However if you look at it comparing it to every Marvel film released in the last twenty years, then you will very satifyied.

Video Game Review: Thor God of Thunder and Captain America: Super Soldier

On Friday I was lucky enough to get a sneak peek at two eagerly awaited games for geeks everywhere. Thor: God of Thunder and Captain America: Super Soldier. All brought to you by a corner stone of the gaming industry Sega. We all got a glimpse of both games last year at New York Comic Con. However this Friday I was able to actually try my hand at both games on each system.
