2010s in Film: Breaking Ground in Box Office While Grounding Us
The 2010s– it seemed like forever ago we had sparkling vampires and Leonardo DeCaprio invading peoples’ consciousness. Now, in the late 2010s, we have a misshapen CGI Sonic the Hedgehog, a purple grape fighting an overweight god, and an invasion of terribly, misplaced live action Disney movies. This decade was also filled with cinematic gems…
Peyton Tried It: Liquid Starburst – Cherry Flavor
Halloween may be over but your inner 8 year old still craves the sweet cherry flavor of a liquified Starburst. Upon first inspection, the powder that is going to be mixed into the water is a sugar consistency and is the same shade as a red apple. The powder smells like Maraschino cherry juice…

Taking a bath doesn’t work. You put on your headphones: “When the sun peaks out, I sit outside to bask in my tiny bit of…
SKAM: The Teenage-Drama That Will Have You Head Over Heels
“Minute by Minute” might be the three best words to explain why you should be watching SKAM if you’re not already. These words are at the heart of a core, revolutionary, and romantic relationship between Isak and Even in this Norwegian show: SKAM (Norwegian for ‘Shame’). SKAM aired season one in September of 2015 on…
GOT Review – Underwhelming
Season 8 stuck to the 2010’s tradition of finding your favorite therapist to deal with things. Yet, the finale of Game of Thrones, “The Iron Throne”, was underwhelming and boring. I think this might be the worst episode of a show in a long time, maybe since season 5 for long time fans. I thought…
