#OscarsStillSoWhite

February 2, 2016 by Archived posts Leave a Comment

By Carolyn Solar |Staff Writer| For the second year in a row, the acting category of the Oscars consisted of all white nominations. This alone has raised questions about the diversity of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. “The Academy members, also known as the "Oscar voters," range in age from early 40s to late 60s and are all white and male,” according to BET.com. This has people wondering whether this is a test of talent or another case of blatant discrimination. Actress Jada Pinkett Smith decided to take to social media to note her disapproval.

Birdman – Film Review

January 21, 2015 by Archived posts

By Emmanuel Gutierrez |Features Editor| "Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance)" is a viciously cynical, beauteously shot film, teaming with colorful and arresting characters—masterfully directed by Alejandro Gonzalez Iñarritu. "How did we end up here? This place is horrible," said Birdman. "Smells like balls," begins the film, in all its existential insight and blunt, snarky satire. Riggins, played by Michael Keaton, pursues his ambition to write, direct, and star in his initial foray in Broadway, seeking respect and validation from the artistic community, making him a modern day Icarus, whom everyone wishes to crash in a blaze of burning, black feathers—for simply … [Read more...] about Birdman – Film Review

By Maria Perry |Staff Writer| An assortment of dapper suits and bejeweled gowns graced the Oscar red carpet Sunday evening, however, four shone a little brighter than the rest, making them the best dressed of the night.

The simplicity of her hair in a bun topped off the look.         Alicia Vikander wore a baby … [Read more...] about The Best and Worst Dressed at The Oscars

February 24, 2013 by Archived posts Leave a Comment

By Matthew Bramlett |Managing Editor| To borrow an insufferable cliche, it's that time of year again. Hollywood Boulevard is cleansed of its homeless dregs and unhinged superhero impersonators so perfect people who have not eaten in 48 hours can walk slowly down a carpet and flash their finest fake smiles. The Academy Awards are here, and it marks the 85th time in film history that the ancient Knights Templar, who have been kept alive by the purity of Oscar gold for 700 years, emerge from their cavernous prison to present the immaculate golden statues to Daniel Day-Lewis and Jennifer Lawrence (spoiler alert!). Already, the red carpet has produced some eye-opening scenes. Anne Hathaway, … [Read more...] about matts pop culture blog 3 – THE OSCARS

Mr. Brainwash, the eccentric filmmaker turned artist whose real name is Thierry Guetta, has seen his image and personal brand explode in recent years. It began in 2008 with his debut art show “Life is Beautiful,” and continueswith his starring turn in graffiti artist Banksy's documentary on the growing street art phenomenon, Exit Through the Gift Shop. Since Banksy's film opened last year, Mr. Brainwash (or, rather, the idea of Mr. Brainwash,) has been the subject of much speculation.
