I’d like to thank the Academy (for screwing up again)

Blake Beck January 13, 2013

It’s almost cliche to complain about the Academy Awards these days. Year after year, there’s always one or two — maybe even more — gargantuan snubs that seem to get the so-called “know-it-alls”...

Tarantino unchained

Blake Beck January 6, 2013

Quentin Tarantino lays the same foundation in each of his motion pictures; a healthy amount of ultra-violence, coarse language, and a bizarre, sometimes outrageous, sense of humor. For most filmmakers,...

It’s not always what it seems

December 7, 2012

My Saturday morning began rather ordinarily. I woke up, made a quick breakfast, and began my typical perusing of the various social media websites I frequent. As I was listening to some tunes, something...

Review: “The Boys Next Door”

Blake Beck November 9, 2012

In what was arguably the Spotlight Players’ toughest production to date, “The Boys Next Door” features seniors Andrew Henke and Ben Patty, as well as juniors Evan Richard and Charlie Grant, engaging...

Star Wars Episode VII: Attack of the Mouse

Blake Beck November 4, 2012

I remember the weekend of May 19, 2005, quite vividly. Receiving the golden ticket to “Revenge of the Sith,” the Wehrenberg theme song, heck, even the tangy taste of my movie theater root beer. But...

Get with the times

Blake Beck October 29, 2012

Sometimes I can’t help but listen in on a conversation between a few “cavemen” who have an intense hatred for a little something called CGI (computer-generated imagery). I shake my head in disgust...

Halloween horror

Blake Beck October 21, 2012

I know how it goes. You’re hanging out with friends on a crisp October night, presumably gathered around the warmth of a bonfire, and one of your buddies comes up with the brilliant idea of watching...

Fall break halts rehearsal

October 20, 2012

Ordinary students were not the only ones enjoying the week and a half long fall break as the Spotlight Players also had the opportunity to escape some stress. With less than a month until the group’s...

We’re not in Smallville anymore

Blake Beck October 14, 2012

It’s hard to believe that the CW’s golden child “Smallville” ended over one year ago after 10 seasons, but the network has delivered yet another live-action series based on a DC Comics trademark....

Pleasantly surprising

Blake Beck October 7, 2012

Two years ago, “Inception” hit movie theaters across the globe and left moviegoers in a vegetative state. The complex story of director Christopher Nolan’s brainchild instantly garnered discussion...

Not so sorry Rams

September 30, 2012

It appears the Chicago Cubs are no longer the most hated team in St. Louis, and it’s not their neighbors, the Blackhawks, that have claimed this prestigious title. Oh no, it’s our friendly neighborhood...

And then there was one

Blake Beck September 30, 2012

The boys are back in town, and by boys, I mean the quartet of Cartman, Kenny, Kyle, and Stan. The town? South Park. That’s right, Comedy Central’s hit animated sitcom “South Park” made its triumphant...
