2008

So I watched the new Tool DVD. Before you watch it, be warned that it does contain some disturbing images and artwork, from the mind of Adam Jones and many collaborators.

Many feel that hip culture and Provo mix like oil and water. To a certain degree, this is understandable. But did you know that Provo has a happening scene? That’s right; not all just a bunch of cookie-cutter BYU students walking around looking for the best ice cream joint for their group date.

Even though the buzz has been extremely high for the latest P.T. Anderson (Magnolia, Punch-drunk Love, Boogie Nights) flick There Will Be Blood the love the critics have shared won’t be wide-felt.

Looking for a way to escape this winter’s cold temperatures?

Almost everybody remembers seeing the Cloverfield trailer before Transformers last summer, only then it was still unnamed and known only for its release date – 01.18.08. The teaser showed a going away party in a New York apartment from the lens of a camcorder held by one of the characters when, suddenly, an earthquake hits, buildings explode, fireballs fall and the Statue of Liberty’s head comes crashing down the street. Everyone was left to ask, “What was that?”

The premise to the new romantic comedy 27 Dresses is that Jane (Knocked Up’s Katherine Heigl) is a single girl living in New York who has been a bride’s maid 27 times, yet never been married herself. If you know what Heigl looks like, you’re thinking, “Yeah, right! She’d never be single.” But when you see the movie, you quickly learn why.

I am not a dandy.

For the second installation in The College Times’ How To series, we will try to teach students how to bypass a traffic violation.

Put on your fancy warm winter clothes, make yourself look nice and be sure to grab your camera with extra batteries because the 2008 Sundance Film Festival (SFF) is going on now.
