False Advertising, Brandeis' oldest improv group, held its first show of the semester this past Saturday, packing Cholmondeley's with a show that featured current students as well as three alumni from the class of 2012: Jesse Appell, Louis Polisson and Hannah Wellish. The show was divided into two halves, beginning with a long form piece, which, for the uninitiated, is a skit based around a topic suggested by the audience.
For about as long as there's been aristocracy in Britain, there have been authors and playwrights who've made their name poking fun at it.
It's been a rough couple of months for Community fans. After ending its winter run on a high note with an ostensibly Christmas-themed episode (which quickly became an excuse to skewer Glee), the show was suddenly pulled from NBC's lineup, going on what the network termed a "hiatus." To many fans, it looked like NBC was going to finally pull Community from the schedule altogether after two and a half seasons. For the uninitiated, Community follows the lives of seven students at Greendale Community College who, after forming a study group on the fly in the first episode, have become a tight-knit circle of friends.
The Grey may very well be the best argument for never setting foot in Alaska. The film presents the nation's largest state as a desolate, inhospitable place where terrain, weather and animals all conspire to kill any and all humans as quickly and gruesomely as possible.
In some ways, Nipun Marwaha '12 is like a lot of Brandeis students.
Mission: Impossible?Ghost Protocol is something of a throwback. In an age where most spy movies take their cue from the gritty Bourne series or Daniel Craig's brooding, cold-blooded take on James Bond, Ghost Protocol dares to be gleefully unrealistic and, most importantly, fun.
It's something of a miracle that there even was a Surfer Blood concert on Sunday night. After all, the band, along with local electro-rock outfit Bearstronaut, was slated to play at Cholmondeley's on Halloween.
Going off the premise alone, you'd be forgiven for dismissing Drive as a mindless action movie.
This past Thursday, two shows celebrating the works of Brandeis' senior and post-baccalaureate students opened on campus.
Cartoon Network's Adventure Time is kind of a weird show. Anyone who's watched an episode can tell you that.
