Game Live tour comes to Bloomington

By Dan Patrick · Thursday, Oct. 28,2004 12:17 a.m.

For the average IU student, most weekday trips through Dunn Meadow are purely for utilitarian purposes such as getting to class. However, students got something a little different Wednesday as the Union Board sponsored a gaming exposition from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the edge of the meadow.

Psychic faith

By Colin Kearns · Thursday, Oct. 28,2004 12 a.m.

Nine days before Halloween, the weather almost seemed too good to be true. An oceanic sky cradled clumps of perfect clouds, the wind flowed subtly but carried enough strength to refresh walkers and cyclists and the sun gave a warm glow that reminded the student of early spring.

Really, what the Helsing?

By C. Warner Sills · Thursday, Oct. 28,2004 12 a.m.

Well, it's that time again. Pumpkins are being sold all over town, the candy industry is preparing for its biggest day of the season and somewhere a posse of young hoodlums is compiling a stash of toilet paper and fresh grade-A eggs. Yes, it's time for everyone's favorite holiday, Halloween.

Classic war film reborn

By -Alec Toombs · Thursday, Oct. 28,2004 12 a.m.

Oliver Stone has certainly earned his title as moviemaking's grand provocateur of the past 20 years. Between "Platoon," "JFK" and "Natural Born Killers," Stone has consistently stirred up cinematic shitstorms.

Prepare to pee yourself

By Zach Noe Towers and Zach Towers · Thursday, Oct. 28,2004 12 a.m.

Finally, a film that lives up to everything scary movies are known for, and then some. The second installment of the Japanese series created by Takashi Shimizu, "The Grudge" in itself is a completely disconnected story from "The Ring;" however, if you liked one, you'll more than likely enjoy the other.

Dustin Hoffman and Lily Tomlin play detective duo Bernard and Vivian Jaffe in “I Heart Huckabees.”

'Huckabees' an exercise in existentialism

By -Alec Toombs · Thursday, Oct. 28,2004 12 a.m.

David O. Russell is one weird dude. After making his directorial debut with the icky incest comedy "Spanking the Monkey," Russell made two of the '90s most underrated flicks in the forms of a trippy road movie ("Flirting with Disaster") and an eerily prescient Gulf War satire ("Three Kings").

DVD spotlights worst director ever

By John Barnett · Thursday, Oct. 28,2004 12 a.m.

"Glen or Glenda," "Bride of the Monster," "Plan 9 from Outer Space"? Most people these days have never heard of those films, let alone seen them. They were all directed, albeit haphazardly, by Edward D. Wood Jr., widely considered to be the worst director in film history.

Night of the living British people

By Doug Evans · Thursday, Oct. 28,2004 12 a.m.

While the title of the film immediately suggests a zombie spoof flick, "Shaun of the Dead" is more on par with a Mel Brooks movie than another installment of "Scary Movie."

A 'fond farewell' to a tragic genius

By -Nate Bethea · Thursday, Oct. 28,2004 12 a.m.

It's a small consolation that Elliott Smith's posthumous release is not by any means the kind of opportunistic barrel scraping that you see with Tupac Shakur's material.
