The Indiana Daily Student

Adoption adaptation

·

Some days it's a shame this paper isn't a tabloid. If it were the New York Post or Britain's Sun, we could run a headline like: "State of Indiana Hates Kids, Gays" or "Indiana to Orphans: Drop Dead!" Would this be unfair? Yes, probably.

Fanboys please: Stop with the fronting

·

I see your sideways glances at my Batman carrier bag, riddled with condescension. I've suffered the looks of disapproval when I jog past you on a Sunday afternoon: me in my Superman shirt, you in your Connor Kent Superboy hoodie.

Malick's brave 'New World'

·

Terrence Malick's "The New World" is a film that requires a lot out of its viewer. It is not for the average, passive filmgoer and it is not for someone merely interested in just catching a glimpse of Colin Farrell's robust Irish chest.

Great name, decent debut

·

Gnarls Barkley seems like the most unlikely of artistic progressions: a former Dirty South rapper turned soul star and a former Athens, Georgia DJ turned virtuoso hip-hop producer collaborate to form a side project influenced by Motown, Seattle and Manchester.

Spielberg expertly tackles terror

·

Being the more substantial half of Steven Spielberg's red-letter 2005 (along with War of the Worlds), "Munich" tells the tale of the terrorist group Black September's hi-jacking of Munich Germany's 1972 Olympic Games during which they kidnaped and killed a group of Israeli athletes.

Young takes on the system

·

It's been almost 40 years since Neil Young released his self-titled debut solo album, yet the 60-year-old is as relevant today as artists half his age.

A stadium sized record

·

The Red Hot Chili Peppers are back after a four year hiatus. In their first release since 2002's By The Way, Anthony Kiedis and the gang bring you a double-disc effort titled Stadium Arcadium, which may at first sound like the name of a live album.

Out of luck

·

If Lindsay Lohan was trying to portray a more mature role and bring her acting career to a more serious level, then she is out of luck. It seems as if director Donald Petrie was going for something like his 2003's "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days".

'United 93' brings 9/11 memories to life

·

One might think that Hollywood is trying to capitalize on the worst terrorist attack ever on American soil with "United 93," and while this is true to a point, the film was certainly made with a great deal of dignity and respect to the victims' families.

Karaoke Kings

·

Some say karaoke is the poor man's version of American Idol. For Derek Reckley, it's just another chance to get up on stage and do what he loves -- entertain people.

Campus press pressed

·

On this page -- whether writing as columnists, or on the IDS's behalf -- we're not afraid to hold the University administration's feet to the fire.

IUSA plans downloading services

·

During this spring's IU Student Association elections, the Hoosier party garnered many eager followers, largely thanks to its promise to provide a media downloading service to students.
