‘Cloudward Ho:’ A mediocre masterpiece

December 14, 2025December 14, 2025Miles Gruber

Every once in a while, I get the chance to promote something I really enjoy from my personal life. This time, I wanted to promote a show that I’m pretty sure only two other people in this school have watched. That show is “Cloudward Ho,” the newest show of the acclaimed anthology DND series, “Dimension […]

KO Celebrates the Festival of Light

November 7, 2025December 14, 2025Madhuvanthi Thiyagarajan

The lights of diyas and the smell of Indian food filled the air on Friday evening, October 17, at KO. The cultural decorations and the bright, colorful traditional clothes brought joy to the Community Commons. What once started as a small celebration in Roberts last year during community time has grown into a huge event […]

One Battle After Another is Revolutionary

November 7, 2025December 14, 2025Miles Gruber

I am often considered to be a very critical person. Whenever I tell my friends I don’t like a film, they tease me and call me a snob (which I am, but it’s still very rude). However, one thing that often comes from my constant critique is that if I think a movie is near […]

“Smiling Friends” season three is looking good so far

November 1, 2025December 14, 2025Aarav Mathur

I am not really an avid watcher of Adult Swim at all, to be honest, but I guess I became a viewer of it thanks to one show. That show is “Smiling Friends,” an animated comedy unveiled in 2020 and greenlit for a season release in 2022. Created by the minds of Michael Cusak and […]

Alfred Hitchcock’s “Vertigo”: Is it really the Thriller of the ’50s?

October 3, 2025September 28, 2025Aarav Mathur

This fall, to start another exciting school year, I am taking “The Art of Watching Film” as an elective (great class by the way, I recommend it). One of our first assignments was to watch a film from the top 100 movies of all time according to the American Film Institute. My film of choice […]

‘The Studio’: An anxiously entertaining show

October 3, 2025December 14, 2025Miles Gruber

As the year has gone on, one TV show has stuck out to me as being extremely important. That show is “The Studio,” which, if the Emmys are any indication, Hollywood at large agrees with me that this show is something special. “The Studio,” which follows Matt Remick as he tries to be a good […]

‘Happy Gilmore 2’: A Love Letter to the Original

October 3, 2025December 14, 2025Racheal Segal

When I heard the news of “Happy Gilmore 2” releasing on Netflix this summer, my first thought, naturally, was: Hollywood is still beating a dead horse. Why wouldn’t I? From the number of prequels, sequels, reboots, and remakes being made, it’s clear that originality is on its decline. So, with that active bias in mind, […]

‘Weapons’: An absolute bullseye of a movie

October 3, 2025September 28, 2025Miles Gruber

Every summer, I watch a ton of films. Old movies, new movies, bad movies, good movies, I watched them all this summer. Of all these movies, none have stuck with me so much as the horror movie “Weapons.” It follows multiple people in a town after the disappearance of 17 children in an elementary school […]

‘Sinners’: A Drop-Dead Amazing Film

May 23, 2025May 18, 2025Miles Gruber

‘Sinners’ was not a movie I was expecting to enjoy as much as I did this year. When I first saw trailers for the film, I just sort of wrote it off as a mildly interesting take on the horror vampire genre. Then I went to see the movie in IMAX on 70 millimeters at […]
