A Review of "Lazer Team"
Rooster Teeth

The internet has taken to the Big Screen. Wednesday, Jan. 27 was opening day for Rooster Teeth's first movie, "Lazer Team." For those who may not know, Rooster Teeth is an internet-based company best known for the machinima "Red vs. Blue," as well as animated productions such as "RWBY" and "X-Ray and Vav,"live-action shorts and gameplays through branches like Achievement Hunter and Funhaus.

Almost two years ago, Rooster Teeth raised more than $2.6 million via an IndiGoGo campaign making the creation of the movie possible.

Burnie Burns, Michael Jones, Gavin Free, Colton Dunn, Alan Ritchson, and Alexandria DeBerry star as lead roles in the science fiction, action, comedy movie. Company-wide appearances are made throughout the movie, sometimes in an Easter egg-like fashion.

Hagan (Burns), Woody (Free), Zach (Jones), and Herman (Dunn) stumble upon a crashed UFO where a holographic alien gives news of an intergalactic battle that will take place in mere days. The four are taken away by the military where Adam (Ritchson), the champion of the Earth, has to train the quartet to learn everything he spent his entire life training for.

The foursome have to learn to work together in order to save the entire planet. This may sound easier than it is. Each having their own personal issues with one another; will that end up getting in the way of their success, or can they set aside their differences for the sake of humanity to become Lazer Team?

The unique film possesses no downtime. There's always something to laugh about or something action-based to keep your eyes fixated on the screen.

By far the best part of the movie was how geared it is specifically towards the community members. On multiple occasions, there are references to earlier content that left the entire audience howling with laughter.

I am so thankful that Rooster Teeth paired up with Tugg. Fans were able to create their own screening in towns that may not have already been scheduled for a showing. The screening I went to was completely sold out. Being able to watch a movie with close to 200 community members made the entire experience a memory that will last forever.

By far, one of the best movies I have seen in a long time. I immensely recommend any community member to see in theaters. It is so worth it. For any non-Rooster Teeth community members, as long as you love laughing and alien battles, this movie is definitely for you.

I can't wait until I see it again.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
