Elton John Biopic 'Rocketman' Trailers Are Clear For Takeoff

Elton John. We all know the name. From "Bennie And The Jets" to "Tiny Dancer," we all know his songs. Elton is a singer, pianist and composer. Having over 30 albums with 300 million records. He is one of the best-selling music artists in the world and now he's finally getting a biopic movie about him. "Rocketman" is set to be released on May 31st and stars Taron Egerton as the colorful lead role. The film will cover the artist's biggest breakthrough years from when he was just a piano prodigy to international superstar. "Rocketman's" release actually comes at a perfect time with its follow up to the box office bonanza to "Bohemian Rhapsody."

Alongside Taron is Jamie Bell as Bernie Taupin, Elton's lyricist and writing partner. Richard Madden as Elton's first manager, John Reid, and Bryce Dallas Howard as Elton's mother Sheila Farebrother.

In a new promotions video for the film, Dexter Fletcher the director of the film says that Taron is an actor of incredible range and only he can do a role like Elton John. The greatest quote from the teaser trailer comes from Giles Martin, the films music producer. He said, "Elton said I don't think I've ever heard anyone sing my songs better than Taron, and the great thing about Elton is that he wants Taron's interpretations of his songs." Taron will actually be singing in the film and if that doesn't get you excited I don't know what will. 2019 is full of highly anticipated films and this one is definitely up there.

More updates on the film we be out in future dates but make sure to check out the biopic on May 31st.

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.

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.
