Star Wars: Rogue One... Is It Out of This World?
VOX

Star Wars hits theaters again, but this time in a way no one imagined. With it's incredible and well fitting story line to it's quirky and sarcastic new robot, this movie blew my mind from beginning to end.

The movie takes place before Star Wars IV: A New Hope. In this movie we learn how the rebel alliance stole the blueprints of the Death Star and how they came to know all the flaws in it. It is up to a peculiar set of hero's to save the universe from the disastrous empire, and evil Lord Vader.

This movie brings together both the classic Star Wars and new 21st century Star Wars. It takes the universe we've come to know and love to a whole new orbit. Yes I must admit it was odd not to have the usual Star Wars introduction at the start of the movie, but seconds after I completely forgot and did not need an introduction because the movie showed it all.

It was incredible how the writers and director, Gareth Edwards brought together A New Hope and Rogue one and connected both movies in a way that could make people believe that Rogue one was written in the time A New Hope was. Everything made sense, and we even got to see some of our favorite classic characters that we had not seen in years; one which included my personal favorite, Darth Vader.

Vader was portrayed in such an badass way that any time he came out people in the audience couldn't help but gasp. Vader was the same old cunning, evil mastermind that many of us have come to appreciate as one of the greatest villains of all time. He stood out in the movie despite him being in only a few scenes and *SPOILER ALERT* his ending was MIND BLOWING. It was the bad ass side of Vader everyone wanted to see.

Felicity Jones who plays Jyn Eso the protagonist in this movie did an amazing role of playing a hero who gave no f*cks about the empire. She wanted to fight for what was right and so she did alongside her friends, one who happened to be blind.

The diversity in this movie was also very great. We had so many POC it was great to see. A cast so diverse always makes the movie better in my book.

The movie was well casted, well written, and in general was a well made movie. Disney continues to prove that the Star Wars franchise will never die, and even with movies like this, it can still be out of this world.

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.
